A quick definition of full hearing:

A full hearing is a legal meeting where a judge or decision-maker listens to evidence and arguments from both sides to make a decision. It can be open to the public and may involve witnesses testifying. There are different types of full hearings, such as those in criminal cases to determine if someone should be released before trial, or in family law cases to decide child custody or abuse allegations. The purpose of a full hearing is to ensure that everyone has a fair chance to present their case and that the decision is based on all the available information.

A more thorough explanation:

A full hearing is a legal proceeding where a judge or decision-maker listens to evidence and arguments from both sides to make a decision on a matter. It can be open to the public and may involve witnesses testifying.

Examples of full hearings include:

  • A court hearing to decide the admissibility of DNA evidence in a murder case
  • An administrative hearing where a person presents arguments to an agency decision-maker regarding zoning variations
  • A legislative hearing where legislators receive testimony about proposed legislation, such as gun control

In family law, a full hearing can refer to a trial or examination of facts relating to child custody or child abuse and neglect. It can also include adjudication hearings, dispositional hearings, and permanency hearings.

i know its hard to know because I haven't taken LSAT yet, but Im going to graduate with a 3.4. Idk if id write an addendum for my gpa because i just slacked off for a lot of college unfortunately. Plan is to start studying for lsat in October, and then take a gap year to get WE. T14 isn't even on my radar, but from people who know and understand the admission process better probably, am i cooked at even getting into a T50. I know lsat score is huge but reading people get rejected while having 3.8+ is anxiety inducing
23:25
@Sagamore: you can do applicant search to get closer results but there are plenty of ppl with a 3.3-3
23:25
3.4 that got into t50s-t20s (sorry i pressed send early)
23:26
i would just focus on maximizing ur lsat score
we always talk about fo pm but never about fo am

Don’t know if I’m about to make things worse but hang in there! If you’re stressed out get to your nearest trampoline and start jumping! It’s better than therapy! Hopefully you’re under some stars!
