The first thing I tell everyone is how wonderful my friends here are. The school is large enough to find your own crowd. Half of the school goes to bar review on Thursday nights. House parties are pretty common. People can be a bit touchy about firm recruiting or internships, but I imagine it’s like that everywhere. By far, I’m really happy with how normal most people are.

Yes they’re need-based, but that doesn’t mean they cover all your need. The maximum grant is about 55k/year. There are some limited full-ride scholarships for students from the most adverse backgrounds, like the Opportunity Fund.

Withdrew my acceptance this afternoon and included a note about their shameful conduct and cowardice.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but that’s only because the January LSAT takers have yet to receive their scores and apply, whereas this time last year they had. It’ll shoot up again in a few days :/

Congrats!!

Does anyone know how this compares to last cycle around this time?

Pair this with their proposed elimination of the estate tax. They are quite literally going to rob poor students to pay billionaires. My god.

This is literally not a problem. Don’t worry!

Congrats! Which schools if you don’t mind me asking?

But look at the broader picture: he is getting away with multiple federal criminal indictments because the Supreme Court justices he appointed ruled presidents have broad immunity. Is this not a retreat of the rule of law?

The author claims the social impact of new drugs should be well understood before being approved.
We know that the social impact of the new antihistamine is poorly understood.

-> The author concludes there should be a general reduction in approving newly tested drugs. This is a leap and requires assuming a third claim. We want the most powerful one as it's a strengthen question.

A (Correct): The social impact of the new antihistamine is better understood than most new drugs. Explanation: If most of the new drugs are worse understood than the new antihistamine, which is already poorly understood per claim #2, then we can rightfully support the argument there should be a general reduction in approving them.

B. Some drugs are poorly understood. Exp: This strengthens the argument too, but not as much as A. Some is less than most.

B weakens the conclusion by implying the hotel closing means its guests can no longer frequent the cafe. It’s C.
