Be honest...

Also - got the UVA fee waiver last week but not Duke
NaturalKindBarnacle
2:53
@cryptanon: i like the update a lot, but i have noticed a couple bugs if you
have a running list.
NaturalKindBarnacle
2:54
1. all statuses for my schools expand whenever i change anything in any school
(ie adding a complete date)
NaturalKindBarnacle
2:54
2. graphs default to harvard from last cycle
NaturalKindBarnacle
2:54
3. abbreviations don't work like they used to (can't search asu, ucla nyu etc)
NaturalKindBarnacle
2:55
4. drop down menus open on click, but to type in a query you have to click again
in a different search bar
NaturalKindBarnacle
2:56
minor things but overall the new update looks very clean. sorry to drop all of
these at once lol
cryptanon
7:52
@NaturalKindBarnacle: this feedback is great!
cryptanon
7:53
1. is this still happening? 2. i'll update this so it defaults to the user's top
choice. 3&4. will fix
TryingNotToObsess
9:46
@NotTodaySatan: generally, people say that to get the benefits of applying
early, you should apply before Thanksgiving. So December I would say is on the
cusp, but I wouldn't say it's "too late"!
TriteNoiselessHavanese
9:57
Does Emory send a confirmation email that they received your application?
MagnificentBrightHare
10:35
Yes - check your promotional folder that's where mine went
MagnificentBrightHare
10:35
Because it's someone's name in the email address not admissions@whatever
TriteNoiselessHavanese
11:01
Thanks @magnificentbrighthare
TriteNoiselessHavanese
11:02
how quickly did yours arrive? I applied last night
MagnificentBrightHare
11:41
I applied on the 5th and got my received and complete on the 8th
letstrythisagain
13:25
does anyone know how to add an app for 2021-22 cycle after applying to same
school last cycle? Gives me an error and says I already have the school listed.
MagnificentBrightHare
13:47
I just deleted my old ones but when I set up my status checker it shows both
cycles on the drop down
NaturalKindBarnacle
14:27
@cryptanon: 1 is not happening anymore! thanks for the quick reply - i use the
site so much and its looking awesome!
cryptanon
14:28
i'm glad it's working :)
cryptanon
14:28
@MagnificentBrightHare: can you say more or send a screenshot of this "when I
set up my status checker it shows both cycles on the drop down" to
hello@lsd.law?
cryptanon
14:30
do you mean that the *school* status checker shows both cycles, which is
reflected in your LSD profile when you click "check statuses"?
MagnificentBrightHare
15:15
@cryptanon: yeah so for U Penn I applied last year and got rejected and now that
I put my new app in they gave me the same status checker login info and there
are taps on the status checker page that show 2021 and 2022. When I click plus
on U Penn it shows both and sometimes it'll flip my result to rejected
cryptanon
15:36
ooo, i will fix that
SecurityMatters
16:31
Has anyone gotten status checker messages from Columbia, UMich or UMinn?
abjectchickadee
16:49
The application confirmation email from Mich says we won't be getting status
checkers for a while—October, probably
NotTodaySatan
18:16
thank you for the advice @tryingnottoobsess much appreciated!
blinky07

