[gleaming coral]

[ripe plinth]

[gleaming coral]

Ruin my sterling 4.0 gpa

[reef grove]

well it’s government but i’m specifically focusing on the IR subset of it

[ripe plinth]

ah

hopefully thats me too

[reef grove]

they don’t have IR separately </3

[ripe plinth]

[gleaming coral]

I heard Georgetown is good for IR

[ripe plinth]

👀

[gleaming coral]

Why u copy me bro

[ripe plinth]

georgetown the 🐐

[gleaming coral]

What you playing at

[ripe plinth]

???

[gleaming coral]

This brain

[ripe plinth]

dawg trippin

[gleaming coral]

Is for me only

Don't need any foreigners

[ripe plinth]

damn

[gleaming coral]

I'm joking

Cmon broskie

[ripe plinth]

such an ameircan term

[reef grove]

the best arguably

[ripe plinth]

"foreigner"

[gleaming coral]

Nah

[ripe plinth]

boutta become an illegal alien next

😨

[gleaming coral]

Other countries have their own words for foreigners

I've heard worse

In other languages

Where foreigner is almost a slur

[ripe plinth]

we're gonna get annexed so...

[gleaming coral]

Where y from

[ripe plinth]

real

[ripe plinth]

Canada

[reef grove]

gov is more flexible tho and with all the recent fed worker layoffs that might be for the best yk, you have other options

[gleaming coral]

Ah

[ripe plinth]

WHAT THE FUCK IS A MILEEEEEEE

[gleaming coral]

My great grandpa was canadian

And my granduncle lives in New Brunswick

[reef grove]

gtown kinda pigeonholes you if you do IR

[gleaming coral]

Dyk new brunswick

[ripe plinth]

yeah but like

im all heavy in that

[gleaming coral]

You could go be a freaking Fulbright scholar

[ripe plinth]

100% PURE IR

yk

[gleaming coral]

Mkc

Mic*

Dyk new brunswick

[ripe plinth]

ive kinda already accepted haravrd doesnt watn me

[ripe plinth]

yeah

[gleaming coral]

It's a province

[ripe plinth]

georgetown pls <3

[ripe plinth]

indeed

[gleaming coral]

My male relative lives there

You should meet him

And say hi to a fellow canadian

[ripe plinth]

i unfortunately live

very far away

from your male relative

[gleaming coral]

Where

Bc?

[ripe plinth]

ontario

[gleaming coral]

Oh

[reef grove]

yeah makes sense, i mean gtown was my second choice and i didn’t commit to harvard for a while bc i wanted to see if i got in georgetown, but the caliber of IR education is at the same level id argue, even if it’s not at DC

[gleaming coral]

That's very generic

[ripe plinth]

ok

[gleaming coral]

He once took a motorcycle from Toronto to New brunswick

[ripe plinth]

[gleaming coral]

You got this

You can make the trip

[ripe plinth]

yeah

are you domestic or intl?

[gleaming coral]

Did u do like Ed or

[reef grove]

domestic

[ripe plinth]

damn

good shit

[gleaming coral]

His profile does not indicate international

[ripe plinth]

ay good for you tho harvard rea is NO joke

[gleaming coral]

What is the Harvard campus like

I've never been

[reef grove]

[reef grove]

REA yeah

[solemn panther]

I’ve never even been to Boston

[reef grove]

oh wait for georgetown

i did RD but withdrew

[solemn panther]

Maybe that’s why I’m so attracted to Harvard

[gleaming coral]

I've never been norther nc so like

[solemn panther]

It’s like a fantasized version in my head

[gleaming coral]

It seems very cold

Ill become pale and sickly there

[reef grove]

pretty, their Widener library is giant and super restricted and i can’t wait to go

[gleaming coral]

End up talking like Matt damon

[reef grove]

literally miles of bookshelves

[gleaming coral]

Should I talk Abt that

In my interview

[solemn panther]

I need to look like him

😭

[gleaming coral]

How my life's ambition was to go to southie

[solemn panther]

Wait

[surreal pewter]

Is an interview random

[solemn panther]

NOT MATT DAMON

why did I think it was Matt bomer

God my brain is cooked today

[gleaming coral]

https://tenor.com/view/matt-matt-damon-gif-5831371

If anyone gets that reference

You get a dub from the one and only me

[gleaming coral]

I have no idea cuz I have terrible stats and I got one

[ripe plinth]

omg is it a sign if you were viewed by harvard people on linkedin within the past month????!!!!! 🤯

[reef grove]

@ripe plinth you have to get in so we can be international relations buddies together

i can share my premium geoguessr acct w you

LMAO

[gleaming coral]

Northeastern kids r freaking out rn

I actually applied there rd too

That's in Boston as well

[ripe plinth]

OMG

LMAOOOOO

YES!!!

i had to resort to ghetto geoguessr....

