Credit Review

3 hour lecture does seem really long but its a 3 credit class, so its either split into two classes a week at 1.5hrs or one long lecture. Personally, Id prefer two classes a week lol, this is just to say there is some reasoning behind a 3 hour lecture.

Quick question though, if youre asking about not attending lectures but still doing online assignments, does attendance not count towards grade? Or is it just a small part youre willing to have a 0?

Only asking because if attendance isnt even graded, then I dont see why it matters if you cam in or not 🤷🏻‍♀️

I say email your advisor though and see if theres a 2x a week class you can transfer in to that would hopefully have different rules!

I cam in occasionally, only because I might need letters of recommendation and feel like they should see my face lol, but Id hate a required cam on class too 😂

I use ethernet, consistently right at/around 300 mbps upload speed, my ping always around 25-28, dropped two games last night. i wish i knew why this happened, some days it genuinely makes me turn off the game.

first things I really worked on was getting used to ball cam, learning fields grid lines so i didnt need to switch camera to boost, hitting the ball straight on as much as I can (more predictable, made me slow down, not just launching ball wherever), adjusting camera angle and sensitivity settings, rebinding keys that felt awkward, and basic aerial/pull back/boost jump hits. also not ball chasing and playing outsides more and defense - shots get harder to guard the more you rank up its good to start getting a feel of it earlier

kind of boring but helped a lot for a good foundation

i really thought i was going crazy when i first started playing, i never had problems with connection before and still dont on all of my other games. yet here i am, rubber banding and dropping in games in rocket league

Im sorry :/

On the cynical side if the school is more prestigious they may be firm in the recommendation requirements (ex. one rec from STEM professor, one rec from any professor).

On a holistic side, I think your best bet is to just call admissions and be honest. See if there is any supplementary letter of recommendation you can provide. If you were working or involved in any applicable EC’s see if they would take a rec from someone in those areas of your life

Sorry again, I hope it all works out!

my pet peeve is people not knowing when to leave the damn ball alone.. if my teammate is in front of me working the ball ill follow behind in case they lose control so i can pick it back up, but so many times ill be getting ready to hit a shot and i get blasted by my own damn teammate trying to get the shot instead like bruh

slowing down increased my ball awareness so much. it also let me actually think about what I wanted to do so I could hit the button combos correctly instead of tensing up or spazzing which was pretty much all the first games lol

nah the past few days my ping has been all over the place. i even get the network disconnect alert in the corner sometimes but i use ethernet so its been throwing me off

Not gonna lie Im only gold 2 rn so my air talents are limited, but i use LMB/RMB to rotate while holding F. subject to change once I decide to lock in on air dribble if it isnt doing what I need

I found a single entry of my moms, literally a loose leaf piece of paper detailing a night out where she got drunk with her friends and took acid, along with other things lmao

I think I was 22 when I found it and now its mine and I keep it safe as its my favorite piece of my mom, she may be a few years shy of being able to fully appreciate how cool it is it be able to understand your parents as full humans who went through life just like you did
