them rolling out decisions to those who applied early within RD, or

cunning sleet
Hey purdos and purdonts I forgot to ask how you want your rd decision polls done
Bc our usual polls expire after 2 weeks max
So we can either use one outside of that to bypass the time restriction but that technically allows people to double vote on a single poll
Or you all can be on top of pinging us for the waves and we can do a new poll per wave but that also involves reading comprehension in the sense that people who alr received a decision may end up double voting on each new poll even if we say not to
Which would yall prefer

Hey so this isn’t Ritvik but another dude
And I’ll tell you
The main thing with internships and coops
Is that the school name gets you in the door
But you will get yourself the internship
There’s a lot of career fairs and opportunities with clubs
But it’s more about your experiences from clubs and research and projects and involvement
That will get you in the running for internships
Then the next thing is using resources on campus which are very well set up to get you through interviews
That’s the experience
The companies already know you’re good. You have to explaine to them how you’re qualified and useful

We do have some opportunities that are only for Purdue students or companies that will recruit mainly Purdue students but in general Purdue is usually a top target school for interns. My mentor told me that at Boeing for instance, they have a list of 15 top target schools(Purdue being one of them), and then a list of 30 other kinda target schools and then if your school is not on the list, then you are competing for 15 percent of their available spots

guys i got in for fye out of state after i got deferred
ayyyyy
past haven
umd or purdue cs guys
clever basin
umd or purdue cs guys
whichever one is cheaper
and if you're in state
that one
they both are literally equivalent

Will Purdue be dropping a round today?
solemn gazelle
Will Purdue be dropping a round today?
They should be funny and just drop at the exact same time as UIUC does
elfin swallow
They should be funny and just drop at the exact same time as UIUC does
they should be funny and sends those update emails when uiuc drops their decision
😭
glacial elm
umd or purdue cs guys
same debate for me too man
me personally purdue
cuz like the price difference isn’t worth like 16 undergrad vs 12 undergrad u feel
unique owl
vibes is a huge deal imo
for some ppl
especially if they have choices
For me I happen to just like Purdue a lot (pretty campus, far away from my hs, etc) but the cost of attendance is HUGE
if that’s of no issue
Then like visit both
That’s my general two cents?
That I’ve been hearing from others
Bro can the rest of my decisions drop dude I wanna commit to a school
😭😭😭
So I can like mentally prepare myself and accustom myself to said school
solemn gazelle

bro whatt
uc merced is wayy too overpriced
elfin swallow
uc merced is wayy too overpriced
lol
its in california sooooo
and im oos
technically im oos everywhere
😭
but ye purdue is the cheapest rn i think
out of the 13 schools im applying
glacial elm
but ye purdue is the cheapest rn i think
yeah for me FSU is the cheapest
but i am not tryna go there
purdue is second cheapest

is there a wave today?
onyx fossil
any prueue students
the campus is absolutely fucking massive
i was wondering if it was broken down into tdiffernet sections
for differnet majors
or is it really just that hard to walk across
high swift
is there a wave today?
i have the same qs
trail escarp
i was wondering if it was broken down into tdiffernet sections
kinda sorta yeah
all engineering is on one side, all business is on one side, all ag is on one side, all cs majors should be expelled, all life sci/chem is on one side, etc etc
but a lot of times, esp for larger classes, they put those in any random building that has lecture halls big enough to comply, like my ai class is in business side and my philosophy class is in ag side
glacial elm

hey
what did we do
onyx fossil
kinda sorta yeah
also do you like campus?
any complaints or anything
its relaly big
trail escarp
what about housing
housing is all on one edge of campus
its almost entirely detached from academic side of campus
trail escarp
what did we do
cobalt cloud
are all ppl the same skill lvl in engineering?
trail escarp
also do you like campus?
yesss i love campus its great

its relaly big
its big enough where i dont rly get bored of it, but its small enough to walk across in about half an hour

