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.

thats odd I didn't see those stats, but ok. We talked abt this awhile back and I'm working on Columbia + Berkeley rn then Cornell, probs is I'm not gonna produce good Why X's before the 25th but whatever
https://www.lsd.law/search/cV9E6 this is artificially deflated because it's only below your stats
someone got into harvard and chicago with your stats
15:19
Why is that deflating it? isnt that a better indicator instead of choosing above median LSATs? Genuinely curious just wondering
when stats are close because of the variability you want a little above your stats and a little below to get more data, adcoms arent so finnicky that 2 points on the lsat is make or break unless it puts you above median, and even then 50% are below median so it's not as big of an impact as you might think. the reason the chanceme tool goes a little above and below your stats by default is to capture a more accurate picture
ie your softs/WE/essays might make you more or less competitive than any random applicant and the best way to account for that is to take a little above and a little below
15:21
got it, I was of the mindset that medians are pretty concrete so taking a +2 LSAT score range was just giving me irrelevant data. Thank you
15:21
Def my softs/essays are the strongest part of my application so hoping they shine through
they kind of are but you see with the data here is doesnt really change your chances going from 172 to 170
yeah youll be in a good place for this cycle
15:22
yeah I guess thats true, I've also been looking at "Included" not "Only" for URM so maybe that's a diff too
15:22
Appreciate it man!
yeah included is giving you data for nURM which isnt relevant for your cycle
and ofc, good luck :)
