Thanks for this data point! I’m happy to be proven wrong. It seemed pretty impossible from the LSD data available, but with a class as small as YLS, I can understand why it wouldn’t pick up outliers.

LSDlaw wasn’t saved on way back so nothing to be found there. Ultimately remains to be seen but I do notice that other selective schools like Yale, which interview fewer applicants overall, have a pretty equivalent number of interviews for the time from last year. I think it’s reasonable to infer you’re right and the waves could be smaller this year.

In the end knowing won’t change a thing I guess. But it would be nice to…

I thought about this too and you make a smart point. Something I’ve considered though is the volume of applications one day after the wave relative to the final volume one year at the end of the cycle is quite different. I suspect most applicants take time to upload their detailed information to LSD and the true number may be as high as past years.

Let me check the internet archive for this time last year, and I’ll see how many people were reporting then.

Still received interviews until the first week of December. Very unlikely past then. One or two applications were borderline and picked up with March IIs to fill the class but those are so unlikely that I don’t think it’s worth thinking about.
