It's always ab junior year, bc senior

rare berry
#

oh dang

novel trout
#

LOL to me doing ab first semester bc is kinda weird

#

different school systems I guess

#

but lowkey

#

in a way

rare berry
#

nah i mean bc is ab+3 units

novel trout
#

Cause bc is a lot of ab anyways

rare berry
#

yeah so ur basically relearing ab in bc anyways

novel trout
#

We actually haven't done any relearning this entire year

#

we're just going at a much slower pace

novel trout
novel trout

#

my test tmrw is over like a dozen things

novel trout
#

x_x

#

that's insane

rare berry
#

yeah

novel trout
#

I can barely keep up in my class rn

#

I have no idea what's going on

#

I think most people in my class are lost cause we're all second semester seniors who aren't paying attention LOL

rare berry
#

trig sub, eulers, diff equations, trig diff, trig integration, logistic growth, partial fractions, improper integrals, integration by parts, trig integrals meltingsob

rare berry
novel trout
#

Wait that's actually insane

#

I'm sorry for your loss 😭

rare berry
#

NOOOO LMAOOO

novel trout
#

no literally I had a test on just convergence/divergence a few weeks ago

#

A review from first semester

#

And I got an 89 😭

rare berry
#

oh yeah... that's on our test tmrw too meltingsob

novel trout
#

I have no idea how you're doing it lol

rare berry
#

i'm not

#

this too hard

novel trout
#

God knows I gotta study anyways 😭

#

we're doing taylor/maclaurin and some error bound thing that starts with a g and is related to maclaurin

rare berry
#

i'll see after this test xd cuz its progressive

novel trout
#

wdym by progressive?

rare berry
#

80 on this test if u get a higher grade next test it replaces both

#

but the next test contains both tests content

novel trout
#

wait that's actually nice

#

what if you get a lower grade

rare berry
#

ehh yeah dpeends though

#

nothing happens

novel trout
#

Ah

#

I would still take it though

#

We used to be allowed to do test corrections

#

you get between 25%-33% of your lost points back (depending on how generous my teacher is feeling x_x) up to 90%

rare berry
#

WHAT

novel trout
#

BUT SOME STUPID PEOPLE DECIDED TO RUIN IT FOR THE REST OF US BY DOING CORRECTIONS ON LIKE AN 88 OR SOMETHING

#

AND NOW SHE CHANGED THE RULE SHE HAD FOR YEARS

#

AND NOW YOU CAN ONLY DO CORRECTIONS UP TO 80

rare berry
#

bro i would love that still meltingsob

novel trout
#

But yeah it's nice

novel trout
#

Find like 2-3 similar questions

#

And write like a 1-2 page letter

#

Explaining what you did wrong

#

How you learned from it

#

How you will improve in the future

#

So it takes like 2 hours to do a few corrections

rare berry
#

ok nvm i'd just take a failing grade

novel trout
#

LOL

#

See that's why I've only done corrections once

#

Cause I actually got a bad grade

#

BUT NOW THESE PEOPLE HAVE RUINED IT AND NOW YOU CAN'T DO CORRECTIONS UNLESS YOU GET UNDER AN 80

#

pretty much everyone is pissed about it

rare berry
#

nahh this motvation to lock in

novel trout
#

I usually get an average of like 88 on tests I'm just not gonna do 2 hours of corrections for 0.5 points x_x

#

and now

#

I'm even more lazy

#

I should be studying rn

#

butttt

#

I'm not lol

rare berry
#

#

jeez you're insane

#

gl

slate socket
#

but the average on our last ap chem test

#

was a 59

novel trout
#

And that is why I refuse to take any science APs LOL

neat cairn
# slate socket was a 59

I was averaging 60s in AP Biology exams but still got an A due to turning in assignments on time.

#

Got a 4 on the actual AP exam so looking back it was a fair system.

slate socket
#

I got a 90 though so I think it'll be a pretty ez 5

If determined as eligible, you’ll receive an invitation to participate in the program prior to your arrival on campus. Typically, the top 10% of incoming first-year students are eligible to participate.

What is iSchool?

novel trout
#

school that houses the info sci major

#

why no honors for me ;-;

#

uh

#

no

#

I know nothing about uiuc x_x

#

I know it's in urbana champaign

#

good for ischool

#

that's about it

#

Yeah I'm definitely not going

#

I still want honors though 😭

#

LOL

#

really?

