Congratulations, that's awesome. You must feel, at the least, really relieved.
The school I chose ended up being the first one that got back to me, so hopefully things work out just as well for you.
I've spent 12 hours studying for exams today. Oy.

Yeah, what a huge relief. My first realistic choice (my first choice I actually applied to) was the first to accept. It takes the pressure off, and then when scholarship stuff comes in, you feel like you're on the good end of a bidding war.

I know the feeling 1.5-2pots per day minimum..
Civpro on Thursday and I'm done.
That thing you said (was it you?) about working to death the second year was dead on.
This appellate brief/oral arguments project thing left me completely blindsided during finals. Also, what you said about the 10th circuit rules whenever that was.. I agree. The brief was for the 10th circuit. The 10th circuit does a lot of unnecessary things to the appellant, then requires not as much from the appellee AND gives them 5 more pages.

GOD law school is so lame sometimes. I had the same problem - did my appellate brief, did well, did my oral arguments, did well...and then realized I had 5 finals left.

CivPro on Monday and I'm done. I think I'm doing well, but I'm just stressing myself out and ready for this exam period to be over.

Finished finals last night. I'm here at work staring at a massive pile of things left undone on my desk.. It's difficult to motivate myself to do anything productive right now though..

Congrats adpiucf!
Unlike the rest of these folks, I actually chose the last school that accepted me (for a various number of reasons, PM me if you really care)...but I would've happily gone to the first couple of schools I heard from. I had actually gone on vacation for a while right when things started coming back, so I came back from vacation and found 3 acceptances in my mailbox. What happiness that was!
It is always nice to know though that you're going to law school somewhere.
Thankfully I'm done with actual exams from the semester (stop throwing things at me!)--BUT I still have a 20 min. presentation to give and a 20 pg. paper to write so sadly the 'fun' ain't over yet .
Good luck to everyone finishing up!
