A quick definition of accedas ad curiam:

Accedas ad curiam: This is a fancy Latin phrase that means "you are to go to the court." It was used in the past to refer to a legal document that allowed a replevin action to be moved from a feudal court to a royal court. Basically, it was a way to get a fairer trial. Think of it like asking a teacher to move you to a different group if you feel like you're not being treated fairly in your current group.

A more thorough explanation:

Accedas ad curiam

Accedas ad curiam is a legal term that means "you are to go to the court." It was used in the past as an original writ for removing a replevin action to a royal court from either of two feudal courts, a court baron or a hundred court. It is a recordare facias loquelam for replevin actions.

An example of accedas ad curiam would be if a person filed a replevin action in a feudal court, but the other party wanted to move the case to a royal court. They would then use the accedas ad curiam writ to request that the case be moved to the royal court.

Another example would be if a person was unhappy with the decision made in a feudal court and wanted to appeal to a higher court. They could use the accedas ad curiam writ to request that the case be moved to a royal court for a new trial.

These examples illustrate how accedas ad curiam was used in the past to move legal cases from lower feudal courts to higher royal courts for a fairer trial.

Jackfrost has a point though, a good way to stand out with your apps is to do as much "optional" stuff as possible, including the interview

Defining “postmodernism” is a daunting task. One commentator has likened it to “trying to nail gelatin to a wall.” Part of the difficulty is postmodernism’s heterogeneity. As Angela Harris has noted, “There are as many different definitions of postmodernism as there are postmodernists.”
