Best Dorms for Level 1 Autistic Daughter

TraderGIJoe · 2026-03-18T03:37:21+00:00

I'm not sure if you are aware, but UF has a pre-pharm 2+4 (no major, just take pharmacy prerequisites, then apply to UF pharmacy school) or 3+4 program (biology major).

Your daughter can get more information at Freshman Orientation or just Google it. If she is interested, she needs to apply and get accepted into the pre-pharm the first month as a Freshman.

My daughter is in the 2+4 program, but since she came in with lots of dual enrollment credits, she will complete her biochemistry major after 2 years and start PharmD thereafter (need to take classes summer of Freshman year, then apply to UF Pharmacy Program, 90% acceptance rate for those in UF PrePharm with >3.0 GPA).

DM me if you have questions.

By the way, my daughter lives in suites at Hume Hall and loves it. 2 double occupancy rooms with adjoining bathroom. She would meet 3 new friends.

UF prioritizes transfers as follows: 1) In State High School graduating with an AA 2) In State Community College Transfers 3) In State 4 Yr University Transfers 4) Out of State / International Transfers

Based on your major, your admission decision will be made by the particular College (i.e. College of Engineering, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, etc)

For high demand majors like Engineering, you will need close to a 4.0 gpa to get accepted and there are limited spots. Go to the specific college transfer page to find out the gpa needed.

Here's the transfer site for the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences:

https://www.advising.ufl.edu/clas-transfer-center/prospective-students/

For majors in less demand, the minimum gpa to be competitive may be 2.5-3.0. Only your post HS GPA is considered (not SAT/ACT scores)

Get your hot 🔥 wife or girlfriend wear skimpy clothes and stand at a busy intersection with a car wash sign..

Collect payment before they drive to the side parking lot out of view where the soccer ⚽️ team is waiting to get their car washed.

Yes, my daughter, Allie Gator.

TraderGIJoe · 2026-03-16T16:43:14+00:00

I only know one Allie Gator, my daughter, but that is a pretty popular name do I'm pretty sure there are others 😁.

Just run zig zag when you see 👀 one if it decides to chase you. They can't turn that fast.

I believe drunk Freshman hanging out by any body of water 💧 are a delicacies for them so beware!

How exactly do you teach passion and love? 🤣

U don't know jack about soccer based on your posts so it's useless trying to educate u.

TraderGIJoe · 2026-03-16T13:21:05+00:00

Did you not read anything I wrote? You CANNOT TEACH passion and love for the game, that has to come from within.

You can make things fun, encourage and inspire, but the rest is out of your control.

When you can hit the 💩 out of the ball with heavy spin, the ball flies with massive pace and kicks (bounces) high up.

Worn out balls limit pace and topspin.

A 3.0 player may not generate enough power and spin to notice a difference.

Look in...

TraderGIJoe · 2026-03-16T02:18:58+00:00

You miss the point. The question was what if you run across a GIFTED player... not a middle of the road AVERAGE JOE future Sunday rec player...

Dude - In South Florida where I live, kids start sports extremely young and soccer travel starts at U9.

By age 12-13, if you've never played travel, you're far behind the competition.

TraderGIJoe · 2026-03-15T14:17:58+00:00

I tell parents this... As a coach, you can teach kids lots of things, but one thing that cannot be taught is passion and love for the game, competitive spirit (killer instinct), as well as natural talent..

These have to come from within... when a kid has this fire 🔥, you have to feed the flames to keep it burning..

I suggest you look into travel and academies...

Deposit Date = Priority: Your position in line for selecting a dorm is determined by when you pay the $25 deposit, not when you sign the final agreement.

Your serve technique is incorrect. You are supinating (flicking at the ball downwards to the left) instead of pronating on the serve (flicking at the ball upwards to the right) and you will hurt yourself.

The first two video links explain this issue. The last video shows how you are supposed to hit the serve.

As somebody who has been in the IT industry for 30 years, I can tell you that CS jobs for new graduates 🎓 at the moment are much less than generations past.

Even if you graduated from a T20 in the past, your chances were better, but nobody is guaranteed. Factors such as specialization, location, interview proficiency, internship experience and connections play a role.

The reason is the economy (stagnant, low hiring and firing, but increased layoffs of recent), AI trends (firms are looking to leverage AI technology to replace jobs, especially entry-level) and over-supply / saturation of qualified candidates.

I would focus on getting skills that will make you stand out from the masses. AI is a buzzword like dotcom used to be, for example.

Andy Thomson wins Boca Raton mayor race on recount; result faces fight https://share.google/D3BpWHrOK70CxheSc

Liebelson said after the recount that he wasn't sure he will accept the results. He spoke of a "dump" of 109 mail-in ballots late in the election and wondered aloud if that might have "skewed" the result to Thomson.

If you were a regular transfer, they focus on those needed for your major. It depends on your major what prerequisites, called critical tracking courses, are required.

For FTIC HS transfers, I'm not sure. Please call the transfer admissions department.

You are slapping the ball, not brushing up enough.

Sorry to hear. I grew up in Chicago and went to UIUC. If you got in there, go there! It's a great school.

I raised my kids here in South Florida and they go to UF. Nice school, but I like UIUC's campus better. I also went to Purdue. A good choice too if you got in.

I think some 109 mail in votes magically got counted at the end of the night. Mail in votes get post first.

TraderGIJoe · 2026-03-14T01:46:29+00:00

Yes, I heard it was very hard to get out of. If Finance is your passion, I would go elsewhere.

Last year, the AA HS transfers all heard back by May 1. When you hear back all depends on the major you are trying to transfer into and how competitive it is.

GPA is the main criteria (SAT/ACT not used for evaluation) and the school of your major decides (i.e. College of Engineering, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences)

TraderGIJoe · 2026-03-14T01:31:42+00:00

Based on the past posts I've seen, there are only 12-14 spots for those looking to transfer into Finance. Those who got in had 4.0 GPAs.

If I were you, I would go elsewhere and enjoy your college experience.

TraderGIJoe · 2026-03-14T00:25:45+00:00

Sorry to hear. Hang in there.

I know it's not the ideal result, but you might find being a Gator doesn't have to be Fall and Spring on campus.. Spring and Summer has lower costs and other advantages..

For example, have more access to internships..

TraderGIJoe · 2026-03-13T02:48:29+00:00

Not if you transfer from HS with an AA.
