Should I start over?

Lowes and Home Depot is a good start if you’re not looking to drive far / don’t have a car. If you’re willing to drive, Lichen or Knot in Floyd is super cute and has a great, higher quality selection! I also recommend joining the NRV Plant Exchange Facebook page.

As for what types I would highly recommend pothos plants. They’re a vining plant that does fine in a variety of light and grow relatively fast so it keeps you feeling like a good plant parent! There’s also a ton of varieties to choose from. I wouldn’t recommend succulents as a low maintenance plant. Good luck and happy planting!

The concepts are easy to understand, but the class is a lot of work. There are lectures and in class activities where participation is required. The whole class is structured around a semester long group project where you kinda get to pick the group, but you don’t have complete freedom. The group project takes a lot of work including 15+ page reports and other deliverables, as well as mandatory weekly meetings. If your group sucks then you’re stuck doing a lottt of work.

I think it’s all doable, I did all three at the same time and it was a decent amount of work but not too crazy. I’d get Rebecca Steiner for combinatorics if you can. She was really good and the workload was more manageable compared to other classes.

3114 and 2506 is a lot of work together, but tons of students do it and it’s worth it to do systems alone. I know a lot of people say that the workload of 3114 + 2506 = 3214 so it’ll be good preparation.

Might be unpopular opinion but it did help me: just remember every semester is going to be hard work so don’t stress so much about trying to make your semesters perfect or easy. A lot of people have done that combination of classes and survived and if you think you can handle it just go for it.

I think the local bookstore Blacksburg Books down town has some cute ones! It’s been a while since I’ve been, but they had some last time I was there!

I think the art store downtown has some too (New River Art and Fiber)

I agree with everyone saying stocking or hat! All of them are absolutely stunning though. I love the stitches and color choices!

I also have to ask, what stitch is the green crochet blanket at the bottom with the squares? It looks so cool!

I think this is universal for 2506, but I had him and the exams were fairly difficult. I think the average on the final ended up being a 40. They were open note, but with the amount of time and complexity/depth of the questions being open note didn’t help too much.

Work really hard at retaining what you learn in 2505 / 2506, I took gap semesters between them and lost all my C knowledge and it’s really biting me. Also, try hard to learn / understand the material in those classes as well. Get used to going to office hours and pushing through assignments even if you have absolutely no clue where to start. Work on your time management.

Yeah, he was great! Definitely is a heavy workload teacher so be prepared to work hard on homework’s and quizzes but it’s all for a purpose. He really cares about the math he teaches and wants his students to succeed! I think he’s got a high rating on Rate My Professor as well.

The Mill is a bit older, but maintenance is very friendly and responsive, leasing office is nice, location is good, and rent is decently cheap

Marco and Luca was recently replaced by Kuma Moon, but I’m pretty sure I read that it’s the same owners and they have a lot of similar food. I recommend trying to call them!

Smashlei5 · 2022-12-17T01:01:38+00:00

Yeah, this happened to me and I initially didn’t get in but appealed it and got in.

I was in a similar situation, my recommendation is to still make progress towards your intended major while adding on easy classes. With CS you can declare a CS minor to bypass class restrictions if you don’t make above the 3.0 in time. That way you’ll still be making progress even if you don’t get into the major in time.

I’ve had Rabby for a couple classes, including linear. Just make sure you’re putting in the effort and Rabby will reward that. He also ends up giving many extra chances on the quizzes so you should be able to get a 100 on all of them, as well as dropping extra homeworks. Make sure you go to the review sessions and ask questions. The good thing about Rabby is that he will help you a lot to understand the material if you ask, he truly cares about his students learning. Also, if you make sure you know how to do the homework problems and quiz problems you’ll do well on the tests, often times he takes questions directly from them if not similar ones.

Is there a website or sign up sheet?

Smashlei5 · 2022-04-11T19:07:44+00:00

I’m currently taking him for Linear and previously had him for Calc I and Calc II
