A quick definition of kleptomania:

Term: KLEPTOMANIA

Definition: Kleptomania is a condition where a person has a strong urge to steal things, even if they don't need them or can afford to buy them. This urge is often uncontrollable and can cause the person to steal things they don't even want or need. Someone who has kleptomania is called a kleptomaniac.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Kleptomania is a condition where a person has an uncontrollable urge to steal things, even if they don't need or want them.

Example 1: Sarah has kleptomania and often steals small items like pens or candy from stores, even though she can afford to buy them.

Example 2: John has kleptomania and has been caught stealing from his friends' houses, even though he has no use for the items he takes.

These examples illustrate how kleptomania is a compulsive urge to steal, even when there is no economic motive. People with kleptomania may feel a sense of relief or pleasure when they steal, but they often feel guilty or ashamed afterwards. It is important for individuals with kleptomania to seek professional help to manage their condition.

Sent in my transcript at 6 am today and it’s processing. Think it will be processed before lsac closes tmrw?

I would say it is a toss up, for how much LSAC charges us for everything they are extremely efficient in processing and sending stuff out BUT with a 30% uptake in applicants and the holidays it may be significantly slower unless it is ran through and processed by a computer program. Even if it takes them longer to process it, not like there is anyone at a school to request and review it after LSAC does their thing
