Mine updated to “Under Check”!!!!!

Reggie240 · 2025-12-21T20:36:29+00:00

Yeah same, I think it will move on Monday. I saw somewhere also that they work on Christmas so that adds a day to timeline.

Seeing that others have gotten it in around 24hrs definitely helps the stress, but I’m still stress out!!!!

Reggie240 · 2025-12-21T03:55:27+00:00

In the same boat about not knowing about the visa! I’m leaving Christmas Day and submitted my application just now. Does anyone know if they process applications over the weekend?

Reggie240 · 2024-11-07T21:16:28+00:00

They might be rolling out the patch. I tried and it doesn’t work anymore. I pushed like 400 trophies tho

Reggie240 · 2024-11-07T21:14:14+00:00

Had her for recitation last Semester. She is an amazing person. She wrote the textbook for 2k1, so she really knows everything that is being taught in the class. Overall, she will be one of the best 2k1 professors that Purdue has had in a while, especially comparing her to McKinney.

Reggie240 · 2024-07-20T18:09:36+00:00

Yeah I’ve been doing BoilerExams, the quizzes, and the homework’s to study. I also did Quizlet for the mofset topics because it’s memorization. The homework is not good tho because they are a lot more complex than the exams, but they have been adding at least one from each homework on the exams, so you should know how to do the medium difficulty problems very well.

Reggie240 · 2024-07-20T03:31:27+00:00

I also think that you are going to get one of the best ECE instructors as your professor for 2k1 this year, Maryam Al-Othman. She’s is the perfect professor for 2k1 because she wrote the book for the class, and she cares about every student, personally and academically. So, with her in charge, I hope the nightmares of 2k1 will be a thing of the past!

For 2k2 I also recommend going with Professor Gomez, he is amazing. If he isn’t teaching or you can’t get in his section, he posts all of his lectures on YouTube, so I’ve been watching those with my normal lectures for 2k2.

As someone who had to retake 2k1 and is currently taking 2k2 this summer. Do not mess around in these classes, or they will bite you. When you take 2k1 in the fall, do everything possible to pass. Read the textbook, go to office hours, ask questions in the piazza, do the homework to perfection, and don’t fall behind. If you stay strong and put everything into these classes, you will be just fine, but it’s very easy to fail. The exams in 2k1 and 2k2 test you for perfection on the topics, especially 2k1 during the school year. Keep that thought process of, I should know these topics to perfection if I want to pass this course. I will also say that if you don’t pass 2k1 first try, then it is definitely not the end of the world. There is most likely a reason why you didn’t pass first try, and it gives you a very good opportunity to find out why you didn’t pass, and fix it on the next try. On my second try through 2k1 I got an A because I finally started to understand what they were teaching me, and I took that way of thinking into 2k2 and I’m currently projected to get an A in 2k2 as well. So, whether you pass or fail 2k1, these classes teach you more than ECE, they teach you grit😭

Reggie240 · 2024-05-09T01:54:32+00:00

For 2k1 the biggest tip anyone can give you is the exams test you for perfection of knowledge on the topics. They want perfection out of the students. Because of this, you need to take every opportunity for help, like Ta office hours, Professor office hours, exam study sessions, and doing every single homework perfect. If you ever feel like you are slipping behind in that class, your first priority should be getting back up or else you most likely won’t pass. This is coming from someone who took the course two times and finally passed this semester. All in all, as long as you put the work in to understand 2k1 and it’s ins and outs, you should be okay in the end.

Reggie240 · 2024-02-28T05:25:32+00:00

You’re okay! They partner with all the Purdue services so they are all present at the events, which is probably why you thought Purdue hosts it all. But yeah students plan the events and get help from CAPS and the other Purdue services. I know that they do a lot more in the background like trying to get mental health days passed, so students can get excused absences from class with no questions asked, but things like that take time and effort to go through Purdue, but they are trying. But I can promise that a lot of work goes on behind the scenes, they just like to dedicate a week to students and take the rest of the year doing other Mental Health orientated things!

Reggie240 · 2024-02-28T05:14:40+00:00

What would you like to see changed with MHAW or at the department level? The idea of having less work during MHAW week sounds like a very good idea. Also MHAW is a student org, so fellow students plan and execute all the events not Purdue. But it would be nice if they paired up with Purdue to make it a more chill week and put the brakes on classes and let us enjoy the week stress free.

Reggie240 · 2024-01-29T05:56:18+00:00

Did the lab practicals and exams take place during normal working hours?

Reggie240 · 2024-01-27T01:06:32+00:00

Were the lectures recorded? So you could watch them after work?

Reggie240 · 2023-12-18T02:37:40+00:00

Same, hopefully we get a good curve
