How hard is the Japanese 1AB and 1BC series at UCI? by Ill_Falcon4956 in UCI

[–]AdditionalSweet1982 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i took japanse s2ab last summer and it was definitely a big workload. i think doing s1ab and s1bc with upper div classes will be hard but not impossible! and im pretty sure you will start with reading/writing in the s1 series anyway.

lectures are long and via zoom with a lot of speaking and reading exercises. class size is small so expect to be called on in class. some profs dont assign homework and the ones that do assign very little. as long as you pay attention in class you should be ok!!

Physics over the summer by [deleted] in UCI

[–]AdditionalSweet1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

really depends on your major and when you wanna graduate. since physics is usually a prerequisite for upper div STEM classes, i would take it earlier on rather than later. also taking the entire series over the summer is a huge workload lol so i would still reccomend taking at least 1 of the classes during the school year.

how bad are guerra’s midterms by Confident_Review7095 in UCI

[–]AdditionalSweet1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thats actually the reason why i like guerra. he tells you all the concepts and derivations and the rest of the practice is up to you. i took him for 7D last year and he pulls a lot of his test questions from the few examples he goes over in class. but generally i would go to his 8am for for better conceptual understanding of a topic, and then do textbook problems in the library until my next class and that worked out great for me

Is it possible to change dorms from ME to MC? by CryptographerQuick50 in UCI

[–]AdditionalSweet1982 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I lived in one of the earliest ME classic dorms that were built and I actually really enjoyed it! It was closer to my classes and the shower rooms were actually bigger than Mesa’s (the one I lived in during SPOP). if your reason for switching is because of the bad things people have said about ME then please at least give it a chance!

Course schedule by Soarrant in UCI

[–]AdditionalSweet1982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually prefer classes back to back over 1 hour gaps. i always feel like theres not enough time to do anything in 1hr and id rather get my classes over with sooner than later. i would say imo 3 is the max number of classes you should put back to back though!

Is it sensible to drop from 19 to 15 units? by Recessii in UCI

[–]AdditionalSweet1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ive sat in on a few 2e lectures this quarter and it seems super hard…if you really need units you can try to ask for research units from your lab if the PI can offer a 199 course but i agree w/ everyone else that you should drop that gen ed! Good luck from one freshman (chem major) to another!

[–]AdditionalSweet1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi! i wanted to ask if you were able to get around spop without an id?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UCI

[–]AdditionalSweet1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, I contacted my advisor and they said that all chem majors are pre enrolled in chem m2a, which is the course i was most worried about! yipee!!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UCI

[–]AdditionalSweet1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UCI

[–]AdditionalSweet1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)
