A quick definition of dependent contract:

A dependent contract is an agreement between two or more parties that creates obligations that can be enforced by law. It can be a written document or a verbal agreement. The parties involved have certain rights and duties that they must fulfill. A contract can be defined as a promise or set of promises that the law recognizes as a duty. It is important to understand that a contract is not just a piece of paper, but rather the legal relations resulting from the agreement.

A more thorough explanation:

A dependent contract is a type of contract that creates obligations between two or more parties that are enforceable by law. It is a legally binding agreement that outlines the terms and conditions of the agreement.

For example, a dependent contract could be a contract between an employer and an employee. The employer agrees to pay the employee a certain amount of money in exchange for the employee's work. If the employee does not fulfill their obligations, the employer can take legal action to enforce the contract.

Another example of a dependent contract could be a contract between a landlord and a tenant. The landlord agrees to provide the tenant with a place to live in exchange for rent payments. If the tenant fails to pay rent, the landlord can take legal action to enforce the contract.

These examples illustrate how dependent contracts create legally binding obligations between parties. If one party fails to fulfill their obligations, the other party can take legal action to enforce the contract.

Quentin Tarantino is interested in watching somebody’s ear getting cut off; David Lynch is interested in the ear.
18:03
Quentin Tarantino can't resist putting a gay scene with a black guy participating in the gay act in his movies.
18:05
David Lynch is just gay.
18:18
Lynch is more in touch with his unconscious/dream state than the average person
18:42
Probably. I just dont know. All I know is he did a good job with Dune.
18:45
You should watch Blue Velvet

How’s your LSAT studying been going?
18:49
It is good. I have about two more weeks and I broke the 90 level on LSAT Demon which is good last night. My goal is 95 so I can probably get it before I test. It is scaled our of 100. This is for LR. My RC is below that but I know the more I get better at MBT questions the better my RC becomes.
18:50
I watched the trailer for that movie. The run time is 2 hours. May watch it on 2x the speed. Just watched se7en and thats like as graphic as I get so I kinda need a break from weird bodyhorror stuff. The sloth guy in that movie scared me.
18:51
I do like psychological horror though.
18:53
Oh jesus don’t watch the movie at all if you’re gonna watch it on 2x speed
18:54
I have never used lsat demon; how do their levels relate to actual lsat scoring?
18:56
kinda go in 20 point intervals. 20 points if you have mastered lvl 1 difficulty questions, 100 points if you have mastered lvl 5.
18:56
Getting 100 points is incredibly difficult though. anything baout 95 is pushing the 175-180 range. 90-95 is like 170-174 or so. etc.
18:56
yeah but if you’re getting a 95 on all sections what LSAT score is that? how is that calculated?
18:56
oh okay
18:57
so 100 would be a 180?
18:57
Yeah, 100 is like you would get a 180 and there's nothing more to teach you. I have only seen someone with a 100 like 2/3 times.
18:57
are you taking practice tests that are being scored though?
18:57
or just drills
18:57
Yep, they get factored into it.
18:58
I do drilling essentially every day. A timed section every 3, and a test every 2 weeks.

re: WashU's URM lsat differential - fair to chalk that up to LSAT redaction weirdness messing w the scale or are they generally starved for URMs

And an (albeit negligible) inverse URM GPA differential
Just found out LSAC gpa is different from offical from undergrad, went from 3.0 on 4.0 scale to 2.67... Guess I'm a super splitter rather than a splitter
