Simple English definitions for legal terms

N.

Read a random definition: Pauline privilege

A quick definition of N.:

Term: N.

Definition: N.A. can mean different things depending on the context. It can stand for National Association, which is a group of people or businesses that work together for a common goal. It can also mean "not applicable," which means something doesn't apply to a particular situation. Another meaning is "not available," which means something is not currently accessible or obtainable. Lastly, N.A. can mean "not allowed," which means something is prohibited or forbidden.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: N.A. can stand for several things:

  1. National Association: This refers to the National Association of a particular industry or organization. For example, N.A. can stand for National Association of Realtors or National Association of Music Merchants.
  2. Not Applicable: This means that something does not apply to a particular situation or context. For example, if a job application asks for a driver's license and you don't have one, you can write N.A. in that section.
  3. Not Available: This means that something is not currently accessible or obtainable. For example, if you call a store to ask if they have a certain product in stock and they don't, they might say "I'm sorry, that item is currently N.A."
  4. Not Allowed: This means that something is prohibited or forbidden. For example, if a sign says "No smoking allowed," you cannot smoke in that area.

These different meanings of N.A. are often used in different contexts, so it's important to understand the context in which it is being used to determine its meaning.

For example, if you see "N.A." on a job application next to a question about your driver's license, it means that the question does not apply to you because you don't have a driver's license. On the other hand, if you see "N.A." on a website next to a product that you're looking for, it means that the product is not available for purchase at that time.

Hi everyone! Decided a bit too late that I wanted to go into law. GPA currently stands at 3.76 (one more semester to go) and I'm interested in going into immigration law. Anybody got any advice for LSAT studying and applications? I plan on taking a gap year to have some time for internships and such :)

Apply for the LSAT fee waiver to try to mitigate the cost of materials! 7Sage is $1 for a year if you have the fee waiver. I also think you should try to work in an immigration firm in some way to see if it’s something you really want to pursue and to add to your resume. Good luck!!! One tip I would also give is to not sign up for the LSAT until you’re practice tests average are around the score you’re aiming for

@madollyy: use LSAT Demon!

20:16
Watch their youtube channel too

Would an internship through CHCI help my application as well?
Dkk
20:29
@madollyy: It would help as a soft but the big focus should be GPA while you can and LSAT right now. I would say GPA is 40% of the app, LSAt 50% and everything else 10%.
snow
20:31
I agree with dk ^
madollyy

Got it, thank you. I don't think there is much I can do for my GPA now since I only have 1 semester left for ug but I definitely will be studying my butt off for the LSAT.

20:32
Nice!
madollyy

I really appreciate your advice, guys <3 Wishing you luck on your endeavors!

@madollyy: is that your CAS GPA?
madollyy
20:33
That's what's on my transcript! I haven't done that one yet tbh. I get mostly A's, some B's. Got dragged down a bit too much from one D in my first semester though ><
JumpySubsequentDolphin
20:34
do you have any A+’s? that could help your gpa!
JumpySubsequentDolphin
20:36
bc LSAC recalculates A+ to 4.3
madollyy
20:39
Noo :( Unfortunately. I'm surprised that I don't, there were definitely some classes that I remember scoring 98-100% but it doesn't show on my transcript
madollyy

Acutally

My university does not list A+
JumpySubsequentDolphin
20:42
yeah my university’s the same way, so frustrating! still a great GPA and with a killer LSAT score you’ll be good to go :)

if you have the means, I’ve heard private tutoring is the way to go

Fingers crossed! I mean I'd be so so glad to go to law school period, but I am a bit of an overachiever. Dream is Berkeley rn, but I'm of course happy to go anywhere that lines up with my plans. And is kind enough with scholarships lol

I'll have to see if my parents are willing to support that. I'm living on my own but ik if it'd help me they'd be willing to help