[reef grove]

a fate worse than death

[ripe plinth]

mhm

that and the country guessing game

and tetris

and sudoku

and nyt connections...

[reef grove]

bro i do the worldle and the globle every day

[ripe plinth]

bro the little games r so fun

[reef grove]

my mini crossword best time is like 18 seconds, i avg like 30 tho

[ripe plinth]

esp when its like the most boring english lit class

[reef grove]

real

[ripe plinth]

no wonder why u got into harvard

[reef grove]

i have a little checklist of the little games i do in boring classes

[ripe plinth]

with stats like that 🔥

[ripe plinth]

LMAO

[gleaming coral]

Did y put that on ur app?

[ripe plinth]

IB got me grinding tetris bro

[reef grove]

only if there are no like actors or singers tho, im not a huge pop culture whiz

[ripe plinth]

yeah

[reef grove]

i should’ve

i’m so indescribably bad at tetris

[ripe plinth]

im really bad at the crossword

campus diversity!!!

my no lifer tetris addiction gonna get me thru those gates trust 💯

[reef grove]

all the smart kids play tetris fr

i feel like an outsider

[ripe plinth]

i think that depends on location

[reef grove]

i play wordscapes </3

[ripe plinth]

we should switch schools

I get ridiculed for having a high tetris score

[reef grove]

i live in the cornfields 😭

[ripe plinth]

but those crossword goats are like heroes

[ripe plinth]

I like corn

[reef grove]

corn is delicious

[ripe plinth]

ok but then again i feel like cornfields make up most of the US

[reef grove]

i live i. like the true midwest

[ripe plinth]

where is the midwest

i always get confused

[reef grove]

i actually drew a map

bc so many ppl lump in like illinois

like chicago ain’t midwest to me

[obsidian nexus]

bro what about wisconsin and minnesota

[reef grove]

minnesota borders canada how is that midwest 😭

[ripe plinth]

i thought midwest was lik

[gleaming coral]

thats the prarie

[ripe plinth]

vertically

like middle of the west

[obsidian nexus]

well midwest is a manifest destiny misnomer

but like

idk 😭

[reef grove]

idk to me midwest is middle of the country + a certain vibe yk

like minnesota and iowa have completely different vibes to me

[ripe plinth]

lmao to me theyre all just corn

😋

[gleaming coral]

hello guys

[reef grove]

hello blue

[gleaming coral]

midwest is like

[obsidian nexus]

this is fair

[gleaming coral]

from ohio to like kansas

[ripe plinth]

wouldnt that be mid east

[reef grove]

ohio is way too far east

[obsidian nexus]

i mean the traditional midwest is like

[gleaming coral]

like ohio avoiding kentucky and below and norther than like oklahoma

[obsidian nexus]

the part that’s around the great lakes

[reef grove]

it’s gotta be in the middle and toward the west imo

[obsidian nexus]

and then a little below and to the left

[gleaming coral]

yeah ok we can say ohio is like great lakes

then we got like kansas, nebraska, missouri, the dakotas

[reef grove]

i can compromise w anything west of chicago

[gleaming coral]

minnesota

yeah that works

and more north than oklahoma

[reef grove]

yeah

some ppl lump in arkansas

[obsidian nexus]

officially it’s like

Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin
as defined by the Census Bureau

[reef grove]

but as a former southerner i think it’s more south

[obsidian nexus]

like this is actually what the census says

but it’s lowkey not mid or west

[reef grove]

michigan is crazy work

[obsidian nexus]

ah well americans name anything anything

[obsidian nexus]

like the part you circled is like

great plains

i agree that that’s where the midwest should be tho

[gleaming coral]

where

where in the south are you Kaz

I MUST KNOW

[obsidian nexus]

like why is the midwest in the upper east

[reef grove]

i used to live in mississippi

[gleaming coral]

because it was west back when we were expanding

[reef grove]

yeah i can see that

[gleaming coral]

oh well glad you don't anymore

i'm from georgia

[reef grove]

savannah?

