A quick definition of academy:

Academy: A place where people go to learn more about a specific subject. It can be a college, a group of experts who share knowledge, or a private high school. The word comes from a garden in Greece where a famous philosopher named Plato taught his students.

A more thorough explanation:

An academy is a type of institution that can have different meanings:

  1. An academy can be a college or university where people go to study and learn at a higher level than high school.
  2. An academy can also be an organization that is dedicated to advancing knowledge in a specific field. For example, the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers is an organization that helps lawyers who specialize in family law.
  3. Another type of academy is a private high school. These schools are usually smaller and more specialized than public high schools.
  4. Finally, the word "academy" can also refer to a specific school of philosophy that was led by Plato in ancient Greece. This school was located in a garden near Athens.

Examples:

  • Harvard University is an example of an academy where students can go to study at a higher level than high school.
  • The National Academy of Sciences is an organization that is dedicated to advancing knowledge in the field of science.
  • Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts is an example of a private high school.
  • The Academy of Athens was the school of philosophy that was led by Plato in ancient Greece.

These examples illustrate the different meanings of the word "academy." Depending on the context, it can refer to a college or university, an organization, a high school, or a specific school of philosophy.

im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
