A quick definition of discrete:

Term: DISCRETE

Definition: Discrete means something that is separate and distinct from other things. It is like each thing is its own individual thing and not connected to anything else.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Individual; separate; distinct.

Examples:

  • A coin toss has only two discrete outcomes: heads or tails.
  • The alphabet is made up of discrete letters that can be combined to form words.
  • Each student in the class has their own discrete desk and chair.

The examples illustrate the definition of "discrete" by showing things that are separate and distinct from each other.

In the second example, each letter of the alphabet is distinct and separate from the others, but can be combined to form words. In the third example, each student has their own individual desk and chair, which are separate from the desks and chairs of the other students.

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
