A quick definition of owe:

Term: owe

Definition: When you owe someone, it means you have to give them money or something else of value. It's like a promise to pay back what you borrowed. But just because you owe someone doesn't mean you have to pay them right away. You only have to pay them when the time comes that you agreed upon.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: To have a legal obligation to pay money to someone else. However, the amount owed is not necessarily "payable" until the due date arrives.

1. Sarah owes her landlord $500 in rent for the month of June. She has until the end of the month to pay it.

2. John owes his friend $20 for borrowing his bike. They agreed that he would pay him back next week.

3. The company owes its employees their salaries at the end of each month.

These examples illustrate the definition of "owe" by showing situations where someone has a legal obligation to pay money to someone else. In each example, there is an agreed upon amount that is owed, but it is not necessarily due immediately. The owed amount becomes "payable" only when the due date arrives.

My berkeley paragraph finally disappeared. I definitely think it is just an indicator that they are actively reviewing files, and does not mean anything about A, WL, or Rs

UMN under review! As predicted, decisions are gonna come out early December
Minus those random R decisions from UMN yesterday though right? I wonder what happened there. I don’t think I’ve seen a school start the season out with anything but As on here
almost all of my apps have been UR for 6 weeks at this point I feel exhausted waiting for them to finish
Irvine is being snobby and wont start any review until end of Nov.
Yeah, it’s tough. I’m distracting myself by playing good video games after work :)
im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
