A quick definition of is qui omnino desipit:

Term: IS QUI OMNINO DESIPIT

Definition: Is qui omnino desipit means "one who is completely void of reason" in Latin. It was used to describe a person who was insane, not just someone who was foolish or stupid.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Is qui omnino desipit (is kwI om-nI-noh dee-sip-it) is a Latin phrase that refers to a person who is completely void of reason. It was historically used to describe an insane person, not an idiot.

Example 1: John was found wandering the streets, talking to himself and behaving erratically. His family took him to a mental health facility where he was diagnosed with schizophrenia. He was described as is qui omnino desipit.

Example 2: The king's advisor warned him against making a certain decision, but the king ignored the advice and suffered the consequences. The advisor remarked that the king was acting like is qui omnino desipit.

These examples illustrate how the phrase is used to describe someone who is completely lacking in reason or sanity. In the first example, John's behavior is so irrational that he is considered insane. In the second example, the king's decision-making is so foolish that he is compared to someone who is completely void of reason.

@llama: There was one guy who did it successfully last year, I'll see if I can find the post for you. Absolutely not a normal practice though -- nor should it be!

crabapple

llama

A shyster: is a person who is dishonest or unethical, especially in the practice of law. The term is often used as a derogatory term for lawyers. pinnacle word choice imo.

@crabapple: mich puts it out as an option and said in a waitlist session this year that they want to take more people than normal this way due to app volume

@ReadyThinWerewolf: Yeah, I mean you got like Berk this year that hasn't dipped under 3.6. Some are like that.

JuicyApple

nm they dipped under for like idk 10 fucking people.

JuicyApple

0:46

Yeah, if you dont have at least a 3.7 it means you fucked around and didn't try hard in undergrad.

JuicyApple

Here we will do Yale. 3 people got in lower than a 3.75. So yeah, some schools are practically unreachable without some insane soft if you don't have a good gpa.
