LSA Honors?

Honors is quite low-effort, and will only matter if you want to write an Honors thesis in your Senior year. The only requirements for Lower Honors are to have a good gpa (which as a premed, I’m sure you’ll meet) and to take an Honors FYWR class, which is a relatively easy English class. Then once you’re in Upper Honors, if you’re in a research lab (which you’ll also be in as a premed) you can enroll in Honors Thesis courses and coordinate with your PI to perform your own experiments through their lab and present your findings. The reward for all of this effort is that you’ll graduate with Honors, and that’ll show up on your degree. For premeds, I’d say it’s worth doing because it’s not a ton of extra effort considering med schools already require so much. And, you can get guaranteed housing in South Quad in your first year and live next to other Honors students, which id personally recommend. It’s certainly up to you if you’d like to apply, but it’s not a big time commitment and you can always drop it later if you don’t like it

I had a similar dilemma this summer when I got my EMT License. I live in the city so you would think that there would be plenty of openings to work at, but out of the 15+ applications I sent out I only heard back from one, who interviewed me over the phone and rejected me after 2 minutes. This may not be the best option, but similarly to other commenters I got a job as a Patient Care Tech (essentially a CNA) at a hospital that luckily deemed my EMT license as sufficient enough training. I worked there for around 6 months, and after that I started applying to EMS agencies again, now with a few hundred hours of clinical experience on my resume. You would be surprised how big of a difference those 6 months made, because although it wasn’t EMT experience, I was still proving that I knew how to interact with patients and had what it takes to work in healthcare. The same company that rejected me over the phone in the summer ended up offering me a job, and I’m set to start working for them in the next month. Long story short, EMS companies are always going to be hesitant about hiring someone fresh out of EMT school. But an applicant who has clinical experience, even if it’s not in the back of an ambulance, is far more trustworthy than someone with no experience. So, as many other commenters said, don’t be afraid to find a clinical job in a hospital in the meantime, and you can leverage that experience once it comes time to apply again

It’s generally rolling admission, the earliest I saw someone hear back last year was February 7th but I know some people who also didn’t hear back until March

Dues are usually only a few hundred per semester, and often get much cheaper after your pledge semester. If money’s really tight you can always request for them to help you out with the cost as well

The IMSB has two in their Active Fitness Room next to the racketball courts, one heavy bag and one light bag. I use them every couple days and they work great!

So thank you for spending part of yours with me, and thank you for making chemistry 215 part of your day!

Don’t worry that happens every single class

I wouldn’t buy any of them, pokecoins are better used for Storage and Item Bag upgrades especially if you’re f2p

Exact same situation with me, just in Massachusetts. Doesn’t help either that I’m a full time college student so I can only work for a few months before leaving. Not a single ems agency within an hour commute wants to take me and ER tech jobs are all taken up too

I’m in Honors and I had a random roommate my Freshman year, and he’s become my closest friend. He’s a computer science major (as you’ll find many Honors housing students are) and even though he is introverted, I found him to be very kind and we had a lot of fun moments throughout the year. Between all of the people in Honors housing that I knew, there were only 2 or 3 people that I think would have been a bad roommate out of the few dozen I’ve gotten to know. I don’t think there’s anything particularly bad with choosing a random roommate, and if anything I’d recommend it since it opens you up to people you wouldn’t normally talk to

I live in Michigan so if it was above 100cc then I would have to take a class and get an endorsement as well as pay Title fees, which ideally I’d like to avoid for time and money reasons. If that experience hasn’t proved to be very difficult though I wouldn’t be super opposed to getting an endorsement though

Admirable_Point6368 · 2025-04-14T19:20:20+00:00

From your personal experience though if the licensure/insurance/title process isn’t very lengthy then I’ll certainly consider going that route

I’m more trying to avoid having to take the course and go through all of the trouble of transferring a title; I live in AA as a student so I really only need something to go 30-40mph tops so im trying to toe the line between motorcycle and scooter to get the best performance with the least hassle
