correction

Read a random definition: first degree murder

A quick definition of correction:

Correction: When something is wrong, we try to make it right. This is called a correction. It can be as simple as fixing a mistake on a paper or as big as changing the way a business works. Sometimes, when people do something wrong, they have to go to a special place to learn how to be better. This is called a correctional facility.

A more thorough explanation:

A correction is the act of fixing something that is wrong or mistaken. It can also refer to a change in business activity or market price that counteracts a previous increase or decrease. In addition, it can refer to the punishment and treatment of a criminal offender through a program of imprisonment, parole, and probation.

  • When a teacher marks a student's paper and makes changes to the mistakes, they are making corrections.
  • If the stock market experiences a sudden drop in prices, a correction may occur where the prices go back up to counteract the decrease.
  • The Department of Corrections is responsible for punishing and rehabilitating criminal offenders through imprisonment, parole, and probation.

These examples illustrate the different ways in which the term "correction" can be used. In the first example, a correction is made to fix a mistake. In the second example, a correction is a change that counteracts a previous change. In the third example, a correction is a punishment and treatment for criminal behavior.

no i think there should be a Law School combine with all new drills except there is still the 40 yard dash
and a sub 4.5 gets you into any t14
LSAT can be one of the drills

So all the D1 athletes will get into a T-14. What else is new?
@TheAdoptedOne: that is called "Dean Poker Night" lol
@ClockworkBlue: I feel like most people could train for the 40 for the same amount of time as they do the LSAT and get close to sub 5 which would be equivalent to a 167+

@ClockworkBlue: god I hope that's true
if the country was run the same as Mich Law it would be a better place
Imagine if election night was run by an adcom? Like, "yep, we could get the results Friday, or June 2025."
imagine if it was like Berkley applications

I have no idea why people have so much beef w berkeley's app
I've been reading a bit about "herding," which is this idea that pollsters are making the race look tied so they look right no matter who wins.

Like... it's a more involved app but you don't have to do it? They're clearly trying to have some self-selection go on
I 100% agree with the self selection, I also am not even close to touching the medians there. However I think the huge PS plus the video and especially the very specific criteria for the why Berkeley essay is pretty crazy
