to take

#

concetrations is a specialzed focus of your degree

#

minors are smaller versions of a major

#

either its great or its not

#

this is the sample fye courses

image.png
#

for first year

#

if you got credits for chemistry

#

and the writing classes

#

and physics

#

and calculus

#

then you'd only have to take the intro to engr courses

#

and c programing

#

if you have chemistry credits

#

then you dont even have to take c

#

cause c is an fye selective

#

the options for that are chm116, bio110, and cs159

#

ap chem credit counts for chm115 and chm116

gleaming reef
#

oh i think i need c tho cause ee requires it

#

later on

hoary quartz
#

yea

#

nvm

#

you should totally join the purdue server

#

theres alot of ee

gleaming reef
#

ya cause i have ap chem physics c mech and lang

hoary quartz
#

and compE

gleaming reef
#

and ap calc bc

hoary quartz
#

who would tell you

gleaming reef
#

oh can i just find that online

#

whats the code to join it

hoary quartz
#

im trying, but yknow they seem to not mess with me

gahhhdammn

unique owl
gleaming reef
#

thats wild

unique owl
hoary quartz
#

we are always fried in engineering, but we must still continue cause its simply all we can do

#

cause dropping out and changing majors is not an option

#

mechanical engineering

unique owl
hoary quartz
#

now my peers dont have it as bad as i do

#

for most of them

unique owl
#

I must persist ig

hoary quartz
#

it took around 100-150

#

apps

#

but idk im just learnign as i go

unique owl
#

I’m going into aerospace or planning to do so

#

So

hoary quartz
#

i hear its easiest in junior year

hoary quartz
unique owl
#

Maybe I’ll be in the same position

hoary quartz
#

i only say this

unique owl
hoary quartz
#

to save you

#

from many hours

unique owl
#

Oh

hoary quartz
#

are you a hands on kinda engineer

#

someone who loves to design

#

and make things

#

cause aerospace engineerign here doenst have that until senior year

unique owl
hoary quartz
#

you will be coding

#

all the time

unique owl
hoary quartz
#

and your jobs will be going to mechEs

#

all the time

#

its actually interesting

#

many aero companies have more positions open for meches and eces

#

than aersoapce

unique owl
hoary quartz
#

but ill stop with the mechE propaganda

#

once you get on campus

#

itll be insane

#

and maybe youll join the light side

#

in the school of mechanical engineering

#

after fye

unique owl
#

The MechE propaganda?

#

ah well

hoary quartz
#

we are the best engineering major

unique owl
#

I shall see 🫡

hoary quartz
hoary quartz
unique owl
#

EE and MechE are versatile

#

Aero is still a lil niche somehow

hoary quartz
#

many folks be applying alot nowadays

unique owl
#

Despite how many ppl apply

hoary quartz
#

aerospace at purdue

gleaming reef
#

is it easier to get internships in ee?

hoary quartz
#

is just really space restricted

hoary quartz
#

no engineering has it easy

#

besides industrial engineering

#

for jobs

unique owl
#

misconceptions then lol

hoary quartz
#

something ive come to learn

#

is that

#

aerospace

#

is not niche

#

and you can actually use your skills

#

to be act like a mechanical

unique owl
#

LMAO

hoary quartz
#

that will help you later on

#

when youre looking for jobs

#

getting into the aerospace industry as a freshman and sophmore is touch

#

tough

#

so what many do is become manufacturing engineers for a year or two

unique owl
#

I see

hoary quartz
#

thats why my job numbers are high

#

markets ass

#

and jobs are all in manufacturing

gleaming reef
#

dang what do you do in that?

