get-up

Read a random definition: pincite

A quick definition of get-up:

GET-UP: The way something looks and feels, like its packaging, design, and decor. If it looks different and is not just functional, it can be protected by trademark law.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Get-up is another term for trade dress, which refers to the overall appearance and image of a product or commercial enterprise in the marketplace. This includes the packaging, labeling, design, decor, and other features that make the product or enterprise distinctive and nonfunctional.

Examples: The get-up of a product can include its size, shape, color or color combinations, texture, graphics, or even particular sales techniques. For example, the distinctive red and white packaging of Coca-Cola is part of its trade dress, as is the unique shape of the Coca-Cola bottle. The get-up of a commercial enterprise can include its logo, signage, decor, and other visual elements that create a recognizable brand identity. For example, the golden arches of McDonald's and the green mermaid of Starbucks are both part of their respective trade dresses.

Explanation: The examples illustrate how the get-up or trade dress of a product or commercial enterprise can include a wide range of visual elements that create a distinctive and recognizable brand identity. These elements are often protected under trademark law if they are deemed to be distinctive and nonfunctional, meaning they do not serve a practical purpose beyond identifying the source of the product or enterprise. By protecting their trade dress, companies can prevent others from using similar visual elements that could cause confusion in the marketplace and dilute their brand identity.

@texaslawhopefully: oh I’m not sure hahaha im just basing off of my friend who got a tutor bc she was rly struggling and it seemed like it helped her!
Yeah, that's fair! For some people it can help a lot. I'm just saying in general I don't think it is necessary unless you are trying to finetune a very specific area (or get to the high 170s because that is another thing in and of itself) OR are just terrible at the test. I tutor the test and I find that most people can improve just as much through self-study.

i think for her it was a lack of discipline more than anything else tbh. she could not get herself to meaningfully study on her own

I've finished all my major requirements, so I'm taking pretty much all electives next semester. Keeping one major specific class bc I'm majoring in it for a reason haha. But I'll be pretty free to study and try and improve my GPA. I will try self study first, see where that gets me. If that doesn't work I'll look into tutoring!
the way there probs won't be another wave until after thanksgiving LMFAO
i hate this

most of the stuff a tutor will teach you is stuff you can figure out yourself if you’re sufficiently motivated. if you would benefit from some support and structure tutoring can be helpful

babycat

Yep

I'm in a dual degree program that my undergraduate has where if you meet a gpa and percentile you can have your senior year be your L1 ! Cuts off a year of time and money and the partner was my top pick for law anyways. It all just worked out and since it's ED can't really apply anywhere else because the L1 transfers back to complete my degree. :)

oh that’s nice! I guess you have a high degree of certainty about the process then
