Read a random definition: index (finance)

A quick definition of Reserve Board:

Reserve Board: The Reserve Board, also known as the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, is a group of seven people who oversee the Federal Reserve System and make decisions about money and credit policies for the entire country. These members are chosen by the President and approved by the Senate to serve for 14 years. The Reserve Board is often abbreviated as FRB.

A more thorough explanation:

A Reserve Board, also known as the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, is a group of people who supervise the Federal Reserve System and make decisions about national monetary and credit policies. The board is made up of seven members who are nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate for 14-year terms. The abbreviation for the Federal Reserve Board is FRB.

When the economy is struggling, the Reserve Board might decide to lower interest rates to encourage people to borrow money and spend more. This can help stimulate the economy and create jobs.

Another example is when the Reserve Board decides to increase the money supply by buying government bonds. This can help lower interest rates and make it easier for people to borrow money for things like buying a house or starting a business.

These examples illustrate how the Reserve Board can use its power to influence the economy and help promote growth and stability.

Hi everybody, I am applying to schools this August. I could use some brief help with optics for my personal statement, as I am a first-gen student in every regard--even at the high school graduate level.

Hey Everyone, I am also applying this cycle and have a question about my personal statement. I want to become a lawyer because of a personal trauma I experienced in the past. Is this too sensitive of a topic to mention in a PS? I won't go into detail and only mention it as it relates to my inspiration to be a lawyer.

Yo! LSD has an AI consultant named Molly to help detect for red flags and trauma dumping in personal statements. You can try it at no charge by signing up for a free trial of LSD+. Think it gives you like two weeks for free or something though so be mindful of how advanced you are in PS drafts. Might want to time it so you have access when it’s most important.

@darthaifos33: this is just my opinion but I think it’s important to try and keep things positive if you can because it will reflect well on you if you can. I’ve been fortunate to read a lot of PSs as an lsat tutor and I’ve gotta say there is a lot of darkness in the world. It’s cliche but that’s the perfect time for your heart to shine through! Also, always keep in mind you’re applying to a professional school so there has to be that relevance I think.

Even though it’s impossible try to imagine a bunch of candidates who have had it way harder than what you’re saying but are also big about it. That’s why I think it looks better to be positive if you can about trauma even though it can be hard af.

Of course! I plan to positvely weave it through my narrative and relevant professional experience in a way that isn't too dark or anything like that. I just wasn't sure if it was a big taboo or anything like that

@TacitSplendidShrew: @darthaifos33 https://drive.google.com/drive/mobile/folders/1jsyd1Mq8RlyMVqli_BW9z1uxY2SzNtFK?sort=13&direction=a definitely try molly and check this link out as well! The only thing about molly is some apps ask if you used AI to write your statement so be mindful of what they’re asking/what you’re using molly for!
