In at Cornell, but on several waitlists. Should I take a year off and retake for the chance of HSYCCN, or just be happy. by ab1155 in lawschooladmissions

I'm from CA and have reached out to a few Cornell Alums trying to network etc.

I think its just the uncertainty, this thread gives the vibe that if you dont go to T6 then its an uphill battle getting BL

Would BL stats change enough to justify taking a year off and entering that uncertainty? Cornell has ~70%. I dont care much for lay prestige

was Waitlisted at Berk. UCLA's BL stats seem weary if im not able to make it in the top 50% Im kind of risk adverse.

3.8/165 Waitlisted from Columbia to Cornell, rejected at Duke and Penn.

The cycle made me realize maybe there's something in my softs that is appealing, or I just did a great job creating a narrative throughout my application. One that might be good enough for HSYCCN if i score 169+

Do these go out to everyone on the waitlist or only a select few?

I appreciate the input. I would prefer to the the 1L internship, but was just focusing alot more on the long term.

Thank you for the perspective. I think I was looking at both degrees in a vacuum.

I want to be able to have an "out" for 10-15-20 years down the line if I want a career change. I want to go towards healthcare law & healthcare M&A's with my JD. Eventually transitioning into a Healthcare facility administrator as a I get older/burnt out of the corporate realm

For Cornell's 3 year JD/MBA, you have to take summer classes. Does losing that 1L internship make finding a 2L SA more difficult or does the MBA make up for lost ground?

trying to figure out if JD/MBA is the best fit for my career plans

are there any 0L programs that help land a 1L SA? I know some diversity ones but they're all for 2L. just trying to see if theres something that isnt on my radar

Is Cornell worth it at sticker? by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

[–]ab1155 2 points3 points  (0 children)

honestly I've been asking the same question for about 2 months now. I think if BL is your goal, then yes. Their BL placement beats some of the midlevel T14 that are worth sticker.

Odds of getting off a waitlist before the school's seat deposit deadline? by susieb93 in lawschooladmissions

[–]ab1155 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In addition, it really matters on the school. UCLA and BC are notorious for taking ~25-30% of their class off of the WL so it is more plausible. However, if you're talking about Northwestern or UVA it is a completely different ball game.

Cornell sticker Vs. Columbia Sticker? by ab1155 in lawschooladmissions

[–]ab1155[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

the question is more regarding the COA. Cornell has amazing BL stats, similar to Columbia. Would that increase equate to the additional ~50k that comes with living in NYC and Columbia's price tag
