A quick definition of pondere, numero, et mensura:

Pondere, numero, et mensura is a Latin phrase that means "by weight, number, and measure." This phrase was used in the past to determine the value of fungible items, which are things that can be measured or counted, like corn, wine, or money. The phrase was used to make sure that these items were accurately valued and could be exchanged fairly.

A more thorough explanation:

Pondere, numero, et mensura (pronounced pon-dər-ee, noo-muh-roh, et men-soor-uh) is a Latin phrase that means "by weight, number, and measure." This phrase is used in reference to methods for determining fungibles.

Fungibles are things that can be easily replaced by something else of equal value, such as money, corn, or wine. The phrase ponder, numero, et mensura is used to determine whether a certain subject falls within the class of fungibles. This class includes all those things which perish in the using and which can be estimated generally by weight, number, and measure.

For example, if you want to buy a bag of corn, you would use ponder, numero, et mensura to determine the quantity and quality of the corn. You would weigh the corn to determine the weight, count the number of bags to determine the number, and measure the volume of the corn to determine the measure.

Another example is when you want to buy a bottle of wine. You would use ponder, numero, et mensura to determine the quality and quantity of the wine. You would weigh the bottle to determine the weight, count the number of bottles to determine the number, and measure the volume of the wine to determine the measure.

These examples illustrate how ponder, numero, et mensura is used to determine the quantity and quality of fungibles. By using these methods, you can ensure that you are getting what you paid for and that the product is of good quality.

Sent in my transcript at 6 am today and it’s processing. Think it will be processed before lsac closes tmrw?

I would say it is a toss up, for how much LSAC charges us for everything they are extremely efficient in processing and sending stuff out BUT with a 30% uptake in applicants and the holidays it may be significantly slower unless it is ran through and processed by a computer program. Even if it takes them longer to process it, not like there is anyone at a school to request and review it after LSAC does their thing
