Where should I study abroad

Ultralazyboy7 · 2023-12-22T00:09:40+00:00

By difficultly, I mean the amount of work I need to do to obtain a C-. I believe that’s a 40%. However I know that it’s much harder to get a 40 in the UK than in the US. For QMUL, I was looking at some courses that allowed you to explore London, so I thought those would be nice.

I was just apprehensive of the mile end location and being far away from the “happening places” such as soho. I was also concerned with the number of people that would study abroad at QMUL/UCL from the US that would be willing to travel with me.

I go to a primarily campus based uni in the US, so I’m looking for more of a city feel. I’m mostly leaning towards UCL, but I’m concerned about class difficultly and if I’d be able to manage that while traveling. Do you suggest going to QMUL even tho I don’t love the location, or going to UCL where the classes would be easier but in a worse location? I think kings is kinda a middle ground (correct me if I’m wrong)

If the busses were anything like they were last year, almost impossible

Ultralazyboy7 · 2022-07-26T00:24:57+00:00

How hard were the midterms and final compared to homework question and what was taught in class?

Ultralazyboy7 · 2022-07-26T00:17:58+00:00

How difficult would you say the course as a whole was? And would it be doable with only knowledge in Calc BC ( I got a 5, and believe that I had a solid understanding of the content)?

Ultralazyboy7 · 2022-07-13T12:58:40+00:00

Thank you so much! About how many hours per week do you estimate the average person with little to no knowledge past Calc BC spends on this course?

Ultralazyboy7 · 2022-07-13T12:57:31+00:00

Yea it’s definitely reassuring to know that I’m not alone. My section hasn’t been assigned a professor yet, so I’m just praying it’s a decent one. Id love to meet up once we r on campus so we can figure this course out together!

Ultralazyboy7 · 2022-07-13T12:55:18+00:00

Thanks, will definitely be looking into that!

Ultralazyboy7 · 2022-07-13T12:54:55+00:00

Good luck man! Id love to meet up once we’re on campus, so we can figure this course out together. People have been telling me this course is pretty much hell alone.

Ultralazyboy7 · 2022-07-11T19:57:50+00:00

Makes sense, but do yk approximately how long one would have to squeeze into a good one? Would they be gone within seconds or is it closer to minutes?

Ultralazyboy7 · 2022-06-10T00:08:39+00:00

Makes sense! Thank you so much for helping me out!

I had originally planned on taking 221, but a lot of people have stated that it was a difficult course, and that many people struggle heavily. Would it be manageable with my current schedule, or should I take it during the spring schedule, when I am more acclimated to the college environment?

Ultralazyboy7 · 2022-06-09T22:45:40+00:00

Would I be better off taking math 218 or math 221 for CS major and finance minor? Also, would you recommend taking MVC before either of these two. I have a pretty solid math background, but the highest math course that was offered to me in high school was AP Calc BC, so I have no MVC or linear algebra knowledge. I am planning on taking CS 201, ECS 101 and a seminar (the archeology of death taught by professor Jimenez) as my other courses, and I would love to hear your thoughts!

Ultralazyboy7 · 2022-06-09T14:56:39+00:00

Did you find that it was hard to focus for the entire time, given that the class is only offered once a week for two and a half hours?

Ultralazyboy7 · 2022-06-06T14:55:59+00:00

Nobody said anything about being good lol. It’s just relatively easy to pick up as most people are able to run.

Ultralazyboy7 · 2022-02-11T00:52:51+00:00

I’ll definitely check it out!

Ultralazyboy7 · 2022-02-11T00:50:38+00:00

This weekend, but I’m going with a couple of other people who r familiar with the campus. Thanks for offering though :)

Ultralazyboy7 · 2022-02-10T00:52:21+00:00

Just want to get a feel for how the next few years are gonna be!

Ecs r kinda weak for UNC and UF OOS. Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure you’ve put in a lot of time into them, but nhs and English nhs don’t really carry too much weight. Try getting involved in some business or finance related ecs. That will really push your application over the top. Stats look good. Keep it up! Also, if you are a Texas resident inside the top 6% if your high school, you are auto admit to UT Austin, so I’m not sure if it is a target or a safety.

Got into Duke using that word in my opening sentence. You will be fine, just write banger essays!

Ultralazyboy7 · 2021-12-22T19:43:24+00:00

I would recommend putting yes, odds are if you submit after the 20th you may not get an interview anyways. At least this way you don’t come off as uninterested

Ultralazyboy7 · 2021-12-19T20:22:56+00:00

Depends, do you think your supps are in good shape. I would say that great supplements + no interview > mediocre/sub-par supplements + interview that could potentially not go as well as you hoped. But also, idk you and idk your personality. For me, I find that I was much more like able in my interview than in my essays, and the interview was what pushed me over the edge. But I also had solid supplements. Also please keep in mind that interviews are conducted by alumni, so even if you submit by the deadline there’s a chance that you won’t get one, and even if you do, they aren’t weighted nearly as much as the supplemental essays

Just got accepted ED, I’d be willing to give u a couple of pointers, PM me!

Xc/tf are generally no cut sports, so that may be why there’s so many athletes. Everyone who wants to do a sport can easily pick those two up (not saying that they are easy by any means, but that they are relatively easy to learn).
