A quick definition of deprivation:

Deprivation means taking something away or not having something that you need or want. It can be taking away property or food, or not having enough food to eat. It can also mean being removed from a job or position, especially in a church.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Deprivation refers to the act of taking away something or withholding something from someone. It can also refer to the state of being without something that is needed or wanted. Additionally, it can refer to the removal or degradation from a position of authority or power.

  • A person who is arrested and has their property confiscated is experiencing deprivation of property.
  • A child who is not given enough food to eat is experiencing deprivation of food.
  • A person who is living in poverty and lacks access to basic necessities like food, shelter, and healthcare is experiencing deprivation from lack of resources.
  • A bishop who is removed from their position of authority within the church is experiencing deprivation of their ecclesiastical office.

These examples illustrate how deprivation can refer to different types of situations where something is taken away or withheld from someone. It can be a physical object like property or food, or it can be a more abstract concept like power or authority. Deprivation can have serious consequences for individuals and communities, leading to poverty, hunger, and other forms of suffering.

i find so many people dont find it valuable getting into the job market a year earlier. as someone who already has a great understanding of how my field operates, does it make sense why i prioritize it so much. and mrthickropes, any other schools you have in mind?

Florida A&M, Ole Miss you're at 25th percentile LSAT, Montana you're almost at median and above for GPA
i agree with ropes, i think getting experience at ur current firm and using the time to improve ur score will be best... the school u go too has an impact on ur chances of being hired, and ull find ur rates of being hired r hiring if u come from a respected university
u can stay w ur firm, strengthen that relationship, and hopefully next year they will even offer to pay for more of ur applications.
