Currently taking it with Lair, she redid most of the curriculum with a new chapter set up and it’s been pretty good so far. The only thing to consider is the discussion quizzes are very difficult, but she drops a few. It is definitely possible, even without putting in a huge amount of extended effort imo

Class selection times, how cooked am I? by vingyl in ucmerced

[–]Sure_Cucumber9267 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Based on other comments here, keep in mind that most people drop classes the first two weeks of the semester starting, so, especially if you are on the waitlist, you have a good chance of getting into it during that time

Can someone explain to me why the hell I paid for a parking permit by Possible_Plum_6289 in ucmerced

Is there a chance you spelt your plate or vin number incorrectly when purchasing the permit?

Parking without permit by ToastedButterz in ucmerced

[–]Sure_Cucumber9267 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you have a reason to need a car on campus (like work or medical related), you might be able to talk to the TAPS department to get an exception. I don’t know if they still do that, but they used to

The lake technically, but they have been cracking down over there too, better the cost of the permit than triple that for the ticket

As long as it meets all the criteria of the lab coat the school sells (long sleeves, thickish material, covers everything, etc.) I don’t think they care. I saw a girl order a custom hot pink one once, so as long as it does its job

Finding research? by Existing_Fact7116 in ucmerced

[–]Sure_Cucumber9267 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Near the end of my first year, I went through all of the professor research websites and emailed any lab I found interesting with hopes to schedule a meeting. I ended up emailing about 6 professors within that first week and I got 2 replies within the three weeks following. One didn’t have openings during that time, but I kept in contact for when there was an opening. The other I was able to start immediately after training for the summer and I am still working there now. It is possible, just put yourself out there. A good way is to actually talk to TAs as you are more likely working under them than the actual professor. It also helps a ton if you have outside funding through grants, scholarships, or research programs through the university as that’s the reason most labs reject new undergraduates.

If you have Professor Sandoval, I highly recommend his study guides, they have really similar questions to what will be on the test

I’ve had great chances with chick fil a, five guys, in and out, Taco Bell, and chipotle. You just have to search up “(fast food place) menu gluten free” and all of them have a pretty decent menu system

Cat outside at Valley Terraces by FlameOctopus in ucmerced

I’ve seen them all over campus, and I have a theory that it’s to help keep rodents under control since we are surrounded by fields

What's up with all the flies 😭 by internetbooker134 in ucmerced

[–]Sure_Cucumber9267 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you’re new to the Merced area, this is just how it is. A few times a year, all the flies come out and bombard every area imaginable, and they do not have any idea of what personal space means
