Dear fellows,

The past months were tough, no doubting it. Applications opened in September and we had to get everything done by December 1st: Toefl, transcripts, ranking statements, recommendation letters, résumé, personal statement, LSAC, FedEx... And many of us were doing all that not for the first time!

Then the waiting began. Our tension receded a bit during holidays but resumed no sooner than 2010 had dawned. The last few days were especially awful. We looked at the calendar and couldn't believe we had reached "late March" but still got no news. Page refreshing, email checking and board posting every other minute ensued. We were sure decisions were about to come out.

And then all of a sudden it all came to an end - joyful to some, sad to others.

After such tiring time has passed, I decided to set up this thread with a view to the future. I would like us to have an opportunity to socialize with those who will be our classmates for a whole year and to share experiences and expectations. I've also created a Facebook group called "Harvard LL.M. Class of 2011". Please do sign up!

Congratulations to all of us who have made it to Harvard! I'm looking forward to meeting you in August!

So true. Finally, Harvard has answered the ultimate question: What does "By late March" mean, Harvard?" (http://www.llm-guide.com/board/83846). We all know now, that "by late March" means 22 March.

Thanks for creating the Facebook group. There's another one on lawyrs: http://www.lawyrs.net/groups/243/harvard-llm-class-of-2011

See you around!
