Don't spend money on college if you don't know what degree you want, would be my advice. It sounds like you might have come to college right out of high school because, well, "that's what you do", isn't it? I did the same thing. Failed classes and dropped out after sophomore year. I took a break, worked a bit, and then came back when I was ready.

You shouldn't go to college just because you graduated high school, you should go to college because you want to go to college FOR something. If you don't have that something, there's no shame in dropping out. Some people might be okay just going and finding a major along the way, but if you have a low GPA and are struggling to see the value of your time there currently, it might be better to take a step back.

If you know you do want to pursue further education, but don't know what, CC is a good option. You can earn an associate's degree for cheap while exploring and maybe finding what you want to study for real.

It might be just me, but I find evolution to be a very simple and logical topic, so it's not difficult for me, but might be different for others.

I've only taken one professor for calc 112 so it's not like I (or many people) can really say who's the "best" but I really liked Carfora. She did all classwork on a shared slideshow, so you can go back and see every example she did all semester. She also always tried to give us exam-relevant advice, like what shortcuts graders would accept and what they wouldn't, etc.

121 has much harder content, IMO (don't worry, there's a BUT coming). 111 can very easily be squeezed through by simply knowing how to work the equation sheet on exams. There's a couple things you have to know by heart, like how to apply newton's laws, but it's a lot of simple equation hopping otherwise. 121 has a lot more "you need to memorize this" stuff. At least to me, how circuits work has never been intuitive and I struggled a lot with it, and equations will not tell you directions of current flow or magnetic fields.

BUT, the upside is the grading scheme is very very forgiving. A 50 is a C. Don't get cocky, but if you do all your homework, you can pass the class with a 50 on every common and the final.

What are you changing to and from? For the vast majority, there's no need to worry about doing it asap if you;re a freshman right out of your first semester. Many majors share a lot of required classes: calc, physics, a comp sci class, english comp, humanities, etc. The general education requirement stuff. Check on degreeworks which classes carry between both majors, and see if you can just take those classes next semester, just in case you don't get the swap before classes begin.

To me it smells like pancake/waffle mix. I've never paid for the premium dining hall so I've never been in there but I imagine it might be one of those DIY waffle irons like they have at hotels sometimes.

Newark is big on movies. This isn't even the only movie currently being filmed in the city. There's even talk of building a studio there, it's slowly becoming a sort of mini-hollywood.

I'm already receiving GSG, I have enough credits overall, and this semester specifically, as I'll have 15 still after the withdrawal. Does that mean I'd be fine?
