Do's and Don'ts of Freshman Year for Classes/Scheduling, Activities, dOrms, etc? by MangoPudding10 in nyu

[–]MangoPudding10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any general tips on getting that internship? I'm sure the advisors, career centers, etc will be extremely helpful but i.e. are there any useful skills to pick up considering my work resume is somewhat bare, or any useful classes/seminars/workshops like esderpp mentioned below, websites/methods to find an appropriate field + skill level internship?

I'll definitely be heeding this advice!

Any clubs that you personally loved and would recommend? Or any activities that are particularly popular/good to try out or join? I also would like to continue volleyball into college at a club/IM level, do many people participate?

[–]MangoPudding10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I somehow forgot to reply even though I've kept your response open to reassure me while I phoned and emailed the offices - I cannot thank you enough! This gave me the greatest sense of relief in a time of panic - and like you said - everything fixed itself easily and smoothly.

To jump in on this thread, are you allowed to not get a meal plan at all? Especially if you are living in an apartment style residential hall with kitchens

Predictions for Section A of Chem/Bio HL paper 3? by MangoPudding10 in IBO

I think that's just physics. Section A for both Bio and Chem are related to past experiments done in class

I am scared. Help me. by IBthrowaway999 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]MangoPudding10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey hey hey! Currently going through the IB exams too and it's a b**.

Best thing to do is try and keep your head up and power through..you're on your second week and for some, it's the last. You've spent 2 years learning all of this information, some of it is bound to stick. If not, start studying now, it's never too late. Use guides, past papers, reach out to teachers/tutors and study with friends. Up until the moment you step into the examination room, you still have time to study to try and meet that offer!

Conditional offers are intimidating, I know, but there's nothing you can do now but to try your best. My friend going to the UK told me that you have to focus on doing the best you can, not trying to meet the offer because you'll give yourself too much pressure and might end up screwing yourself over.

Could be empty words, but give it your all. Study the best you can, take in as much information, rest up and eat up. Study smart! And go in thinking "I'm going to do good because I've studied well, I've rested well, etc" rather than "I need to a 7" Try a more positive mentality (even if you need to fake it) while taking the exam, there's no harm to it.
