inchoate right

Read a random definition: beyond a reasonable doubt

A quick definition of inchoate right:

An inchoate right is a right that is not fully developed or matured yet. It is like a seed that has been planted but has not yet grown into a tree. For example, when someone applies for a patent, they have an inchoate right until the patent is granted. This means that they have the potential to have a property right, but it has not yet been fully realized.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: An inchoate right is a right that has not fully developed, matured, or vested. For example, in patents, an inventor's right has not yet vested into a property right because the patent application is pending.

Example: John has an idea for a new invention and files a patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). Until the USPTO approves the patent application, John's right to the invention is an inchoate right. He has not yet fully developed or matured his right to the invention.

Explanation: The example illustrates how an inchoate right works in the context of patents. Until the patent application is approved, the inventor's right to the invention is not fully developed or matured. This means that the inventor cannot yet enforce their rights against others who may try to use or copy their invention.

It's a beautiful thing though. Even people here rn getting ready to apply next cycle are kind of too early. They're setting themselves up to be stressed waiting for the most part.

A strong app is a strong app. Outside of a few schools (Duke) timing really doesn't matter all that much,
i think its normal, especially for splitters

I will say money is less available later in the cycle
and seats

@SplitOnMe: true true but also yes and no! Initial offers will go down but the money's still there.
stats are important, but not everything in an app, tell a compelling cohesive story through your PS, DS, and interviews
some schools have big enough endowments anyone eligible will get the same award

It shows that the users who got into the most competitive schools even had errors in their materials! No one's perfect. Not stats wise or even materials wise. Just be cool ✌️ it's gonna be good!

Should I send my second LOCI a few days before or a few days after their deposit date? I’ve made it clear I will 100% attend and wanna say I’ll put down a deposit same day
i believe i sent mine the day of or the day after
i think as long as you can get it in time for them to have it by the time they review WL applicants, i guess if their communications makes it clear that it takes a couple days for that to go through then a couple days in advance
