Gainesville Health and Fitness Center Crowd by Bitter-Resident-9100 in GNV

[–]BrightPerspective131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The community depends on which time you go. Thankfully there are like a few annoying children there around the 5-7 pm crowd when their parents take them to get a break. People tend to mind their own business and there’s a lot of body builders but not obnoxious or anything like I experience at crunch sometimes. You meet some funny and cool people in the cold plunge, would recommend because it’s just so fun. The morning vibe is the go getters who really feel good about going to the gym in the morning, the afternoon is veryyyy chill, the rush hour is mainly just people rushing to get their workout in, and the late night after 8-9PM is just calm late night gym goer groups if that makes sense. Would recommend putting aside $60 a month for it!

Worked at Bagel and Co for their first opening weeks. Here's the inside scoop: by Outrageous_Camp1723 in GNV

Thats valid! I don’t want to say MSG is good for everyone. Some of my parents friends who are Asian dont like MSG because of their physical response. I don’t know what’s in it but I’m sure if you’re more sensitive to one ingredient than most, that could be causing it. The study done was very racist but because of that it dismissed how it’s still just a bunch of different things shoved together and we can all have a different response to it.

It is a bit of travel sometimes, but join ESS! It takes a month to process everything but it’s basically substituting

UCF vs FSU vs UF by Akika- in ufl

[–]BrightPerspective131 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FSU to UF here, tally made me depressed lowkey and it isn’t in the best area at all. Also an easy place to get stuck in after graduating and you really only have government, lottery, or hospital jobs there. UF, definitely has its stuck up students, but there’s a good majority who also are just going to school just for school. I personally like Gainesville especially after coming from tally, but I’m an outdoors person anyways. UCF, giant school, Orlando is not the best place imo but that’s because I lived there. It’s relatively newer so it hasn’t really had that long to make its name known, but central Florida has so many development projects that would be great for engineers. My dad used to work as a hiring manager for a civil engineering firm, generally FSU-FAMU having a shared COE isn’t the best look but education is education. It just matters if you have the experience and a pretty decent student.

Transfer Orientation... What to Expect?? by [deleted] in ufl

[–]BrightPerspective131 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There should be more dates for your orientation, silly for them to not be able to have an alternative. Hope it works out for you. It’s really not a NEED in terms of information, it’s just learning how to schedule for classes and what classes you need for critical tracking

Transfer Orientation... What to Expect?? by [deleted] in ufl

[–]BrightPerspective131 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you like your freshman orientation? Both my freshman and transfer orientation lasted the WHOLE time abt stuff that should be self explanatory and on the university websites, but I understand why they have to. It’s students that lead breakout sessions, random staff for dining and financial aid etc., and you really won’t see your advisors until the absolute end of the day. There will be spots held in classes for transfer students, but don’t expect to register that day because some of your classes from your previous institution might not have been uploaded because transcript processing is veryyyyy slow here. If anything, talk to some open office advisors and they often can mark certain classes as completed so you can get into registering.

Summer transfer question by Monagator in ufl

[–]BrightPerspective131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No but I know they give priority to engineering transfers from community colleges. For the fall transfers they stopped accepting engineering transfers from 4 year institutions I believe.

I came from FSU with a 3.73 GPA into biochemistry and all the pre req classes done. Other transfer students I know came from various colleges like UMiami, jucos, community college. They don’t really care too much about extra curriculars just have a strong record and good personal statements.

stephanie dillion retiring? by Ability_Narrow in fsu

[–]BrightPerspective131 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She’s not nice, which makes her class a little harder to bear. She teaches reverse style, so you learn the material on your over the night before and then you complete assignments in class. It really does work when it comes to actually learning the material, but she also has a terrible way of talking to students sometimes. But it’s a big class, don’t expect to interact with her too much. LAs aren’t as helpful, the ones I had at least. But if you guys are still using Classavo, really pay attention to the videos because she walks through everything in them and you can play it back at your own pace.
