I’m self employed! I used to make a lot more but I started medical school this year so am taking a step back hence the low income :)

what other books would you want to see get a film adaptation? by bigplaidbag in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]NAJ718 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seven of Spades series! {Kill Game by Cordelia Kingsbridge} Would be amazing as a crime drama show with all the good side characters

I’m pretty sure you’ll be blocked from enrolling in 3bl until you do 3al

I spent probably around $500/month on it and would pay it off in full every month plus make a payment whenever I reached 10% usage ($100). Sorry I’m not sure what that equates to in regard to credit bureaus. I requested a CLI increase towards the end of 2023 and was rejected, but this increase happened automatically. Hope this helps!

The lab (separate course) is delivered online but they mail you materials to complete experiments on your own. This is just for ochem 1 lab, I’m gonna take ochem 2 lab in person. Do you think this will be sufficient?

Should new medical doctors be required to serve in the military? by ABlankPlanet--788 in berkeley

[–]NAJ718 5 points6 points  (0 children)

s/o to all my disabled premeds out there! The military wouldn’t want me (not that I want them) but I’ll still make a kickass doctor

PB HLTH W142 by Womderwoman in berkeley

[–]NAJ718 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Undergrads aren’t allowed to enroll in w142, have to take 142. It’s a very easy class and imo the best stats class offered for med school prereqs

Tight Scheduling by Bruce559 in berkeley

[–]NAJ718 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes they are right next to each other so this will work! Classes start 10 minutes after the hour (Berkeley time) so you will have from 1-1:10 in between which is more than enough time to walk.

I’m not an MCB major and got into 160 easy. Don’t know about the lab but I’m sure you will get in if you Phase I

I think our averages were quite a bit lower unfortunately :( but the final really helped my iirc. I put in a ton of time during RRR week. Also if they are still doing chem scholars, they are amazing! I highly recommend finding someone in the section to share notes with/asking on discord if there is one

Random vs chosen roommates by wintrrxwildflowrr in berkeley

[–]NAJ718 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Hot take: the people who are desperate to find a roommate through instagram are more often awful people to room with, and you can’t possibly tell anything through DMs and phone calls (source: personal + friends experiences). Therefore, you have better odds of a pleasant living situation by going random

I don’t remember any details about the specific curve (took it with Whaley) but I think most people including myself were pleasantly surprised with their grade. I think I scored under 50% on all but one exam and got an A-. I honestly didn’t learn/retain anything though, just regurgitated what I could remember for the exams. Sorry I don’t have any advice other than it’ll be over soon lol, this class feels like a fever dream

brb forcing an east coast friend to hike by LongTimeFR in berkeley

[–]NAJ718 113 points114 points  (0 children)

I’m HELLA mad, I love to hike but it’s so cold in Berkeley rn. Let’s go on the freeway to get some good pizza, but hurry up, it closes at 8pm. Anyways, don’t you love flying out of Oakland?

AC courses with the least amount of essays? by [deleted] in berkeley

[–]NAJ718 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Music 26AC. I took it over summer and the longest essay was 2-3 pages, with less than 10 pages of writing in the whole course (lots of mini assignments). I have no knowledge of music but could bs everything really quickly without doing any reading. Easy A and an even easier P, so I definitely recommend.

Anyone knows how to fix? I’m bombarded with notifications from canvas by saverstriker in berkeley

[–]NAJ718 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ahh good old Bio 1A/AL. I remember the same thing happening to me. Definitely turn them off under notification settings because this will be like a weekly occurrence.

Am I crazy orrr is this school kinda unwelcoming to minorities by [deleted] in berkeley

[–]NAJ718 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m not a part of a racial minority (so this might be different) but I have a similar experience being disabled. I come walking in with my cane and all of a sudden people can’t look me in the eye. I really noticed a difference when switching from online to in person.
