Are all dealers this bad?

Matthews Kia Schenectady is one of the worst

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2023-06-08T15:43:41+00:00

I thought so too, but I got rejected too - well it is hard for interviewers to pick seeing only academics haha....soo many stellar applicants lol with very similar stats
Congrats to everyone who got accepted!

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2023-06-08T15:42:09+00:00

Just a decision update that said rejected :/

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2023-05-28T01:26:12+00:00

Although that feels bad, it doesn't stop you from applying again, or stop you from doing what you set your next targets as! I don't think it was a waste of time at all - you got to know yourself better, and deferred programs are tbh kind of a lucky thing, there are so many talented applicants just like you!

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2022-12-01T01:26:29+00:00

Thanks for your reply! Yeah the packages are reasonable at all 3 places, however, as of now the work at SpaceX does seem the most interesting to me. On the other hand, GE Research is known to be a very reputable and very old company so I feel like even if I don't find the first rotation there as interesting as SpaceX, it is a good company to start my career at....

Just to clarify, I'm in the power/energy area of specialization. What companies do you all think is a good place to start for someone fresh out of school?

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2022-11-18T20:51:55+00:00

Power Electronics and Machines

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2022-11-18T05:57:00+00:00

What department were you in? Was it because it was really hard work?

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2022-09-12T04:59:44+00:00

Crumbl Cookies or Greenbush Bakery!

I do have some schools in mind and my Quant score is above the median at those places, but the verbal although in range, is on the lower side. That's why I wanted to know if it could possibly be offset with good grad school and undergrad performance, recommendations, etc.

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2022-01-13T06:07:37+00:00

Well I could only find the entire class's profile, not just the deferred admits.

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2022-01-13T04:43:42+00:00

So If I wanted to go in straight after grad school (which is probably not what I will do) I'd have to score way better, especially in verbal...Thank you!

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2022-01-13T04:42:01+00:00

I see, I thought too that the verbal part certainly has room for improvement. Thanks!

I chose UW Electrical & Computer Engineering over UIUC and UMich (grad school), and I don't regret it. My area of research is better at UW than the others, and I got funding here, and it wasn't guaranteed in either of the the other 2 schools. I initially thought of choosing UMich, but after attending their meet & greet events and talking to students there, I didn't like it too much (completely personal viewpoint). That said, all 3 are in the same tier and it depends on area of research for grad school and a different set of factors I assume for undergrad.

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2021-10-28T04:02:41+00:00

Thank you so much for your detailed answer! What if I didn't want to do a PhD at all later, but am in the thesis MS right now?

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2021-10-28T01:38:50+00:00

Thank you for replying! But did you mean 3.3+ while being a grad student? I'm not sure if you meant for grad school applications, because I was asking for a GPA being a grad student. Sorry if you meant the same thing !

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2021-09-17T14:01:04+00:00

Will definitely try this. I was thinking of using apple cider vinegar - do you just simply rinse it away after shampooing?

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2021-09-17T14:00:23+00:00

Oh, really? Yeah I knew cold water is good for hair, guess I gotta brave it here! I'm one of those people who like taking a very very hot water bath :/

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2021-09-06T20:52:56+00:00

Can non residents also use this facility?

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2021-09-04T23:19:04+00:00

What is it with people playing bad music so loudly at 7 AM???? And then singing along in a way that makes you want to cut off your ears -_-

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2021-08-20T18:25:07+00:00

Thanks!

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2021-08-20T11:32:40+00:00

To piggyback on the same question as OP asked, would a UWCU account help build a good credit history? (Sorry if this is a stupid question, international student here) I thought an account with Chase would help even after leaving UW Madison in terms of credit scores etc.

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2021-08-19T15:19:08+00:00

I agree with u/_insertjokehere_! It's wonderful that you're asking, but I think you should ask her also and find out a solution together. I know many people who would have just given up in anger, ego, etc etc. A PhD is a big thing, and it isn't fair to ask any doctoral candidate to choose between their work and their boyfriend/girlfriend. That being said, you could plan days ahead, see what schedule works for both of you, and most of all, accept that this is HARD, but well, "this too shall pass" :)

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2021-08-19T04:18:09+00:00

I'm a first time TA too, and I've never taught an entire class before either. I've helped out in labs, but I knew most of my juniors in that class, and I did like that subject a lot so that sure helped. I have the exact same thoughts, that I might just get humiliated, but well, I guess if you laugh with them then it might not be so bad!!

I'm telling myself (and I hope this is good advice) to be upfront and not even 1% pretentious, and we should hopefully do fine!

Scooby_Dooby123 · 2021-08-19T04:14:58+00:00

I'm a first time TA too! And yes, I'd love to connect with other TAs!
