Read a random definition: after-acquired evidence

A quick definition of committee:

A committee is a group of people who are chosen to work together to investigate, discuss, and make decisions about a specific topic or issue. They are often used in organizations, clubs, and governments to help make important decisions and set policies. Committees can be made up of different numbers of people and can have different purposes, such as organizing a meeting space or overseeing financial reporting. Sometimes, a committee can be made up of just one person, while other times it can include all members of a group.

A more thorough explanation:

A committee is a group of people who are appointed or elected to perform a specific task or make decisions on behalf of a larger organization or assembly. They are responsible for investigating, overseeing, and taking action on matters referred to them by the organization they represent.

  • Legislative Committee: A committee in charge of reviewing and making recommendations on proposed laws.
  • Audit Committee: A committee responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of an organization and selecting an independent auditor.
  • Arrangements Committee: A committee responsible for organizing the physical space in which a deliberative assembly meets.

These examples illustrate how committees are used in different organizations to carry out specific tasks and responsibilities. They are an essential part of the decision-making process and help ensure that the organization operates efficiently and effectively.

@llama: your cycle confuses me, your stats are good and you applied early but all of those Rs? Is there anything weird about your app?
do you have C&F issues or something?
also ur first choice is kansas but you didnt apply there?

@RasheedWallaceFan: Hi. Yes, I waited for April LSAT, put almost all apps (which were sent really early) so that basically most of my apps were reviewed In May. Shot myself in the foot for 155 -> 161 lmao. Would not recommend 10/10
12:57
@RasheedWallaceFan: unironically, KSLS was my top choice, however by April LSAT their app had closed. It was like waiting to date ur dream partner, but waiting until you graduate uni, then by the time u graduate uni, your soul mate is already married with 2.4 kids and 1.6 dogs. Heartbreak.exe fr fr
12:58
are you R&Ring?
13:00
No, I think what I will do is flip a coin: heds NKU, tails NEL|B what u guys think bout dat. Then once 1L - if good at LS, try to transfer, if bad at LS or one of my grandiose ideas/inventions are viable, drop out and pursue.
oh so you submitted the apps with a lower lsat and then retook
got it

Most schools will hold your application for the next test score to be released into your account as well. I was notified by an admissions director that if a decision is processed they will not retroactively go back for the new score even if higher

But it says you withdrew?? :(

13:41
@Bettercaulsaul: in my experience, there is often an option on the application for you to choose whether you'd like them to review your application as-is ASAP or hold it until your new score is released. but it probably varies by school—I just remember seeing that option on at least a few app forms
2:21
While I am unsure of what option you are referring to, I personally just emailed each school and asked for them to hold my app pending my lsat score release.
