double proof

Read a random definition: Trust Intent

A quick definition of double proof:

Double Proof: Double proof is a term used in mathematics and logic that means to prove something twice. It is similar to the regular proof, but it requires two separate and independent proofs to confirm the validity of a statement or theorem. Essentially, it means that the evidence supporting a claim is so strong that it has been verified twice.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Double proof is a term used in mathematics to describe a process of verifying a solution or answer by checking it twice using different methods or approaches. It is a way to ensure that the answer is correct and free from errors.

Example: If a student is asked to solve a math problem, they may use one method to arrive at an answer. To double proof their solution, they would use a different method to check if the answer is correct. For instance, if a student is asked to find the area of a rectangle, they may use the formula A = l x w. To double proof their answer, they would use a different formula, such as A = 1/2bh for a parallelogram, to check if the answer is the same.

The example illustrates how double proof works in mathematics. By using different methods to check the answer, the student can be confident that their solution is correct and free from errors.

Tell us what's important to you

i don't think it has a detrimental effect on your chances of admission
13:34
but also you don't need to tell them anything so lol
Can y'all help me understand something lol. What does it mean for an app to "go complete"? Is that when the school has reviewed it and made a decision?
13:35
Na, it's when they have all the required information
Gotcha. So what would be the difference between received and completed?
Does complete entail like the app + LORs?
13:35
correct
That makes sense. Thank you!
13:36
complete basically means they've acknowledged receipt and it's ready to go under review whenever they start the deliberative process

I still haven't had Chicago or Cornell go complete, but I think that's just how they be
13:41
when did you submit
CaringEquableGuppy
13:42
How do you know when an application is complete? Is it on LSAC or the school's portal?
13:43
it'll be on the school-specific portal
Quillinit
13:44
when they opened
Quillinit
13:45
they both say something along the lines of "received and waiting to be processed"
13:48
anyone have good resources for revising a personal statement for reuse after applying with it last cycle?
13:49
Any guesses when Cornell and Penn CRS fee waivers will go out?
13:51
@Quillinit: from my recollection, chicago and cornell collapse complete/UR1 into a single step, so they may simply not be ready to begin reviewing applications
13:52
i think it's fair to assume, barring a handful of schools like UVA, most schools won't begin reviewing applications in earnest until the beginning of next month at the earliest, so it wouldn't be surprising to hear that applications are just sitting in the queue
13:54
@oakenrays: I was just gonna write a new one personally but I think you want to make it recognizably different from your previous PS
13:56
@baddestbunny: definitely agree that some revision and additional information is warranted but, my why law is the same... I guess just tell the same story in a different way
14:03
ugh fineeee I'll write a new stupid essay
14:07
yeah I told my last essay about a formative experience and am trying to update it now to be about what I’ve learned since that experience
recently wrapped up interview
i re-wrote my PS this cycle when I reapplied
fire drill at work
so lit
