A quick definition of adeem:

Adeem means to take back a gift that was promised in a will because the thing that was promised doesn't exist anymore or doesn't belong to the person who wrote the will when they die. This happens when the thing that was promised is sold, given away, or destroyed before the person who wrote the will dies. To avoid confusion, sometimes people will say in their will that the gift only counts if they still own it when they die.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Adeem is a legal term that means to cancel or withdraw a bequest (a gift of property made in a will) because the property no longer belongs to the person who made the will (the testator) at the time of their death. This happens when the property that was supposed to be given away is sold, destroyed, given away, or no longer exists when the testator dies. To avoid confusion, some wills include the phrase "if owned by me at my death" when making a bequest of property.

Example: Let's say that in his will, John leaves his car to his son, Tom. However, before John dies, he sells the car and buys a new one. When John dies, Tom cannot inherit the car because it no longer exists. This is an example of adeem.

Another example: Mary's will states that she leaves her house to her daughter, Sarah. However, before Mary dies, she gives the house to her son, David, as a gift. When Mary dies, Sarah cannot inherit the house because it no longer belongs to Mary. This is another example of adeem.

These examples illustrate how adeem works in practice. If the property that was supposed to be given away no longer exists or belongs to the testator at the time of their death, the bequest is cancelled or withdrawn.

YOOO omg ru fancy american girl in a new account have u risen
saying a wrong answer journal is for ai training is crazy
i did most of my lsat prep on pen and paper and i actually threw it away yesterday. legit an inch thick stack of notebook paper
LOL no i am not F A G
i think you are bc you accused me again of having accommodations
pls they have to be Fancy lmfao
@windyMagician: last i looked many people HATE accommodations and the abuse fucks like you create in the system. If this supposed fancy girl called that out, i support it lmfao Fucking half the t14 wouldnt be there without "let me be marked with double the time" special treatment. People who would score 163 and not be in a t14 if they didnt have accommodations, like the 165 above them who is exactly like them, aka not on pills not in therapy first time EVER testing with accommodations. Fucking cheater pieces of shit, this is all another way to gatekeep from the rich re their little shits needing to inherit so they expensive diagnoses from 5 and test that way all life when dont need it but guess what? WIth double time they score above people without! lmfao
"supposed Fancy girl" is taking me out

needing accomdations for tests isn't cheating tho. you just need extra help because your brain isn't typical of most test takers
It is when they dont need them lmfao then they go "oh no i do need them i just didnt know i had adhd until 24 and took hundreds of tests my whole life without, but the tutor said just do it" lmfao no one says people who really need it shouldnt get it, but the thing is 80%+ are people who just go "i need lsat to get into the school i want and getting double time moves me from 167 to 177 and that is worth a 300k scholarship and a job making 260k at grad instead of 80k"

I wonder if the logic games removal makes the LSAT easier or harder. Many people I’ve spoken to said that was their favorite section
@NosyBeagle: you can use something like this: https://www.talkwithfrida.com/adult-adhd-diagnosis/ and now you magically have adhd! And can get double time! All for about $300 lmfao aka you buy a 300k scholarship and a job with an extra 100k+ per year for $300. Many do this. They compete for spots, not to be the most deserving.

i think i could've conquered logic games if i gave myself more time to study. but i don't miss it tbh
NosyBeagle
11:48
$300? bruh
This is why i say everyone should get the double time test. No more accommodations, completely level playing field, aka equality of opportunity. Logic games are the funnest to study but LR is exactly the same on being able to EXPECT -0. And yes, $300 or less depending where you live! And lsac will allow that to get double time, only 3 sections, unlimited stop/start in the sessions, and 15 minute breaks lmfao you can also get it on paper!

@PremiumFrequentCrane: yeah double time is excessive since a significant part of being a lawyer is meeting deadlines, like if they gave an extra 5-10 minutes, whatever, but 1h10m to answer 25 MC questions is overkill
girl i don’t have accommodations
11:59
i do :3

time and a half

all i sent them was my 504 plan from high school nthey said bet
12:00
unmedicated tho
@FrioJGenius: good thing our top schools who feed into the top roles and most important places disagree! They say "give me the kid who scores 155 l;egit and 172 with double time, they are better than the 167 legit no double time"
okay get ur money up

There’s been about a 30% increase nation wide in law school apps this school, I believe this may just favor larger institutions & I’m curious to see if schools begin to take in larger class sizes to compensate
12:06
@ronniedoeslaw: only if employers are willing to hire more lawyers, which seems doubtful. Schools dont want unemployed grads
class sizes appear to be staying the same