#

like control systems?

unique owl
hoary quartz
#

theres controls aspects of manufacturing

#

im more of the traditional sense

#

i dont like controls

#

i havent take the course

#

yet

unique owl
#

My CS brethren must be fighting for their lives rn 😭🙏

hoary quartz
#

but i hear unholy things

#

about controls

#

worse than fluids

#

they say

gleaming reef
#

oh like what ;-;

hoary quartz
#

brother

unique owl
gleaming reef
#

im lowk interested in controls

hoary quartz
#

i couldnt even describe

#

they cannot tell me

#

what controls is

#

nobody can tell me

#

the best ive heard

#

is taht its a way to describe how to control things

#

my friend doesnt know whats happening

#

in that course

gleaming reef
#

dang 😭

hoary quartz
#

and im about 6 months away

#

from taking that course

#

but thats normal

#

idk whats happenign in dynamics rn

#

i had no idea what i was doing in fye

unique owl
#

So the peak engineering experience basically

hoary quartz
#

also piece of advice

unique owl
#

Being clueless

hoary quartz
#

dont overload your credits

#

in fye

#

college is so much harder than hs

#

no matter what you think

#

do the 14 credit hours

#

each semester

gleaming reef
#

how much classes is that

hoary quartz
#

you will come to love yourself

hoary quartz
#

could be 3-7 classes

#

we have 1 credit hour courses

#

i did 17 and 16

#

and i didnt succeed

#

i still feel the damage to this day

#

all your opportunities will be defined by your freshman year performance

#

so you better do it good

#

and take it slow

unique owl
#

Good to know

gleaming reef
#

hmm alright

#

my study habits are kinda cooked

#

so im gonna be in for a ride bruh

#

do yk if theres a class that is calc 3 and 4 tho

#

combined

#

in one semester

hoary quartz
#

you cant take any of the combined coruses

#

ece wants you to take them all individually

#

with calc bc

#

youll get outta calc 1 and calc 2

#

calc 3

#

you can do the test out

#

same with linear algebra

#

and differential equations

gleaming reef
gleaming reef
hoary quartz
gleaming reef
#

oh wait thats good

#

so i can just like lock in and study it on my own

#

and just skip it

#

are the tests hella hard tho?

hoary quartz
#

yes

#

they are notoriously hard

#

an 85-86 percent

#

really

#

pass

#

nothing comes easy here

gleaming reef
#

hmm i dont understand this

image.png
#

so like can i take the test while im in the class?

hoary quartz
#

you can

#

but it has to be before the first exam

gleaming reef
#

ohh

#

when does that normally happen

#

is there only mid terms and finals?

hoary quartz
#

and they usualyl do them the day of the first day of college

gleaming reef
#

wait what

#

how come

hoary quartz
#

its an exam

#

you take

#

on site

gleaming reef
#

but like u didnt learn anything yet

hoary quartz
#

in an exam hall

#

you study yourself

#

its a self study

gleaming reef
#

oh are u talking about the credit test or the class

hoary quartz
#

theres resources online

#

the credit test

#

the class is a class

#

i will say

#

purde math

#

can be really fucking hard

#

omg bro

gleaming reef
hoary quartz
#

yes

#

first midterm

gleaming reef
#

oh alrr

#

wait so if u pass then what

#

u just drop it

#

and take nothing

#

?

hoary quartz
#

no

#

you take the next level

gleaming reef
#

but like if its in the middle of the semester

hoary quartz
#

lets say you pass calc 3 testout

hoary quartz
#

you cant have that happen

#

cause you wont qualify to take the exam

gleaming reef
#

like before the midterm

hoary quartz
#

all the exams happen on the first day of college

gleaming reef
#

oh

hoary quartz
#

youll get a response within the first week

#

you will have that class switched with another

#

usually

#

a higher level math

#

so calc 3 test out with a pass

#

may lead you taking

#

linear algebra

#

or differential equations

gleaming reef
#

can u take multiple exams on the first day?

hoary quartz
#

think so

#

well

#

i think those are throughout the week

#

if you have mutliple exams

gleaming reef
#

yoo ik what im gonna do over the summer

hoary quartz
#

but you can ask your advisor that

gleaming reef
#

i can just lock in and get my math creds

hoary quartz
#

you can also do clep exams for the basic gen eds

#

this is a great way to get study material for the clep

#

and also get to do the clep for free

gleaming reef
#

oh hows it make it free

hoary quartz
#

they waive it

#

the cost

gleaming reef
#

which one of those would i need

#

cause i only really need math and science from clep yeah?

