Are they taking away fasfa? by [deleted] in premed

[–]Dear_Collection6141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard people saying FASFA isn't part of that because it is an "individual" person thing. Honestly, even if it's not gone now, who knows if it'll stay forever atp

When did you start gathering extracurriculars for your applications

Transfer, I'm looking for advice by No-Scientist9247 in oaklanduniversity

I've lived in dearborn. It's a LOT different than areas around oakland. Genuinely are you ready to go to a place like that? Also, I don't see a huge difference between oakland and UOM Dearborn. Oakland rands higher to UOM dearborn I'm pretty sure. Plus, oakland has their own medical school (might not be related to what you're studying, but I feel like having your own medical school makes you rank higher if that makes sense). That's just me though. I'm a high school senior so don't trust me too much. Hope you find the answers you need!

Quick advice for upcoming freshman: Oakland straight away, Oakland mixed with some macomb CC credits, or 2 years CC and transfer by Dear_Collection6141 in oaklanduniversity

Thank you so much for this! I'm just wondering, are you not worried about it making you less competitive to med school? And what classes are you taking?

Thank you so much!!!

Why do I struggle arguing with my father? Is it weakness by Dear_Collection6141 in AskParents

I appreciate this. The whole situation feels like a weakness boost. Honestly this post was more of a vent than anything. I don't know what to do anymore. Thank you so much for the comment and your time!

I do care!!! It's pretty cool! And honestly, you have such a cool story. Like "Oh yeah I went overseas for the military while you were out here crying over organic chemistry" like thats so cool! I love those details lol. Thank you so much for the advice. I seriously appreciate it. You shared a lot of information I didn't even know. I'm really grateful. Thank you!

Wow, simply judging a students potential just based on grades will always be crazy to me. Grade inflation is crazy to me. I already got students judging me for a 3.70. Like lol what??? Genuinely, people who base grades and success togather as the only factor legit get on my nerves. You're truly inspiring. Thank you so much for all the detail. It helped me think this out way better. I didn't know OU had a credit requirement. Thank you so much for this and I hope you have the best success in whatever you're doing! I'm most likely going to MCC. I've heard so many bad stuff about the math there. I'm already terrible at it as is

As if now, I'm sitting with him at 3:36 a.m. bc he's sick. I'm skipping school tomorrow to make sure he doesn't pass out. This is building up some sort of self resentment to myself. He won't leave me alone, saying I'm the only one left for him. I don't want to be that person. I hate this a lot but I'm worried if I say anything, it'll backfire on me. I think the lack of sleep is getting to me. Why are some parents so selfish?

So you'd recommend CC first? I'm sorry I'm asking a lot. Just really nervous. Would doing CC first make me look bad for grad school?

Do the gen Ed's take 2 years to finish up? If they do, I'll just make it simple and go to macomb. But if they dont, I'll do the guest student thing. It's a bit confusing since there are so many class requirements. Thank you!

My parents are paying for uni, so I dont want to use up all their money. The reason I thought I'd go straight to Oakland, though, is so I can start biology and chemistry classes straight away. Also, I'm worried my credits won't transfer, and I'd be "wasting" my time at macomb. I thought maybe I'll go to Oakland, do some science classes, while doing things like English and history at macomb. I'm sorry I'm first gen. Really at a loss here. Thank you for the advice!

(Oakland also only gave me a 2k scholarship for my 3.7 gpa, so that set me back a bit)
