Read a random definition: surrogacy

A quick definition of solatium:

Solatium: Compensation given to someone for their emotional pain or suffering, rather than physical injury. It comes from the Latin word "solace".

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Solatium (s-lay-shee-um) is a legal term used in Scots law to refer to compensation or damages awarded for emotional distress, hurt feelings, or grief, rather than physical injury.

Example 1: In a case where a family member has been wrongfully killed, the court may award solatium to the surviving family members for their emotional pain and suffering.

Example 2: A person who has been defamed may be entitled to solatium for the harm caused to their reputation and emotional distress, in addition to any damages awarded for financial losses.

These examples illustrate how solatium is a form of compensation that is awarded for non-physical harm, such as emotional distress or reputational damage. It is intended to provide solace or comfort to the injured party, rather than to compensate for any specific financial losses or physical injuries.

@NosyBeagle: you will see as you be in this space more and more that wrong answer journal is an asisan school of thought, originating in 7sage's lsat as an esl student package

It’s obviously not the only strategy! I just think it’s helpful for a lot of people and at least worth a shot to see if it benefits you. I got a 99th percentile score and never used a wrong answer journal or blind reviewed but I’m kind of a lazy bum and it does provide value for a lot of people

One thing I personally did that I think helped me a lot was using the 7sage drill setting where you can pick only answers you’ve gotten wrong before and redo them. Then you can see if you’re getting them wrong the same way again, different way, or getting them right

@esoterica: bruh we are agreeing lol i said no need to do wrong answer journal lol but you can easily and should do the equivalent when reviewing. "Why did i get this wrong what thought process etc" it is just a waste of time to type a wrong answer journal and probably related to ai training