[obsidian nexus]

yes

manifest destiny ahh

[gleaming coral]

hell nah Athens

[ripe plinth]

🦅

[gleaming coral]

whatcha talking abt savannah for

[reef grove]

lmao one of my friends is going to college in savannah

[obsidian nexus]

illinois what an enigma you are

[gleaming coral]

good for them

[reef grove]

illinois just wants to be a part of everything huh

[gleaming coral]

i've never been to savvanh ngl

[obsidian nexus]

FACTS

[reef grove]

serious FOMO

[gleaming coral]

chicago

i wonde what its like out west

i wonder if its less racist

more progressive

more accepting

[reef grove]

depends where you go tbh

[gleaming coral]

less christian

i like to play a game whenver I drive thru georgia and alabama

how many churches r there per mile

[reef grove]

like in rural parts of the midwest it’s definitely a lot more conservative but there are some big cities where it’s more progressive

[gleaming coral]

i wonder if they talk weird

minnisotans do

[reef grove]

midwest has like a neutral accent

[gleaming coral]

i have a neutral accent

cept i say yall

[reef grove]

same lol

[gleaming coral]

and idk

i don't have a drawl tho

i used to live in florida

[reef grove]

they pronounce certain words weird tho, like roof sounds like ruff

[gleaming coral]

i have a standard panhandle accent

[gleaming coral]

tha'ts reserved for... foreigners

[reef grove]

lmaooo

[gleaming coral]

theyre not real americans

get them out

make room for us

the proper american speakers

[reef grove]

i’m not a real american ☹️

don’t have my citizenship smh

[gleaming coral]

what

[reef grove]

i moved to america when i was very young

[gleaming coral]

have you decided to spend the rest of your life here

in this glorious country

[reef grove]

yeah prolly

gonna serve my glorious nation as a diplomat yk

[gleaming coral]

then

you are american

more american than those dudes who don't vote

and don't sign up for the draft

american isn't a stae of citizenship or not

it is deciding that this country is your country

and you belong here

not there

and you are giving your life, your potential to this country

some peop le don't get tomake that choice

but you did

you didn't have to be here

but you chose to be

that what makes you american

america deserves you

[near jetty]

I had my ao interview today

Thank you to everyone that gave advice

[restive mural]

Omg congrats, do you mind sharing a bit abt what they asked

[ripe plinth]

2nd interview?

[near jetty]

Yes

[near jetty]

Yeah sure

It was mostly just getting to know me further

Things like tell me about yourself, some questions relating to my school, a time I had to work with others, what I like to do in my free time, why harvard, a challenge I've faced, etc

I've heard that some people's aos asked specific questions about little details in their essays, but it wasn't really like that for me. The questions were more broad and conversational

[obsidian nexus]

yeah this checks out

mine asked one specific question about an ec but apart from that it was all broad

[bleak otter]

yea

some just go off a list

[near jetty]

Yeah pretty similar for me

I'm grateful for the opportunity but also I don't want to be hopeful and get crushed in the end

[livid prawn]

hi

[reef grove]

[livid prawn]

thanks 🙂

[molten glen]

The fact that you said universidad like Spanish but that’s India is sending me

[gleaming coral]

guys should I used the stuff i responded with in my app in my interview

also is it wrong for me to not wanna go here cuz i'm worried my gpa will tank while I'm there cuz I am not that good

[onyx zodiac]

why do you care about your GPA

not to say that you shouldnt

but how important is it

[gleaming coral]

med school so

like important

[onyx zodiac]

pretty sure like 90% of people who apply to med school from harvard get into at least one

[gleaming coral]

hopefully

but idk

i'll have to get in

and i prob wont

[onyx zodiac]

k

good luck

[gleaming coral]

thanks

[reef grove]

the alumn won’t know what you put so you can talk abt it yeah

[reef grove]

i’ve heard there’s a lot of grade inflation but i might be wrong lol

[gleaming coral]

Well

How else do the legacies graduate

[onyx zodiac]

there is grade inflation but you still need to work hard to get As

[gleaming coral]

The kinda questions to ask

[onyx zodiac]

it just means that you won't get a C to B in any class

[gleaming coral]

Well that's good

[onyx zodiac]

essentially

B+ to A range

[reef grove]

makes sense, it also depends on the classes you choose right? the ppl that gave me a tour told me they were taking like barely any classes 💀

[gleaming coral]

Oh so getting a good gpa is ez

Why

[onyx zodiac]

yes

[wet owl]

But an A+ is still hard?

