eager kelp
#

tulip harbor
#

No problem

eager kelp
#

yeah io understand that

tulip harbor
#

What’s your uh

#

SAT

#

if you don’t mind me asking

eager kelp
tulip harbor
#

Ok fair enough

eager kelp
#

I just am a a terrible test taker

tulip harbor
#

Fair

eager kelp
#

That's why i didn't apply cs

tulip harbor
#

Okay

eager kelp
#

cause i knew it wouldn't work out

tulip harbor
#

Yep

#

What’s your top choice

#

Also you’re the Seattle guy right

#

Or am I tripping

eager kelp
#

Yeah i'm a seattle guy

#

Hopefully UW for cs

#

but unlikely due to how compettive it is

tulip harbor
#

Fair

#

My sisters bf is a Washington resident

#

Bro is currently at Purdue Indy

#

Doing comp e

eager kelp
#

dang

#

I would really like to go to UW

#

ig ill just find out in 4 months smh

#

idk why it comes out so late

tulip harbor
#

Interesting

#

Iirc Purdue OOS is slightly more expensive than UW instate

#

It depends whether you can afford to pay for ‘getting out of your home town’ or ‘not having to run into kids at your hs’

eager kelp
#

lmao yeah, we can pay for purdue OOS

tulip harbor
eager kelp
#

wtf

tulip harbor
#

If not you’re all good

eager kelp
#

why would you ever do that

tulip harbor
eager kelp
#

bro what

tulip harbor
#

He was always a non stem enthusiast

eager kelp
#

then why apply for fye??

tulip harbor
#

And also realistically he realised he’s not smart enough for anything more advanced for calc 2

tulip harbor
eager kelp
#

damm 😭

eager kelp
tulip harbor
#

I did some things

tulip harbor
eager kelp
#

nah it's okay lmao 😭

tulip harbor
#

He’s a nice person if he wants to be

#

Lmfao ok

eager kelp
#

LMAO if he wants to be

#

intersting

#

i would never CODO into psych tho

#

especially if i got in for cyber

tulip harbor
#

Neither

eager kelp
#

that ain't happening

tulip harbor
#

No sir

#

That’s a downgrade

#

I’m Asian so I’m logical

#

We never do downgrades

eager kelp
#

LMAO\

#

yeah fs

#

that's a downgrade fs'

tulip harbor
#

UW is a great all round school correct?

#

I don’t know I never looked into it

eager kelp
#

yeah it is

#

i love UW so much

#

I would go the second i get in

#

no thought about it

#

but i don't really think about it that much as my dream school because i don't want to be let down

