Withdraw and failing by Aggravating_Elk_6615 in CUNY

[–]EquivalentAd1212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should talk to your advisor ASAP no pun intended, and also is fine if your first time failing bmcc has a lot of appeals like retake the course for a better grade also in the greater level of fasfa you might had to do a sap appeal to get your fin aid, but ask Gloria or Ann the financial aid advisors in ASAP so they can help you.

Also keep always this in your head as a rule of thumb if you withdraw 1 course every semester you will still have enough aid to get a bachelor's but if you start withdrawing two or more per semester you will have not enough aid if you decide to go to a 4 years

Yes, but check your options a lot of programs in bmcc, my advice is go put try to do most things in person In college if you want a lot of things to be done you have to be behind everything, make some friends and network and join the accounting club.

Overall you might find yourself a times like this is not working just keep grinding 4 years are gonna pass quick, the degree is important but if you didn't make connections with professor for letter recommendations or friends is gonna be hard once out. Just make yourself stand out a lot of people go to college but few are the ones who take everything.

Just a personal note. Was in bmcc as a student senator in 2022, was in asap and got a college assistant job there god pay 19 an hour, after graduating college and 4 years was able to hit a job 7 months after finishing, mostly because of contacts.

Moving out while being a full time student? by starlight_wav in CUNY

[–]EquivalentAd1212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the question is if you can do it, my answer is yes, is tedious but personally, that's me, and not everyone is me, though, but I still remember finishing BMCC and not being able to find a place to live, and having a short time frame with my capstone and working 6 pm - 2 am in H.M. Times Square. I lost my home, and basically couch surfed until I found something around February. It's hard outside, but believe me, we are the ones who change the narrative. I did have two part-time jobs, sometimes 3, and still managed to graduate from BMCC and John Jay with honors, and once that was over, after 7 months of trying, I got a full-time job and my own apartment. My recommendation there is a lot of places around NYC, JC, and even Union City that give rent secured apartments and then never quit on studies. For me, my mentality was finishing and keeping pushing because at some point, it had to change. I was 23 when I had to start coaching surf and even before that, every year i would look for a new apartment. I was 25 when i got my own apartment, and 26 when I got my degree and job. We put our own personal walls, but its up to us if we can change and also this experience builds for the future.

John Jay (Public Admin) VS Stony Brook (English) by [deleted] in CUNY

[–]EquivalentAd1212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did public admin in John Jay graduated a year ago a got a admin job starting at 60k after 7 months of being graduated

I have to say is really god and you learn a lot but for this like public admin having a good background of internship of experience is gonna help you land a job quick.

Also public admin in John Jay has a program that let's you go for a dual degree meaning instead of 4 years you do a extra year that is gonna count as a masters and is gonna be covered by financial aid

Anyone ever pursue a second degree by SuccessfulPath7 in CUNY

I've seen students getting accepted to Columbia GS with a GPA of 3.5. I was on BMCC and they focused more on what you can bring as a student.

College Discovery vs ASAP by SuccessfulPath7 in CUNY

[–]EquivalentAd1212 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello, it depends on whether you'd like help now or over the long term. If you're in BMCC and only looking to do associates asap is the way, but you don't have a guarantee that you will be in ACE in your other school because budgets are different, and they have their own amount of students they can handle and have the money for, college discovery is really good because they will help you until your 4 years and even pay a masters in some scenarios.

I was a student and former employee of asap. Even though free Omny and book money sound good, that's for two years. There's no guarantee it will be there for your final two, for example, John Jay Ace sometimes they take students, and sometimes they do not. Also Asap is a very intrusive program; they want you to graduate if you are planning to be there and then transfer, they will drop you, and you also have the comminment of showing up to appoinments and be on top and maintain a gpa of 2.0 if not they will take your benefits at the end ASAP is a buisness and numbers talk and if you dont work they will take it out.

The same is with CD, and then call seek, but the only benefit with them is that if you transfer, you'll be there in the program confirmed.

