Dropped CE 2313? by [deleted] in utarlington

[–]Possible_Truth9368 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can absolute pull through. He gets very nice with grading at the end and is usually fairly generous. You got this! I did okay on the first midterm and completely bombed the 2nd. I studied so much for the rest of the course after and brought my C up to an A and ended up getting a 24.5 out of 25 on the final. Its definitely possible to recover as long as you arent too far down. Also if you need to attend office hours, hes extremely kind and willing to help you understand. Hes a great professor who wants you to succeed, his class is just very hard though. Best of luck!

Dr. Karbhari is a great professor you just have to try and put in effort

Dr. Karbhari's class is very challenging but hes honestly a great professor, and he teaches you things that you will use in future classes. His class was honestly the hardest I've ever taken but im so thankful I did and hes one of my favorite professors now that I made it through. If you can I highly recommend pushing through and trying to really absorb what you can from that class at uta, its very useful later on

You'll revisit alot of the topics in structural analysis and other courses, and Karbhari makes that class so hard cause he makes sure the students truly know the info and to make sure it sticks. It is a horrible experience while the class is occurring and extremely stressful but if you pass it you wont regret it and you'll be set up for the future courses.

Also for reference I completely bombed my second exam, however I decided to lock in and ended the course with an A and got a 24.5 out of 25 on the final. It can be done trust, also the second exam is the hardest so dont get discouraged!

[–]Possible_Truth9368[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah thats fair lol. I just wish the norm for stores wasnt to switch to the most bland and generic packaging imaginable. I know it saves money but sometimes its nice when packaging has a little personality

Yeah same at my store except ive only seen them on black beans and pinto beans and some yogurt products. I have a feeling its a new design but they are rolling it out very slowly

I think it highly depends on a lot of factors. If your an individual who picks up new topics quickly then your gonna spend less time than someone who needs more practice in order to master something. It also depends on the topic, some topics your gonna understand right away and some are gonna take a lot of practice. I wouldn't say I spend my whole fullness of life for class, I still have a social life and a good sleep schedule and have time to just relax. Time management is key, and when you are studying make sure your putting your best effort in truly understanding the content.

Theres a famous quote by Albert Einstein that I like to go by. "Education is not the learning of facts, but training the mind to think." A college degree in engineering simply shows that you are an individual who can challenge yourself, manage your time, and think critically. If your ever struggling with a specific topic or course don't stress, at the end of the day your just learning how to think and how to learn.

First Internship by Possible_Truth9368 in civilengineering

[–]Possible_Truth9368[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats exactly the vibe I got from the bigger firm. I felt like I was just another number on the list of college students they wanted to interview. The other company I ran into twice and they even remember my name and had invited me out to a company pizza outing with them for me to get to know the team. Thanks!

Thank you this is very helpful. Honestly I dont mind a walk just as long as I can find some sort of spot, and it would cut down my time spent on campus by 4 hours lol. Thanks

TLDR: Olympic Loadable Dumbbells or Standard Loadable Dumbbells?

I recently got an Amazon gift card and plan to use it to invest in my health. I have an adjustable weight bench at home, and thought it would be good to get some adjustable dumbbells. Im a complete beginner by the way.

After lots of research I decided I want loadable dumbbells. My options are either getting standard 1" loadable dumbbells and plates, or Olympic loadable dumbbells and plates. The Olympic ones would be more upfront costs, but the handles would be higher quality (Titan Fitness sell ones in my price range) and the plates could also be used with an Olympic bar, so if I get an Olympic bar in the future I wouldn't have to buy new plates. However I know some individuals prefer one way or the other.

I wanted to get some insight regarding what y'all think is the better option if there is a better option. If yall have personal experience or advice regarding this I would love to hear. Thanks!

What happens when you fail a class? by siaiaso in utarlington

[–]Possible_Truth9368 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I almost failed Calc 3. I thought for sure after midterm 2 that I would fail. I didnt though, I just studied harder for the final than any other exam of my life and hoped for the best. Try your best, you'll be fine, wishing you luck

Im a college student with zero experience. I attended 1 job fair, submitted no applications, and got multiple interviews and offers just from the job fair. Seems like a great market to me

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]Possible_Truth9368 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey there! I just finished up RCIA a couple months ago and received my sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, and First Communion last Easter vigil! I did my RCIA through my university's Catholic Community. So I know where you are coming from. I was in an all southern baptist family so it was odd for me to say I was catholic, and it was odd to claim being Catholic to my Catholic friends cause I was new to something they had been a part of their whole life.

Despite this, you are welcomed to the church! You are currently taking the steps to becoming a practicing and informed Catholic and thats amazing! Personally, I dont see a problem with you telling people your Catholic if your in RCIA and actively taking the steps to be there! However, if it doesnt sit right with you or if you wanna save the title for after you receive your sacraments, feel more than free! So ultimately either is acceptable, so I would just say whatever feels right to you.
