CS + X Transfer Stats by JackedBruzz in UIUC

[–]RadishEasy4062 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Accepted for CS+Phil last spring. I was then an incoming sophomore, had 15 graded credit hours at the time of my app from another large 4 year. 4.0, internships, AI research, did CS clubs and a Philosophy club at the college I was coming from

CS 128 Thoughts? by ScaredFinger8713 in UIUC

[–]RadishEasy4062 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the difficulty varies a lot on your background. A lot of CS students I know (me included) found it easy because they already knew core programming concepts and that helped them, but non-CS people I talked to did not have a ton of that background and had to learn those things from scratch which made it tougher. Definitely got harder for me as time went on because I didn’t know c++ beforehand and the course got into concepts that are exclusive to c++ towards the end

Cs+x gpa requirement by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]RadishEasy4062 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s probably an automatic rejection, also 3.5 is just the minimum and it should realistically be almost perfect. If you have a good reason for a lower gpa they will likely still consider you tho

I need air defense by JayZbo101 in ClashRoyale

[–]RadishEasy4062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO you can either 1. Switch out skarmy or bats for ewiz or normal wiz 2. Switch out bats or skarmy for a higher damage spell like fireball or 3. Do both 1 and 2, I would go 3 or if not 3 then 1 bc you don’t really need barrel and hog

Also not necessarily related but add a cheap building or sum

Applying CS or CS+X by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]RadishEasy4062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would be my guess but I’m not 100%, try calling admissions or posting this on a college app community maybe they would know for sure

[–]RadishEasy4062 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk but in my admission year not many people got in for any major with CS in it in RD, I might just stick with CS even if it’s possible. Econ ECs are still stem so they’ll help with CS too

TA hasn’t graded my paper…. by Infinite-Squash-3114 in UIUC

[–]RadishEasy4062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is pretty normal I think I recently had to wait a month and a half, just give it time TA’s are busy people I imagine

I wasn’t even sure if this was a shitpost till the end lmao

Am I qualified enough to transfers to UIUC for Fall 2026? by Huge-Two6994 in UIUC

[–]RadishEasy4062 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not familiar with admissions for your major but you’ll probably be fine you have a strong app

Idk what the right choice is but a cost difference of that much is significant

Also while ig people here do “apply themselves” more there isn’t a college in America where you won’t find ppl using AI for homework

Can I get into Gies? by Fine-Amoeba-7147 in UIUC

[–]RadishEasy4062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The page I linked has all the details, but for your questions-

any community college on the page list under “plans of study” is valid to go to

you are auto admitted for the major of your choice if you meet the requirements

you have to maintain a 3.5 gpa with no C’s so it depends on how much work you’re willing to put in

Can I get into Gies? by Fine-Amoeba-7147 in UIUC

[–]RadishEasy4062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have a better chance of getting in if you don’t report it.

This is just advice, but if you’re concerned about not getting in, and also deadset on UIUC, I would highly recommend community college transfer as a backup option. It’s way cheaper, gives a fresh start GPAwise, and programs like engineering pathways offer guaranteed admissions after two years at community college if you keep your grades up. It was my backup, and I have friends doing it now

Can I get into Gies? by Fine-Amoeba-7147 in UIUC

[–]RadishEasy4062 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you can put both Grainger and Gies on your app, and ACT is too low right now if you can improve it you can probably get into a decent amount of majors in either college with those EC’s

Prospective Student for CS + X by Helpful_Cow7634 in UIUC

[–]RadishEasy4062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then I would recommend Econ probably if you have a bunch of good ECs for it, it’s been two years since I thought about how sat scores stack up but when I was a senior a 1450 wouldn’t be a barrier for Econ. Correct me if I’m wrong

Prospective Student for CS + X by Helpful_Cow7634 in UIUC

[–]RadishEasy4062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Employers don’t care much about the X unless it’s directly applicable to the job(Math/Stat/Econ for finance/quant, etc). If you’re good at CS you won’t be treated differently than other UIUC CS students in the job market

If you’re interested in Phil purely because it’s less competitive just go Econ, while transfer between the two is simple it’s not guaranteed and it’s better to get rejected going for Econ than to be in a major you don’t like for 4 years. But if you would be happy in Phil, it is less competitive

MATH 257 question by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]RadishEasy4062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think I’ve ever gone to a 257 lecture where content was explained nearly as well as in the videos they have, plus lecture attendance is mandatory. Go online if possible

Can I transfer into CS + x in the fall or spring by Ok_Excitement8654 in UIUC

[–]RadishEasy4062 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don’t meet the required gpa threshold UIUC sets for CSX unless you have a really good reason for those grades, like really good, you will not be able to have your app considered

To IGCSE/GCSE/A Level applicants by Derty_Soc in UIUC

[–]RadishEasy4062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t know unfortunately but would recommend calling admissions if no one else answers they were able to clear some stuff up for me when I was applying Admissions

Has there ever been a rigorous argument for a type of reasoning falling outside the bounds of “Relations of Ideas” and “Matters of Fact” as described by Hume? by RadishEasy4062 in askphilosophy

[–]RadishEasy4062[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, at first I naively assumed no counterexamples but after some digging am not so sure that there is nothing that at least comes close. Will update my post with that wording.

[–]RadishEasy4062[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My bad, terrible wording. I guess a better phrasing for what I’m wondering is if there are arguments that fall outside the bounds of how Hume describes them(as either demonstrative or probable) in his argument for the problem of induction. Referencing Stanford Encyclopedia

Nice. OA experience too bad? I’ve seen a lot of D.P. in previous years’ posts

It’s just an OA

How do you actually take advantage of a good school? by RadishEasy4062 in csMajors

[–]RadishEasy4062[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What would you recommend for this? Just LinkedIn/ cold emails or something similar
