A quick definition of bredwite:

Term: BREDWITE

Definition: Bredwite is a punishment that was given in the past when someone did not follow the rules about how much bread they were supposed to make. It was a way to make sure that people were making enough bread and not cheating others by giving them less than they should.

A more thorough explanation:

BREDWITE

Bredwite (bred-wət) is a historical penalty for not following regulations regarding the weight or quantity of bread.

During medieval times, bakers were required to follow strict regulations when it came to the weight and quality of bread. If a baker was found to be selling bread that was underweight, they would be fined a bredwite. For example, if a baker was supposed to sell a loaf of bread that weighed 2 pounds but instead sold a loaf that weighed only 1.5 pounds, they would be fined a bredwite.

Another example of a bredwite would be if a baker was caught using subpar ingredients in their bread. For instance, if a baker was supposed to use high-quality flour but instead used a cheaper, lower-quality flour, they would be fined a bredwite.

These examples illustrate how bredwite was used as a penalty for bakers who did not follow regulations regarding the weight and quality of bread. It was a way to ensure that bakers were providing their customers with bread that was of a certain standard.

Help us make LSD better!
Tell us what's important to you
https://www.lsd.law/search/cV9E6 this is artificially deflated because it's only below your stats
someone got into harvard and chicago with your stats
15:19
Why is that deflating it? isnt that a better indicator instead of choosing above median LSATs? Genuinely curious just wondering
when stats are close because of the variability you want a little above your stats and a little below to get more data, adcoms arent so finnicky that 2 points on the lsat is make or break unless it puts you above median, and even then 50% are below median so it's not as big of an impact as you might think. the reason the chanceme tool goes a little above and below your stats by default is to capture a more accurate picture
ie your softs/WE/essays might make you more or less competitive than any random applicant and the best way to account for that is to take a little above and a little below
15:21
got it, I was of the mindset that medians are pretty concrete so taking a +2 LSAT score range was just giving me irrelevant data. Thank you
15:21
Def my softs/essays are the strongest part of my application so hoping they shine through
they kind of are but you see with the data here is doesnt really change your chances going from 172 to 170
yeah youll be in a good place for this cycle
15:22
yeah I guess thats true, I've also been looking at "Included" not "Only" for URM so maybe that's a diff too
15:22
Appreciate it man!
yeah included is giving you data for nURM which isnt relevant for your cycle
and ofc, good luck :)
