load

Read a random definition: Fair Labor Standards Act

A quick definition of load:

Term: LOAD

Definition: Load refers to an extra amount of money added to the price of a security or insurance premium to cover the sales commission and expenses. For example, when you buy a mutual fund, you may have to pay a load, which is a fee that goes to the person who sold you the fund. This fee is usually a percentage of the amount you invest. The load can be charged at the beginning of your investment (front-end load) or when you sell your investment (back-end load).

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: An additional amount added to the price of a security or insurance premium to cover sales commission and expenses.

Example: A mutual fund may have a front-end load of 5%, meaning that 5% of the investment amount will be deducted as a sales commission and expenses.

Explanation: When investing in a mutual fund or purchasing insurance, a load may be added to cover the costs of the salesperson and other expenses. This load is typically a percentage of the investment amount and can vary depending on the product and the salesperson. The example illustrates how a front-end load works and how it affects the investment amount.

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

@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

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.

shooooot
hey y'all so im gonna be honest im completely new to all this, i kinda bullshitted and took the LSAT and i have no clue what my odds are of getting into schools. 163 LSAT, 3.17 GPA, and a double major in undergrad i may write about in an addendum
Based on the list I see you made on your profile, you will need to make significant LSAT improvement for those schools to be contenders. Your primary focus should probably be working to get your LSAT practice tests up to a number you are happy with before you retest, and then test until you get a score you like. Don't rush an application cycle or apply late since those will hurt your odds of getting into your school as a splitter. Good luck!
oh that was literally just random stuff i dont know how this works
thank you so much!
im retaking in 4 days, and maybe again in august, and i was gonna apply to see what i got, and if i didnt like it i was going to wait till next cycle and work on improving my GPA

Ruminating on how if you have a job you love it’s really chic and charming to refuse to retire but if you have a job you hate but can’t retire you are a cautionary tale on why you need to start saving at an early age
