A quick definition of embassy:

An embassy is a special building where important people from one country work and live when they are visiting another country. It's like a special house where the leader of the group, called an ambassador, works and sometimes lives. The embassy helps the ambassador talk to the leaders of the other country and helps people from their own country who are visiting or living in the other country.

A more thorough explanation:

An embassy is a special building where a group of people from one country work to represent their country in another country. The group is led by an ambassador, who is like the leader of the group. The embassy is like the official home or office of the ambassador.

For example, the United States has an embassy in London, England. The embassy is a big building with many rooms where American diplomats work. They help Americans who are visiting or living in England, and they also work with the British government to make sure that the United States and England have good relations.

Another example is the Chinese embassy in Washington, D.C. The embassy is a big, beautiful building with a Chinese-style gate and a large courtyard. Inside, there are many offices where Chinese diplomats work. They help Chinese people who are visiting or living in the United States, and they also work with the American government to make sure that China and the United States have good relations.

These examples show how embassies are important for countries to communicate and work together. They also show how embassies can be like a home away from home for people who are living or traveling in a foreign country.

Help us make LSD better!
Tell us what's important to you
yeah but it's also including people below your stats
15:15
Yeah, really my issue is deciding whether to R&R or to just take UF law
also if you reduce the top end of lsat to 170, you have a 33% chance at NYU+columbia, 67% at NU, 33 at mich, 40% berk, 40% UCLA, 100% Cornell, and 50% gulc
realistically you would make it into at least one
15:16
I'm still waiting on a bunch of T14 so hopefully those stats are a good indicator
15:16
idk wait it out - if good offer take if no good offer R&R
i dont think you need to R&R im pretty sure you make it into at least one t14
but if you apply earlier its just a lot easier
15:17
thats odd I didn't see those stats, but ok. We talked abt this awhile back and I'm working on Columbia + Berkeley rn then Cornell, probs is I'm not gonna produce good Why X's before the 25th but whatever
https://www.lsd.law/search/cV9E6 this is artificially deflated because it's only below your stats
someone got into harvard and chicago with your stats
15:19
Why is that deflating it? isnt that a better indicator instead of choosing above median LSATs? Genuinely curious just wondering
when stats are close because of the variability you want a little above your stats and a little below to get more data, adcoms arent so finnicky that 2 points on the lsat is make or break unless it puts you above median, and even then 50% are below median so it's not as big of an impact as you might think. the reason the chanceme tool goes a little above and below your stats by default is to capture a more accurate picture
ie your softs/WE/essays might make you more or less competitive than any random applicant and the best way to account for that is to take a little above and a little below
15:21
got it, I was of the mindset that medians are pretty concrete so taking a +2 LSAT score range was just giving me irrelevant data. Thank you
15:21
Def my softs/essays are the strongest part of my application so hoping they shine through
they kind of are but you see with the data here is doesnt really change your chances going from 172 to 170
yeah youll be in a good place for this cycle
15:22
yeah I guess thats true, I've also been looking at "Included" not "Only" for URM so maybe that's a diff too
15:22
Appreciate it man!
yeah included is giving you data for nURM which isnt relevant for your cycle
and ofc, good luck :)
