Below both medians - between 25/50 percentiles.

But I have extremely strong softs, so that has been helpful for some of the schools I've applied to.

gotcha. In a pretty similar situation (minus the softs), below LSAT and slightly above GPA.

Dinged. Got the email about 20 minutes ago, UR1 - 2/8, UR2 - 3/14. Better luck to the rest of the crowd with those dates.

Just got dinged via email. First rejection of the cycle. It would sting more if I wasn't having an amazing time at the UVA ASW right now. Best of luck to all else still waiting.

UR1 2/15, UR2 3/10. Reverse splitter.

Did your status stay at UR2? Or did it go to Decision Finalized or something?

Waitlisted today. Submitted 12/28, UR1 2/08, UR2 3/17, notified of decision 3/18. LSAT <25%, GPA a tad below median. Softs relatively strong I guess, but no "Why Duke" essay.

So... What does everyone think it means if you're still standing and applied late December?

Anyone else still at UR1? I've been sitting there since 2/15. Pretty much expecting a ding at this point. :(
