In fighting games, proration is a numerical value given to a certain attack that shows what percentage 'damage penalty' you get for using the attack in a combo.
For example, let's say you have attack A with 100% proration and attack B with 80% proration, and both can combo into each other interchangeably. Chaining A->B will have no effect on the damage output by attack B because attack A has 100% proration. However, chaining B->A will have an effect on the damage output by A; B has 80% proration, so attack A will only do 80% damage in this combo. Proration effects can also be stacked, which is the reason why button-mashing comboers often find themselves doing very little damage near the end of their string of attacks.

To find out what moves are good to start combos with, you should not only know how slow the move is and what it chains into, but you should also keep in mind the proration it has.

Get the proration mug.Woodside Priory is a college-prep school for 6-12. While the tuition is undeniably high, it is nowhere near the snob level of Menlo or even Castilleja. While Menlo and Castilleja are excellent academically and in terms of sports, the student body is mostly extremely rich. The Woodside Priory school pretty much accepts everybody, and it has a very diverse community including boarding students from all over the world. Priory is unusual in that it is a "nice" school- even the "quiet kids" or the "nerds" or the "losers" have friends. Teachers don't judge you based on your wealth or looks, same with students- everyone judges you on if you're nice or not pretty much. It's a good school with good academics, with graduates attending schools as prestigious as Harvard or Stanford. Famous for the five monks that live on campus, Woodside Priory is a catholic school that accepts people of all religions.
