endowment policy

Read a random definition: sanctioning right

A quick definition of endowment policy:

An endowment policy is a type of insurance policy that pays out a lump sum of money after a certain period of time or upon the death of the insured person. It is a way to save money and protect loved ones financially. Other types of insurance policies include accident policies, which cover injuries, and homeowner's policies, which protect against damage to a home. Insurance companies use a process called rating to determine how much to charge for a policy, and sometimes they join together in groups called insurance pools to spread the risk.

A more thorough explanation:

An endowment policy is a type of life insurance policy that pays out a lump sum of money either at the end of a specified period or upon the death of the insured person, whichever comes first. This policy is different from a regular life insurance policy because it has a savings component that builds up over time, in addition to providing a death benefit.

For example, if a person purchases a 20-year endowment policy and survives the entire 20-year period, they will receive a lump sum payout at the end of the policy term. If the person dies before the end of the 20-year period, their beneficiaries will receive the death benefit.

Endowment policies are often used as a savings tool for long-term financial goals, such as paying for a child's education or funding a retirement. They can also be used as a form of life insurance to provide financial security for loved ones in the event of the insured person's death.

Help us make LSD better!
Tell us what's important to you
is there like a cheat sheet or a study guide type of thing for specific forms of questions? I remember I struggled the most with NA/SA/PSA
@soap: if you get above a 175 you should just reapply because you’d probably be competitive for penn nyu and cls at that point with scholly money
I scored 156 on my first LSAT in August, I cancelled that and retook it immediately in September and got 163. Do yall think I can cross into 170's if I start studying from like january to summer
because i've heard that any score increase after 165 is just as hard as from 145 to 160

I've been told by my parents that I cannot reapply because I have the full ride to UMN and so I better take whatever I can get lol

I’m going to have to disagree with soap on the point of doing the hardest questions first. I think it’s just a general waste of time to over complicate your strategy. You’re going to have do all the questions anyone. Ignore the clock and focus on one question at a time.
@VolatileClumsyAcolyte: it gets harder to increase your score as you go up, but if you work hard and consistently work on your mistakes it’s entirely possible you break 170
got it thank u guys
@soap: lol oh well just get top 10% a umn and then transfer to harvard because you come from a grade deflated undergrad and law school will be easy for you
soap

I think the order in which you do questions is a matter of personal preference. In PTs I've always scored better doing the hardest ones first, but that's just because it reduces the stress personally lol
soap
14:02
I guess since I'm paying for all this anyhow I could just wait and reapply lmao
texaslawhopefully
14:03
Yeah soap if you get a 175+, I would 100 percent reapply
hahahahah sure if you’re set on t14 it’s entirely attainable for you

If your parents aren’t helping at all, they don’t have much of a say

^valid pt
my mom is so involved in my application proccess she wanted to cater my personal statement to what she believed would make most impact on adcom.
she is helping pay for it but even if so, they shouldnt be too involved
shes a war veteran so she wanted me to spend significant portion of my ps talking about how much her journey affected and inspired me so i ignored her to the fullest by simply saying "ps is about me not you"
speaking of test prep, any 7sage alternatives that include explanations without "youre dumb if u dont get this"
14:25
twitter is making me so mad i may have to get rid of it

I’m going to get dogged on for saying this, but LSAT Demon has fairly good explanations
14:25

14:26
7sage explanations are so sucky i gotta watch a vid of a dude eliminiating an answer choice with 2 seconds of explainaing why
dude, i feel like 7sage guy speedruns thru the whole test.
14:30

14:31