anyone else unable to add some schools? when I try to add emory I get an
"invalid" error
JeetYet
10:35
@blinky07: im having the same issue
cryptanon
10:42
@blinky07: fixed
cryptanon
11:27
@MagnificentBrightHare: i think i've solved the issue of scraping last year's
app status, can you please confirm?
sheare
14:50
I have the same issue at @MagnificentBrightHare, and the issue is still
appearing
cryptanon
15:56
@sheare: should be fixed now! try again and let me know
sheare
16:06
So now, my NYU reapplication is showing 2022 stuff, but UPenn's is showing that
user credentials are invalid even though I logged in with the same UN & password
combo manually through their portal
sheare
16:06
hm I'll fiddle around and see if the issue is on my end
cryptanon
16:16
if you're sure the login is correct, try waiting a little bit. LSAC status
checkers act weird if you log in too frequently. that's why LSD has a 20 minute
cooldown
sheare
20:12
Okay it looks like it's fixed
sheare
20:13
The only one that is still off is GWU since in their email, it looks like
they're using LSAC's status checker?
MagnificentBrightHare
7:41
@crytanon Most of my status checkers look like they are correct in only showing
this years' status now but U Penn is still registering my 2021 status and keeps
flipping red even when I manually put it in as pending. It may be because the
status checker tabs on their status shows 2021 automatically and you have to
toggle to 2022 whereas NYU is the reverse of that and the status checker drop
down on LSData now only shows 2022
MagnificentBrightHare
7:41
@cryptanon:
MachoOutgoingLoon
8:31
Most of my statuses are flipping red even with no change. Not a reapp
cryptanon
10:23
@MachoOutgoingLoon: probably happened because i changed the format of how
statuses are displayed, and the bot caught that 'change'. shouldn't happen again
HopefulSplitter167
14:35
Do admissions counselors use the lsat score band?what is its purpose?
littleleafloaf
15:36
what is the correct format to add sent/received dates? I keep trying but it says
all of my formats are invalid.
NaturalKindBarnacle
15:54
has anyone successfully gotten a georgetown fee waiver? mine was approved but it
won't show up in my application
cryptanon
17:35
@littleleafloaf: there should be a little calendar that helps you input dates?
but if that doesn't work then try MM-DD-YYYY
littleleafloaf
21:35
@cryptanon thank you! i think it was an issue with my using the Safari browser
SpicyMushyEel
11:05
anyone get a michigan status checker yet
SpicyMushyEel
11:05
i got a received email but no status checker login
SpicyMushyEel
11:05
applied last week
WillTrumanJr
13:13
Are schools straightforward in saying which LSAT scores they consider when
looking at an app (in terms of most recent vs. highest score)? I scored lower on
the August exam than I did on the January exam and just want to know before
spending a small fortune on applications again.
cryptanon
14:01
schools look at the highest score
blinky07
17:00
anyone else misd the chaos of lsdata chat? i remember it getting crazy around
December/February... it was enjoyable
MagnificentBrightHare
19:42
yessss it was fast and distracting and I loved it
SpicyMushyEel
20:34
any consultants give any opinions whether this cycle will be more or less
competitive?
WillTrumanJr
21:41
I've seen a lot of people say "Ask schools for fee waivers. Most schools will
give them to you." Do do you just email a school's general admissions address
and ask or what?
abjectchickadee
23:15
@blinky07: patiently waiting for like november when more people have their apps
in and the chat returns to its former chaotic glory
abjectchickadee
9:07
Also, does anyone know why Vandy doesn't want you to request an interview if
you're applying ED to another school? If I don't request an interview for this
reason, is it going to hurt my chances?
HomeyOutrageousAntibodies
9:22
Vandy's alumni interview is mostly just a way to sell YOU on the SCHOOL, not the
other way around. They don't want to waste their time setting up their very busy
alumni only to be told "whoops sorry I just got into ABC school and can't do
this interview anymore", ya know?
RusticHomelyWasp
9:50
I need help guys
abjectchickadee
10:22
@HomeyOutrageousAntibodies: that makes sense haha, I'm just worried that they'll
be all "ooo she wants some school so bad she'll pay $300K to attend" and view my
app unfavourably lmao
MaidenofMayhem
10:47
Anyone know if we can add additional application cycles yet?
sheare
11:02
hey, wanted to let peeps know that Columbia is just now sending out emails that
files are complete/received!
sheare
11:02
I know that's been worrying for some folks that sent applications two weeks ago
NameNotImportant
11:29
If people are worried 14 days after the start of the cycle, it's going to be a
long year for them.
sheare
12:21
I've been saying for the past two years that the subreddit is a place where
those with functional anxiety congregate lmaooo
Lost-In-The-Sauce
12:52
For those of you who have been through the process, how did you remain sane
while waiting?
abjectchickadee
13:20
you don't
abjectchickadee
13:21
staying off the sub once you have your apps in helps
NameNotImportant
13:34
Yeah, once your apps are in,
NameNotImportant
13:35
just designate a day every week (mine is friday at 5pm PST) where you come on
here and check your status checker
NameNotImportant
13:39
but it really seemed like emails came out pretty quick, so I would just make
sure you check your email every day towards the end of the day, especially the
junk. This site didn't tell me the results before my email ever did and the
timing of my decisions didnt really match up with any of my application
time-twins
SpicyMushyEel
14:37
anyone have any news from michigan apps getting received and completed?
MomentousIntelligentHimalayan
15:12
Michigan sent me an email when I applied confirming they got it and saying that
they wouldn't be sending a status checker until sometime in October.
SecurityMatters
16:08
Anyone get a receipt/complete message or status checker information from UMinn?
OldYetYoung
16:11
Shout out to ASU for making one week decisions. Just FYI everyone, worth a shot
to try them.
AromaticYieldingSquid
16:45
I'm def overthinking this but i received an "application received" email from
one school yesterday and about an hour ago i just got another one??? is this
concerning or just an error sending twice somehow
pinkditor
16:55
how big a deal is getting an unsolicited fee waiver from a school
sheare
17:04
@AromaticYieldingSquid: Definitely overreacting. It was prob a miscommunication
thing, and they thought they didn't send you it or something
sheare
17:05
@pinkditor: I mean, it's not a guaranteed acceptance
AromaticYieldingSquid
17:07
@sheare: okay thank you fhdjsk i think i just kinda needed to hear it from
someone else, it's very easy to get inside your own head and overthink things
during this process
sheare
17:31
I relate. Do yourself a favor and get yourself a therapist for this cycle, if
you can hahaha
ReverseSplitterDreaming
17:38
Is there any reason why an RD applicant would go UR after me but get a decision
before me?
ReverseSplitterDreaming
17:50
I'm also RD
sheare
17:58
Who knows? The ad comms are juggling so many apps around, and that renders the
UR indicators as speculative at best
CravenSkinnyHavanese
18:36
what does ur mean
CravenSkinnyHavanese
18:36
under review?
ReverseSplitterDreaming
18:38
Yeah I'm hoping it's just a "that's just how things happen sometimes"
ReverseSplitterDreaming
18:38
Yes UR is under review

