A quick definition of time bill:

A time bill is a written order that directs one person to pay a certain amount of money to another person at a specific time. It is similar to a check. There are different types of drafts, such as a sight draft that is payable on demand or a time draft that has a specified payment date. A draft can also refer to the compulsory enlistment of people into military service. To draft means to write or compose something or to recruit or select someone for a task or job.

A more thorough explanation:

A time bill is a type of draft that specifies a payment date. A draft is an unconditional written order signed by one person (the drawer) directing another person (the drawee or payor) to pay a certain sum of money on demand or at a definite time to a third person (the payee) or to bearer.

For example, if a company wants to buy goods from another company but doesn't have the money to pay for them right away, they can use a time bill. The company would write a draft that specifies a payment date in the future, and the other company would agree to accept the draft as payment. This allows the first company to receive the goods they need without having to pay for them immediately.

Another example of a draft is a check. When you write a check, you are essentially creating a draft that instructs your bank to pay a certain amount of money to the person or company you are paying.

Overall, a time bill is a useful tool for businesses that need to make purchases but don't have the funds available at the time of purchase. By using a time bill, they can delay payment until a specified date in the future.

Tell us what's important to you

to apply it. I love it- looking like a 155-170+ in a few months for me
oh i just checked, i still have to pay even if i have a fee waiver, damn
14:48
imo go basic with FW, then when (if) you run out of questions/tests, upgrade OR just take tests /drill on lawhib
14:48
the long sleep
ill give a free edition a try first, if i like then i will purchase. they have 3 free tests, right?
14:50
oh yea obi go free- yes 3 free tests. yes they can be crude/'mean' but they explain all 5 answers and when u upgrade they have good write ups on ea question
ill start prepping in january and aim for august lsat or september even. would it look bad if i have 3-4 attempts on my record? I already took it twice and cancelled my first score so im bit worried about that lol
nope lots of people take the lsat 3-4 times
14:59
@VolatileClumsyAcolyte: is it bad: some schools seem to prefer 1 and done vs 2+ takes. Is it better for you? If score much higher- yes. Overall, if it makes sense for u go for it
you might have to write an addendum though, but schools really want higher medians so if they see a big number that's all they honestly care about
14:59
^^^
CLS is my dream school and the only reason I am considering reapplying is to probably score higher and have better chances there, so fingers crossed they're chill about it
15:05
with that targeted goal/ willingness to take a year to improve score, and from what you have said, it seems like a great option to reapply early next cycle w/ a higher score. best of luck!
15:09
guys is there any chance for me to get into T14s? I applied to some but was convinced to apply to the rest, just feel its too late in the cycle for my stats (170 3.68)
more likely than not you make it into at least one t14
15:14
Hey long time no see hahaha, the prob with that is it has the range of up to 172, Im only 170
15:14
If u have the top range at my stats, there's only like 9 ppl who made it into T14s
yeah but it's also including people below your stats
15:15
Yeah, really my issue is deciding whether to R&R or to just take UF law
also if you reduce the top end of lsat to 170, you have a 33% chance at NYU+columbia, 67% at NU, 33 at mich, 40% berk, 40% UCLA, 100% Cornell, and 50% gulc
realistically you would make it into at least one
15:16
I'm still waiting on a bunch of T14 so hopefully those stats are a good indicator
15:16
idk wait it out - if good offer take if no good offer R&R
i dont think you need to R&R im pretty sure you make it into at least one t14
but if you apply earlier its just a lot easier
15:17
thats odd I didn't see those stats, but ok. We talked abt this awhile back and I'm working on Columbia + Berkeley rn then Cornell, probs is I'm not gonna produce good Why X's before the 25th but whatever
https://www.lsd.law/search/cV9E6 this is artificially deflated because it's only below your stats
someone got into harvard and chicago with your stats
15:19
Why is that deflating it? isnt that a better indicator instead of choosing above median LSATs? Genuinely curious just wondering
