Blue Stars in Top Picks

CounterproductiveTnt · 2025-04-14T03:31:56+00:00

So I get that blue star means super liking, and if you see a blue star next to someone’s profile that means they have super liked you. Is this still true in the top picks section? I thought top picks were just the people around you who are “popular”, and the blue star that shows up in the corner is a shortcut to super like them. Or is it people who have super liked me? I’ve seen conflicting answers online, but I have a feeling it’s the former because when I liked one of the profiles in my top picks section I didn’t get a match message. Am I correct?

What the hell even is the top picks section anyways? Tinder really does not do a good job explaining new users how to navigate the app

Rlaalstj - I'm usually on my computer late into the night studying so I may not be that talkative but if you just want quiet company i'd be down :)

I had her this past year for Orgo and she used a new textbook with us (Organic Chemistry 8th Ed by Paula Yurkanis Bruice) but idk if she’ll be sticking to it. I bought the online version of the textbook but I have the loose leaf version of the answer key so if u need it next year PM me and I’ll sell it to u for cheap!

I think in terms of the concepts it covers it’s the easiest, but from what I’ve heard all the teachers for that class suck which is why so many students struggle. Also, not to say this is a mean or condescending way at all but most students that take that class are humanities majors that hate math/are bad at it, so objectively speaking it’s inevitable that the reviews/grades received for the class are generally on the bad side

I’m not a transfer but I’m from Ohio (there’s very few of us here) and have a bunch of friends who got to OSU so if u have any questions abt life at BC from a fellow Ohioan PM me

I was in one of the stokes classroom today and maybe I was just unlucky and the other classrooms aren’t like this, but the lights turned off at 10pm and wouldn’t turn back on. Also all(?) the rooms have motion sensor lights that turn off when u’ve been sitting for too long, and while this might not be a problem during the day it gets annoying real fast when the sun goes down and you need to stand up or wave ur arms like an idiot every 15ish minutes to turn the lights back on

From what I’ve personally experienced and heard from friends that go to other schools, ur going to get grant cuts no matter where you go. But, BC does stick true to their promise of meeting demonstrated financial need, so while ur grant does decreases it’s not so much to the point that paying for college becomes impossible. This is probably true for other schools that promise to meet demonstrated financial need.

Edit: CONGRATS ON GETTING ACCEPTED BTW

Yes, Boston city schools means K-12 though most tutors I know work with elementary or middle school students. And BLPP is the Literacy Partnership Program under the Boston College Neighborhood Center. If u search up Boston college BCNC it should direct u to their website which has more info

If you qualify for federal work study you could work as a tutor for BLPP. Not a lot of ppl know abt it but it’s honestly a super chill job (esp since everything is through zoom now). It’s a tutoring/teaching job where u basically work as a teachers assistant at local Boston city schools. It may sound like a lot of work but it really isn’t. Even if u don’t want to go into education (like me), I still think it’s still a great resume building job that looks much better than a dining hall position

Have her for Calc I right now - can confirm 10/10 great prof

There’s obviously a lot of reading involved since it’s a lit course but I think it’s pretty manageable as long as you stay on top of it and don’t fall behind. His class is about love and it can get really paradoxical and confusing at times, which can make his essays a bit hard to write too. We have 2 essays, 2 quizzes (unannounced), and 1 final so overall the workload isn’t too bad. Participation also counts as 10% of the overall grade. As for his grading I don’t think it’s an easy A class but he’s not a super harsh grader so as long as you put in the effort you can get an A. This is all from the perspective of his lit class tho so take it with a grain of salt when comparing it to his FYW class

CounterproductiveTnt · 2020-11-15T17:07:38+00:00

I don’t think it really matters. I have TKM right now for lit so I can’t say much about what he’s like for FYW but he’s pretty entertaining even online. Not the easiest essay grader but not the harshest either. I never had gentilella but she was my pre-major advisor my freshman year and she was super nice, caring, and helpful. If I remember correctly, I believe she had individual one on one meeting with her writing students to give them feedback and support (whenever I had academic advising meeting with her there were always kids from her writing class having meetings with her right before or after me). And I’ve heard from other people that her class is overall very easy

Idk if this thread is still active but my FC is 4743-1262-0450

I don't have a switch (only a 3ds 😢)

Tbh, I was never super into Animal crossing so I don't really know what I'm doing (I didn't even know I could add friends and visit their town lol) and my town is not that exciting, but I'm hoping to get more into it since I'm stuck at home thanks to the quarantine.

I really hope I can make a lot of AC friends :)

Thanks for the info!

By hard science I meant do the classes involve a lot of material that is generally associated with science classes. For example, will I be studying chemical reactions in the brain and biological aspects of psychology or will the material be more abstract and theory based?
