risk

Read a random definition: QEN

A quick definition of risk:

Risk: Risk means that something bad might happen and you might lose something because of it. It's like when you play a game and you might lose, but you still decide to play anyway.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Risk refers to the chance or possibility of an unfavorable event happening, which could lead to a loss or harm.

Examples:

  • Investing in the stock market involves a certain level of risk. There is a chance that the value of your investment could decrease, resulting in a financial loss.
  • Driving a car comes with the risk of getting into an accident, which could cause physical harm or damage to your vehicle.
  • Starting a new business involves taking on the risk of failure, which could result in financial loss and potentially harm your reputation.

These examples illustrate how risk involves the possibility of negative consequences. In each case, there is a chance that something could go wrong, resulting in a loss or harm. It's important to be aware of the risks involved in any decision or action and take steps to mitigate them.

What does "Hold" mean on the result column?
21:28
@ClockworkBlue: on LSD?
yeah
babycat
21:30
A hold is not exactly a waitlist, but it means they’re waiting to give you a decision later

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
so just don't sperg out on camera and ur good?
yeah pretty much, you get some leniency too. they expect you to not be perfect under pressure
