Read a random definition: bad-debt reserve

A quick definition of outstanding:

Outstanding: When someone owes money and hasn't paid it back yet, we call it outstanding debt. It's like when you borrow a toy from a friend and haven't returned it yet. The toy is still outstanding. But outstanding can also mean something that has been sold to the public, like shares of a company.

A more thorough explanation:

Outstanding, adjective

  1. Refers to debts or bills that have not been paid yet.
  2. Refers to shares of a company that have been publicly issued and sold.
  • Outstanding debts: If you owe money to someone and you haven't paid it back yet, that debt is considered outstanding.
  • Outstanding shares: When a company sells shares of stock to the public, those shares are considered outstanding until they are bought back or sold.

The examples illustrate the two different meanings of the word "outstanding." In the first example, "outstanding debts" refers to money that is owed but has not been paid yet. In the second example, "outstanding shares" refers to shares of a company that have been sold to the public and are still in circulation.

And, incidentally, show NYC is more expensive (Manhattan is 33% above U.S. average, Brooklyn 16%, Queens 15%) but not super different from Chicago (5% above average), so $110K in New York is about $83K in Chicago
12:59
*110K in Manhattan = 83K in Chicago
from my experience food cant be differ by that much but rent is way way way higher in manhattan

I asked this earlier and forgot to look at the answer before it disappeared but what should be the difference between my 1st and 2nd LOCI? It’s the only school I applied to and they know I will 100% attend and what I’ve been up to since I applied

At that point just reaffirm you’re still interested and everything you said holds true I think

Do splitters need something sexy on their apps? 176 but 3.4 GPA and nothing really compelling. Decent essays, but nothing out of this world

@SpitefulAcceptablePheasant: I’m not sure what your goals are but it’s always helpful to have a strong application! You have a whole summer to add on to your profile! I think another helpful exercise could be using the search function here to see what apps with your numbers did in their wisdom to be successful at your goal schools.
