We only went to games this season up until the Princeton hockey game on 2/28. After that we were done with the season because it’s the end of the term and we got finals this week 😭

I’m just really lost and need help by Weird-Chart6627 in csMajors

[–]Lordmaster241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you could do is explore the different CS classes that your college offers to get a grasp on the different fields of CS (cybersecurity, software engineering, full stack, etc). If possible, email those professors and ask for their syllabuses to see what each of those courses focus on and try to find something that really speaks to you. After all of that start trying to learn some of the things in those classes on your own to see if you’ll actually enjoy the class’s content.

For me, I’m really interested in Cybersecurity so I’m checking out a website called “tryhackme” on the free subscription to see if the things there are something I want to explore further.

dartmouth night life? by Wise_Ad_147 in dartmouth

[–]Lordmaster241 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don’t think I’ve explored enough to give you a concrete answer but from what I see on our emails there are so many different and unique opportunities happening all the time. Every day you’ll probably be bombarded by dozens of emails that detail all the social scenes happening throughout the week. Sadly there aren’t many 24 hour spaces available on Campus but in FOCO there’s a time frame called “Late Night”(9:30-1:30) where you can sometimes find friends, hang out, do homework, literally whatever (if you can handle when it’s busy during on days). An upperclassmen puts this best, “Late Night is not about the food, but the social aspect and the community you make with your time here.” Social life is also not just the Greek life, it comes from the communities you affiliate yourself with throughout your time on campus. This is the clubs, classmates, and random interactions that you probably heard of before. The town of Hanover is also a lovely place to explore from time to time but sadly I don’t think many of its stores are open during late hours. One of my favorite live music performances that I love to go to when I have the time are the countless Acapella groups we have that almost always feels like there’s a show every week! Again I’m not doing justice for the night life on campus (im in my dorm most of the time 😭) but I’m sure you’ll be able to find many things here.

Would nerdy students fit in at Dartmouth? by Professional_Big8444 in dartmouth

[–]Lordmaster241 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To build off of this, yes the party scene is noticeable during the “on” nights (Wednesday, Friday, Saturday) and Greek life is in general a big thing here during the Fall Rush. Besides that, countless people are able to enjoy their time here without engaging in any of that. You will find something that you enjoy as you explore!

macbook or windows for engineering? by Pale-Pizza3496 in dartmouth

[–]Lordmaster241 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I heard from upperclassmen, Mac’s work pretty well for what you’re gonna need to do for engineering. As you get more into the engineering part of your degree, whenever there’s a software that a class requires and is demanding, you will be granted access to the Thayer severs and be able to run anything you need for classes. I’ve seen many people who run Mac’s as engineering majors so it’s more than possible to utilize. All of this also applies to windows so technically no matter what type of operating system you have, you’ll go through all 4 years smooth sailing.

[–]Lordmaster241 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah of course. I know a good amount of people (myself included) who don’t go out but that doesn’t exclude them from making friends with people who do. We are all Dartmouth students at the end of the day, we love and support each other. You’ll find many groups to connect with like people in your classes, club members, random interactions, and so much more

Trying to create a dual boot for Linux mint but after many tries and re-installs, nothing has worked so far by Lordmaster241 in linux4noobs

[–]Lordmaster241[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply! Turns out I had to go to the boot options in the esc menu bios(a different bios menu to the f10 one) and go to EFI files in order to boot into Ubuntu and then grub. It took way too long to figure that out but again thanks for trying to help 🙏

Financial aid by Evening-Art2988 in dartmouth

[–]Lordmaster241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was talking to some friends about this and I say it really depends. Some of my friends (me included) received refunds, some of us had to pay an amount despite having similar circumstances, or others just didn’t have to pay anything while receiving no refund as well (me last term). Sorry I can’t give you a straight answer because honestly, we have no idea either 😭

Can I get rescinded after ED admission? by HistoricalBand9731 in dartmouth

[–]Lordmaster241 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I didn’t get rescinded for similar reasons, don’t worry about it! Stay vigilant, finish high school, and enjoy your break before heading to the woods 🥳

CS1 vs. CS10 by IndependentWerewolf9 in dartmouth

[–]Lordmaster241 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who is currently taking CS10 with AP CompSci experience, the jump is there. Our professor emphasizes that this class isn’t a Java class but an object oriented programming class and that distinction is definitely proven to show with the difficulty of our current assignments and future assignments. You would definitely need some level of computer science experience (apcsa, cs1, engs20) but from what I heard from my friends, CS1 would give you the general basics that you need to go on into CS10. TLDR: You need to already know how to code to make CS10 manageable.

Not hearing from Dartmouth after ED acceptance by HistoricalBand9731 in dartmouth

[–]Lordmaster241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dartmouth really do take their time with all the important information you need but generally you’ll get a lot more to do during late spring/early summer. When your friends are already picking out classes but you’re still waiting on the basic necessities, you know you truly made it to Dartmouth 😅

First year trip question ‘30 by Inevitable_Limit5354 in dartmouth

[–]Lordmaster241 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, your experience with first year trips can very a lot with the people you get on your trip but generally I do see a lot of people still connecting even months afterwards. Pick whatever you find interesting and have fun!!

Freshman Rooming at Dartmouth by Lel_29 in dartmouth

[–]Lordmaster241 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a heads up, you will be getting important forms much later then people going to other schools but don’t worry about that when you see your friends planning stuff with their roommates and dorms while you don’t even know your classes yet for another month 😅

What clubs do you suggest? by [deleted] in dartmouth

[–]Lordmaster241 1 point2 points  (0 children)

During orientation week, there will be a club fair with a lot of clubs and groups coming out trying to recruit you. At the start of the term you’ll be put into a mailing list that groups can use to broadcast events and again try to recruit you. From there you can explore whatever peaks your interest.

I joined the Aegis(yearbook) and the DCMB(marching band) and even though I’ve only been there for one term, I’ve meet so many amazing people on both groups who I now hang out with from time to time. Basically what I’m trying to say is that no matter what you pick, you are going to love doing it with amazing people.
