A more thorough explanation:

Term: Ligia et non ligia
Definition: In Scots law, ligia et non ligia refers to the distinction between liege and nonliege. A liege fee is a type of landholding that is directly held under the Crown, while a nonliege fee is held under a vassal of the Crown. For example, if a person owns land that is directly held under the Crown, they have a liege fee. If they own land that is held under a vassal of the Crown, they have a nonliege fee. This distinction was important in medieval Scotland because it determined the level of loyalty and obligations owed to the Crown.

Echoing what others have said-- if you're confident your essays and LORs were strong, you probably did just apply too late. All those WLs mean you meet their requirements for admission, and they just chose others over you (maybe because of timing, maybe because of now WE)

lesss GOOOo
Yeah I applied in February, and while I was lucky enough to get into three schools (one of my targets) - I attribute it to a solid LSAT score in January, the application cycle would have looked a lot different if I had gotten my shit together and applied earlier
My family won't accept me not being in college, even if it's to get relevant work experience, they think the moment I start working I'll give up wanting to go to law school, which is why I'm choosing masters

I also applied too late and I feel like an idiot for not having insider knowledge that 1-2 months early = late
