Definition: Prorate means to divide or distribute something proportionately. For example, if you and your friend share a pizza, you might prorate the cost based on how many slices each of you ate. This way, you each pay a fair amount. Proration can also be used for things like taxes, where the amount owed is divided between different parties based on their share of the responsibility.

Term: PRORATE
Definition: To divide, assess, or distribute proportionately.
Example: The rent for the apartment was prorated based on the number of days the tenant lived there in the month.
Explanation: This means that the rent was divided and calculated based on the number of days the tenant actually lived in the apartment during the month. If the tenant only lived there for half the month, they would only be responsible for paying half of the monthly rent. This is an example of prorating because the rent was divided proportionately based on the amount of time the tenant spent in the apartment.
Related Word: Proration (noun) - the act of prorating.

That's demonstrably not true. I've gotten feelers and others in this chat have as well. Not sure why you're asking questions when you clearly aren't interested in the answers

@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.