#

do u need social studies and english?

hoary quartz
#

so yea

#

uh

#

this is why i keep sending those ece links

#

youre gonna have to check each course

#

and the clep exam transfer credit

#

and see what you need

#

and what you dont

#

heres the gen eds

#

these are university gen eds

#

major related gen eds are in this link

#

there can be overlap between univeristy gen eds and major related gen eds

gleaming reef
#

so i need both?

#

not only ece gen eds

hoary quartz
#

so what i mean

#

is that

#

there are times

#

where the ece gen eds

#

are the univeristy gen eds

#

like you get to pick and choose

#

and since you have to get your univeristy gen ed requirements

#

its better do do classes that are both univeristy gen ed requirements and ece gen ed requiremtns

#

so you dont have to do more unecessary courses that dont count towards anything

#

things can double count

#

also heres your major selectvies

#

and finally

#

heres your major plan of study

gleaming reef
#

but like are all the gen eds in the electrical engineering plan of study

#

does that include all the credits u need

hoary quartz
#

yes

#

so you use the unveristy one

#

to find all the ones that you wanna do

#

that also count as gen eds in ece

#

ece has more gen eds than there are university gen eds

gleaming reef
#

ohh its this part right

image.png
#

i just noticed it

hoary quartz
#

so once youre done with your univeristy gen eds

#

you do the upper levels

#

also

#

some of those fye courses

#

count as gen eds

#

and some ap courses

#

can take away gen eds

#

talk to your advisor in the summer

#

if you commit

#

and youll get more info

gleaming reef
#

oh aight

gleaming reef
#

in the uni gen ed list

#

oh wait nvm i just read under that

hoary quartz
#

yea

#

just read

#

its pretty clear

#

they know folks might be confused

#

anything that says in parathesis (satifies : ____) is usually referring to satisfying a univeristy gen ed requirement

gleaming reef
#

are history courses part of college of liberal arts

hoary quartz
#

so you can go into the university gen eds

#

and then go into ece gen eds

#

and find the overlap

#

thats just for that

hoary quartz
gleaming reef
#

oh epic

hoary quartz
#

check the ece gen eds

#

there are history courses there

#

you could do a history minor

gleaming reef
#

for fye?

hoary quartz
#

no

#

a minor is declared in junior year

#

but its a something you do over the college degree

#

heres another thing you could do

#

concentrations

#

of your major

#

is specializations of your major

#

dont have to worry about it rn

#

this is usually chosen in junior year

gleaming reef
hoary quartz
#

yes

gleaming reef
#

are those the fye history courses

hoary quartz
#

no

gleaming reef
#

cause thats the only place i see

#

them

hoary quartz
#

fye has the classes it has

#

clear cut

#

bro

#

you gotta read the whole page

gleaming reef
#

oh wait this

image.png
#

sorry lol

hoary quartz
#

it has all you need

gleaming reef
#

do yk if econ is under school of management?

#

or which school

hoary quartz
#

school of business

gleaming reef
#

hmm it seems like the hard part would be getting those two classes that are level 30000 or higher