#

I heard the ischool was good

#

only reason I applied

#
  • easy supps
#

Huh that's interesting

#

Wellll good thing I have unc/gt lol

#

Nah computational media for gt

#

info sci for unc

#

out of curiosity why did you assume graphic design lol

#

I'm curious

#

LOL no that's if you design a logo or something for the server

#

It's half in the college of computing, half in liberal arts

#

I'd be doing a people -> interaction design concentration

#

So I want to focus on how humans interact with technology and use that to design better tech (so ux design)

#

nah I assumed that too when I first joined this server

#

#1068814960437764157

#

I did the duke thing before I got rejected from them 😭

#

I promised that I would design an icon for whatever school I commit to though lol

#

Why me

glossy thicket
quiet salmon
#

Why

#

Give it to ppl who r actually going bruh

novel trout
#

Okay fair enough

#

But I still want honors to prove that I'm not stupid ;-;

novel trout
#

Do they send an email for honors?

#

Or do you just have to check your portal

static kindle
#

email

#

ive only heard honors so far for las and gies

#

i may be wrong tho

static kindle
novel trout
#

Okay yeah fair but I'm still convinced gt was a fluke lol

#

My major is half in the college of computing and I have multiple Bs in STEM and nothing at all cs related

sly mesa
#

i go to usc and i didn’t get into honors at penn state, uiuc, or suny

novel trout
#

Okayyy that makes me feel a lot better about no honors here or at UNC lol

hasty spear
sly mesa
# hasty spear are honors worth it though? I think it's just extra work.

a lot of honors programs offer scholarships, exclusive dorms, and classes that arent available to the general public (i.e. at penn state theres an infamous freshman english course thats hell on earth to register for that honors college students dont have to worry about because they have an honors-only english course)

#

also the capstone projects/theses are really helpful for grad school admissions and tend to be a requirement because most honors college students intend on going to grad school in some shape or form

hasty spear
#

That's valid, but when an employer (e.g. JPMorgan) asks you what you majored in, will they really care about "honors [x]"?

sly mesa
#

iirc penn state has alumni mentors for all of the honors college students

#

so it really can make a difference but its largely what you put into it is what youll get out of it

mint marsh
#

no honors πŸ™ŠπŸ™ŠπŸ™Š

#

cooked

rare berry
#

ts the nth time youve said this

#

lolll

mint marsh
#

πŸ˜•πŸ˜•

#

sly mesa
#

only in a2c do you have people who got into a school w a ~40% acceptance rate saying they’re cooked bc they didn’t get into the honors college

ok i checked mail

#

NOTHING

#

:(

tired basin
#

UIUC math cs was my top choice for a while, but now I’m not even sure if I’d go if I got in

#

Compared to another school that’s still somewhat selective (<50% ar total) but has much more flexibility so I could transition to CS/CE/math/whatever much easier

Because some people are asking, Chencellor's Scholars (CHP program) are different than James Scholars. CHP is a university-wide honors program with only around 500 undergrads total (~120 per year) that mostly accepts in-state students, whereas James Scholar is dependent on your specific college. Feel free to ping me or message me if you have anything you want to know since the two programs are quite different and I'm a CHP student.

95% going to commit UNC if i dont get into any ivies

wdym

#

.

glad spade
#

like idk about that

mint marsh
#

why.

glad spade
#

depends on aid ofc but like

#

is it worth paying more

#

cornell coa is 90k

#

gt coa is 50k

young kettle
#

imo $90k cornell isn't worth it

glad spade
young kettle
#

agreed

tawny sphinx
#

Cornell covers all of your demonstrated need doesn't it

#

I'd imagine the vast majority of students aren't paying 90k (or even close to it)

#

regardless before making these decisions based on price, I'd email the financial aid office at both schools and see what their aid is like, and what avenues you have to pay for school

#

since a lot of the time I'd assume the flat cost of attendance you calculate isn't going to end up being what you actually pay

#

I see

#

hi @hardy geyser

slate socket
#

50k gt is a pretty easy choice for me

#

if it was like

#

50k cornell vs 50k gt

#

i'd prolly choose cornell

#

60k cornell I might choose cornell as well

#

90k def gt
