Economic Research Service

Read a random definition: vicarious reduction to practice

A quick definition of Economic Research Service:

Economic Research Service: A part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture that collects and studies information about agriculture in the United States and around the world.

Economic Right: The legal right to make money from something you created, like a book or a song. This is different from the feeling of pride you might have in making something.

A more thorough explanation:

The Economic Research Service (ERS) is a part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Its job is to gather and analyze information about agriculture in the United States and around the world.

Economic right refers to the legal right to make money from a creative work. This is different from moral rights, which are the rights a creator has to their work. Economic rights are mostly used in countries that follow civil law.

For example, if a musician writes a song, they have the economic right to make money from that song by selling it or allowing others to use it for a fee. However, they also have moral rights to the song, such as the right to be credited as the creator and the right to prevent others from using the song in a way that goes against their values.

These examples illustrate the difference between economic and moral rights and how they apply to creative works.

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

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
