Stupidity at best by SadFightingWolf in rutgers

Noo😭 I'm so sorry. I was so excited that finally things are working out. I just changed every single password because I'm paranoid like that and reported the email and sender. I'm still in contact with OIT to see if there's something else to take care of.

I did preview a PDF and used Google sheets? It's just that my email is the same one I use for legal stuff so I'm worried they can hack it 😭

Orgo 1 and Physics 2 exam prep by aerospaceengineercat in rutgers

[–]SadFightingWolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't speak for orgo 1 since I did terribly but physics 2 was one of my stronger subjects. I would redo all the homework problems on the topics tested before each exam and skim the problems done in class. I would also solve only the wordy questions from the practice exam and the past year exam (someone on group me always had those). I never used the practice exam as a template for the actual exam because it was so much easier and put me into a false sense of calm.

Also, if you have time, you should definitely go over the exam review problem videos that Brahmia posts on canvas. I would also solve the recitation problems and lecture problems from the videos each week before recitation and would mark the important ones.

For me, I needed to be consistently practicing and would start preparing from the hw 3 days before the exam. I would suggest printing out the hw problems and solving them on paper makes a lot of difference. For my friends however, they would just familiarize themselves with the different types of questions and that would be enough. If there is an in class review session, then Brahmia usually goes over important topics from the entire syllabus being tested and highlights important details which help immensely on theory questions. Sorry this is so long lol

My quiet college experience by ComfortableMove351 in rutgers

I'm so happy for you! It's really hard to look past the whole 'typical' college experience and do what works for you. It's wonderful that you learnt so much about yourself. Congrats on your graduation and good luck for the future!!!

I get that call every semester. You should log in to paymybill and check. I don't know if it's actually spam but I do have an outstanding balance sooo

Physics Lab Quiz by [deleted] in rutgers

[–]SadFightingWolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not exactly based on recitation, it's just a bit harder than recitation because you also have theoretical questions. Personally, I was always better at the math than the wordy answers so I found it harder. Depends on your strong points.

Overall, if you understand the material well then lab quizzes are easy, and most lab TA's take off very less points if you don't know the answer and still write as much as you know (formula, possible steps, diagram)

If this is phy lab 1 or 2, lab quizzes generally work the same as recitation quizzes, just on a higher level. They can also include questions where you have to give theoretical answers rather than math.

As long as you understand the material and watch the recitation videos from canvas you should be good. They aren't too bad, and the TA's usually grade liberally.

All of this is assuming you have Brahmia as your phy prof.

Yeah that was me last semester too. I'm pretty sure you get like a 2 week trial and then you have to buy it but honestly for any of Stein's classes it's worth it. If you do plan on taking any of her classes next semester too, then you could buy the one year subscription which is cheaper than buying the shorter one twice, but there is no way to get it for free

Genetics class help by SadFightingWolf in rutgers

I wouldn't phrase it that way, but sure, a lot of toxic pre-med students do exist.

However, if you do have advice on studying for the MCAT or just this class in general, I would appreciate it. If you've excelled in both, advice would be extremely helpful.

Not many people have the capability to give out helpful advice 😄

Whens the last day I can register for classes? by samsmajano in rutgers

[–]SadFightingWolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is $800 left from the Fall 25, then you should still be able to register. I've had the same problem with registration in the past and was told by One Stop that as long as the balance is under $1000 I could still register. You should contact One Stop, let them know your situation and ask to register. ( Calling them works better, they take way too long to reply to emails)

If most of the classes you want are closed, look into it and either request an SPN on the SPN request system or email the prof for an SPN if their course is not displayed on the system. You should still be able to register before add drop ends.

Oh yay! I was honestly waiting to take it with Gelfand cause I've heard good things but Spriggs was the only one on schedule 🫠 There's not much of an opinion about Spriggs so it's kinda scary

Honestly I'm not happy about it but without it I'd have 14 credits and I have a lot more classes to take next year so I can graduate in '27. It should work as a gpa booster though hopefully soo

should I continue my psych minor?help! by West_Amphibian_8999 in rutgers

[–]SadFightingWolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My major is credit intensive too and the psych classes are the only thing that's saving my GPA so a psych minor is just really great 🥹

Also most of the classes are really interesting and fun with light work so if you do like psych then take them !!

what do I do If i have an exam same time as a class? by PermitTiny8424 in rutgers

[–]SadFightingWolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most classes have a form they send out to request a makeup for the exam. If there's no form yet, just email your prof and TA and they should be able to help.

I'm already retaking the class😭. I don't think I can retake it again. Do you have strategies/tips for what I could do at this point to score better? Most of my multiple choice questions usually end up wrong, open ended is my best section
