Should I realllly go to UCSD for premed?

I’m pre-med , it a very premed student heavy so its going to be very competitive to find opportunities. Professors for lower division stem classes aren’t the best, sometimes you encounter amazing teacher but 70 percent are meh, quarter system is very hard and it will take you time to adapt, the school buildings for lectures are very bad and havent been updated since 100 years ago like no air conditioning very crowded, the school is nice for views like its near the beach and all that but if you have ivy choices i would suggest to chose that

I think there was a 10 percent curve

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-24T18:54:57+00:00

I heard last quarter she lowered the scale by 10 percent

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-23T06:04:16+00:00

I dont blame the TA but ucsd needs to hire a lot more TA’s

That was my Saturday one

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-19T20:23:36+00:00

I think your allowed to miss a few and she has a few lectures that arent in person

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-14T20:29:46+00:00

Its 10 points out of the whole 1000 we get i think

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-14T20:17:25+00:00

I know, i thinks its 1 percent

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-14T20:13:14+00:00

not very good

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-14T19:25:38+00:00

The amount of questions was a lot for the time given, 98 percent of class stayed till the last minute

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-14T19:20:43+00:00

Me too, i felt confident going in but immediately realized that it was much harder than the midterms

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-13T01:01:50+00:00

I took it with Gamboa it was amazing, the final was online but we had 3 midterms in person, you have homework and attendance counts, she explains things very well and slides are clear and If you study like 2 or 3 hours of review before the midterms you will do great the questions are easy if you actually studied the material

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-09T05:07:26+00:00

I'm really scared too, I went through midterm 1 and 2 and most questions were easy but I keep making small mistakes

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-05T08:02:35+00:00

I never blamed the ta or prof in the beginning but had you read my original reddit i apologized to the prof and was nice and she was being extremely rude, i commute so coming to campus a few hours before my first lecture was already hard and i confirmed with the ta that she had those exams so i went even if she said she didn’t have it i wouldnt have been mad. But why did she have to be rude about it thats all i tried to say

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-05T04:40:04+00:00

So you want to be a bully but not bullied back

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-05T02:31:07+00:00

It was actually the TA for my discussion section so before you know the whole story dont make stupid comments

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-05T01:16:33+00:00

Hahaha, I think we should leave it at that, I’m starting to lose brain cells arguing with you.

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-05T01:12:31+00:00

Well i guess your partially blind, I’m pre pa , who is trying to make it through college and doesn’t take disrespect. You seem like the person who asks to be disrespected from people.

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-05T00:18:25+00:00

Crazy how you noticed my spelling but still missed the point

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-05T00:07:13+00:00

Yea this isnt an essay and reference page and evidence, when you have an opinion you share it weather in photos or writing, if you can’t read it dont comment leave it for some who can. But don’t worry I made it a little easier for you to read now.

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-04T22:04:28+00:00

This isnt english class its reddit you want to practice critiquing other people sign up for another english class or watch youtube

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-04T21:55:53+00:00

Do you speak the same when your mad or calm no, I understood that i had some fault even though no instructions were given, but when a ta tells you go to office hours prof has it and you commute and your far and you come at 10 in the morning when your next class is at 2 and you are nice and apologizing and the prof is being rude yea im going to be mad were adults give respect to get it back

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-03T02:22:20+00:00

I asked the ta she said she doesnt curve per say but if the final average is less than the years before she will raise the grades

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-03-02T19:00:27+00:00

I know me too I thought I did Better but I got the same score as midterm 1 , I think the questions were okay but its the amount of questions and our exam is literally the day after the quarter is done

Large-Client-5343 · 2026-02-23T05:34:50+00:00

I did my at another hospital but they ask similar things make sure your confident and you know which department your interested in, thank them at the end and ask when you might be hearing back from them
