A quick definition of public utility district:

A public utility district is a group of people who work together to provide important services to the public, like water, electricity, gas, transportation, or telecommunications. It's like a big team that helps make sure everyone has what they need to live comfortably. They are usually owned by the government and are responsible for making sure these services are available to everyone in their area.

A more thorough explanation:

A public utility district is a type of municipal utility district that provides public services such as water, electricity, gas, transportation, or telecommunications. It is a publicly owned corporation or a political subdivision that serves the public.

For example, a public utility district may provide electricity to a specific area or region. It may also provide water or gas services to the public. These services are essential for the community's well-being and are usually regulated by the government to ensure fair pricing and quality service.

Another example is a transportation district that provides public transportation services to a specific area or region. This district may operate buses, trains, or other forms of public transportation to help people get around.

Overall, public utility districts are important for providing essential services to the public and ensuring that everyone has access to these services.

18:23
i rly liked powerscore! and babycat maybe yeah
18:24
ty :') ive been looking for some prep material but I've seen some where they're like $500 plus for prep material
18:25
7sage, lsatdemon, lsat hacks. check them out it seems like diff ppl have a preference. most offer free trial
babycat
18:25
7sage is $1/month if you can get fee waiver
babycat
18:26
that’s the first thing you should know. apply for a fee waiver through LSAC and it applies to some test prep companies too
@K0zhii: I would recommend LSAT Demon (they also have a fee waiver version) & the Loophole
I personally did not like 7Sage, but since it is so cheap w/ fee waiver it might be worth trying
18:34
@K0zhii: to summarize: 1: https://www.lsac.org/lsat/register-lsat/lsat-cas-fees/fee-waiver 2. check out the above mentioned prep companies, sign up/ 'try them on' and see if you have a preference (they are all a little different). 3. If you get an LSAC fee waiver, you can then use it to get discounted access to the prep companies. Hope this helps!

I mean it is not a bad option, unless you're shooting for HYS or something.
18:44
yeah harvard is def my dream
18:45
I believe regarding PI binding @ NYU? we came to the conclusion that: if you get it, it is binding IF u accept it, after you are admitted, chances are at that point u would know (likely) outcome @ other options. can anyone confirm?
@ChowieBean: Well if HLS is your dream, then don't apply binding somewhere else—at least I wouldn't do that.
18:47
yes i'm sure that one's binding if you accept. and yeah i probably wont bind to berkeley but i want to still write a public interest essay for them
18:54
I wish eggan jackfrost wasp bunny where here to input some knowledge since they are PI focused. texas seems right- it just really depends on the margin of utility u see in each school, if u are deadest on HLS- likely dont do anything binding to other schools?
18:56
agree i just feel like it's such a pipe dream for HLS to be dream school
