A quick definition of ordinary shares:

Ordinary shares, also known as common stock, are a type of ownership in a company. When you buy ordinary shares, you become a part owner of the company and have the right to vote on important decisions and receive a portion of the company's profits. However, you are not guaranteed a fixed dividend like with preferred stock. The value of ordinary shares can go up or down depending on how well the company is doing and how the stock market is performing.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Ordinary shares are a type of stock that gives the holder the right to vote on company matters, receive dividends after preferred shareholders, and share in assets upon liquidation. They are also known as common stock.

Example: If a company has 100 ordinary shares outstanding and you own 10 of them, you have a 10% ownership stake in the company. You can vote on important decisions, such as electing the board of directors, and you will receive a portion of any profits the company makes in the form of dividends.

This example illustrates how ordinary shares give the holder a voice in the company's management and a share in its profits.

I heard Wyte Claws are outlawed on law school campuses since there are no laws when drinkin claws, hence they defeat the purpose of learning law, is that true?

@HeadyInvincibleRabbit: https://www.reddit.com/r/lawschooladmissions/comments/1jt3hdb/share_of_lsdata_users_that_have_heard_back_from/ Re 87% in that time frame have heard back (of LSD users). So figure 70% of BC applicants use LSD, I would say there is a decent chance you will hear back hopefully soon. IG from the school chat on here there was a recent R wave, so if that was not you, that is a plus
@llama thanks bro just tryna stay positive
in addition to formal LOCIs that I attach to emails, i can also send shorter emails closer to deposit deadlines to express my continued interest, right??
20:29
@HeadyInvincibleRabbit: LOCIs every 4 weeks if you are wait listed is what I have been told. On schools you have not heard from, I have also heard you should not contact them. I disagree: admittance is a binary event [with infinite inputs like ur gpa, lsat, how the adcom is feeling that day, if they like u for whatever reason outside of your control] : you get in or you do not, so if by u emailing them a few times to express your continued interest/ if you have a question, I do not see the issue with that. However, someone else here may say otherwise. Take what I say with a micro grain tho lol
