interest-based quorum

Read a random definition: mutuatus

A quick definition of interest-based quorum:

An interest-based quorum is a minimum number of people who must be present or represented from different groups or interests in order for a meeting or assembly to legally conduct business. This means that each group or interest has a say in the decision-making process, and their presence or representation is necessary for the meeting to be valid. Other types of quorums include notice-based, proportional, and registration-based quorums.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Interest-based quorum is a type of quorum that is determined based on the presence or representation of various constituencies. It is the minimum number of members required to be present for a deliberative assembly to legally transact business.

Examples:

  • A board of directors may require that a certain number of members from each department be present to constitute an interest-based quorum.
  • A student council may require that a certain number of representatives from each grade level be present to constitute an interest-based quorum.

These examples illustrate how an interest-based quorum is determined based on the representation of different groups or constituencies. It ensures that all groups have a say in the decision-making process and prevents one group from dominating the discussion.

the index seems applicable for splitters or low score ppl.
12:20
to assess their value to each school

Index numbers seem useful mostly to help you see how soon your app might be reviewed after submitting, since admissions officers are incentivized to make decisions on high performers early. But I’m not actually sure how useful that is in reality lol. It could also give some hints on how much a school weighs gpa vs lsat
12:20
yeah tldr mathy astrology for admissions lmfao
12:21
but but but correlation within the data set always is causation. -155 scorer be like
