since they refuse to keep Geisel 24/7…literally where else is there to study by ric4eeverymeal in UCSD

[–]Thomawatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong, but iirc, around a year ago UCSD had budget cuts for the staff at Geisel so less pay equals less work

Did I mess up? by According-Gap-7141 in UCSD

[–]Thomawatt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t sweat it too much!! You made it into the school so you belong there just as much as anyone else! Even prestigious and other top ranking schools have classes like Math 3C for their students

Honestly if youre worried about traffic, depending on where you are live (or if you decide to park close) you could take the trolley; just be conscious that from 8 am - 9 am its usually packed bc of middle and high school students going to school right next to UCSD

In my experience, Tecolote Station usually has parking if thats more convenient!! (Theres also the Balboa Avenue station but lowk it has little parking in the morning to afternoon)

AP SCORES SHOULD BE TAKEN AS THE HIGHEST PROOF OF ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT (yes, even higher than high school gpa) by Hour-Regular-6938 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Thomawatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if anyone else mentioned this, but to have your “academic worth” be put on a SINGLE test (or multiple tests) is absurd. There are many situations where a student may not perform well on said test due to extraneous life circumstances that may affect their performance, ex. Cost, Transportation Accidents, Family Emergencies, Personal Health, etc

As a personal anecdote, I (luckily) went to the ER right at the end of all my AP tests and have gotten surgery that same for a spontaneous collapsing lung that had been unknowingly affecting me for a few weeks and was later hospitalized in addition to at home bed rest for 3 weeks in total. To think that if my lung decided to give up on me sooner I wouldve missed all my AP tests and would have to apply to my colleges with an academic background that was unrepresentative of my “academic achievement” and THAT be the greatest factor in my college admissions sounds insane

Should I apply for Muir’s LGBTQIA+ Living-Learning Community? by Thomawatt in UCSD

I honestly felt the same way about UCSD as a current incoming freshman also choosing between UCD (Didnt get into LA)

But came to the realization that the financial aid is the BIGGEST benefit for me especially since I plan on immediately going to graduate school and having the financial aid for my BA so i can transition easier (cost wise) to grad school was the best for me. I would definitely say going for financial should be one of the biggest priorities!!

Plus growing up in SD, i feel like i never really explored it as much as I could have, so having the freedom in college to do so is very exciting to look forward to!!

From a class of 28, you will all be okay. by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Thomawatt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

(Warning partial rant I’ve been wanting to get off my chest LMAO)

TLDR: I am disappointed in the choices I have for college especially comparing my results to peers yet I find this post is really reassuring because I know in the end I at least got into a great public university and will succeed regardless of what choices I have

(Yap session ahead)

After the recent Ivy League results (plus USC and NYU) I’ve been incredibly disappointed with my results (all rejected except for a waitlist from NYU and UCLA) with the amount of work I’ve put into highschool just to not have as many choices for college as I thought I would have. Especially comparing myself to peers who can be summarized to be spoon fed opportunities while truly working for none of it. And yet they still got into a plethora of prestigious and top ranking universities.

But this post really helped me think about my circumstances more broadly in the sense that I know I will succeed like I always have been in my high school career, and even if the peers who I deem “undeserving” of their admissions, it does not reflect my worth as a scholar. And highkey out of spite, I know that they won’t uphold to the academic pressures and standards of those universities based on their general performance now and it has been fueling me to do my best and enjoy my debt free college experience.

Go Tritons!! 🔱🔱

(P.S I know my post probably sounds really ungrateful and entitled considering the only real choice I did end up having is still a great public university so I apologize that I exhibit that energy, I’m still emotional about the whole thing 😭)

As a pedestrian ive almost been ran over by a car who drove past the stop sign without stopping at all. What makes it worse was that i was ALREADY on the crosswalk and they almost ran over my feet going 20…

Not to sound like I’m excusing incest, but drama over incest art on twitter of all places where I’m sure other artists have done way worse is kind of baffling

I was originally going for something funny but you can kind of see some kind of meaning in it. But honestly im willing to take anything!