[wet owl]

most legacies ik r hella smart

[gleaming coral]

Is was a joke

God

[wet owl]

I'm not arguing obv

[onyx zodiac]

no A+s

[wet owl]

Sorry? I didn't get it lol

[onyx zodiac]

you can't get an A+ in a class

[wet owl]

wtffff

[pallid galleon]

Harvard is known for grade inflation

I’m p sure

No idea tho, but just what I heard from other friends at Harvard

[wet owl]

I thought I could graduate with a 4.0 (here u can only get a 4.0 if u get A+ in every subjects)

[wet owl]

I saw some people online saying that there's no grade inflation in most engineering/math classes idk if that's true

[obsidian nexus]

i assume A is just 4.0

our high school doesn’t do A+

[wet owl]

neither does ours but here u need a 95+ on every class to get a 4.0 in college

which would be insane at harvard since classes here are wayyy easier

in college

[rugged vessel]

grade inflation is lowkey a scam sometimes

ok ftmp no its not but its dependent on a lot of things

some classe syou can completely rely on it (gem's, which are mostly geneds i feel)

some classes are clearly pushing you in the direction of getting the better grade, but you sitll have to put a lot of work in like its not easy (cough cough intro stem classes)

like just put in 100% effort and ur probably fine but damn its still a struggle

then some classes yeah there aint no grade inflation lol but theres def no weedout classes here

[reef grove]

math 55 is a grade inflating class guys trust

easy A+

take it for a free 4.0

[onyx zodiac]

lmfao

a little true because most people copy off of a few people's floated psets

exams are take home

[reef grove]

is taking math 55 the strat

[onyx zodiac]

only if you can handle the content

i didnt take it

maybe someone else can answer

[wet owl]

that's awesome

[gleaming coral]

Harvard takes no AP credut

Make sense they wanna squeeze every last drop out of you ig

[wet owl]

Realistically tho AP exams r easier than college exams

[gleaming coral]

My god that means I'll have to take calc again

Bro noooo

Ok #superokififail

[wet owl]

They are APs are easy

[vast crypt]

Nah

[gleaming coral]

Do they take transfer credit?

[vast crypt]

Depends

Some are def harder

[wet owl]

my school doesn't offer APs but I studied off a practice AP test and it was way easier than the stuff we got on our exam

[gleaming coral]

Yeah

[onyx zodiac]

i mean

[gleaming coral]

That's the way those things work

[onyx zodiac]

APs are 100% easier

definitely

lol

[gleaming coral]

You do harder practice

[onyx zodiac]

i don't think that's subjective at all

[dreamy lynx]

I feel like BC was much easier than 1b from what I’ve seen

[wet owl]

yeah

[gleaming coral]

So when it comes to the real test it's ez

[onyx zodiac]

i mean it's technically subjective but i think most people would say it's true

[dreamy lynx]

Although I wasn’t in 1B it’s just from what I’ve seen

[vast crypt]

I think it depends on the class because gen chem 1 was significantly easier for me than ap chem

[wet owl]

I don't take APs but I'm saying they were way easier than both my school tests + college tests

[gleaming coral]

AP have more structure, college is a lot more subjective and random

[vast crypt]

Gen chem 1 also had very different content so it wasn’t because I took AP chem

[wet owl]

thank god I don't have to take chem again

[onyx zodiac]

i've not really taken an equivalent harvard course that is somehow easier than the AP course

that corresponds to it

[vast crypt]

😭 I love chem!

[dreamy lynx]

College is pretty structured imo

[gleaming coral]

Is it ok to hate everything I wanna study

[gleaming coral]

Maybe Harvard the one I'm at rn can vary wildly between professir

[vast crypt]

I mean why do you want to study it if you hate it

[vast crypt]

Yeah same

[wet owl]

I'll probably retake Calc 2 instead of jumping to Multivariable calc for a GPA boost lmao

[onyx zodiac]

generally speaking harvard courses just cover more stuff period lol

[vast crypt]

Ours have structure but sometimes they go a bit wild

[onyx zodiac]

that sounds pretty elitist but i think that's generally true

[dreamy lynx]

You could just finish your multi req tho

[vast crypt]

I think college classes in general cover an insane amount of content

[gleaming coral]

Because I wanna know it and learn it. It's like u learn coding cuz u like making games u just don't like the whole lesrning+effort part

[wet owl]

u gotta be kidding me I'm doing thermodynamics rn and I hate it (still better than organic tho)

[vast crypt]

I’m doing Thermo too

AP chem thermo was way better

[gleaming coral]

