unit pricing

Read a random definition: particeps

A quick definition of unit pricing:

Unit pricing is a way of pricing things based on how much of it you are buying. Instead of paying a flat price for a whole contract, you pay for each individual unit. For example, if you are buying apples, you might pay per pound instead of a set price for the whole bag. This helps you know exactly how much you are paying for each item and can help you make better decisions when shopping.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Unit pricing is a system where items are priced per unit instead of having a fixed price for the entire contract.

Example: Let's say a construction company is building a road. Instead of charging a flat fee for the entire project, they might charge per unit of road built. For example, they might charge $10 per square foot of road built. This way, the client only pays for the exact amount of work done.

Another example: A grocery store might use unit pricing to show the cost per ounce or pound of a product. This allows customers to compare prices between different brands and sizes of the same product.

Unit pricing is a fair way to charge for work or products because it ensures that the customer only pays for what they actually receive. It also allows for easy comparison between different options.

Baylor status date disappeared, does that mean anything?
email from lawhub says "One of the law schools you applied to has updated your application status." But I don't notice any changes when I log in. Anyone have experience with that?
17:52
@AromaticTroubledDormouse: yes, go the the specific app and it should be either marked with a dot or incomplete. many times for me it was the instructions

@RustyWrangler: apparently the date change means they've made a decision?

So I usually try to stay out of reading tea leaves regarding status checkers & the like for my own sake but this one has always piqued my interest bc apparently it's just 1 date change and then they give you your decision
when y'all say lawhub, you're just talking about lsac, right? ._.
Basically. You can check your application status through lawhub, which is sort of a dashboard that a lot of schools (Penn, Georgetown, etc.) use instead of their own application status tracker. https://app.lawhub.org/
@llama unfortunately I still don't notice any change, but thank you for your idea
I got a 173, am I getting into WashU with their new medians? 173 -50th 176 - 75th
18:26
@couldvescoredhigher: very likely.
@llama: appreciate it. It seems like as long as their 50th% doesn't go up next year I'll be fine
18:28
did you redact your gpa?
1a2b3c4d26z
18:31
Wait so does anyone have any info on this re UMich date change? Decision soon?
Yea I applied redacted gpa, with 5 years WE
But I know they're hyper focused on numbers
18:33
@couldvescoredhigher: nice yeah I cant see you not getting an A.
18:34
UMich- I be there is some movement this week. A few things point to a wave
@llama: any guess on what the odds are that their 50th LSAT goes up? And then all of us 173s are fucked cause they want 174s
18:36
@couldvescoredhigher: so their '23 & '22 deltas for LSAT: 25pth: -2
18:37
median: +1 and 75pth: +1. I bet their median and 75pth increases one pt.
Jeez, so I might be out of luck if that trend continues. RIP
Their 50th stayed the same this year, so maybe they've maxed out on the potential to keep that moving up. Only Harvard and Yale above them now
18:41
@couldvescoredhigher: If I had to guess they will try to increase their 75pth.
18:41
I cannot wait to see the 2024 509reports.
Have you seen this spreadsheet? Gives an idea at least for the GPA/LSAT that will be on 509s
18:45
@couldvescoredhigher: no thanks for the link. I forgot they do a pre 509 numbers. Thank you.
No prob. Interesting stuff in here. Yale median actually went down and
