A quick definition of horsehead:

Term: HORSEHEAD

Definition: A horsehead is a type of equipment used in the oil and gas industry to pump oil from underground to the surface. It is also called a pumpjack. It helps to bring the oil up when there isn't enough pressure to push it to the surface on its own.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A horsehead, also known as a pumping unit or pumpjack, is a piece of equipment used in the oil and gas industry to pump oil to the surface. It is used when the pressure difference between the formation and the borehole is not strong enough to cause oil to rise to the surface.

  • A horsehead is typically made up of a large metal frame with a motor and a series of rods and pumps.
  • When the motor is turned on, the rods and pumps move up and down, creating suction that pulls the oil to the surface.
  • Oil wells that use horseheads can be found all over the world, from Texas to Saudi Arabia.

These examples illustrate how a horsehead works and where it is used in the oil and gas industry. The metal frame, motor, rods, and pumps all work together to create the necessary suction to bring the oil to the surface. Horseheads are used in oil wells all over the world, wherever the pressure difference between the formation and the borehole is not strong enough to bring the oil to the surface on its own.

@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?
RasheedWallaceFan
12:53
do you have C&F issues or something?
RasheedWallaceFan
12:55
also ur first choice is kansas but you didnt apply there?
llama
12:55
@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
llama
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

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.
RasheedWallaceFan
13:10

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

I vote NEL-Boston so we can be friends :D
ParallelAgreeableOrangutan
13:34
But it says you withdrew?? :(

@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
