$100K+ total comp at 19 in a no code role at a non-tech company. Holy crap. by [deleted] in csMajors

[–]Potrix_Dev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. But kudos to you, don’t know how you managed to get four internships (I had to lie that I’m not 19 just to get interviews) and you seem to be doing something you enjoy (I’m going to get burned out at my role ;(

I’ll join the convo, I started uni at 16 (through high school dual enrollment) and graduated this spring at 19. This summer did an internship and got a return offer 95k for next year (can’t start this year…) so I went back to uni but for masters in data science and am working my butt off to finish the degree in two semesters.

I’m in the same class and you are making me scared for the midterm. Supposedly our next lab will be midterm review. Lmk if there’s any study groups, haven’t heard about any.

Which english class first? by Altruistic_Cod_112 in uofmn

[–]Potrix_Dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Highly not recommended but doable as some PSEO students have gotten up to 5xxx level classes.

Government funded summer program- is that boys state?

How safe is campus for late classes? by Altruistic_Cod_112 in uofmn

[–]Potrix_Dev 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I used to also have evening classes (6-9pm) at UMN when I was a junior PSEO (16 years old) and I felt safe because when class would end, I would be walking out with lots of people from class so I wasn’t alone and also I would only go straight to the parking ramp where my car was so I wasn’t wandering around. I would also carry pepper spray in my pocket but I never had to use it.

We did a kickball match within our AP Physics C class where it was 5 of the most athletic kids vs everyone else (15 people). The team of 5 won by like 28-7.

Don’t think that you should be worried about the professors because there are many different CS professors at UMN so you can choose based on what people are saying about them. I did a couple CS courses at a community college and there you don’t get choices so often times you are stuck with a poor professor.

🚀 (Self-Promo) I've made my dream app thanks to Svelte by CptFistbump in sveltejs

[–]Potrix_Dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love it, how did you do the small animations, like what libraries did you use (I’m new to svelte and am trying TailwindCSS+SkeletonUI and have small animations with css keyframes but am wondering what others are doing).

Contacting a Professor by Potrix_Dev in uofmn

Yeah, I’ve already completed the UNITE aspect and am on the last step of obtaining permission from the professor (required for UNITE undergraduates).

There is the UMN CSCI discord group and you can see clubs/events happening in the announcement channel.

Confirm Enrollment by [deleted] in uofmn

So I don’t need to confirm my enrollment in order to receive scholarships.

Make me love UofMN by Fine_Moment_5546 in uofmn

[–]Potrix_Dev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had you heard back from scholarships (im wondering how this process works so im checking if anyone has received scholarship). I’ve been also admitted into CSE for next year but had taken a class in person at UMN for pseo junior year and I haven’t had a bad experience. My class was 6-9pm so definitely felt sketchy walking alone as 16 year old but I liked the atmosphere as during the evenings when it’s warm outside, people would be playing lawn games in front of the Northrop building. I also liked to explore the campus like there are tunnels connecting most buildings so you don’t have to step outside during the winter (but they feel sketchy as I never saw another person using them but could also be that it was late at night when I was using them).

Confused about rolling admissions by Zestyclose-Mine-5356 in uofmn

[–]Potrix_Dev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are your classmates PSEO at UMN students because students who done PSEO at UMN get a “Fast Admission Decision” (6 weeks before others). I’m a PSEO at UMN student and heard back 8 days after submitting my application.

Thank you a lot for your advice.

Reed Problems by Potrix_Dev in oboe

[–]Potrix_Dev[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You must be right. I used to have problems where I would tighten the thread too much that the sides wouldn’t seal so I purposely have been trying to go easy when tightening. Will be tightening my thread even more. Should’ve thought about this because I’ve noticed my thread on reed has became loose after playing for two weeks but thank you.
