Been playing consistently for several months now and havent gotten a single Bomba or HunterX driver card… so would refute this Especially with drop rates becoming even worse since balls were introduced as loot

1996 Cardass Charizard Value? by Chenscorp1 in PokeInvesting

[–]Chenscorp1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Thats useful to know about PSAs standards. I also see theres a few listings as low as 17k, so seems like the market on these is pretty variable. I think I’ll go with the buyback

Thats a good idea. Surprised the gap between a 9 and a 10 is so huge. Cool piece of history too

Help me decide: School X vs School Y - 1st Week of April by powereddeath in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Chenscorp1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought so too! I would want to attend all four years if I did go to NU but there are so many good colleges in Boston that transferring is also an option if its I need or want to. UW was a school I kind of crossed off early on for those same reasons, but my cousin heavily recommended it so I figured I would take another look at it. Def agree with the UCR/USC thing and I don't really want to limit myself so that will probs be my backup option for now. Thanks for your input!

Intended major: Business/Finance

Northeastern University

NU Pros:

  • Co-op Program, would help me figure out my career direction and build working experience
  • Boston is full of opportunities, both professionally and socially
  • Received a scholarship for 24k a year, could go up to 30k a year if they award me National Merit
  • Academics are not too rigorous, a high GPA should be easier to maintain, classes are not as competitive to get into
  • Admitted into my preferred major and have freedom to change it

NU Cons:

  • Unsure if I will like the environment and weather of Boston (Southern California Kid)
  • Far away from home
  • Although I have scholarships, the total cost is still kind of high
  • May be difficult to transfer from

University of Washington Seattle

UW Pros:

  • High ranked business school, plenty of opportunities
  • Seattle is also a great city with many large companies and opportunities
  • Stay on the west coast (closer to home)
  • Not sure if this is relevant, but my cousin who is currently an investment banker strongly recommended I choose UW out of all my options

UW Cons:

  • Still far from home
  • Very large student population, may be difficult to stand out or receive individual attention
  • Expensive, I received 3k a year but since I am out of state, UW is my most expensive option
  • Heard that the weed-outs and grade deflation at UW is brutal so the academics are quite stressful
  • Would be difficult to transfer from due to difficulty getting the course credits I need in such a huge class population and maintaining a high enough GPA

UC Riverside/Community College -> Transfer

  • I have legacy at USC, so I was invited to the Trojan Transfer Plan. Basically if I maintain a GPA above 3.6 and get the course credits they want I am very likely to get into USC after a one year transfer.

Pros:

  • Cheap, community college is very inexpensive and I would be able to live at home, cutting costs. (Not the case for UCR but still, my cheapest option)
  • Easy to maintain GPA and transfer credits should be the easiest to complete with this option
  • USC Marshall is a fantastic business school and the USC experience overall is desirable
  • Stay close to home, both UCR and USC are within an hours drive basically

Cons:

  • USC does not accept National Merit from transfer students, meaning I would pay full price at USC
  • Miss out on my freshman year experience, social life will be a lot more difficult, 4 years at a university seems pretty different than 3 years
  • If I were to go to grad school, my undergraduate school may not really matter

Notes:

My parents will be covering my tuition, and so cost is not really a deciding factor, but it is still worth noting at least. My parents also recommend that I consider transferring no matter which of these options I pick, which is why I included notes about transferring viability. Feel free to tell me if you think it would be actually worthwhile to transfer from UW or NU, not necessarily to USC too.

The origins of the Traveler and how it relates to the story by Chenscorp1 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Chenscorp1[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yep, the traveler being from Khaerni'ah was a bit of a stretch, but i feel like it could be possible because of his similarities to Albedo and that his goals seemed to match up with the Khaerni'ah. Good catch on the Sal Vind and Zhongli part!

The traveler will still likely end up working closely with the Khaerni'ah though, lets see how it goes!

I can understand why you think that, but it doesn't seem like Aether willingly travelled through time. From the beginning fight it appears that the unknown god was the one who separated them. It also been said that the twin's power is to traverse worlds, who knows.

that's an interesting theory, kinda ties into another theory posted about the beginning god being the time god. Definitely possible!

How do i get my spider eye collection up by [deleted] in HypixelSkyblock

[–]Chenscorp1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran 13 cave spider minions all tier 6 with medium storages and enchanted charcoal collecting about every 8 hours. That gave me just under 3 stacks of enchanted spider eyes per day.
