A more thorough explanation:

The Westminster Confession of Faith is a document that outlines the religious beliefs of the Presbyterian Church. It was created in 1643 by a group of Protestant divines from Britain and the continent who met at Westminster. The document was later adopted by the General Assembly of the Kirk of Scotland and the Scottish Parliament, making it the basis of the Scottish Presbyterian Church.

The Westminster Confession of Faith is an important document for Presbyterians because it helps to define their beliefs and practices. It covers a wide range of topics, including God, the Bible, salvation, and the church. By following the teachings of the Westminster Confession of Faith, Presbyterians believe that they are staying true to the teachings of the Bible.

For example, the Westminster Confession of Faith teaches that God is sovereign and in control of all things. This means that everything that happens in the world is part of God's plan, even if we don't always understand it. Presbyterians believe that this is an important part of their faith because it helps them to trust in God even when things are difficult.

@llama: There was one guy who did it successfully last year, I'll see if I can find the post for you. Absolutely not a normal practice though -- nor should it be!

20:52
Imagine if you were trying to apply to law school and half the seats were already taken by schmucks from last year's waitlist
20:52
@crabapple: I would LOL. Real shyster move tho, you rite.
20:53
@Arianq4: 1. Move. 2. Pursue other, non legal work, then take a year after UG to work if u wish
20:54
A shyster: is a person who is dishonest or unethical, especially in the practice of law. The term is often used as a derogatory term for lawyers. pinnacle word choice imo.
@crabapple: mich puts it out as an option and said in a waitlist session this year that they want to take more people than normal this way due to app volume
it makes sense for me because I got a new opportunity for a year and figured it wouldn't hurt to ask
was there a vandy wave today? seems like a small one

nm they dipped under for like idk 10 fucking people.
0:46
Yeah, if you dont have at least a 3.7 it means you fucked around and didn't try hard in undergrad.
0:48
Here we will do Yale. 3 people got in lower than a 3.75. So yeah, some schools are practically unreachable without some insane soft if you don't have a good gpa.
