adscriptus

Read a random definition: separate offense

A quick definition of adscriptus:

Adscriptus: A word from Roman law that means someone who is added or registered in writing. It can also refer to someone who is bound to the land as a tenant or serf. In the past, if the land was sold, the serfs were sold with it, but they were still considered free citizens in other ways.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Adscriptus (ad-skrip-tus) is a Latin term used in Roman law. It refers to something that is added, annexed, or bound by or in writing. It can also mean enrolled or registered.

There are two main uses of the term:

  1. Bound, as in servus colonae adscriptus (a tenant bound to an estate as a cultivator) or fundus adscriptus (an estate bound to or burdened with a duty).
  2. Adscriptus glebae (a tenant or serf bound to the land).

For example, if a person was a servus colonae adscriptus, they were a tenant who was bound to an estate as a cultivator. This means that they were required to work on the estate and could not leave without permission. Similarly, if an estate was fundus adscriptus, it was burdened with a duty, such as paying taxes or providing military service.

Another example is adscriptus glebae, which refers to a tenant or serf who was bound to the land. This means that they were not free to leave the land and had to work for the owner of the land. If the land was sold, the tenant or serf was sold along with it.

These examples illustrate how adscriptus was used in Roman law to describe things that were bound or attached to something else. It was often used to describe people who were bound to a particular place or duty.

@texaslawhopefully: oh I’m not sure hahaha im just basing off of my friend who got a tutor bc she was rly struggling and it seemed like it helped her!
Yeah, that's fair! For some people it can help a lot. I'm just saying in general I don't think it is necessary unless you are trying to finetune a very specific area (or get to the high 170s because that is another thing in and of itself) OR are just terrible at the test. I tutor the test and I find that most people can improve just as much through self-study.

i think for her it was a lack of discipline more than anything else tbh. she could not get herself to meaningfully study on her own

I've finished all my major requirements, so I'm taking pretty much all electives next semester. Keeping one major specific class bc I'm majoring in it for a reason haha. But I'll be pretty free to study and try and improve my GPA. I will try self study first, see where that gets me. If that doesn't work I'll look into tutoring!
the way there probs won't be another wave until after thanksgiving LMFAO
i hate this

most of the stuff a tutor will teach you is stuff you can figure out yourself if you’re sufficiently motivated. if you would benefit from some support and structure tutoring can be helpful

I'm in a dual degree program that my undergraduate has where if you meet a gpa and percentile you can have your senior year be your L1 ! Cuts off a year of time and money and the partner was my top pick for law anyways. It all just worked out and since it's ED can't really apply anywhere else because the L1 transfers back to complete my degree. :)

oh that’s nice! I guess you have a high degree of certainty about the process then
