A quick definition of perdonatio utlagariae:

Term: PERDONATIO UTLAGARIAE

Definition: Perdonatio utlagariae was a type of pardon given to someone who had been outlawed for not obeying a court's summons. If the person surrendered themselves voluntarily, they could be eligible for this pardon.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Perdonatio utlagariae (pronounced puh-r-doh-nay-shee-oh ut-luh-gair-ee-ee) is a Latin term used in law that means "pardon of outlawry." It refers to a pardon given to a person who has been outlawed for failing to obey a court's summons. This type of pardon was given to those who voluntarily surrendered.

Example: In medieval times, if a person failed to appear in court after being summoned, they could be declared an outlaw. This meant that they were no longer protected by the law and could be hunted down and punished by anyone. However, if the person decided to surrender themselves to the court, they could be granted a perdonatio utlagariae, which would pardon them for their failure to appear.

Explanation: The example illustrates how perdonatio utlagariae was used in medieval times to pardon those who had been outlawed for failing to obey a court's summons. It shows that the pardon was only given to those who voluntarily surrendered themselves to the court. This type of pardon was important because it allowed people who had been outlawed to regain their legal rights and protections.

Help us make LSD better!
Tell us what's important to you
is there like a cheat sheet or a study guide type of thing for specific forms of questions? I remember I struggled the most with NA/SA/PSA
@soap: if you get above a 175 you should just reapply because you’d probably be competitive for penn nyu and cls at that point with scholly money
I scored 156 on my first LSAT in August, I cancelled that and retook it immediately in September and got 163. Do yall think I can cross into 170's if I start studying from like january to summer
because i've heard that any score increase after 165 is just as hard as from 145 to 160

I've been told by my parents that I cannot reapply because I have the full ride to UMN and so I better take whatever I can get lol

I’m going to have to disagree with soap on the point of doing the hardest questions first. I think it’s just a general waste of time to over complicate your strategy. You’re going to have do all the questions anyone. Ignore the clock and focus on one question at a time.
@VolatileClumsyAcolyte: it gets harder to increase your score as you go up, but if you work hard and consistently work on your mistakes it’s entirely possible you break 170
got it thank u guys
@soap: lol oh well just get top 10% a umn and then transfer to harvard because you come from a grade deflated undergrad and law school will be easy for you
soap

I think the order in which you do questions is a matter of personal preference. In PTs I've always scored better doing the hardest ones first, but that's just because it reduces the stress personally lol
soap
14:02
I guess since I'm paying for all this anyhow I could just wait and reapply lmao
texaslawhopefully
14:03
Yeah soap if you get a 175+, I would 100 percent reapply
hahahahah sure if you’re set on t14 it’s entirely attainable for you

If your parents aren’t helping at all, they don’t have much of a say

^valid pt
my mom is so involved in my application proccess she wanted to cater my personal statement to what she believed would make most impact on adcom.
she is helping pay for it but even if so, they shouldnt be too involved
shes a war veteran so she wanted me to spend significant portion of my ps talking about how much her journey affected and inspired me so i ignored her to the fullest by simply saying "ps is about me not you"
speaking of test prep, any 7sage alternatives that include explanations without "youre dumb if u dont get this"
14:25
twitter is making me so mad i may have to get rid of it

I’m going to get dogged on for saying this, but LSAT Demon has fairly good explanations
14:25
i had demon for a month and they have flushed out written explanations that helpo
14:26
7sage explanations are so sucky i gotta watch a vid of a dude eliminiating an answer choice with 2 seconds of explainaing why
dude, i feel like 7sage guy speedruns thru the whole test.
14:30
the vids are 80% him reading the stimulus out loud then he devotes 4 seconds to each answer choice i swear
14:31
