A quick definition of limine:

Term: LIMINE

Definition: Limine means "at the outset" in Latin. It is used in legal proceedings to refer to a preliminary decision made by a judge before or during a trial. This decision is presented only to the judge and can be about a question or issue that needs to be resolved before the trial can proceed. It is also known as a motion in limine.

A more thorough explanation:

Limine is a Latin term that means "at the outset." In legal terms, it refers to a preliminary decision made by a judge before or during a trial. This decision is made after hearing arguments from both sides and is presented only to the judge.

One example of limine is a motion in limine, which is a request made by one party to exclude certain evidence or testimony from being presented during the trial. Another example is a question that is presented to the judge to be decided before the trial begins.

For instance, in a criminal trial, the defense may file a motion in limine to exclude evidence that was obtained illegally. The judge will hear arguments from both sides and make a preliminary decision on whether or not to allow the evidence to be presented during the trial.

Another example is a question that is presented to the judge to be decided before the trial begins. For example, in a civil trial, the judge may be asked to decide whether or not a certain claim is valid before the trial begins.

Help us make LSD better!
Tell us what's important to you
Yeah, that's fair! For some people it can help a lot. I'm just saying in general I don't think it is necessary unless you are trying to finetune a very specific area (or get to the high 170s because that is another thing in and of itself) OR are just terrible at the test. I tutor the test and I find that most people can improve just as much through self-study.

i think for her it was a lack of discipline more than anything else tbh. she could not get herself to meaningfully study on her own

I've finished all my major requirements, so I'm taking pretty much all electives next semester. Keeping one major specific class bc I'm majoring in it for a reason haha. But I'll be pretty free to study and try and improve my GPA. I will try self study first, see where that gets me. If that doesn't work I'll look into tutoring!
the way there probs won't be another wave until after thanksgiving LMFAO

most of the stuff a tutor will teach you is stuff you can figure out yourself if you’re sufficiently motivated. if you would benefit from some support and structure tutoring can be helpful

I'm in a dual degree program that my undergraduate has where if you meet a gpa and percentile you can have your senior year be your L1 ! Cuts off a year of time and money and the partner was my top pick for law anyways. It all just worked out and since it's ED can't really apply anywhere else because the L1 transfers back to complete my degree. :)