#

do those normally need prereqs

narrow lily

#

genuinely one of the worst purdue performances ive seen

elfin swallow
glacial elm
#

FDU had that purdue offense on locks

elfin swallow
#

what do purdue have now anyways

#

i dont keep tabs on college basketball

#

barely watch march madness

glacial elm
#

last night

#

struggled against northwestern

#

and lost by 14 to ohio state

elfin swallow
#

well

#

at least they play better than me

glacial elm
#

u wud prolly play better than purdue

#

purdue is ASS

elfin swallow
#

i cant shoot 3s

#

i can only play pf or c role as a 6'1 guy 😭

#

i mean it prob wont really affect the results

glacial elm
elfin swallow
#

haiz if only i was born earlier to at least see zach edey in purdue

glacial elm
#

way beyond the arc but im so short

#

so im useless in the paint

glacial elm
elfin swallow
glacial elm

i get dominated interior tho

elfin swallow

nah i get fried when i play interior

#

its chicken for them

elfin swallow
#

i get cooked on perimeter

#

like small guards blow by me quite some times

#

they be quick

#

theres only 1 time i pulled off a chasedown block on them

#

if only i was above 7'0

#

maybe i can dream abt playing d1 or d2

#

😭

glacial elm

man i cant play any level

elfin swallow
high swift
#

Will Purdue come out today

eternal lotus
high swift
#

yeah but its been like what

#

2 weeks

#

since the first wave

#

dropped

eternal lotus
#

heard someone got in last monday

#

so i am not sure

ember yacht
# eternal lotus so i am not sure

probably not accurate, since no one else on discord or reddit made a comment or post. i doubt they'd bother rolling decisions out for a very fringe minority of applicants.

hoary quartz
#

they do rolling

ember yacht
#

they do, yes, but it's usually for a larger volume than the one in context.

inner smelt
#

too busy losing games to release decisions apparently

fervent smelt
#

does purdue email when they made an update to ur portal

glacial elm
#

yea

#

they do it very unexpectedly

#

i rem for me it was like 4:55 and i was working at the gas station

#

good ol times

fervent smelt
#

interesting

#

bc they didnt email me when they made an update for ea

#

hopefully i get in tho 🙏

glacial elm
fervent smelt
glacial elm
#

oh damnnn

#

did you apply fye or like

fervent smelt
#

yea fye

cobalt cloud
#

pretty sure they deferred like all fye

#

EA

fervent smelt
#

bruh no way

glacial elm
#

all g bro

#

u got it rd trust

#

if it helps i got deferred uf but got into purdue cs

#

so its js weir

#

weird

fervent smelt
#

ty

#

dyk how many applicants they had for fye ea

glacial elm
#

idrk

#

if i wud guess abt like 12k??

#

idk

#

maybe even 17k

cobalt cloud
#

def more than 20k

#

considering its a stem school, def more than 20k

glacial elm
#

for eng nah idtso

cobalt cloud
#

fs

glacial elm
#

nvm

#

it is

#

😭

#

o yea nearly 35k

#

goddamn unc

cobalt cloud
#

YEAHH

hoary quartz
#

as it really is

hoary quartz
#

its all first year engineering

#

so if you got deffered

#

it wasnt from meche, or ece, or Ie

#

its all from engineering

#

and aint nun wrong with that, just hope

#

and see wehre you end up

fervent smelt
#

ill keep my hopes up for the upcoming weeks 🤞

cobalt cloud
#

for all deferred ppl

#

im feeling a wave today for rd

#

like idk smth about today

#

im jus feeling it

north helm
#

hope ur right

solemn path
#

Hey anyone know why there's another admissions letter for the college of science?
Is that a different thing I low-key forgot

elfin swallow
#

am curious :p

hoary quartz
#

i have no idea

#

i kinda was too focused on learning about purdue

#

once i got in

elfin swallow
hoary quartz
#

if youre domestic

#

totally visit purdue

elfin swallow
#

im half a world away

#

😭

#

but ill get to know more abt it

#

once i get my 2nd wave of decisions this week

#

id know abit more abt purdue

narrow lily
#

do you guys take trips to chicago or indy sometimes

#

and by amtrak or bus (or car if you have one)

hoary quartz
#

A lot of people do I don't

fluid thunder
#

my friend at Purdue buses down to Indy somewhat regularly he tells me its easy to do

inner smelt
#

no wave again today?

