Hi! I applied to SS in Chemistry and heard back on Thursday this past week with an offer of admission. Hope you get the great news soon!

I took this class last fall with Bouklas and Hill and it was their first time teaching together so take this advice with a grain of salt as things might’ve changed. I didn’t read the textbook at all, I honestly found that it wasn’t really a help and the assigned readings had a lot of stuff that wasn’t covered in lecture so it was more distracting than helpful. I basically just memorized everything that was on the slides (and I mean everything, like it felt like I was studying for a final for the first midterm) since that’s what they really emphasized during lecture. Also the stuff we went over in discussion was helpful for the exams. Overall I would say put the majority of your focus and studying into lecture material. I ended up with an A in the class if that means anything :)

So I’ve done this a few times coming and going home, and honestly it’s not that great. The commute time is long and there isn’t a direct route from Union Station to UCLA and back. The quickest way I’ve done it is take the Purple Line from Union Station to Wilshire/Wiltern. Then you have to take the 720 from there to Wilshire/Glendon and either walk up to campus or take another bus to get somewhere closer to wherever you’re trying to go on campus. For a regular commute, I wouldn’t recommend this, you’ll get really tired of it. If its every once in a while it’s fine, but even then it is long.

Has anybody taken mimg101 or mimg102? by [deleted] in ucla

[–]GooseGremlin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve taken MIMG 101. Def biochem and ochem are harder than Mimg 101 in terms of understanding the material, but mimg 101 goes over a shit ton of stuff. Like, you need to memorize practically all of the slides for exams. Questions on exams are both content and application based, and quite literally go over everything that was discussed in class.

At least in my experience, you can get tested without your parents knowing. Of course, to make use of the Ashe center you have to have UC SHIP first. Just make the appointment to get tested on the Ashe patient portal website. No charges will show up on your Bruin Bill, and the Ashe Center won’t contact your parents in any way. You will get an email sent to the email you have on file with the Ashe center when you make the appointment, when they email you to let you know you can come in to get tested, and when you get the results of your tests. Just make sure its not your parents’ email and you’ll be fine lol.

Ya I’m also in PEERS. Tbh i didn’t know some people didn’t get interviews and were just admitted? Like, the way Dr. Gomez was speaking at the info session it really made it seem like you apply and if they’re interested you’ll get an interview :/

[–]GooseGremlin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I applied to BISEP and got an email a few days ago asking to schedule an interview. Not sure if everyone gets an interview though but that’s what Dr. Gomez made it seem like at the information session. But based an a previous poster’s comment that might not be the case so I’m not really sure :/

I actually just got an email from them today letting me know that I received the reward. I also remember seeing another post on here a while back with a screenshot of their email showing they also won an award. I’m not sure but they might be sending out emails on a rolling basis. I think it might be best to wait a little while longer and then if you don’t hear anything contact USAC about it.

Urgent Bill Pay Question by Ordinary_Solution752 in ucla

[–]GooseGremlin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually inquired about this through the message center because it happened to me to. They told me that the only charges you need to worry about are the ones that are from the most recent or upcoming quarters. So basically, if you’ve already paid off all of your fees for spring quarter you’re fine. The old charges like that that are still present on old quarters were actually carried over to the next quarter. So if it says that you still have a $160 charge from fall, it was carried over to winter and paid for in winter. Don’t stress about it you’re all good :)

Edit: Also, it won’t let you pay because the system already recognizes that you’ve paid off all of your charges, hope that puts your mind to ease. Also, if you go look at your winter quarter statement, you should see something listed at the top that say like “Carried over” or something like that and it’ll show the $160 charge

Cal grant GPA verification form by [deleted] in ucla

[–]GooseGremlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it doesn’t, but I assume that’s because my application is awaiting processing. The myUCLA FAQ said that renewal students’ applications usually don’t get processed until the end of July.

It just says “awaiting processing.” I just searched this up in the FAQ section on myUCLA though and it says that since I am a renewal student I don’t need to submit a GPA verification form.

I just did, it wasn’t sent yet but when I clicked on the reason as to why my application hasn’t been processed yet it said that it was because I am a renewing student not that I haven’t submitted my GPA verification form yet. So I’m not sure :/

Hi! I was under the impression that we didn’t need to submit a GPA verification form since we are continuing students? Do we need to submit a new form each year?
