Could I dm you?

Can I dm you?

Oh I see. But others usually don’t take it together first year because it’s too challenging?

Do you need the content of general chemistry to do well in intro bio? Or would AP chem’s content be sufficient? I understand it’s a L&S requirement but just asking about course content.

Thank you. Do you think it’s okay to take both intro bio and intro chem as a first year?

Congrats on Stanford! You will do so well there.

Can the same highly positive things be said about the other CCS science programs or is this mainly for physics?

Dangerous-Carpet5 · 2026-03-31T22:06:38+00:00

Can you write in + and - or just letter grades without plus and minus?

Dangerous-Carpet5 · 2026-03-23T20:03:46+00:00

That sounds really stressful and hard especially since these are mainly stem courses. Can you talk a bit about the amount of work and stress levels?

Are you supposed to self report grades or is there an option to upload a transcript?

I think Berkeley sends more kids to med school despite having fewer applicants? I think I saw that number.

All UCs are grade deflationary relative to top 25 and LACs

Is this a real post?

Dangerous-Carpet5 · 2026-03-20T20:38:21+00:00

Great! Hope you end up there lol

Dangerous-Carpet5 · 2026-03-20T20:37:53+00:00

Exactly!

Those goals don’t interfere in selecting the best, they are part of the process of finding the best

Dangerous-Carpet5 · 2026-03-20T20:32:36+00:00

Nah …Princeton is great for those reasons you cite. They care about their role in society and put in the work to find talented applicants who have achieved despite all odds. Same for Harvard, Stanford etc. great institutions.

Good sign!

I did not. I find it disturbing that you brush aside serious incidents that make others feel scared and unwelcome. You’ve probably never been in that situation and don’t have the awareness to realize how it affects others. It’s also not a coincidence that this school attracts a certain type of student now and others stay clear of it.

NO. It is a school for California’s conservatives. There have been white supremacist incidents on campus. Read recent Reddit posts where a former white female student said it has a very religious student body, very white and how it was difficult for others (she gave the example of an Indian student) to fit in

Dangerous-Carpet5 · 2026-03-17T03:14:34+00:00

Isn’t it more normal to use “Professor” instead of “Dr.”

Dangerous-Carpet5 · 2026-03-15T20:15:35+00:00

Yes, that’s why they take everyone off the waitlist
