A quick definition of great diligence:

Great diligence means putting in a lot of effort and being very careful when doing something. It's like when you work really hard on a project and make sure everything is done perfectly. It's important to have great diligence when handling important things like your own property or when trying to meet legal requirements.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Great diligence is a term used to describe the level of care and effort that a very prudent person would take in handling their own property or in accomplishing a task.

Example: If a person is entrusted with a valuable piece of artwork, they would need to exercise great diligence in protecting and preserving it. This would involve taking all necessary precautions to prevent damage or theft, such as storing it in a secure location and handling it with extreme care.

Explanation: Great diligence is a high level of care and effort that goes beyond what an average person would do. It is often required in situations where there is a high risk of harm or loss, such as when dealing with valuable property or important tasks. By exercising great diligence, a person can minimize the risk of negative outcomes and ensure that they are fulfilling their responsibilities to the best of their ability.

@ClockworkBlue: I feel like most people could train for the 40 for the same amount of time as they do the LSAT and get close to sub 5 which would be equivalent to a 167+

if the country was run the same as Mich Law it would be a better place
Imagine if election night was run by an adcom? Like, "yep, we could get the results Friday, or June 2025."
imagine if it was like Berkley applications

I have no idea why people have so much beef w berkeley's app
I've been reading a bit about "herding," which is this idea that pollsters are making the race look tied so they look right no matter who wins.

Like... it's a more involved app but you don't have to do it? They're clearly trying to have some self-selection go on
I 100% agree with the self selection, I also am not even close to touching the medians there. However I think the huge PS plus the video and especially the very specific criteria for the why Berkeley essay is pretty crazy
I'm curious, how bold can one be in those videos? Is it worth making a satirical Jason Statham-action short if the adcoms have no sense of humor?
the more risk you take the higher chance of it backfiring
my instinct would be low humor bc if they have such a complex application I would feel hesitant to use a major part of it as a joke. They clearly take their admissions seriously and a joke video might convey the wrong thing at the wrong time. I think that humor is best put into a PS anecdote where it adds some shine to your personality
safe is always better
All good points

@TheAdoptedOne: amazing
I almost did one for Vanderbilt and my idea was to do a documentary-style vid where I and others talked about me like it was an ESPN 30 for 30.