tulip harbor
#

Ruined me for 3 months

tulip harbor
#

Bro has too much to spend

tulip harbor
pliant garnet
#

CODOing as an ai is a lot easier than cyber

eager kelp
pliant garnet
#

ai is in dept of cs

#

cyber is in polytech

eager kelp
#

oh yeah that's true

#

yeah

#

gotta love the polytech

tulip harbor
#

I shit on the polytechnic

eager kelp
pliant garnet
tulip harbor
#

Don’t get me wrong it’s good but one kid I know is a massive disappointment

eager kelp
#

LMAO

tulip harbor
tulip harbor

#

damm 😭

tulip harbor
#

When’s your flight back purdude

tulip harbor
#

At least it’s not a trend

eager kelp
#

oh okay 😭

pliant garnet
#

But there is ai beyond llms

#

I don’t wanna do llms

pliant garnet
tulip harbor
pliant garnet
#

But like mine is 6 hours

#

Urs is prolly like 2 or smth

tulip harbor
#

Are you taking the limo

pliant garnet
#

It prepares u for a job immediately after grad

pliant garnet
#

From Chicago

tulip harbor
pliant garnet
#

😔

tulip harbor
#

Both of y’all’s degrees are tracks within CS

eager kelp
eager kelp
tulip harbor
#

That’s how I picked my degree lol

pliant garnet
#

And r u familiar with java

eager kelp
#

I'm doing calc 1 and 2 rn

#

and yep

pliant garnet
#

Ooh ok yeah

#

Then u do have a decent chance at switching to cs

#

Cuz all that matters is ur math courses, and cs180

#

Which is Java

eager kelp
#

Ah okay fs

#

well i wonder if my UW cs course would transfer for that

pliant garnet
#

Wait actually

#

Never mind

#

If ur cybersec

#

And taking calc 2 rn

#

It’s scuffed

eager kelp
#

wdym

pliant garnet
#

So like, cs major change cares about ur math courses gpa that u take in purdue (since they’re weeders) and ur cs180 grade. Cybersec major only has u take calc 1 and 2 for math and no more. If ur taking calc 2 rn, u won’t be taking purdue math at all

#

And that could make ur major change app kinda scuffed in terms of competitiveness

eager kelp
#

ah damm that is kind of scuffed 😭

#

that's chilling tho

#

I don't really wanna take math anyways lmao

pliant garnet
tulip harbor
tulip harbor
#

Calc 3 is fine

tulip harbor
#

Purdue CS is annoying that you have to take some courses exclusively at Purdue

eager kelp
#

yep it doesn't transfer 😭

tulip harbor
#

Well at least you’ll be prepared

#

🤡

pliant garnet
#

i LOVE unidstributed credit

eager kelp

Need the grind back

tulip harbor

I got a sled waiting for me to finish

round iris
#

does Purdue have fee waiver

#

if yes could someone send

pliant garnet
#

Uhhh I don’t think so

#

Lemme see

#

Here’s an a2c list

round iris

pliant garnet
round iris

yes

pliant garnet

Lemme see

#

Here

#

The ACT might be scuffed btw

round iris
#

good

#

oh I’m cooked

#

my gpa lower than that

round iris
pliant garnet
#

That’s average

round iris
#

I have 3.7 I think

#

ik I didn’t apply early but I’m just praying I get a lot of outside scholarship

#

since Purdue is my dream school

pliant garnet
round iris
#

oh wow

pliant garnet
round iris
#

thx

pliant garnet
#

Hope u get in :D

round iris
#

I’ll try to apply tomorrow

If so thats cracked ash

pliant garnet

wait does apps require any

#

ACT/SAT

pliant garnet
#

Cuz the ppl I see in my classes and lab

#

Holy crap they’re insane

pliant garnet

It’s damn near impossible to get in test optional

round iris

COOKED

my act so low

pliant garnet
pliant garnet

#

my score is bad tho

pliant garnet
round iris
#

21 on my ACT

pliant garnet
#

Only if u don’t mind

round iris
#

I’m dumb

pliant garnet
#

That’s not rly far from the average

#

Flight tech I think has 24.8 in 25-50 percentile

round iris
#

ppl were shocked becuz I have low act but good gpa

#

it’s because I can’t take stuff fast

#

and I worked hard on my school grades.

round iris
#

so I could still pass

#

I’m planning on retaking my ACT

pliant garnet
#

Yeahh, if u can afford the fees, I do encourage u to apply

#

Esp if it’s ur dream school

pliant garnet
round iris
#

idrk im taking it this year

#

it’ll come before January

pliant garnet
#

Yeah just make sure it comes before u submit ur app

round iris
#

what if I submitted with my low act score

#

idk I might apply to Ohio state too

pliant garnet
round iris
#

especially if it’s rd

pliant garnet

Purdue is holistic

#

They care abt ur whole app

Not formulaic

#

jan 15 i think?

round iris
#

did yall apply thought website or common app

keen moon
#

commonapp

#

ea

#

in state so i thought it would be easier to do it that way since i already had a commonapp essay

#

is purdue cs/ce a reach for in state students? I always thought it would be easy but now im kinda worried after reading on reddit lol

ruby cipher
#

commonapp EA

#

1590 superscore 4.0 top 1% ok ecs hard courses

#

but ppl are saying its like a coin flip for comp e

misty jacinth
keen moon
#

i applied for both

#

i think my main one was comp e bc its the school of engineering and my secondary was cs

misty jacinth
#

Similar situation to you (1590 top of class decent ecs hard courses) I think we’ll be fine

#

CS I would say coinflip

keen moon
#

in state?

misty jacinth
#

CE? You get admitted to FYE

#

still a target not a safety

#

But I’d be rather surprised by a defer

misty jacinth
keen moon
#

dang u think it changes for in state?

