market manipulation

Read a random definition: extraordinary writ

A quick definition of market manipulation:

Market manipulation is when someone tries to make it look like a lot of people are buying or selling a stock, in order to make the price go up or down. This is illegal and against the rules of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. It's like cheating in a game, and can hurt other people who are trying to invest in the stock market.

A more thorough explanation:

Market manipulation is the illegal practice of artificially raising or lowering the price of a security by creating the illusion of active trading. This is done to deceive investors and make a profit.

For example, a group of investors may collude to buy a large number of shares of a particular stock, driving up the price. They may then sell their shares at the inflated price, making a profit while leaving other investors with losses.

Market manipulation is prohibited by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which makes it illegal to engage in any practice that deceives investors or manipulates the market. This law is designed to protect investors and ensure that the stock market operates fairly and transparently.

I personally loved LSAT Demon but I did not get a 180. I find a lot of people with higher scores 175+ advocate 7Sage while the 165-175 range is LSAT Demon. However I have seen several 175+ people come out of LSAT Demon. I like LSAT Demon because I used them and listen to their YouTube videos and they have a simple website but everyone should also consider 7Sage.

Fuck just got an A from a school I withdrew from. Lmfao. I feel bad for em.
LSAT Demon is more comprehensive I would say. And the interface is a lot easier for people who don't really have that much time. It's also more fun I think haha. Feels more like a game
Also anybody have any idea whether or not UMich will look at score updates? I think I might retake the LSAT to see if I can get a higher score to get off the waitlist :') In my head it's definitely that LSAT score

@HomelessCuteImpala: it certainly can't hurt! If they don't look at it directly, you can always reference it in a LOCI
