Would you chew off your own finger for a 180?

Um, yes. Cost analysis wise, how much would it really cost to fix the finger, vs. how much would you save with your full ride? Economics my friends, economics...

Probably not, but I'd take a full-on chin shot from Rashad Evans for one.

I play musical instruments, losing a finger for some arbitrary status marker is not worth being unable to play those instruments for the rest of my life.

There are thousands of children in China who would chew off your entire hand just to take the LSAT. Americans are spoiled. We all want to have our LSAT and eat our fingers too.

It's a shame Peter North is no longer around to respond to this one.

Sorry. I just thought that your crime deserved some punishment, Razumikhin.

Sure I'd chew it off for the 180. I have health insurance for a reason. Get the junk sewed back on and have an awesome bar story to tell as a bonus.

Telling said story may keep you from passing the character and fitness portion, because you'd seem crazy.

We're all a little crazy. /twitch

Seriously - I christmas treed a psychological exam for a PD and the psychologist gave me a review and asked me, "Well, it seems here that you put: "You like to hurt yourself sometimes.".. can you tell me about that?"

I looked at her with an eyebrow up and told her, "Yes, I am totally emo." and sighed.

I passed.