#

ya hopefully a target for me

misty jacinth
#

In state it would prolly be a safety with our stats

#

Tbh

keen moon
#

bc i dont rly have safeties

misty jacinth
#

Why💀

#

I put Rutgers and RIT as my safeties

keen moon

#

after doing the initial eye and body exams

#

D173.72 is the disqualification code

raw pebble

Dq is rough

keen moon

raw pebble
#

Ye

#

I feel like they made SLE way too much fun

keen moon

raw pebble

#

insane to think how someone as stupid as me and then ppl as smart as them end up in the same school

#

i still dont know how im here ngl

keen moon
#

My year is just super competitive for some reason

#

Everyones is just pushed to work harder

misty jacinth
#

Yeah same except I’m still a lazy bum

#

Idk how I’m top of my class half of my teachers think I’m a bum(i got recs from the ones who didn’t)

#

😭

keen moon
#

Im struggling to choose between cs and comp e lol

#

Its too late now for purdue

misty jacinth
#

Eh you can’t transfer into CS so I just made my decision when I applied lol

#

You can still do SWE with compe but also way cooler stuff like chip design

#

Purdue’s great for that since I think u need at least a master’s to get out of basic verification jobs

#

4+1 ftw

keen moon
#

I know comp e is a way harder route tho

misty jacinth
#

Yeah but CS is lowkey a bum major for people who can’t do physicssmile

#

CE/EE are the goats

keen moon
#

I wanna do ece 4+1 lol

misty jacinth
#

Yeah same lol

keen moon
#

Part of why i applied

misty jacinth
#

Why does purdue have an ece major and a ce major

keen moon
#

Cs has it too

misty jacinth
#

I was confused so I just applied CE

keen moon
#

I might be cooked if 4+1 is only for ece and not ce

#

Ece might be more hardware based

misty jacinth
#

You join Purdue as a first year engineering student

keen moon
#

And ce has some potentoal for software

misty jacinth
#

For any eng major

#

Then you take the courses for ur specific major

#

I think

#

So it doesn’t matter too much

keen moon
#

Will they not hold you to what you put in your app

#

Ok thx

misty jacinth
#

I think the only major that’s restricted is CS

#

Which tracks

keen moon
#

Yeah its kinda annoying tho

#

But the median salary for cs is a bit higher than ce

#

~10k

misty jacinth
#

eh that’s fine with me tbh

#

Money isn’t life

keen moon
#

Main thing for me is the difficulty

misty jacinth
#

Also more people with CE degrees do grad school I think

keen moon
#

Like how difficult lol

misty jacinth
#

How are u doing in ur phys coursework

#

If ur doing good you’ll prolly be fine

keen moon
#

A rn for phys c but theres such a heavy curve

#

Its wild we get like frqs from the ap exam for tests and the class average is like a D precurve and i usually beat the curve but its still like a B-

#

So maybe cooked for college but i cant tell

misty jacinth
#

Eh idk tbh

#

I get like 95s raw

#

But I took physics 1 last yr

#

So that helps

keen moon
#

Yeah our honors physics was super easy

misty jacinth
#

Also our whole phys c class is full of people who got 5s on phys 1 so our averages are shifted way up

keen moon
#

But our ohys c teacher is notoriously bad

misty jacinth
misty jacinth
#

It doesn’t matter

#

And you prolly will

keen moon
#

Yuh does Purdue have grade deflation?