Come w me to my multicultural lit class we can cry tgthr

[vast crypt]

College Thermo is hater

[vast crypt]

You don’t hate it then you’re just challenged by it

[gleaming coral]

Ig 😭

I like most people

Am incredibly effort adverse

[wet owl]

chem is mentally challenging for me

[gleaming coral]

Idk how I even got to this point

My god Harvard don't take me I don't deserve it

[vast crypt]

Gen chem is not my fav

I think I will enjoy orgo next quarter

[gleaming coral]

Ruby ur a mod what

Crazy

[vast crypt]

Yeah

[gleaming coral]

Cool

[vast crypt]

That’s why I’m on this thread

[dreamy lynx]

I’m never taking orgo I’m not built for that

[gleaming coral]

U don't have to be a mod to be on this thread tho

[wet owl]

good luck

[vast crypt]

Yeah but why would I be on this thread if I’m not a senior in hs or a Harv student

[vast crypt]

Thank you!

[gleaming coral]

I thought u were a Harvard student 💀

[vast crypt]

Nah

[gleaming coral]

Also I pop in the FSU mega thread one in a while cuz it's interesting

Even tho I didn't apply

[gleaming coral]

Where do you go

[vast crypt]

Yes it’s different when you’re a senior

I was in like 20 as a senior

[vast crypt]

Somewhere else

[gleaming coral]

Checks out

Based on what ik

[reef grove]

☹️

[dreamy lynx]

Why sad

[reef grove]

bc second sem was insanely difficult for me

[dreamy lynx]

O

Same tbh

I didn’t cook in BC until the exam

[reef grove]

i did not cook on the exam 😭🙏

[dreamy lynx]

It’s okay

[reef grove]

i’m not a STEM major tho it’s okay

[dreamy lynx]

I believe in you

If you need math you’ll cook it

[reef grove]

i’ve gotta check my requirements fr

[dreamy lynx]

Idt gov needs math

Maybe depends on track

If there are tracks

[reef grove]

what abt before i declare?

like freshman year

[wet owl]

I was thinking of taking all my gen eds first semester

so that my second semester is purely stem classes

[dreamy lynx]

I mean if your major doesn’t need math then you don’t have to I think idk I need to check gov reqs

[dreamy lynx]

What if you want to take a fall stem class

[wet owl]

yeah probabaly cs50 and a math class

[dreamy lynx]

I wouldn’t do all geneds tbh that would kill first sem for me

Yea do fall cs59

50

[reef grove]

oh i think i have to fulfill a quantitative reasoning requirement but intro to stats fulfills that

[dreamy lynx]

Spring is less aura fall has all the fun stuff

[dreamy lynx]

Gov50

Or EC50

Or cs50

[wet owl]

yeah I'll take it

[reef grove]

oh yay !!

[wet owl]

professor David is amazing

[reef grove]

i’ll just take math 55

[dreamy lynx]

True

[reef grove]

ez claps for me

[dreamy lynx]

Nbd light work

[wet owl]

I already took half of the course a while ago so I hope it'll be easy

[reef grove]

(i nearly died in bc calc)

[wet owl]

I'm so bad at CS

[wet owl]

what math r u taking now

[dreamy lynx]

Depends on your prior experience can always do the less comfortable assignments

[reef grove]

ap stats, multi calc didn’t fit in my schedule :(

i’ve heard multi is easier than bc tho

bc like you already know the base concepts

[wet owl]

I mean I just hate CS but there's no way to avoid it

[wet owl]

cool!

[wet owl]

I hope so!

For the writing placement do we have to do it in one setting?

[dreamy lynx]

What major again

[wet owl]

Electrical Engineering

[dreamy lynx]

Ah

[wet owl]

all the internships lowkey require some CS experience

[wet owl]

+is it difficult

[dreamy lynx]

It’s not difficult it takes some time tho so I would make sure you’re settled

[wet owl]

5 hours💀

And I've seen some people that expos 20 isn't gonna be about the same topics or whatever for everyone

do we get to choose at least

[dreamy lynx]

It’s a lottery you make your selection

Expos us basically a writing focused gened

[junior imp]

No interview, I’m thinking that means rejected

But it’s also Harvard so I’m glad I even had the opportunity to apply

[trim rampart]

no I just got one chill

they’re still rolling out and im p sure they will be until early march

also is the email for Harvard admissions office [email protected]? I need my school to send an update about my application

