proprietary right

Read a random definition: case

A quick definition of proprietary right:

Proprietary right is a type of legal right that gives a person ownership or control over something. It can be a tangible thing like a house or a car, or an intangible thing like a patent or a copyright. Having a proprietary right means that others cannot use or take that thing without permission. It's like having a special key that only you can use to open a door.

A more thorough explanation:

A proprietary right is a legal term that refers to the interest, claim, or ownership that one has in tangible or intangible property. It is a legally enforceable claim that another will do or will not do a given act. For example, a person who owns a house has a proprietary right to that property, which means they have the legal right to sell, rent, or use it as they see fit.

Another example of a proprietary right is publishing rights. If an author writes a book, they have a proprietary right to the book, which means they have the legal right to publish, distribute, and sell it. No one else can do so without their permission.

Proprietary rights are important because they protect a person's ownership and control over their property. Without these rights, anyone could use or take someone else's property without consequence.

That’s incredible lion
yeah duke ed 2 is in jan, i think if i don't get in berk ed i'll do that assuming that i haven't gotten a decision from them by that point
12:43
haha i said "like," my local school is like 300-500th depending on year and they usually have 5+ 170+ scorers

i cant imagine it hurts your application if you demonstrate purpose and direction. the problem with some kjds is they dont really know what they want with life yet
the usnews rankings don't even go down that far
12:44
Duke is pretty gpa sensitive. The most sub 3 gpa friendly T14s are gulc, uva, and now cornell

@EvolBunny: there are 198 ABA accredited schools in the US
the vast majority of 170+ are enrolling at T20's--that's the only way they keep a 170 median lmao

just claim what you want in life in applications and then it can change in law school as ur exposed to stuff
@babycat: I don't think so, assuming that you have a cohesive why law and actually did stuff in undergrad. I mean ofc your application will always be stronger given work experience, but I don't think KJD status on its own "hurts" your application.
12:45
best thing you can do as a sub 3 is clear Wash U's median and go there, which I'm going to try to do in January if I don't hear from UGA before the deadline to sign up (Dec 3)

I'm just saying this as a hypothetical. people say urm boost is the equivalent of x LSAT point increase. was just wondering if there was an equivalent kJD decrease
I think you guys think about yourselves too much. All you can do is put together a well rounded application and simply wait!
@EvolBunny: I think you just proved yourself wrong lmao. It is showing 50 percent of people with those stats getting into WashU.
"@JumpySubsequentDolphin: you know schools that are like 350th ranked have people with 170+ lsats, right? GPA and all that does play a role and bruce is likely not getting what he wants"

actually the opposite of thinking about myself I just want to see what other people think

@texaslawhopefully: is washu the entire t20? Or notorious for letting applicants redact gpa or lsat? Like okay i guess washu, what about the rest? Buddy literally said he is a nothing candidate except high lsat. No EC, WE, minority status, right skin color, military, in state, etc. That means he will be fucked by the t20, except maybe washu
12:49
I also never said I only wanted to go to a T20
@EvolBunny: You're stupid af. Did you read what he said. He said fucking WashU.
And, yes, most people with a 170+ will go to the T20 because at the very least since the T20 pretty much all has a 170+ LSAT median they need at least 3k people a year with a 170+ to maintain those medians (given about 6k people enroll in the T20).
And there's only 4k people a year with a 170+.

@babycat: That KJD question is a legit one, I wonder if there is enough data out there to show it as there is data that makes people think URM is a point boost

I just got my second decision of the day (:
12:52
you are a fucking idiot, Do you think every 170+ is in the t20? Some people want to inherit daddy's judge position and local connections and only needed a 155 but shit out a 173. Okay, go look at the schools yourself. Surely you will find ONLY 170s in the t20 and nowhere else! fucking tool. Also, there are only 4400ish people in the t14 and the median is like 171 lmfao they do not want ONLY 170+s

unless you participated in a million clubs or had legit internships idk how kjds do so well honestly

12:53
nothing against kjds just heard a ton of advice that you should work before applying
@EvolBunny: I said the vast majority dumbass. There's only 4k people with a 170+ and 6k people in the T20. The lowest LSAT median in the T20 is 169, so yes the vast majority of people (as in 70ish percent) with a 170+ are going to the T14.
