You want to talk about having basis but your logic also a bit flawed sia. |
Not the original poster, but he's not completely wrong dude so I don't know what you're talking about. Use common sense. Each year got 2 or 3 S.C. That means from each cohort on average, should have about 3 people get S.C. And if each cohort got 500 people, then it means it is slightly < than 1%. Not quite what the initial poster said, but not completely off either. You can apply the same logic and application of math with judicial appointees - his numbers as a gross generalisation are not completely off. So he's not exactly right but he's not very far off either.
Not rocket science. Geez. No wonder the common refrain from lawyers that "I cannot do Math."
