Submitted my application (fast track) over the weekend. I'm between the median and 75th percentiles in both GPA and LSAT (based on last year's numbers). I haven't gotten any confirmation from BC, but my app status on the LSAC website says "complete" so I guess I'm starting the waiting game now.

Good luck everyone!

Yeah, really I was just paranoid there was something horribly wrong with my application, personal statement, etc. Now that I've got my first acceptance, I can be a little less neurotic.

Congrats everyone! Got my status checker email overnight, but I'm trying not to obsess since apparently it could be a week or more. When you're referring to "Day 10" of waiting, are you including weekends or just business days? Not sure if it matters, just curious.

CONGRATS! I went under review on 11/10 so I'm hoping for that kind of turnaround time!

I think they will email you when they received your application. The email includes status checker info that you can use to check whether your application is complete or not.

Congratulations! If you don't mind, would you (and really anyone who has been accepted) PM me your stats? I'll probably be waiting for another week so I'm curious to see how I stack up.

Hey all. Just discovered this board and wanted to chime in since I am also in the same boat. UR since 10/24. To add to the pain, I was admitted last year but had to pass it up because I am in the Navy (service obligations, uncertainty, and a very long story prevented me from deferring). Anyway, good luck to everyone!
