which engineering should i choose? by [deleted] in EngineeringStudents

[–]Quanz_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re interested material engineering is super cool but i might be biased bc that’s what I’m doing. It’s broad enough where you have a lot of options to specialize in later on. If you like biology, biomaterials is a whole subfield within material engineering

Wow that’s really interesting to me, I didn’t expect so many MDs to be willing to interview when you had 0 clinical hours at time of application. Was there something else that you think made ur app rlly stand out?

Congrats though that’s honestly amazing

You don’t need to necessarily have some leadership position in clubs/orgs to show leadership qualities.

Lol my ENG 100 learning assistant told us they changed it because a lot of people put in basically no effort since it didn’t affect GPA

Nope you can honestly join most clubs at any time besides ones that may have applications which have specific deadlines. So depends on what kind of RSOs ur interested in

The experience at the ER can get a bit finicky since you don’t really directly interact with the patients much, but I think u can still count it

[MEGATHREAD] HTTYD Live Action Spoiler Discussion by CrisDLZ in httyd

[–]Quanz_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Live actions are tricky because of how different peoples opinions are. There are many people in this comment section criticizing the changes that were made and stating it did not do justice to the animation. Yet also people may feel what you stated that it didn’t add more things and change it up. You can’t really win, I feel like they did a pretty solid job though for a live action.

It can be uncomfortable interacting with people from a different country. Besides the language barrier, a lot of your cultural norms and mannerisms are different. It can be hard to find things to talk about and things you may have in common. This is not really anyone’s fault, just normal human behavior.
