double commission

Read a random definition: TEC

A quick definition of double commission:

Double commission: When someone is paid twice for the same job. For example, if a person helps sell a house and gets paid by both the seller and the buyer, that's double commission. It's like getting paid twice for doing one thing!

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Double commission is a fee paid to a person for a particular transaction by both the seller and the buyer, usually as a percentage of the money received from the transaction. This happens when the same person acts in different capacities for both the seller and the buyer.

  • A real estate agent who represents both the seller and the buyer in a transaction may receive double commission.
  • A stockbroker who buys and sells stocks for both the seller and the buyer may also receive double commission.

These examples illustrate how a person can receive double commission by representing both the seller and the buyer in a transaction. This can create a conflict of interest, as the person may be motivated to prioritize their own financial gain over the best interests of their clients.

Quentin Tarantino is interested in watching somebody’s ear getting cut off; David Lynch is interested in the ear.

Quentin Tarantino can't resist putting a gay scene with a black guy participating in the gay act in his movies.
Dkkm11
18:05
David Lynch is just gay.
[] baddestbunny
18:18
Lynch is more in touch with his unconscious/dream state than the average person

Probably. I just dont know. All I know is he did a good job with Dune.

How’s your LSAT studying been going?
Dkkm11
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.

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.
Dkkm11
18:51
I do like psychological horror though.
[] baddestbunny
18:53
Oh jesus don’t watch the movie at all if you’re gonna watch it on 2x speed
[] baddestbunny
18:54
I have never used lsat demon; how do their levels relate to actual lsat scoring?
Dkkm11
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.
Dkkm11
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.
[] baddestbunny
18:56
yeah but if you’re getting a 95 on all sections what LSAT score is that? how is that calculated?
[] baddestbunny
18:56
oh okay
[] baddestbunny
18:57
so 100 would be a 180?
Dkkm11
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.
[] baddestbunny
18:57
are you taking practice tests that are being scored though?
[] baddestbunny
18:57
or just drills
Dkkm11
18:57
Yep, they get factored into it.
Dkkm11
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
