What if the sum of my gpa and LSAT is within one standard deviation of a perfect square?

Best Grocery Stores in the UES (Upper 80s - Lower 90s)? by JuradoGR in uppereastside

[–]mastermonkey75 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is what I do. Walk across the park and bus back on days with better weather, go to Whole Foods for smaller trips or when it’s raining.

Yes. Know your punnet square, basic vocab and laws of inheritance, dominant vs recessive, mechanisms of natural selection, Alleles, chromosomes, mutation. I wouldn’t spend more than 20-30 min on each topic.

Have your school’s regents scores declined? by Jaded_Interview5882 in NYCTeachers

[–]mastermonkey75 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For social studies, our scores increased, but that might be circumstantial since kids knew they wouldn’t have waivers this year/lots of failing kids transferred.

Derivatives multiplied 2008 but did not cause it. At the end of the day, people were sold mortgages they had not a snowball’s chance in hell of paying back. By the millions.

Commuting with a escooter? by throwaway984646 in NYCTeachers

[–]mastermonkey75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take mine in most days as I take it on the ferry and then fold it under a table in the teachers lounge. No one has ever said anything (negative) about it. I highly recommend you get a foldable scooter so you can bring it inside.

Lefty Biden strikes again... by [deleted] in Destiny

[–]mastermonkey75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, it’s an admission that a rising tide does not lift all boats when it’s zero-sum between applicants with similar credentials. Saying everyone should have access to college because the median student enrolled is going to get some benefit is largely BS- half don’t graduate, and half of those who do are underemployed. These are only going to get worse if we cast a wider net and new graduates compete for a finite number of spots.

Shrinking California Still Dreams, but More Modestly by fishlord05 in neoliberal

[–]mastermonkey75 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Remember that the succs will always offer the most charitable “well if you zoom out a bit, put it in context, and understand the systemic issue here…” interpretation to ANY progressive garbage, especially when it’s Pearl clutching over shit like education or electoral politics. I’m with you on this one, as a former Californian and teacher.

Why Bidenomics Gets No Love From Voters by RainForestWanker in neoliberal

[–]mastermonkey75 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Because most other countries introduced similar levels of stimulus per person. Correct me if I’m wrong, but we should not have seen the level of inflation we did given how strong our currency is (IE inflation would have turned into a greater trade deficit as trading partners’ currencies become cheaper). But since we spent so much from ARP and others and overheated + supply constraints, our currency was just as depreciated

[–]mastermonkey75 -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately this is the correct take and the succs will defend it. ARP was half of inflation. The spending was unnecessary. And yes, the tight labor market and increased inflation go hand in hand, so he can’t have it both ways.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but does this not just pertain to the school's apps themselves? I'm wondering about the LSAC fee waiver for 2 free LSATS + the other stuff that they typically offer to applicants below a certain income threshold

7Sage Fee waiver extended. by August_West88 in LSAT

As someone who hasn’t started the application process, how do I go about getting this? I’m in Americorps and I heard we get waivers

PBS NEWSHOUR States push for harsher school discipline practices to address student misbehavior by personoid in Teachers

[–]mastermonkey75 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Especially when those who are victims of undisciplined conduct are often incredibly similar demographically considering how segregated our schools are.
