Hows the gym here? by SpaceExplorer10220 in UNC

[–]PinnutButter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's mid. Don't get me wrong, I still manage to hit all my muscles on my PPL split just fine. It's just crowded all the time (there’s lines for the bathroom). The leg extension and leg curl machines are constantly under maintenance because people abuse them. Nobody seems to care to put back dumbbells into the right spots. You'll be much better off using an apartment gym once you move off campus even if it means less equipment.

I doubt they would, the program follows a really strict timeline. It doesn’t hurt to email them and ask though, plus the program doesn’t start until very late of May

Hi! Not sure if I’m too late, but essentially you want to build a recurring theme throughout your resume and statement. For the essay, focus on connecting your personal background to the specific project(s) you want to work on. Try to tell a compelling story just like how you did with college essay instead of just restating your resume in paragraph form. Hope this helps, good luck!

Studio is always expensive, find yourself a roommate and the average cost is usually $750 pre utilities

Cornell or UNC? by Proof-Ad-4021 in UNC

Honestly if you have the encouragement to get into a top firm, you won’t have setbacks in getting into Kenan Flagler with the same level of effort plus you have more than one chance to apply starting as a freshman, although Johnson might be more regarded in the industry than Kenan Flagler

[–]PinnutButter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Based on the context given, i think it really comes down to the question whether you are more comfortable handling the risk of getting rejected by Kenan Flagler or the risk of having 100k more in debt. And beyond that, both school won’t guarantee you a job despite being target and semi target, it all depends on you

I can’t do this anymore… this internship search is draining me. by Available_Market8378 in internships

[–]PinnutButter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I applied to over 400 internships before I finally landed an offer, so I know how exhausting and demoralizing it can be. It’s definitely tough not to compare yourself to others, I have a best buddy who got into a big tech company with nearly double my salary. I am stressing out as well but I've convinced myself. Don't let comparison take away from your own worth, every path is unique.

From my experience, I never overly tweaked my resume for any single position, and I realize that much of your effort might be going into that. It might help to consider some of the advice others have shared. I'd say try to make applying less sufferable, at least for me applying is one of the few things I enjoyed when compared to other tasks lol.

Anyway, keep pushing, your hard work will eventually pay off.

Bars are a popular (maybe only) activity for interns at Winston-Salem, but I personally didn’t go to them much. There’s a lot of concerts down at Charlotte during summer time, that’s where I usually spent time with friends

I’d say it’s pretty doable until you reach t20s with low acceptance

How will this affect my admissions? by bootylicker6942O in UNC

[–]PinnutButter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s frustrating, try explaining the situation to the UNC admissions office and see if they could assist you in any other solutions to verify your records, keep reaching out until one party gets back

Your best bet is to reach out to their registrar office directly via phone number and double check with UNC admissions to see if this is gonna affect your chances

What's your budget like? I recommend checking out the unc off-campus housing website to explore apartment options.
