A quick definition of delinquent:

Delinquent: When someone doesn't do something they were supposed to do, it's called being delinquent. This can mean not paying money that they owe, like rent or taxes, or doing something that is against the law, like committing a crime.

A more thorough explanation:

The word delinquent can have different meanings in the context of law:

When a person or entity fails to fulfill an obligation, they are considered delinquent. For example:

  • A tenant who doesn't pay their rent on time is delinquent in rental payments.
  • A company that doesn't repay a loan on time is delinquent in loan repayments.

These examples illustrate how a person or entity can be considered delinquent for not fulfilling their financial obligations.

A person who commits a crime is also considered delinquent. For example:

  • A teenager who steals from a store is a juvenile delinquent.
  • An adult who commits fraud is a delinquent.

These examples show how a person who breaks the law can be labeled as delinquent.

An obligation that is past due or unperformed is also considered delinquent. For example:

  • A tax that hasn't been paid on time is a delinquent tax.
  • A payment that hasn't been made on time is a delinquent payment.

These examples demonstrate how an obligation that is not fulfilled on time can be considered delinquent.

I told my family I won’t get any decisions until 2025 so they wouldn’t bombard me hahah
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+
this is like the schizophrenic posts JJK tik tok be putting out

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
