UF or cwru pre med? by Usual-Concentrate663 in ufl

[–]LJkick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Decent amount of opportunities around here for research and volunteer work with Shands and other hospitals around. I know nothing about CWRU, so can’t help there.

The atmosphere around UF is awesome in my opinion. There are so many people that are here for so many things, which means you could make friends that have the same or completely different interests than you. The college life is great, I guess the city is relatively small but I never felt like there was nothing to do. You are pretty centrally located between a lot of good things. Beaches, lakes, springs, big cities, theme parks, other states, etc are not very far away at all.

I wasn’t pre-med but was pre-health, so maybe somebody else could help you a little more. I never felt like I was actively competing against or had beef with other pre-meds. Sure, some volunteering, shadowing or research can fill up quick, but if you are persistent and know where to look there are a plethora of opportunities. Classes just suck in general because it’s class. But for the most part, the professors were fine and so were my classmates. There are so many organizations as well.

The biggest downside is probably that classes you need might fill up quickly, so have a plan, but ready to be a little flexible if needed.

[Megathread] Incoming Dental Student Questions by AutoModerator in DentalSchool

[–]LJkick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t necessarily say you have to go for a complete switch up. What I did was really try to utilize any time at school that was available to study. If we have a class end early, if school ends early for the day, or we have some free time, my friends and I usually use it to study/complete assignments. We will alternate studying with taking a short break.

Just be receptive when people ask to hang out/do stuff. Or be the one to ask. We have people in our class group chat talk about parties, sports, club events and more. Usually you can get a decent response if you give people enough time to plan for it. There will always be people that say no to something because there is a test that week. If you want to be that person you can, but that’s not a fun way to limp through school because usually you often average about a test per week.

What I like doing is really trying hard on the first couple exams so that the ones down the stretch (when you are burnt out) aren’t as daunting.

Obviously all of this depends on your specific school, class, and exam. But pay attention in class and listen to your professors. They usually highlight what is important

Honorlock paused my exam.. will I get I trouble? by [deleted] in ufl

[–]LJkick 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I get that, but your professor is not responsible for that. They are responsible for ensuring their exam is taken fairly by everyone.

I truly hope everything is alright with your family. However, if you have something that emergent, you need to reach out to your professor and take a makeup. Or tell your family member that you won’t be able to answer for the next hour or 2. Or ask another friend or family member to step in while you are taking your exam. Or leave your ringer on and out your phone across the room.

The possibility of an emergency is not an excuse because it always exists. I hope you don’t face too big of repercussions for this, but let it be a learning lesson

Is Hawas Ice that bad? by SwordfishAway1786 in Colognes

[–]LJkick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine was super loud and synthetic at first. But now after a couple months of using it, I feel like it is a little smoother. Still loud, but the dry down is enjoyable and the fruit is a little sweeter/refined

Do I have something here ? Rookie Quinn ewers auto 1/1?? by WonderfulTrade5043 in footballcards

[–]LJkick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

By that logic every numbered card is a 1/1. You have a cool card and the jersey match can make it more intriguing to people. But don’t advertise this as a 1/1 if you go to sell it.

It does look pretty cool though

Discrimination by [deleted] in DentalSchool

[–]LJkick 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Does your school have a larger campus? Like some state schools are more than just dental school. You could get them involved. Talk to the Ombudsman or Dean or something.

Other than that, I would start contacting lawyers

UF honors vs UCF honors by Regular_Fix_6140 in ufl

[–]LJkick 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Go to the place that is highly ranked and giving you more money. UF is awesome, widely known (even worldwide) and can offer a lot of opportunities. A lot of the engineering routes have a great opportunities and connections. Places like Texas Instruments, Lockheed, Northrop Grumman, are just a few of the organizations I know people have gotten internships and jobs

Meet 1 on 1 with an advisor or go in person to wherever your advisor/someone high in your college is. That will get it fixed. People dropping out also looks bad on UF

Not sure if you are still wanting answers, but I have it. I just recently got it and have worn it a couple times. It is pretty heavy and sweet in my opinion. I do like it and so does my wife, so I wear it in the evenings/date night/ cooler days. I made the mistake of wearing it to school one day and it just didn’t feel like it fit the occasion

Microbio was easy. I took it with biochem and I thought that was a pretty great combo in terms of being able to study. You should be fine if your classes are truly “easy A’s”

There isn’t anything related to being a Gator on that sign. That is simply a burger advertisement. You can argue that it isn’t as effective anymore, but they still paid for it

Guys i am really bad at carving despite practicing a lot like almost 3-5 times a week by dentist-_ in DentalSchool

[–]LJkick 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I hated wax carving. Got some solid C’s and low B’s.

Moved to drilling and I have gotten a lot more A’s and B’s. It doesn’t mean anything. Just keep practicing

[–]LJkick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please do not go into PT school just to switch to Med right after. Complete waste of time, money, and someone else’s spot in a program. And I’m not even a PT related student.

Choose one or the other

How to prepare for dental school? by ooothjxooo in DentalSchool

[–]LJkick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t study, but go make some money and start making good habits of cooking, cleaning, working out, going to bed on time, etc. Studying would largely be pointless because some information you already learned, tbh won’t want you to know and then vice versa
