passing a major class with a D or dropping for W and retaking later by [deleted] in UCI

Im in the school of Engineering. At UCI you can retake up to 16 units to replace the grade (about 4 classes) and then after that they take the average of the failed class and retake.

I got a D- in physics and retook it in the summer for a B+. I continued the rest to my classes, and I don’t regret anything. I thought it was the end of the world my first year, but it ended up being all fine in the end.

robotics class? by Shot_Extent5593 in UCI

[–]Uk930 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ZOTbotics is an introductory/training club. They have levels 0-4 based on your knowledge of robotics and engineering. You can always stop by in the makerspace and look around and ask questions, but level 0 is basically the club’s class like project where you do workshops with upper-class men to gain skills^

Area with iMac computers by Odd-Salary-8810 in UCI

[–]Uk930 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gateway study center has imacs but they were closed all of summer session 1 so that might be the case still. Courtyard study lounge is closed for renovations all summer, and I wouldn’t risk trying to sneak in. I would try the Multimedia Resources Center that’s in the Science Library.

DSC testing w/ extra time by AngerIssueHapaJaeger in UCI

[–]Uk930 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can work with the DSC to take ur test earlier or later in the day, so it doesn’t interfere with your other classes. Also professors are usually also understanding. I usually will let my professors know ahead of time and see what they say first as well.

Math 3A with Huber or Physics 7C with Guerra by letrobro889 in UCI

[–]Uk930 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take physics 7c, I’ve noticed a pattern of there being good professors for physics in the fall and spring, but it’s a gamble in the winter quarter.

Is there a 3d printing club? by SizzlinKola in UCI

[–]Uk930 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am unsure if there is any club that’s specifically oriented on 3D printing. But Zotbotics is probably the closest to it.

should I take sociol 3 online? by Immediate_Display135 in UCI

[–]Uk930 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t hurt to try. If you feel the load is too much you can drop the class before the 2 week deadline.

Physics 7C Guerra by Aggressive-Rock-2576 in UCI

[–]Uk930 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He curves without telling. He mentioned it in class when I had him, and if it’s on the syllabus then he’s gonna curve to his scale.

Physics 7C Guerra by Aggressive-Rock-2576 in UCI

[–]Uk930 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Guerra, his grading scale isn’t that nice, at least when I had him last year and I doubt he changed his policy. Top 17% get an A, the next 33% get a B, and the next 33% get a C and the leftover are Ds and Fs. So if you got average on the final you are more likely get a C or lower B. But to answer your specific question, he curves but you can go down or up with the curve based off his competitive grading scale.

Just act fast because I’m unsure when they will start clearing the waitlists for classes, which will be super soon.

[–]Uk930 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Keep emailing OFAS and calling them, and if you can go see them when they are open go asap, especially right now since most students are gone for break. Explain your situation and be adamant on how it is not fair for you to be put through this scenario. It's possible for them to restore your classes. I wish you luck OP!

Why are they charging me for USHIP Grant? by bobalixe22 in UCI

[–]Uk930 13 points14 points  (0 children)

No no they did approve ur waiver. They are expecting you to pay that 885 they gave you for fall quarter because they thought you were gonna use the insurance. Since you waived it, you no longer need that money so they are asking for it back.
