#UC Davis vs my High School
180 messages Β· Page 1 of 1 (latest)
Davis credits are super super helpful and are transferable prob worth way more than 10k
I know a fellow freshman at Davis who is taking upper div math classes and have junior standing
Honestly getting started on research early would be sooooo helpful to career in general
i mean, whats ur end goal here
basically is what im asking
do u wanna graduate early? then sure, go for it
also, i guess it's a factor if u wanna be competitive later on too
idk how u are mentally rn but also consider burning out as a factor
are u willing to commute that far for upper divs?
from what ive seen youve done all your major prep, at least in math
but havent done many GEs
uc would def transfer lol
if ccs wont transfer (out of cal state/uc system), ucs will definitely
oh yeah
alrightm, then my only concrn would be
can u handle it
i assume u can
and i hope ur hs is supporting u'
i mean in the sense of decreasing the amount of classes u need to take
yeah
im sayin like
yeah ik
i mean workload man
dont push urself too hard
i mean
its probably not hard for u
π
but yk u gotta keep it up there
that being said i guess the only issue is the commute
you will feel isolated though
socially
tru
yeah
im in cc rn right
your school just lets you leave to college for a semester??
we have an early college here, but im in the last level maths class
that's so lit
my school lets us concurrent at community colelge and then UT Dallas
which is nice
lucky bastards
if i werent borderline failign calc 3
my school allows us to DE into any ccc as long as u have a nice counselor and the ccc allows it
well u have a sexy opportunnity
i would take davis
lowk
good
HELPPPP
yeah i forget
make sure ur family relations are GOOD
good
yeah just tell her itll transfer π save money and stuff early
financially its also smart
i was worried about the workload but
it actually wont be that bad
since u wont be doing hs classes? from what ive gathered
yeah
youll be finne
ngl i wish i did IB purely because the grades come from year final tests right?
such a sexy opportunity
the social aspect of hs is the only con i can think of
take davis imo, you still have a ton of hs time left even after that. the math exposure you'll get is insane
i mean, even in uni transfer having hella advanced classes will also be isolating (not sure if i drove that point earlier)
but in terms of what OP wants to do? lowk i think davis is the right choice
yaig
o I think I can help with this
I take real analysis at [insert some t20 uni]
"Ainβt no way those credits transferring anywhere (except like a uc or something)" the credits are transferring
pure math is something very very different from school
also when a pure math class says 20+ hours of hw per week
they mean it
they rly rly mean it
I'm trying to look at uc davis course list
why are the shotr descriptions so ass π
finally, a helpfully named course
o yes we did this and a lot more
seems like a pretty approachable first year class
well, first sem
this seems like a lower workload real analysis class
you should be fine
why no 127c? seems like a sequence
ic
I would go for 127
any algebra (150) that's taken before analysis
is prob going to be meh
for us it's real analysis is a prereq for algebra
yeah it's rly high level algebra tho
no clue
mm sounds more sane
idt the math sequence here is healthy
our real analysis sounds like it might be double paced from davis...
anyway
you may be able to take the classes for free but not for credit
most unis are able to waive requirements for any reason
if you don't wanna graduate early
it's best to not come in with too many credits to keep tuition low
professors are nice
they'll likely let you audit
wait wait wait
waves
do u need the davis credit
bc u are getting off of hs for this sem
do you need a semester's worth of creits
credits
mmmm
by quarters wdym how is it split
okay
but
if u cant
get the credit
how does that look like to hs
yeah
cus i was thinking
we're pretty similar
late august to december, january to april
just random credits u would need
or if u need a credit requirement
yeah
lowk
if i were u
de too
maybe
like if u have time ofc
could probably get ur freshman/soph GEs stuff out of the way
at least for UCs and Cal States
ignoring research
if you rly like math
just do it
if not, then it's not worth
go for it and audit unless you rly want to graduate early
extremely approachable
especially since no metric spaces
i think all that was covered in ~1-1.5months in my real analysis class
that might just be because a ton of unis use analysis as the proofs course
so the only reason they require analysis as a prereq for other classes is to ensure you have the training in proofs, and not necessarily analysis itself
^^^
i got out of calc 1, 2, 3 and lin alg 1 and 2 even though i had 0 credits
online ib exists?
@tough parcel credits honestly don't matter that much just audit the class and then get the credits waived
when you go to college just be like
I alr took this class ong
and the department will prob be like ok done
credit waived, don't need real analysis to get math degree anymore
real rienmann ong
okay wait
wait
wait
i realised failing logic here
idk if yall took stats
but we gonna pull the type 1 and type 2 rejections
to remind our friends here, Type 1 is when we reject the Ho that is true
Type 2 is when we fail to reject the Ho that is false
anyway
let Ho be that if waves does not get credits, we can stilll be credited the class
see
see
if they arent credited
u have to take the class
again
so youll be sitting in lecture when u could be doing other stuff