misty jacinth
#

that gets you out of the physics courses at purdue I think

misty jacinth
#

I’ve heard bad things about the intro level courses

#

It’s why you take ur ap credits

keen moon
#

Yup

#

Helps with fulfilling credits for 4+1 right

pliant garnet
#

like major switch into cs right?

pliant garnet
#

One of the most in the country

keen moon
#

Bruhhh why are all 3 schools i applied ea have deflation

#

The struggle is real to not just choose an easy major lol

#

Prolly would help with admissions tkk

misty jacinth
pliant garnet
#

I’m gonna try it

misty jacinth
#

Huh well I won’t be gl with that

pliant garnet
#

U have to have a high gpa in a few certain courses

misty jacinth
#

Well prolly not

#

I should add purdue in my user

#

It’s lowkey the cheapest

pliant garnet
eager kelp
#

purdue fire

#

highkey

misty jacinth
#

Yeah tbh

#

If I get honors college I’ll prolly go there

#

Since I don’t have to worry about housing crisis

misty jacinth
#

Like is there a lot to do

pliant garnet
pliant garnet
#

It’s fine

#

But ymmv

misty jacinth

bro we dont need any more restrictive colleges

rutgers whole thing is public

Imagine this

Public ivy-level school

#

Like UM sorta thing

enough of those exist, its all subjective

#

its real useless tho

cause while ur at the college

#

ur being stuffed in ur classes

and prestige or rankings never coming up

until jobs

IMO that's just what old Rutgers alumni tell me

They're just annoyed that their degrees didn't go up in value I guess

#

Idk

like rutgers is a solid state flagship

where are NJ kids gonna go if rutgers has a 2% AR

they'll prob have to settle for NJIT

tulip harbor
#

Did not know that

#

But why is IE not as competitive though

fiery goblet
#

tulip harbor
#

Compared to lets say AE or ME

tulip harbor
#

I’m also not actually an English major if you can’t tell

fiery goblet
#

Wait what

#

#

It’s just a joke someone here thought first year eng was first year English

tulip harbor
fiery goblet

west pollen
#

xd

fiery goblet
#

my dream school is MIT or CMU but well im NEVER getting into MIT and CMU is the most expensive thing in the world like the entire worlds economy is not enough to get admission into CMU so the only logical or well rational decision for me and my future would be purdue (or USC, princeton, stanford, UC Berkely, Upenn but well same situation as MIT 😁 😁 )

tulip harbor
#

I would just try to fall in love with Purdue lol

fiery goblet
#

Does purdue have snow

#

like

#

deep

#

cold colkd snow

tulip harbor
#

And then if you get in somewhere more prestigious then you’ll still be happy

tulip harbor
fiery goblet
#

where you need the big huge fat jackets

#

And boots

#

Yeah im going insane i need sleep

tulip harbor
#

This was before thanksgiving

fiery goblet
#

That looks fire

tulip harbor
#

It snowed a bit last night i think

#

Yeah its really pretty

fiery goblet
#

hows the food

tulip harbor
#

Food isn’t bad but its repetitive

fiery goblet
#

How about the surroundings of the campus, is the campus in like the middle of nowhere or is there lots of stuff around where you can go

#

example like class is over u have 20 mins and u wanna go look around for cool stuff like maybe books or go to starbucks or sm

tulip harbor
#

The campus is in west Lafayette which is kinda a bubble. Lafayette has a bit to do but it’s more run down

#

There’s two Starbucks on campus

#

But shopping wise or cool stuff not so much

#

There’s one cat cafe in Lafayette tho

fiery goblet
tulip harbor
#

I love kitties

fiery goblet
#

#

fiery goblet
#

is the AI major bad

tulip harbor
#

Purdude is in fact a dude

tulip harbor
#

Also there’s some ethics and psych class in AI

#

I think

fiery goblet
#

Thats fire

#

Well

#

thats something to decide later

#

but i know that i wanna get into purdue badly

tulip harbor
#

Also if you get in CS its easier to swap to AI than vice versa

fiery goblet
