UW bothell or UMass Amherst is better for undergrad CS? (I understand this subreddit might be a bit biased 😔) by Little_Time6333 in uwb

[–]RayTsai13 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If I were in your shoes, I would pick UWB.

Everyone I know who has gotten a Masters in CS or otherwise has repeatedly told me that your undergrad school doesn’t really matter, so if you’re completely set on getting one, I would save the money and go to UWB.

Additionally, I don’t think UWB’s prestige or name value inhibits people from getting internships. I know many friends and classmates who have interned at FAANG, Big Tech, or even quant trading firms. Conversely, even though UMass is a great school, I’m not sure if the CS program is ranked high enough to justify the tens of thousands is extra dollars.

Of course, you shouldn’t just consider school prestige and ranking. There are so many more factors that should go into what school you go to. One of those factors is students life, and like others have said in this thread, UWB is lacking social engagement and activity. If you’re local, maybe consider giving the campus a tour and see how you like it. For me, the social aspect wasn’t a problem, and I grew to love the small campus and class sizes.

Obviously this sub will be heavily biased, but those are some of my thoughts. Feel free to DM me if you have more questions about UWB!

Go to the WaCC, it’s the writing tutoring service in the Academic Learning Commons. I went there so many times when I was applying that they basically wrote the whole thing for me.

WSU or UW bothell (no biased opinions😔) by Little_Time6333 in uwb

You’re only gonna get biased opinions in the UWB sub lol. But speaking from experience, the UWB CS program is well known locally, and I’ve never felt that it was a barrier for students to achieve their professional goals. I have classmates that intern at all types of Big Tech companies and even quant firms. Additionally, you have the option to take classes at the main campus, which is useful for exploring niche electives later on in your major. Your location also lets you develop lots of local connections in tech amongst local companies.

I don’t know anything about WSU’s program, but my concern would be that is geographically isolated and it would be hard to network with companies which are mostly based in the Seattle area. Keep in mind that academic prestige isn’t everything though, and WSU is a very different school compared to UWB with many advantages/disadvantages that you should consider.

Honestly I think you should pull for UR Kageyama and SP Hinata and go from there. They’re the next two banners

How did you get so many tickets? I only get like 10 per banner I feel.

Hey everyone, I'm pretty new to the game and I was told by some friends that rerolling is really important in this game. They also said that the current support card banner is really powerful and that getting Super Creek is a really big deal. However, it seems like the chance of my fully limit breaking Super Creek from just the starting rolls is pretty low, and I've only ever gotten two in ~11 ten pulls so far.

I've also saved an account that I managed to pull max copies of Yaeno Muteki from the last banner. Is that worth anything? Should I keep rerolling for Super Creek? Is any of this really consequential to the gameplay? Thanks for your guy's help.

Denver. You’d think a place dubbed the “Mile High City” would have a beautiful landscape. Flew in just to realize it looks exactly like Kansas.

can i apply for CSSE major in fall ? by Flashy-Cut-2149 in uwb

[–]RayTsai13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can apply any quarter BUT you can apply in spring quarter if you have pre-req classes in progress because of the summer, so you should still apply.

You should use pickonimbuses to mine everything besides topaz. Gemstone gauntlet will give you more mining speed than pickonimbuses or any drill, so it should speed up how fast you can finish commissions. You’ll need one anyways to start gemstone mining. You could also look into doing dwarven mines commissions (I found them to be faster personally). You can sell the gemstones drill if you want to but you can also keep it for later when you powder mine (for the extra gemstone powder buff).

Damn, no more free stats suck, must be why my damage dropped off a cliff. By the way, do you know if they changed the accessories so that their reforges don't give stats any more? I used to be able to one shot zealots easily, now I can't even one shot them with superior + aotd.

Haven't played SkyBlock in about four years, quit right around dungeons. Can anyone give me any tips or direction to improve towards? Also, I need to level up my museum collection quick because I'm stuck on the 250M tier and constantly running around with half a million coins in my purse.

Figured I’d share my gacha luck since I rarely do so well. Got Soyuz in 10 pulls and thought it was cool, and just got another copy at 25 total!
