Re: question related to impact on Waitlist

I would think that this would have a relatively little impact on your chances off the WL. and if they ask you about it during the interview you can explain it was difficult to maintain at this time but that you wish to explore opening it again in the future or you are committed to doing the same type of work after law school. not a big deal I think

i think they put me on WL due to this soft (have below median numbers). I can't help but think I may be shooting myself in the foot

any other thoughts that can clarify this?

Not to shoot down your hopes, because it's certainly possible you could get off the WL, but the T6 all use their WL pretty extensively as soft rejections, so just keep that in mind.

If you get the interview and it somehow comes up, just answer the question honestly and show it was a difficult decision that had to be made. It won't reflect negatively on you.