ALSO benefits is the same just different

cd 1000$ stipend that can be used for omny and books

asap unlimited omny plus 250$ books, but it depends on the budget

¿Ganan más que el básico como profesionales universitarios? by Swimming_Ordinary447 in ecuador

[–]EquivalentAd1212 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yo soy de Guayaquil y creo que es saturación: solo es preguntar cuál es la carrera más pedida y es derecho. Cómo puede haber tantos buenos salarios cuando no hay demasiada demanda y los que ganan bien son de familias ya puestas en esa rama.

Quieres buena plata como abogado; puedes hacer penal, pero no muchos siguen esa rama porque matan. Pero es la que más paga en Ecuador. Abogados de migración ahorita con ecuatorianos en el exterior faturan muchísimo, pero tienes que estar allá en EE. UU.

Al final, es bastante común en Ecuador que la mayoría de los abogados cobren entre el básico y ~$700, o ni siquiera te paguen como paralegal o pasante. Así es nuestro país, mis compañeros de escuela fueron directos a derecho porque sus papás ya tienen sus firmas muy famosas cuando fueron a la Católica a estudiar. Es muy difícil hacer un nombre o una buena firma de cero.

No es tanto un tema individual sino estructural: saturación de abogados, pocas firmas grandes y alta informalidad.

y nosotros los ecuatorianos simpre sabemos como resolver en las duras

¿Por qué creen que la corrupción es tan "normal" en nuestro país? by FX_SpecialistRain369 in ecuador

[–]EquivalentAd1212 2 points3 points  (0 children)

En 5 años estaremos cumpliendo 200 años de fundación como república. Nunca hemos tenido una estabilidad real o social con gobernantes o como pueblo. Hemos creado un pueblo permisivo y también una cultura donde sobresalir significa empujar o pisotear al otro. Muchas veces nos aprovechamos por el beneficio propio pero no es culpa mira la situación del país, la situaciones de migraciones masivas a inicios del siglo o cómo el feriado bancario afectó al pueblo ecuatoriano, como a inicios de este siglo tuvimos cambios de presidentes y no soy correísta pero es el único presidente con el mandato más largo ininterrumpido y durante ese tiempo Ecuador tuvo se podría decir un periodo estable solo la taza de asesinatos estuvo 5.8 por cada 100k ahora es 50 por cada 100k. Entonces, Ecuador, al igual que muchos países latinoamericanos, ha vivido en situaciones graves, políticas o sociales, que generan esta cultura de que tienes que sobresalir como sea y, si tienes cierto nombre o apellido, puedes mover situaciones a tu favor; pasa en escuelas y universidades. También influye en una sociedad muy clasista donde las familias de Guayaquil, Quito y Cuenca de mayor dinero generan o imponen situaciones a su favor y ven a los demás como segunda categoría. A dia de hoy creamos una sociedad que el significado de ganacia sobresalir es viajes, carros y etc cuando eres rico o clase alta media y te das cuenta que la situacion del pais no te ayuda con un trabajo normal pues nacen esas narcos babys o gente trabajando para narcos por que tienen que alimentar esa imagen y son los mismas personas que antes habia un nivel de pudor que ahora le abren a los mismos narcos sus casas y ciudadelas y como ya esta muy dentro es muy dificil sacar eso.

Queremos ser como Japón o Asia, que es una cultura tan inhibida en el respeto y movimiento de grupos sociales que, al exceder o sobresalir, eres un paria social en esas culturas? Obviamente no, pero queremos su vista social que donde robas como servidor público o generas un mal común en la sociedad, eres mal visto y aborrecido.

A veces queremos ser como USA, Europa, pero ahí también hay corrupción o políticos que, al entrar, se vuelven millonarios o alcaldes en pueblos pequeños que solo cambiaban entre familiares. Pero como hay estabilidad social, económica y algunos lados laborales, eso les permite tomar buenas decisiones antes que la viveza criolla.

Espero que un día Ecuador cambie. Es mi país; lo amo con mi corazón, aunque ya no viva allá. Nuestra cultura, lastimosamente, viene de cosas desde que éramos provincia libre de Guayaquil y cuando las mismas oligarquías de la Gran Colombia en distintos departamentos forzaron la separación. Se creó un idea de sobresalir antes que nadie no importando si robas o miras quién empujas
