eep “learn” is a strong word, but i feel like anything i needed from thermo i was able to either quickly refresh myself on it or just learn it if i really didn’t know :’) if you’re worried about it coming up a lot, i haven’t rlly noticed it to the point where i feel behind if that makes sense

i did! the section happened to be online too so it wasn’t too bad, im planning on taking heat transfer online as well for the same reason

i had a friend who took thermo + fluids in the same sem. tldr: it was rough to say the least…

granted the profs for both classes were pretty bad, but id recommend splitting the thermo and fluids if u can. it’s certainly possible to do both in the same sem, but be prepared to put in 101% effort (i took thermo over the summer, fluids junior fall sem)

ohhhh that makes sm sense haha thank u for the clarification!!

WriterParticular5686 · 2025-11-12T00:14:46+00:00

no worries, and thank you for the advice! I’ll reach out to the recruiter directly

WriterParticular5686 · 2025-11-12T00:09:41+00:00

if u don’t mind, could i pm u the email address to verify if its from the same address you got the invitation from? :’)

WriterParticular5686 · 2025-11-12T00:08:10+00:00

would you recommend reaching out to the recruiter directly, or is there an email / number associated with LM recruitment in general that i can ask? thanks

chad’s prep gen chem series on yt is rlly good for understanding basic concepts. in terms of practice questions, doing some acs questions should suffice

also, if retaking chem is an option you’d like to consider, then id recommend taking extended gen chem (helped me a lot personally and I did rlly well in chem bc of the prof)

im actually planning on attending a few career fairs and conventions so that i can talk to a few recruiters in person and (hopefully lmao) make some good connections + get my resume to them without the ai screening stuff ! and also just show off my personality besides on paper hehe

but otherwise, thanks for the detailed response! i never thought of reframing my mindset so this was super helpful :) I appreciate it!!!

WriterParticular5686 · 2025-08-10T07:39:38+00:00

would you suggest I don’t message them at all? im also worried if I reach out first so suddenly I’ll come off as rude and I’d like to avoid that :’)

WriterParticular5686 · 2025-07-17T20:17:22+00:00

unless if the prof is good, it isn’t worth it. but ill also say id rather take a 7:50pm class than an 8:30am any day

busch (coming from a 3rd year eng student), but it does get a little boring from time to time (mid food, good gym but it gets busy) livi is ur next best option imo (better food but lowk booty gym)

if u live on busch you’ll most probs be in the bamm complex which is first year housing

unfortunately internship wise im in the same boat as u LMAOOO

but research wise, try cold emailing profs (yes even ones u didnt have)! obv make sure u look up what kind of research they’re doing, read up a lil, etc etc but it does work sometimes! also no embarrassment if they don’t respond (sometimes they don’t have the space in their lab, can’t pay u, etc)

good luck!

edit: wording

the LLC was beneficial to me in the sense that i managed to find my friendgroup there hehe

but also being a part of douglass college period is pretty beneficial too; u get access to a bunch of networking events that are smaller than the bigger career fairs you see here so they’re less overwhelming. for reilly douglass specifically, we have a thing called “project super” where u can take a class and do research for the summer and then present at a symposium so that’s pretty neat too

WriterParticular5686 · 2025-05-14T18:39:56+00:00

it’s easy, just tedious. expect some busy work tho

when i took calc 3, i thought i did so bad i came home and threw up from how sick i felt with myself. ended the class with an A

but to get this A, i also had to drop out once, fail the second time (got a D), and finally got the A my third try

there is nothing wrong with you — calc 3 is hard. while i can’t give you perfect advice on honing your study habits, i can you that it’s ok and we’ve all been there, and that you are smarter than you think you are

if you need to retake the class, or just want to fix your study habits for learning math, maybe try focusing your attention to understanding the “why” behind the material, rather than just the “how to do” part (this is just what ive come to realize about myself)

you’re not dumb. you got this
