A quick definition of privileged copyhold:

Privileged copyhold is a type of land ownership that is similar to copyhold, but with special rights and privileges. Copyhold is a medieval system of land tenure where a tenant held land from a lord in return for services or rent. Privileged copyhold gave the tenant additional rights, such as exemption from certain taxes or the ability to pass the land on to their heirs without interference from the lord. It was a way for the lord to reward loyal tenants and encourage them to stay on the land.

A more thorough explanation:

Privileged refers to a special advantage or benefit that is given to a particular person or group. It can also refer to a legal right or immunity that is granted to someone.

  • Privileged copyhold: This refers to a type of land tenure in medieval England where the tenant had certain rights and privileges that other tenants did not have.
  • Privileged debt: This refers to a debt that has a higher priority than other debts and must be paid first.
  • Privileged evidence: This refers to evidence that is protected by a legal privilege, such as attorney-client privilege or doctor-patient privilege.
  • Privileged motion: This refers to a motion in parliamentary procedure that has a higher priority than other motions and must be considered first.
  • Privileged question: This refers to a question in parliamentary procedure that has a higher priority than other questions and must be answered first.
  • Privileged subscription: This refers to a right given to existing shareholders to purchase additional shares of a company before they are offered to the public.
  • Privileged villeinage: This refers to a type of villeinage in medieval England where the villein had certain rights and privileges that other villeins did not have.
  • Privilege from arrest: This refers to a legal right or immunity that protects certain individuals from being arrested or detained, such as members of parliament or diplomats.
  • Privileges and Immunities Clause: This refers to a provision in the US Constitution that prohibits states from discriminating against citizens of other states who are visiting or living in their state.

These examples illustrate how the term "privileged" can be used in different contexts to refer to different types of advantages, benefits, rights, or immunities that are granted to certain individuals or groups. In each case, the privileged person or group has a special status or position that gives them certain advantages or protections that others do not have. This can create a sense of inequality or unfairness, as some people are given special treatment while others are not.

Quentin Tarantino is interested in watching somebody’s ear getting cut off; David Lynch is interested in the ear.
18:03
Quentin Tarantino can't resist putting a gay scene with a black guy participating in the gay act in his movies.
18:05
David Lynch is just gay.
18:18
Lynch is more in touch with his unconscious/dream state than the average person
18:42
Probably. I just dont know. All I know is he did a good job with Dune.
18:45
You should watch Blue Velvet
18:46
How’s your LSAT studying been going?
18:49
It is good. I have about two more weeks and I broke the 90 level on LSAT Demon which is good last night. My goal is 95 so I can probably get it before I test. It is scaled our of 100. This is for LR. My RC is below that but I know the more I get better at MBT questions the better my RC becomes.
18:50
I watched the trailer for that movie. The run time is 2 hours. May watch it on 2x the speed. Just watched se7en and thats like as graphic as I get so I kinda need a break from weird bodyhorror stuff. The sloth guy in that movie scared me.
18:51
I do like psychological horror though.
18:53
Oh jesus don’t watch the movie at all if you’re gonna watch it on 2x speed
18:54
I have never used lsat demon; how do their levels relate to actual lsat scoring?
18:56
kinda go in 20 point intervals. 20 points if you have mastered lvl 1 difficulty questions, 100 points if you have mastered lvl 5.
18:56
Getting 100 points is incredibly difficult though. anything baout 95 is pushing the 175-180 range. 90-95 is like 170-174 or so. etc.
18:56
yeah but if you’re getting a 95 on all sections what LSAT score is that? how is that calculated?
18:56
oh okay
18:57
so 100 would be a 180?
18:57
Yeah, 100 is like you would get a 180 and there's nothing more to teach you. I have only seen someone with a 100 like 2/3 times.
18:57
are you taking practice tests that are being scored though?
18:57
or just drills
18:57
Yep, they get factored into it.
18:58
I do drilling essentially every day. A timed section every 3, and a test every 2 weeks.

re: WashU's URM lsat differential - fair to chalk that up to LSAT redaction weirdness messing w the scale or are they generally starved for URMs

And an (albeit negligible) inverse URM GPA differential