Will applying in December put me at disadvantage? I’m considering retaking LSAT
4th time. Have gotten 160 twice and first one was canceled
sheare
7:43
@NaturalKindBarnacle: I would send them a quick email or call.
sheare
7:43
They've been pretty quick about sending received/completed emails
sheare
7:44
@WhimsicalComplexTuatara: Are your practice tests higher? December isn't a bit
later than ideal, but one extra point is worth it.
sheare
7:44

HexagonSquare
12:12
@WhimsicalComplexTuatara: I'm also debating whether to take October or November,
I feel like Nov I'd be more prepared but I don't want to apply so late
SecurityMatters
12:22
@NaturalKindBarnacle: Yes, I applied the morning of 02SEP and got a receipt
email that afternoon.
SecurityMatters
12:32
For anyone who applied to Minnesota, I emailed their admissions office and they
said they're experiencing delays in responding to applications due issues with
their new database.

13:33
Round 2 law school apps let's do this!!!
NaturalKindBarnacle
13:56
@SecurityMatters: and in your status checker did you see all items were checked?
crocluvr19
14:43
should i be worried i havent gotten status checkers from several schools i
applied to on 9/10?
SpicyMushyEel
15:01
always take when you're more prepared IMO
SpicyMushyEel
15:01
3-5pts can be the difference between 0 dollars and 100k scholarship
somethingspecial
15:25
from what I'm reading applying in December shouldn't hurt you too much just make
sure you have everything else in your app ready to go. Last year I had hangup
after hangup and got pushed to apply at the very end of the cycle so I decided
to pull my apps and try this year instead

anyone else getting the "unknown error" for HLS?

HereticalColdAntibodies
9:39
thanks @cryptanon! Can you make it so that I can leave "first choice school"
blank? I don't love that there is no option for "blank" so it is currently
sitting on golden gate
HereticalColdAntibodies

