In 1998 I asked law schools, "Is your wait list review triggered by a big seat deposit or other event, and if so, when?" These are the answers I received. The few schools not on the list were not interviewed -- probably because they and I did not wind up at the same Law Forum.
Remember that this year may be different from last year, and that a school may review and decide not to call anyone. Worse yet, they may decide to call someone besides you. But this will give you a sense of how long at minimum you'll have to wait.
