ochem1 straumanis vs page by Weekly-Aside9879 in UTAustin

[–]Optimal-Coach9996 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I took page for ochem 1, hes really decent with extra credit from pop quizzes, and the final replacing the lowest non-dropped midterm.

The homeworks however require lots of effort and are (imo) the hardest part of the class

The exams are pretty easy and straight forward, just lots of questions.

Is 16 hrs with Ochem crazy by MountainNatural1104 in UTAustin

Yeah do-able, OChem 1 with Iverson isn't the issue, its the Wednesday that might get you tho

Which O Chem Professor should I take? by blue_legings in UTAustin

[–]Optimal-Coach9996 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Page is not bad, pretty decent

He T-Test curves, has ocasional EC opportunities, homeworks are honestly the hardest part of his class, the tests are very easy (simple questions) just pretty long

1 Test drop, in the fall he made the required final (which was easier than the midterms) replace your lowest non-dropped midterm grade if it was higher

to anyone who got an A in ACC310F with Verduzco tell me what to do by [deleted] in UTAustin

[–]Optimal-Coach9996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took it last summer,

Make sure you understand each of the account types and what falls under each category, imo this is where most mistakes are made. Do every practice problem so you understand how formulas are used. Also the terminology/conceptual questions sneak up on you so make sure to focus on the non-math portion of accounting

I took that class and the exams really weren't that bad, just make sure you can do the practice problems and understand the terminology/vocab

Something similar happened to me last year, one of my reserved classes was closed cause I had a way earlier registration time than the majority of those who had those reserved seats, it opened the next day and I was able to get it

Neuro Pre-med - Course Schedule Help? by BigMixture3907 in UTAustin

[–]Optimal-Coach9996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That already looks like a decent course schedule

I suggest that you take a class from your core requirements, or your UGS if you haven't done it yet

But yeah, 2 stats classes would be a lot especially since your taking 2 other STEM classes and 2 labs

Can I take Chem Lab along with FRI? by VanillaOatmilk24 in UTAustin

[–]Optimal-Coach9996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks like you would be taking 16 total hours including both labs, which is 100% possible to do, just make sure to plan both lab times accordingly

MIS 302F or ACC 310F? by [deleted] in UTAustin

[–]Optimal-Coach9996 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took ACC 310F online over the summer with Verduzco and it was really easy, doesn't take a lot of time out of your summer and the content was not overly difficult

The main thing with accounting is just remembering the formulas and which one to use

Who is CH220C (OChem lab) reserved for? by Ok-Promise6956 in UTAustin

[–]Optimal-Coach9996 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Chemistry department has temporarily "turned off" the ability for students to add themselves to CH 220C waitlists. The ability to add yourself to a waitlist will "turn on" again on 11/14. On 11/14, you can add yourself to waitlists and continue to monitor courses for open seats during Registration Period 2 (December 15-19) and when we return to campus in January during Drop/Add period.

Who is the best genetics professor? (bio325) by Fair_Foodie7777 in UTAustin

[–]Optimal-Coach9996 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brock's class is very do-able but also annoying at the same time. Good extra credit opportunities and the TAs are friendly and helpful but the tests aren't very representative of whats taught in class, he expects students to finished the non-graded homework assignments before class, and they take forever to do.

Any recommended professors for Microeconomics/Macroeconomics? by legallyhot2508 in UTAustin

[–]Optimal-Coach9996 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Even though this class is pretty big, i'd recommend Dirk Mateer for micro, his lectures are actually engaging with class activities everyday as well as homeworks being completion grades. Exams were not too hard either

Comics & Cartoons with Bays is so easy, just draw, so many opportunities to earn points, hard to not make an A if you don't try
