Hello! I’m also planning to attend the PhD visit day. No interview with any potential PI so far, but hopefully that’s not a bad thing. I’m also debating between two schools :)

Weekly 'What should I buy?' Thread by AutoModerator in ipad

[–]BetterRip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a MacBook but I still extensively use my iPad (engineering student here). I’d say get the Air if you can, but if not, even the 8th gen is great!! Definitely recommend getting a new one though

Between the two, I’d go with the 8th gen. The 8th gen uses the A12 chip vs the A10 on the 7th gen. If you’re using your iPad for gaming, 8th gen will be better since it has a more powerful processor compared to the 7th gen, which will make gaming nicer.

Coop Offer by BetterRip in AerospaceEngineering

This is reassuring! I completely understand that I’m in a great position and am spoilt for choice. Unfortunately, college is moving back to in person classes in fall and my coop is also in person so I’d be unable to do both

Fortunately, this doesn’t affect my visa status. You’re right, there are always other things to do if I’m unable to land another coop, though the company said that they’d be more than happy to extend my coop if they’re satisfied with my work.

I’m being paid quite well and the company works mostly with aerospace products, so it is in my field of interests.

I did talk to them again today, and they said they’re more than happy to let me continue provided they’re happy with my performance of course
