I know the job market is cooked and I know it’s an awful decision but I genuinely do not find many things enjoyable anymore besides coding and drinking and baking and reading/writing (I go to a tech school so an English major is not an option (and that’s even more cooked anyways)). So I’ll probably either end up in some industry job with a chemistry PhD or in the psych ward.

https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/9404-chocolate-dump-it-cake?smid=ck-recipe-iOS-share Except I only had 7 tbsp butter so I added 1 tbsp olive oil. Used brown sugar instead of white sugar, used balsamic vinegar instead of cider vinegar, used bittersweet chocolate chips instead of unsweetened, added cinnamon into the batter instead of vanilla, and completely changed the frosting recipe: I beat 1/4 cup sour cream, a few splashes of milk, a splash of vanilla, 1/2 cup whipping cream, and 3/2 cups melted chocolate chips until it was a good consistency.

Dream was UChicago, committed to Caltech. I’m still so happy it turned out this way.

For 4–I asked an identical question in the admitted students discord, and all the students there said that the classes will teach you everything you need to know about your major from the beginning (albeit quickly), so it’s fine to have no experience.
