provisional

Read a random definition: Custos Brevium

A quick definition of provisional:

Term: PROVISIONAL

Definition: Provisional means something that is temporary or conditional. For example, a provisional injunction is a temporary order from a court, and a provisional government is a temporary government that is put in place until a permanent one can be established.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Provisional is an adjective that means something is temporary or conditional.

Examples:

  • A provisional injunction was issued by the court to prevent the company from selling the product until the safety concerns were addressed.
  • The country established a provisional government after the revolution until a permanent government could be formed.

The first example shows that the injunction is temporary and will only be in effect until the safety concerns are addressed. The second example shows that the government is conditional and will only be in place until a permanent government can be formed. Both examples illustrate the definition of provisional as something that is not permanent or final.

What does "Hold" mean on the result column?
21:28
@ClockworkBlue: on LSD?
yeah
babycat

A hold is not exactly a waitlist, but it means they’re waiting to give you a decision later
babycat
21:31
@llama: nice
21:32
@ClockworkBlue: what babycat said, the link reads as the school always initiates the 'hold' status, however [in my case] sometimes applicants ask to be placed on 'hold' pending a score (LSAT, final semester of UG, etc).
21:32
@babycat: just had to get that off my chest.
cornell kira is just about performing well under pressure and having substantive content in your questions
so just try to stay calm and pace your responses so you give good answers during the interview
21:44

yeah pretty much, you get some leniency too. they expect you to not be perfect under pressure

Aye gang (esp. @shaquilleoatmeal) so I went with Zanzibar City over dolphins and I 100% do not regret it. One of the highlights of my whole Africa trip, lovely to see all its cultural blends and architecture. You should all visit this place in your lives, seriously