ooh
trail escarp
how far is it from engineering
15-20 min walk?
onyx fossil
oh thats chill
trail escarp
i walk everywhere i never take the bus or bike or anything
trail escarp
yeah its not too far at all u get very used to it
trail escarp
hows the scenery>?
buildings and trees, mainly buildings
trail escarp
yeah its not like dartmouth level gorgeous
crisp pulsar
Bruh I want my decision already
crisp pulsar
I feel like I sent my loci too early
trail escarp
are all ppl the same skill lvl in engineering?
not rly
some ppl are insaaaanely cracked while others are more normal ppl like me
cobalt cloud
I feel like I sent my loci too early
i sent mine on jan 16th 
trail escarp
uhhh theres a large overlap between all the majors "smartness"
crisp pulsar
some ppl are insaaaanely cracked while others are more normal ppl like me
I feel like this always happens esp for publics cuz instate is less competitive than like intl
Obv everyone who gets into purdue is gonna be smart
trail escarp
which majors in ur opinion are smarter than others
but based on intelligence aura id say aero and ece are def the smartest, cs and other engineerings are close behind, but theres a lot of super super smart ppl in all majors
cobalt cloud
uhhh theres a large overlap between all the majors "smartness"
if u had to give it a ranking of like cs, mech e, ece, and civil
i see
trail escarp
I feel like this always happens esp for publics cuz instate is less competitive ...
yea also very luck based too, like idk how im here compared to everyone else i feel so lucky to be here
trail escarp
if u had to give it a ranking of like cs, mech e, ece, and civil
ece>cs=meche=civil
their curriculum is just straight up harder
cobalt cloud
being an ece student applying i like that shi
crisp pulsar
i sent mine on jan 16th <:cursedmoon:1009525437526986792>
I sent mine jan 23rd
cobalt cloud
i like being challenged
trail escarp
being an ece student applying i like that shi
BUT that also means its hard
like rly rly hard
crisp pulsar
And I don't have much to add despite going on national TV
trail escarp
2.5 average gpa of some classes hard
cobalt cloud
BUT that also means its hard
ik i like alll of it so idm

i can leave purdue behind

Not like i have the choice 😭

uiuc for ECE is jus too good
Theyre really good in research for what I wanna do
glacial elm
Not like i have the choice 😭
Man U got uw Madison
cobalt cloud
- more challenging classes
fast harness
im more forcused on research not jobs yet
trail escarp
there placements and opportunites
its marginally better theyre both top tier engineering schools
like the difference in placement is not worth 200k imo
fast harness
since im planning for grad school
trail escarp
+ more challenging classes
thats explicitly incorrect
purdue is more grade deflated, harder classes and curriculum
cobalt cloud
thats not exactly persuading me considering i need a good gpa to get into masters
trail escarp
uiuc is better if u want grade inflation, purdue is sadly deflated
fast harness
reaally?
trail escarp
thats not exactly persuading me considering i need a good gpa to get into master...
yeah exactly 😔
fast harness
like harder classes here?
trail escarp
like harder classes here?
yeah the engineering classes here are HARD
crisp pulsar
Trust ill get a 4.0 at purdue
cobalt cloud
is that like rly well known?
fast harness
yeah the engineering classes here are HARD
but doesnt this damage gpa for grad school
or is it taken into account
rigor
cobalt cloud
cuz they look at a 3.5 at UIUC and purdue the same, no?
trail escarp
but doesnt this damage gpa for grad school
it does 
luckily grad schools are aware of purdues grade deflation but im not sure how well its taken into account, ill lyk in 2 years once i apply

im double majoring in dept of cs (college of sci) and college of liberal arts
crisp pulsar
So i can like get a head start over the summer
cobalt cloud
im double majoring in dept of cs (college of sci) and college of liberal arts
is double majoring easy to figure out
trail escarp
You can find the classes ahead of time though no?
hm meaning?
cobalt cloud
cuz im tryna do physics too
trail escarp
is double majoring easy to figure out
oh yes it was very easy
u can declare almost any double major at no risk
crisp pulsar
hm meaning?
Like the content of whats gonna be taught
cobalt cloud
oh yes it was very easy
does it carry over any cool points
trail escarp
Like the content of whats gonna be taught
oh yeah theres curriculum and past syllabi and reddit for that
trail escarp
does it carry over any cool points
cool points meaning?
cobalt cloud
cool points meaning?
like does it help with anything other than the fact that ur taking more classes and rigor?
as in summer opportunites
or such?
trail escarp
i mean for what i want to do the double major is helpful because its a rly cool combination that only purdue has
cobalt cloud
so just a way to more deflate ur gpa?
worthy trout
wassup
trail escarp
so just a way to more deflate ur gpa?
inflate in my case 😭
cobalt cloud
inflate in my case 😭
i figure physics is gonna deflate in my case
worthy trout
so just a way to more deflate ur gpa?
yeah. it's probably a lot more effective to just do 1 major and then take only the classes you're interested in for the other major
trail escarp
i figure physics is gonna deflate in my case
oh yes fs
worthy trout
i was a triple major at one point 💀
cobalt cloud
i was a triple major at one point 💀
woah

u can freely take physics classes without declaring though as long as u meet the prereqs

being anything but a junior unfortunately nerfs you a lot
like i went from one interview -> one offer soph year
to like 7 interviews junior year
worthy trout
is double majoring easy to figure out
oh if you wanna major b/w colleges
it's not worth it at all
except for if one of them is in liberal arts
cobalt cloud
i was gonna do

because if you're doing engineering and science, you need to separately complete the gen-eds for both of them and you can't double count

pretty much impossible in 4 years

How bad is grade deflation at purdue i heard its rlly bad
isnt it just abd for in state tho
