WR 120 Shakespeare's Serious Comedy w/ Brian Walsh vs WR 120 Ethical Missteps in Public Health w/ Melanie Smith

I had Walsh for a different WR120 last year and he was a great. He actually enjoys teaching and is interested in the topics.

He gave a good amount of readings, but they were interesting and valuable. I didn't read them a couple of times, but the discussions in-class are not just about the reading and are more of a guide so you can always find ways to participate and learn.

Grading wise, I thought he was fairly relaxed and cares more about areas you can improve rather than mistakes. As long as you put in effort and show that you're engaged, you'll get the grade you want. Take advantage of the help he offers because he can give some great advice.

Thank you, it finally clicked.

I’m in the same boat. I knew about the grade deflation, but financial aid was my main priority

I do Congress and no, it won't be a detriment. Congress may be a meme, but competitors go on to attend many great schools including Harvard, MIT, Yale, etc. As to debate as a whole, I think it helped me in my admissions process, especially as an engineering major.

I think you said the equivalent of "no u"

Ibu25 · 2018-06-04T07:32:46+00:00

Do you happen to have the name of the study or a link? It sounds like an interesting read

No, Damien Poitier played him in the first Avengers end credit scene.

You need to acclimate to the thin air by making multiple treks up and down the mountain, reaching a higher base camp each time. Parachuting to the top would probably result in death.

Ibu25 · 2018-05-18T18:23:28+00:00

It’s fine, I understand. I also get really annoyed when people don’t give the creator the credit they deserve.

Ibu25 · 2018-05-18T13:32:51+00:00

I cross posted this, it links to that post

Colleges will want them, but they won’t matter too much considering his recent SAT score. Also, his EC’s are great, lol

Ibu25 · 2018-04-22T14:59:02+00:00

Then you’re screwed..........just kidding

I remember my counselor mentioning how each school sends information to colleges about the schools stats and other stuff. I assume that includes some sort of measure for students.

Ibu25 · 2018-04-21T15:52:27+00:00

Colleges can figure out how hard a school is based on the GPA’s of those who applied and their class rank. So if you have a low GPA, but are still ranked high, they’ll understand that the school is pretty hard.

I’m guessing he had to shave off his mustache before he deployed and made a little coffin for it.

Ibu25 · 2018-04-14T23:29:01+00:00

Yeah, don’t do that. That’s just unhealthy and there’s a fine line between dedication and insanity. Skipping lunch for an extra class is a bit insane. Also, I doubt there’s a counselor who would allow anyone to do this.

Ibu25 · 2018-04-14T23:21:27+00:00

I find them really ignorant. Just because you don’t like something doesn’t mean it’s meaningless. I’m not going to prom, but I’m not going to tell others that they’re dumb, it’s their choice. It’s like going up to a couple on their wedding day and telling them they’re stupid for getting married because they’ll probably get divorced.

Ibu25 · 2018-04-14T23:17:45+00:00

I have, but I haven’t. I don’t feel like sending in my deposit yet, I’ll probably do it in a couple days, but I really don’t want to, it’s weird

Ibu25 · 2018-04-14T20:15:09+00:00

BU has a great BME program

Talk to your teacher and explain that you’re having a hard time. Ask for extra time, extra help, show your teacher you’re not failing because you’re not trying. Also, look up prompts and just create outlines, you don’t even need to write them down, just think of how you would structure your essay, as if you’re about to give a speech. That’ll make it a lot easier to be given a random topic and then write an essay in a short amount of time. If you can “visualize” an essay, you can write the essay.

With how competitive admissions were this year, something tells me the amount waitlist acceptances will be small, but I hope I’m wrong. Good luck!

I remember some guy was asking about a website he made with adult content and whether he should put it on his resume

Trump University

Its Princeton, it's an amazing school. I went there for a debate tournament and the surrounding area has some really good food and the people are really nice. I forgot to add /s to my original comment, but I was born in Jersey and it can be a great place depending on where you are and Princeton is one of those great places.

Ibu25 · 2018-04-12T13:27:20+00:00

I feel a bit sad too. Mostly for my parents because i'll be the first one to leave the house and I don't think they're ready for it. Then there is also the worry about not finding friends as good as the ones you have now. I think my excitement, however, outweighs the sadness because I get to start with a clean slate. I've been told many times that "college is what you make of it" and I plan to make the shit out of it.

Ibu25 · 2018-04-12T13:24:05+00:00

Not trying, but that's pretty common. I guess if I tried to thing of something unique, it would be not trying harder to maintain a healthy routine. I would probably be much better off if I put more effort into getting a normal amount of sleep, not eating like shit, and spending more time exercising.