#

pmo

glacial elm
#

ur prolly egttin it friday

purdue isnt all engineering majors

glacial elm
hoary quartz
#

only 17 percent is engineering

they do grade deflation so I don’t

#

hoary quartz
glacial elm
modern ridge
#

LMAO senior

hoary quartz

and get those requirements youre good

#

theres alot of high achieving

high gpa pre meds here

modern ridge
#

oh rlly

hoary quartz
#

yea

cobalt cloud
hoary quartz
#

but the way you acting might negate that ability to succeed

modern ridge
hoary quartz
#

gotta do your own research

#

into school you apply to

who applies blindly to colleges

cobalt cloud

some of those deffered got an offer then

#

so far i havent heard of a second wave

#

yet

topaz fox

you think theyll still give out offers?

cobalt cloud
#

thxs dude

#

cant wait

#

wait

#

IS THERE A CHANCE I DONT GET ECE AFTER FYE?

#

no way

lunar cypress
#

you just need to meet a GPA cutoff

patent cloak
#

if they release today will it be by 5 pm

elfin swallow
lunar cypress
#

yes!

#

for FYE students you get two options to choose to transition to once your first year is done

#

all FYE students need to do this

#

if you don't get accepted into either you can do other classes (generally gen-eds) and increase your GPA, they run the transition process thrice a year

trim herald

lunar cypress

lunar cypress

@trim herald go to frontera grill if you're in terminal 1 !!

#

#

cold nacelle
#

wait guys

#

i got in for physics

#

is it possible to transfer into fye

#

before coming into the school

#

had a change of heart

near horizon
near horizon
#

when you are at purdue i think you can

cold nacelle
#

eh its ok

near horizon
#

if you do well in prereqs

cold nacelle
#

ill just transfer year 2

#

i have enough ap credits to take me out of math and physics for the first year

#

5 on e&m, mechanics, and calc bc

cold nacelle
#

i think i can just take the eng/cs classes if i test out of everything else

#

might buy the clep for chemistry too

near horizon
#

but if you do allat, and go straight into harder classes your grades might tank

cold nacelle
#

nah im like good at math/phys tho

#

like im p confident in my study skills

near horizon
#

like i dont know you , but if you are confident thats good

#

then you dont have anything to worry about

cold nacelle
#

im not commited yet

#

i wanna go to gatech so bad

#

comes out rd on march 27th oos

near horizon
#

oh shit ok

cold nacelle
#

i got deferred

#

ea

near horizon
#

niceeee

cold nacelle
#

was praying for an accept but its ok

near horizon
#

i hope they take you

cold nacelle
#

our school gets 2 gatechs a year and only 2 people got deferred

#

everyone else reject

#

so hopefully

cold nacelle
#

its my dream school

#

so fucking cheap and so fucking worth it

#

but would not be mad at all if go to purdue

#

im just worried abt social life at these schools

#

people keep telling purdue is dead asl

elfin swallow
#

if i dont get into michigan or ucla or ucb

#

i prob gonna go to purdue

cold nacelle
#

parents didnt let me apply to mich

#

berk im prob cooked

cold nacelle
elfin swallow
near horizon
#

as of RN im between udub and gatech

#

but there is a small chance i get something else to consider

cold nacelle
cold nacelle
#

MACS seems great

#

And placement into SWE roles @ Stripe and other tech cos is amazing

#

UW is great for like Amazon and tech placement too tho ig

#

So u cant go wrong

#

with either

lunar cypress
#

placement is lowkey the last thing i'd care about

#

you will get good jobs from either of them

#

do you like the campus? courses on offer? facilities you can use? faculty? would you prefer to be closer to home?

#

all things i'd consider before considering jobs given the two colleges

cobalt cloud
#

do decisions drop every time at 5pm EST?

#

if theres a wave today

#

bro my friend is crashing out

#

lol

lunar cypress
#

we do not know

#

that's the thing

#

they dropped a wave on a random tuesday at like 6pm

#

tell him to calm down lmao there'll be a decision by the end of the month for sure
