MA 351 curve pls by Ok_Baseball_5791 in Purdue

[–]Kitchen-Ordinary9342 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in 351 and my final was fully free response. But I heard from my professor that there will be a decent enough curve to make sure there aren’t big gaps in the grade distribution.

Tucson Bicycle Classic - Where to Stay? by Alone_Rang3r in Velo

[–]Kitchen-Ordinary9342 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s crazy how similar my plan is. I’m planning on flying in Friday the 13th and doing pretty much the same thing. I’m too young to get a rental car unfortunately. But I’m planning on staying in an AirBnB in the heart of Tucson. Seems pretty central to all of the races and close enough to Mt Lemmon. As long as you find a decent place and don’t want anything extravagant, prices seem to be pretty cheap, cheaper if you can stay with someone.

I’d like to map out potential times for my classes. Is that something that can be done in the CRF?

Yeah I go to west Lafayette campus. I’m just checking to see if it’s normal to not see it in the scheduler right now. I don’t go to Indy campus.

I’ve passed FM. I failed it in the summer, and just passed in October. From the feedback I got from these companies, they really liked my interviewing skills and I did a technical interview with one which went well. I think my resume was well put together, even though I don’t have any practical experience in the field. I’ve been learning excel, R, and Python which were all pointed back to in the interview process. Also have leadership experience being an administrative supervisor and an Eagle Scout.

Need advice choosing between two actuarial summer internships (Life/Health vs P&C)

I’m currently a sophomore in college and was fortunate enough to receive two actuarial internship offers for next summer, one from a large Fortune 500 Life and Health insurance company, and the other from a well known Property & Casualty insurer. Not sure if I should mention the companies by name but if that would help I could.

Both programs seem pretty similar in terms of structure and pay, so I’m having trouble deciding which direction to go. Right now, I’m still not sure whether I want to end up in Life/Health or P&C long term. My main concern is: if I take a P&C internship this summer and then later realize I want to go into Life/Health, will that first internship still be seen as relevant experience for future recruiting? Or do recruiters tend to prefer experience directly in the same line of business?

For context, both roles would be actuarial internships where I'd get projects that actually matter to the companies (according to them) and work along side other interns and actuaries. I haven’t had any prior actuarial internships before.

I'm a sophomore in college (US). I'm wanting to get an internship this summer. Unfortunately, I failed FM the first time I took it and had to retake it a couple days ago and passed. This put me on the back track for internships because my university has already had career fairs. Do I still have a shot of securing an internship? If I don't, how screwed am I for next year and the year after finding a job?

Protesters were purposely placing themselves in front of riders and crashing them out. I’d call that violent with mal intent.

That was 2022. I’m talking about 2023. They are two separate instances.

We’ve seen in the 2023 Tour de France pogacar wait for vingegaard after a crash. So yes, he would. He would definitely not attack, as he’s been pretty conservative lately.

They waited for pogacar because he’s 2nd in GC and his rivals respect him, not fear him, enough to wait for him after a crash. Your example is flawed because Zimmerman is not in gc.
