[heady bolt]

[quartz hazel]

hes a freshman???

bruh

[heady bolt]

^^^

[spring moth]

i think he finished freshman year

[heady bolt]

Bruh what school do u go to@normal shoal

[quartz hazel]

lol nvm then

[jade blaze]

it's an average state school

closer to top 100

[heady bolt]

Oh wtf

[jade blaze]

it's because our state school allows you to speed run the 4yr curriculum in <= 2 years.

so he and name have target grad dates

[heady bolt]

Ohhhh

Aight that's different lmao

[short cedar]

wait how tf do people finish entire 4 yr curriculum in <2 years without spamming AP and dual enroll classes in high school?

[jade blaze]

that's exactly what we did

If you have all AP physics C, Calc BC, AP CS A, and a bunch of the other core classes done with DC it's very doable to graduate in 2 yrs

[spring moth]

doesnt this apply to most state schools tbh

[jade blaze]

school also gives full rides so it's win win

[spring moth]

most state schools give out credit like candy to a baby

[jade blaze]

i suppose that's the advantage of state schools? Graduate fast af

[spring moth]

yep

[short cedar]

i finished all my core reqs with AP and DE and I still can only grad in 3, maybe 2.5 years if I dont get fucked by course registration (but im def gonna be fucked )
graduating in less than 2 years seems insane

and even if I put down expected grad in 2.5 years looks like most apps ask for uni start date so thats probably not gonna go well lol

[spring moth]

thats bc u go to umich + ur in the eng school

so theyre gonna blueball u on credit

also whats DE @short cedar ?

diff eq?

[short cedar]

school charges ivy league lvl + keeps you at school and paying tuition for as long as possible by giving no credit smh
and all so it can yeet money into ppl who throw balls

[short cedar]

I did diffeq but mich isnt giving credit for it but nah i meant dual enrollment

[spring moth]

bruh they rly down bad on giving u credits

[jade blaze]

wait how much u paying dude

50k a year?

[spring moth]

madison gave me multi and linear credits and they took my inflated credits from cc and added it normally

so i got 2 free credits trasnferred

[short cedar]

my friends are paying like 65k

[jade blaze]

BRUH

[short cedar]

im poor so "only" 25k oos

[jade blaze]

A lot of people at UTD are paying 0

i can't even iamgine

65k

bruh

[short cedar]

0 holy shit thats actually OP

bruh I shouldve applied to UTD

[spring moth]

thats bc national merit right

[jade blaze]

no

[spring moth]

?

[jade blaze]

if you have a good SAT score

and good gpa

full ride

ez

[spring moth]

how good does it have to be lol

[jade blaze]

At the time?

1460ish like 4.0ish

[short cedar]

i got national merit but mich doesnt care

[spring moth]

bruh u should have appplied dallas lol

thats instant free ride

[jade blaze]

national merit is full ride + 5.5k a semester stipend

so board paid, food paid, books paid

[spring moth]

ur TC could have been 5.5 k freshman year

[short cedar]

holy shit I couldve been buying like a 100 league skins a sem damn i missed out hard

[jade blaze]

then again we're only an average school

not a top 10-20 school

so make of it what you will

[spring moth]

now ull buy 10000 once u get quant swe interview and become a quant daddy

[short cedar]

i mean if an average school has some of the most goated people on this entire server...

[jade blaze]

outliers

[spring moth]

its the same with ucf lol

[jade blaze]

they're literally just outliers

[spring moth]

the outliers shine

a lot

source: joey and brett

[short cedar]

yeah thats true ig

[heady bolt]

Something about big fish in a little pond vs the ocean

[quartz hazel]

its not even that tbh

its just the fact that theyre dedicated

people in top schools often stop trying and get complacent

cuz of how easy they have it. but those people have much more potential than joey and brett because they're gonna hear back from more places.

its crazy how far u can go if u go to a top school and grind ur ass off (look at breadboard)

[heady bolt]

That's very fair

[sinful sleet]

Yum

[spring moth]

Naw idt this matters in college compared to hs

[spring moth]

Where did breadboard go and work at?

I thought he was a UCF dude

[quartz hazel]

she goes to stanford and was at figma, dropbox and now js

• few more

[spring moth]

Holy fuck

[quartz hazel]

shes a legend bro

[spring moth]

I thought breadboard was a he bro
