memorandum sale

Read a random definition: avoidance

A quick definition of memorandum sale:

A memorandum sale is when someone agrees to buy something, but they don't officially own it until they approve of it. It's like trying on clothes before you buy them. The buyer can take the item home and use it, but they can still change their mind and give it back if they don't like it.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A memorandum sale is a conditional sale in which the buyer takes possession of the property but does not accept title until approving the property. It is a type of sale where the buyer has the right to approve the property before accepting the title.

Example: John wants to buy a car from a dealership. The dealership allows John to take the car for a test drive and use it for a few days. If John likes the car, he can accept the title and complete the purchase. If John does not like the car, he can return it to the dealership without accepting the title. This is an example of a memorandum sale.

Explanation: In a memorandum sale, the buyer has the right to approve the property before accepting the title. This means that the buyer can take possession of the property and use it for a certain period of time before deciding whether to accept the title or not. The example of John buying a car from a dealership illustrates this concept. John can take the car for a test drive and use it for a few days before deciding whether to accept the title or not.

Gecko, I feel pretty good. Two of the RC passages had really tough inference questions -- hoping I narrowed down my answer choices correctly
10:38
Very happy with LR other than having to guess on a couple questions cuz of time

i have a question about my personal statement. in my activism for the hospitality workers' union, i organized and spoke up in favor of stronger regulations on airbnb because the unregulated spread of airbnb throughout LA was inflating housing costs for workers and threatening their job security. do you think it's too divisive to mention regulating airbnb? idk

I wrote mine about how all activists should be consolidated into a large smelting pot and refined down to a viscous goo

I'm sure you'll get a full ride to a few schools :P
11:11
The impression I get is most schools try not to judge based on the political implications of what you write about. They probably care more that you saw a problem and tried to fix it. That seems like a great thing to write a PS about @chowie
11:18
Besides, if a school didn’t let you in for trying to fix a problem you saw in your community, that doesn’t say great things about your school’s culture (assuming the thing you did showed good common sense judgment ofc)
11:19
That school’s* culture
11:23
Thanks Howl you're right :D I def talked about solving problems in my PS
12:03
@HowlEngineer: what's your dream school

"Have you applied for admission to [school] in a prior year" I applied in Oct. of the 23-24 cycle, should I put 23 or 24 as the year I applied?
MildChiller
12:09
Bcuz 2023 is when I technically applied but I applied for admissions in 2024
12:14
2024 cuz that's when you would've been admitted
I agree with Howl
12:19
Gecko what's ur dream school
Hard to say. I'm pretty firmly committed to the philly area so probably temple or villanova
Also relatively debt averse so I'd have to get a good scholarship from BC or Fordham to want to go but that's not very likely for me
Any advice? lol
[] baddestbunny
12:25
what’s a good scholarship for you? what would make BC or Fordham worth it?
12:25
Hmmmm let me think
[] baddestbunny
12:25
fordham’s max aid they give is 45k per year
Bunny I can possibly get a 75%+ scholarship from villanova or temple, and I'd be moving back in with my parents if I went there so I'd have near-zero COL. It'd be really hard to beat that
I would prefer BC over Fordham just because I like boston more, but I'm expecting a WL there tbh
I would maybe consider BC with $ but I don't know how to decide if a better biglaw chance is worth the COL + higher tuition
