HolisticShakyBongo '22–'23 app cycle Class of 2026 class year

Trying to see how my chances are blanketing as many schools as possible, since a 168 and 3.98 is kind of an awkward score. I have written why essays for all T20s, minus NU and opted out of interview at NU which I am kicking my self for.

Interview WUSTL 11/9, UR immediately after.

Highly recommend giving your self enough time to have applications mostly prewritten, and I wish I retook the LSAT at least once.

Mentioned very briefly why NYU in personal statement. Wrote a pretty bad why duke and chicago, mediocre Cornell. Tried to be unique in my Stanford essays by trying to be funny. Feel I had great optionals for Mich, Berk, & Unique top 10 for Georgetown. Poured my heart out in my Why UVA

Feel free to DM any questions!

My date disappeared at GULC the Friday within the hour after my interview. Hoping I did well considering I was able to make Dean Andy laugh (Apparently not hard enough). Interviewed on 12/16

12/21 moved from ED to RD at Columbia

12/21 Moved from RD to ED at Penn

1/15/23 UR3 @ BU

1/16/23 UR4 @ BU

1/19/23 change on Penn but can’t figure out what? Was not just the weird confirmation bug.
