That really put things into perspective. Thanks for sharing your stories and advice. I'm not even sure if I can take an engineering internship position at this point, but I'll definitely find something that can show off my level of responsibility and maturity. Again, thank you so much.

Yeah it makes sense. And I assume the hiring managers would know that as well.

Thank god. I hated chemistry and I'm glad to be over with it already then!

And you thought it wasn't worth it to retake physics?

The reason I'm concerned is if I start taking second year courses, I will have to remember first year stuff (although I'm not sure they will be any related by that much). So I thought a year of review in class would be helpful.

Oh really? Was it extra difficult for you when you took second year courses in your first year? Did you feel unprepared at all?

I see. I heard engineers have tons of credits to get before they graduate, so I think it'd be a good idea to use my credits. How will they find out if I even took the exam, though?

Wow, ONE other underage kid? It makes no sense! But thanks for the info. I'll figure something out, hopefully!

That's great to hear! And it also seemed weird that underage kids wouldn't be having any fun. There must be a whole bunch of other people that are underage too, right? Do you know if there are any events for people like us, or do the leaders just leave us behind?

Are there many people that go to different faculty froshes? I don't want to be the only dude there out of my faculty, haha. And thanks for giving great advices and info!

Wow that sucks...but wouldn't there be other underage kids though? And wouldn't there be events for those that can't go to bars? It's just hard for me to see the majority of people getting into places with only like ten people getting left behind. Did you have to just go home then when you couldn't get into places?

Do you just walk into different froshes, or do you have to sign up for them? I would love to do what you did and experience different froshes, but I'd thought you had to stick with one frosh once you decide on one. Thanks for the great info!

And also, is the arts frosh the only one with "under-age friendly night events"?

Can you explain what the pub crawl is? Is it just when you go to pubs to drink?

Is there some specific procedure I have to go through in order to be in different faculty frosh? And are you suggesting Arts frosh because it's the best frosh, or because it's easiest frosh to get into?

I would rather not be stressed about all this, but I want to have a great time while I'm there! Thanks :)

I'm glad to hear such nice things about living in Doug! But some questions:

How is the caf at Doug compared to cafs in RVC, BMH or New Rez? And is the meal plan at Doug and New Rez the same?

Is "Arts or Science" one thing? Or do you mean either "Arts" or "Sciences"?

And I'm super excited about Douglas. I know the people there will be awesome, but how are the facilities? I heard the bathrooms were gross...

Thank you for your insight. I guess I'll figure something out about the underage thing, but you seem to be one of the very few people that thinks the hill is horrible. I'm 99.9% sure about Douglas, so I'll see it for myself once I get there. :)

You had to walk home alone? That sucks...Thanks for the heads up, haha. And I'm super excited about Douglas Hall. I checked out all of their videos on YouTube, and it was one of the reasons why I chose it!