Petree
10:04
Does anyone know anything about St. John's video interview?
cryptanon
10:08
@HereticalWarmAntibodies: so it wouldn't show up in your profile at all?
abjectchickadee
10:46
@cryptanon: I think a couple schools (I've noticed this w usc and washu) have
changed their status checker systems? Like instead of logging via a separate
status check username and password, the status checker link takes you to the
LSAC login page and you have to log in with your LSAC account
Petree
10:47
@allymcbeal: Hey there! They said that they'd be open October 1st.
abjectchickadee
10:48
idk if anyone else has noticed that change w some schools' status checkers
ponderosa
10:48
yeah I think it's a new thing, kinda interesting. You just login with your LSAC
instead of making a dedicated login for the school
ponderosa
10:49
I think its kinda weird though because GWU can't even get it to work lol
abjectchickadee
10:49
have you figured out how to configure it on lsd? i haven't been able to!
ponderosa
10:50
nope but I also haven't really tried so probably not the best data point. I've
been doing those ones manually
cryptanon
12:54
@abjectchickadee: thanks for the heads up, i'll update the bots for those
schools
NameNotImportant
14:45
Im pretty convinced they made that switch because of these automated checker
sites
SpicyMushyEel
15:32
anyone go UR at Chicago
cryptanon
16:12
maybe, but it'd be far easier and more effective to add a captcha to the login
page. could just be LSAC trying to improve and streamline the experience
eastcoasthopeful

Anyone else have their Wash U interview today?
ReverseSplitterDreaming
13:10
ASU status checker reported a change but the status still is UR. Any reason
behind that?
crocluvr19
13:56
im confused... ive been looking at the recent decision list and people are
saying they're getting in at UVA and UGA and when I click on their profile it
says school year 2021-2022 but some people have their sent dates as sep 4 and
then other schools at dec 4... does the 2021-2022 mean last cycle or this cycle?
JoyousCeruleanHummingbird
13:59
Some people made mistakes in setting up their cycle apps
JoyousCeruleanHummingbird
13:59
2021-2022 is this cycle. Some people just accidentally put in their dates for
last cycle this year
crocluvr19
14:02
thank you!
Hamotron
14:08
@ReverseSplitterDreaming: It probably means you went UR2. Did the status date
change?
ReverseSplitterDreaming
14:25
Yes it changed to today. I didn’t know
ReverseSplitterDreaming
14:25
Oops. I didn’t know that ASU did UR2!
blinky07
15:05
happened to me too 4 days after I went UR @reversesplitterdreaming

abjectchickadee
22:58
I went UR2 today too! I'd forgotten the feeling of getting a status update lmao
JoyousCeruleanHummingbird
23:33
Me too! Also went UR2 at UVA today.
JoyousCeruleanHummingbird
23:34
I just went UR1 on the 13th so I’m a little…concerned but hey, gotta chase those
status change highs!
MagnificentBrightHare
6:16
I went UR2 at UVA yesterday too
abjectchickadee
10:35
I went UR1 on the 15th so it seems like Complete-UR1-UR2 moves pretty quickly
this early in the cycle
JoyousCeruleanHummingbird
10:46
oooh, that's good to hear! I applied in Dec last cycle so things were not moving
this quickly haha
songtoaseagull
16:05
is it a good sign if you move quickly to UR2? or does it matteR?
crocluvr19
16:55
What does UR2 mean?
sheare
11:11
@crocluvr19: So when you go to the status checker, there is a status type you'll
receive called "Under Review"
sheare
11:11
It'll switch to it when your application is considered complete and undergoing
review by the admissions committee
sheare
11:12
And you'll typically get a date associated with the status change. For example,
let's say you went UR on 9/16
sheare
11:12
UR2 is when you're still Under Review but the date changes
sheare
11:13
It's speculated to be that your application has moved further along in the
review process, went to a second ad comm, is prepared to make a decision soon,
etc.
jberg
17:59
is it possible to search by ED or do we have to do that manually?
whyisthelsatsohard
22:10
so i submitted my apps today and am so confused on how to check status and link
that to here, like do schools send an email with the log-in?
JoyousCeruleanHummingbird
23:13
@whyisthelsatsohard: congrats!! so yes, schools will send you an email with your
log-in info. it might take a while for some schools, so don't get worried! i
know for example that I think Mich said they wouldn't be sending out status
checkers until October
JoyousCeruleanHummingbird
23:14
heads up too that some schools don't use status checkers!
abjectchickadee
9:32
ok so I wrote a one-page Why Notre Dame essay but now I'm looking at the

but I think 1 page is fine
abjectchickadee
9:43
hopefully they think i'm enthusiastic AND concise
JoyousCeruleanHummingbird
10:36
I think 1 pg is totally fine
somethingspecial
12:10
Half the schools say "you have this amount of space but really we LOOOOVE
concise writers." so as long as you felt like you got your point across then I
wouldn't sweat the 1 pg part