[obsidian nexus]

they're still coming out

[junior imp]

Ehhh I don’t feel like I’ll get one lol

[obsidian nexus]

ah well

[misty remnant]

real

me type shi

[misty remnant]

NOT FOR ME

[trim rampart]

do they even prescreen

I genuinely doubt it

[trim rampart]

believe bruh

I saw on Reddit some kid that had a 1.9 gpa got one

[obsidian nexus]

i used to believe they didnt prescreen but there are arguments for both sides

realistically it shouldnt concern you whether they prescreen or not because its out of your control

[misty remnant]

UMM

[misty remnant]

HARVARD PLS INTERVIEW ME

[floral briar]

222

[solemn panther]

I’ve said that exact phrase like a million times lol

[rugged vessel]

extreme emphasis on this

a lot of like high school math gods just didnt wanna/couldnt put in the work for math 55 😭 and thats so valid

like

~20-25 hours a week

and yeah there was some copying but rly some problems were so bad like a handful of kids woould figure it out in a reasonable amount of time and have to explain it to their peers lmao

[rugged vessel]

yes

intro math is rough here

[rugged vessel]

so r u embarrassed yet

[dreamy lynx]

I feel like the intro math classes are very well organized tho

like

from 21 to 55

there is something for everyone

[rugged vessel]

organized is probably oen of few goods

a lot of resources too

so they will make you struggle but like also be there

[rugged vessel]

yeah each class is a bit sketch but the way they have it all laid out is very nice

[dreamy lynx]

true

math 22

sometimes I wish I took 25 for the analysis

[solemn panther]

nope! ill say it everyday until i get it to show my "demonstrated interest" 🤓

[dreamy lynx]

and cause dr wood haunts my nightmares

[obsidian nexus]

😭

[rugged vessel]

W answer

[rugged vessel]

25 seems like another quite sketch class

like ive heard similar complaints about 22 and 25

55 is a fantastic class but its 55

[dreamy lynx]

I hear people like it who take it

[rugged vessel]

i think the class itself is a good class ive just heard complaints of like the grading

[dreamy lynx]

ah that maybe

[rugged vessel]

like some 16'ers were complaining about it so quite a few drop from 25 to 22

and then the 22'ers drop to 21 LOL

[dreamy lynx]

it seems like a good 55 alternative prereq wise

[rugged vessel]

yeah

its also good if you know you wanna do pure math but you are just not ready to dedicate an insane amount of time to math

you do get similar things out of it

[dreamy lynx]

25 has very intense pacing

I think it's like

[rugged vessel]

or like enough of it where you won't rly regret not taking 55 (unless u do think you could've handled it)

[dreamy lynx]

if you know you want to do math but don't have enough experience to do 55

[rugged vessel]

oh yeah that too

[dreamy lynx]

the fact that you cover analysis 2nd sem is nice

[rugged vessel]

mhm

its also a move to take like 21 or 22 and just take an analysis class 2nd sem anyway

[dreamy lynx]

true I know a guy who did 22 then 112

[rugged vessel]

there are definitely a handful of probably math concentrators just doing neeither

yeah

112 is the one

[dreamy lynx]

but I feel like that would require uh

prior knowledge

and I feel like 22b builds off of 22a

in a loose sense

or at least Wood structures it assuming everyone took it

[rugged vessel]

i think if you're gonna take one of them might as well take both

it really doesnt hurt

[dreamy lynx]

It hurts

I want to leave the math department classes they’re scary

One more after this sem probably

[rugged vessel]

go to stats

yk u want to

stats is like good right

[dreamy lynx]

I am but

I need to finish math req

And take analysis

Cause it’s good for higher level stat and grad level stat etc

Then no more math courses imma grind stat cs

[frail kettle]

when's the last time harvard sends interviews?

[obsidian nexus]

probably eom

but really they can send them and not send them whenever they want 💀

[solemn panther]

Day 46 of no Harvard interview

[low surge]

us

they threw my app already

[misty remnant]

day 46 of no harvard interview

[rugged vessel]

are there math req's for stats too? or are you just being a nerd

[rugged vessel]

nvm i see the vision

scary

this is statmaxxing to the core

[dreamy lynx]

Well beyond multi and Lin Alg no but since they’re very intersected having analysis proof experience is very helpful

[dreamy lynx]

So true

I’m too far gone

[floral briar]

SOMEONE GET ME AN INTERVIEW PLEASE 😭

[gleaming coral]

U can have mine

[rugged vessel]

flex
