A quick definition of scyra:

Term: SCYRA

Definition: Scyra is an old word that means "county" or "shire". It was used a long time ago to refer to a specific area of land and the people who lived there. So, when someone said "scyra", they were talking about a place and the people who called it home.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Scyra (pronounced shy-rə) is a word that comes from Law Latin and means "shire." It has two meanings:

  1. A county
  2. The people who live in a county

Examples:

  • The county of Sussex was once known as the Scyra of Sussex.
  • The Scyra of Kent were known for their skilled craftsmen.

These examples show how the word "scyra" was used in the past to refer to a county and its inhabitants. The first example tells us that Sussex was once called the Scyra of Sussex, which means it was known as a county. The second example tells us that the people who lived in Kent were known for their skilled craftsmen, and were therefore referred to as the Scyra of Kent.

Tell us what's important to you
@RasheedWallaceFan: your gpa is above all medians, so apply broadly
Okay thank you for the input, the other thing im struggling with is just making a school list in general. I am insecure so im like do i have to apply to 5 low ranked schools just in case? I guess I am trying to figure out where the "safety" cutoff is and my list right now is 25 schools so idk if thats too much
@RasheedWallaceFan: 25 is on the high end, but you should apply to however many you feel comfortable with. imo, a safety is anywhere you are well above both medians. you can look at my school list for inspo if you'd like
you shouldn't apply to anywhere you wouldn't realistically go if it was your only offer
for sure, thank you a lot. Have fun at michigan that will be awesome!

i do them in between studying to keep sane
@RasheedWallaceFan: take your list and research the city, campus, tuition, bar passage, employment by sector, etc.!!! it might help you narrow down your school choices
also don't pay much attention to the people on reddit. there's genuinely good advice but there's a ton of people who are just energy vampires (average reddit user)

The real reason why lawyers are alchoholics... Because there is so much of a wait time between tests and scores.

i already became one in undergrad so ill fit right in
Are the 7sage app requirements as far as essays go accurate? I would love to spend my summer preparing my applications but I dont want to waste time writing essays that wont be there. Is there a way to know what will be on the apps, or when those apps will be available to view? Or should I just focus on my PS and DS for now?
@RasheedWallaceFan: they were accurate for me, but school requirements change year to year and there's no way for anyone to know for sure
