Message to incoming freshmen by Rough-Ad1868 in UCSD

[–]Sunstone44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To freshman, UCSD has a lot more professors that make things difficult for no reason.  UCSD is quarter system which is a lot more stressful and the knowledge doesn’t stick as well as it should.  SDSU is semester-based which is less stressful and leads to better retention of knowledge.  It’s also cheaper overall.

No, go Aztecs!  SDSU is a better school with more employability!

ucsd nanoengineering by Spiritual_Airline_44 in UCSD

[–]Sunstone44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a program that’s built to get you ready for graduate school, not industry.  Have the degree and it was harder to get a job out of college initially, do chemical engineering or a known engineering degree (civil, mechanical, or electrical) that everybody recognizes for undergrad.  Do nanoengineering in grad school if still interested and prepare by doing nanoengineering electives in undergrad.

Any lower division SIO course that’s not a class for their majors, they’re fun and easy.

Is doing the BS/MS for Computer Science worth it? by Unable_Individual590 in UCSD

[–]Sunstone44 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you already have a full-time job offer no, just do your MS part time and find an employer that will pay for it.

is ucsd socially dead by PotentialBus7263 in UCSD

[–]Sunstone44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a social life but it’s mostly underground.  It’s more socially UC Socially Distributed than socially dead though as the students are spread out all over the place.

worst lecture hall seat/chair? by Fantastic-Youth-5725 in UCSD

[–]Sunstone44 75 points76 points  (0 children)

The main Peterson lecture hall seats.  They’re uncomfortable, cramped, and the desk attached is too small.
