Yep, same.
I still get the feeling that emailing isn't the right move yet. Does anybody disagree?
No I agree. I'm in the same boat. Are you two splitters? Because if you are that would explain it. I haven't seen many splitters get their decisions yet regardless of when they applied

Myself and at least one other splitter I’m aware of were waitlisted last week. I applied the day the application opened and interviewed in October.

I’m also a splitter, and I have been ghosted since my interview.

I'm actually not a splitter. My numbers are pretty much exactly at both medians.

Also a splitter. Applied end of October and it’s been 8 weeks since my interviewer submitted my review. Mylsn gave me a 75% chance, but I’m starting to think the silence might be a sign of an incoming Waitlistng.

It seems like *most* people on here are getting ghosted, which I take to mean none of us actually are and that they’re just waiting to release larger pools of decisions. They probably saw a large increase in apps and are waiting for all December applicants/LSAT takers to send. Hopefully we’ll get a wave later this month but it seems to me from this forum and others that radio silence has been the norm this cycle

I've been ghosted too. Trying to keep the faith but I feel like a waitlist or a ding is approaching the longer it takes.

Same even though I've only been silent since 12/4. Interviewed and visited about six wks before that. Guess I need to be more patient given how long yall have been waiting...

Yeah... I've been sitting at complete since 10/10. Interviewed at the end of October. It's absolutely brutal.

What do we think the effect of not having interviewed is on an applicant? I didn't have an LSAT score until December to even know if I would have a legitimate application.

i didn't schedule one, either. i wrote a "why vanderbilt" to hopefully compensate for it. that's what the admissions office suggested when i asked if i could still schedule an interview

I'm in the same boat as lots of you! Interviewed in late October and have been complete since 12/4. Does the status switch to "under review" at any point?

I didn't interview or write a Why Vanderbilt and got in! I also waited until after the interview deadline to apply, I'm thinking it doesn't get held against you as much if you don't apply until then!

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
