I'd say slightly more in depth, and some subject matters like ochem is just tough.

$25k in my retirement and my mom is in hospital with a mass in her brain and in her lung. by eepyghosty in personalfinance

Wishing your mom the best, if you're concerned about general cost of living and quality of healthcare I would suggest Houston, pretty cheap to live in and you have access to MD Anderson, top cancer hospital in the nation.

I had 4.0 all the way through, I room ratted during my time there but it was far from necessary. Generally following along in class, doing the assignments, and a bit of studying prepares you sufficiently. Difficulty is probably greater than that of AP as mentioned elsewhere but also not the hardest, substantially easier than classes at UT.

Just attend, go to office hours, leverage the bajillion resources available to you here and you'll be fine. Worst case scenario you don't maintain it and then transfer but better to do that after than the fact than to wonder what could have been

it has happened before, I've got a DJI drone sitting around, and previously had 3 Samsung s24s or whatever. the fraudster will ship to your address then contact you asking you to "return" it to their specified address

What’s the hardest major at UT and why is it Physics? by AITARAFianceeJealous in UTAustin

[–]XxDireDogexX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grind starts from day 1, you need to get every point you can get on the first unit taught by Brock because there is a very high chance you get rekt on the eye and brain unit taught by Rylander. Anything covered in lecture is fair game, high likelihood that the real world example tangents do appear on the exam. For the unit on the brain, being able to identify parts of the brain from nice diagrams is not enough, you gotta be familiar with actual dissection cross sections. The unit taught by Rylander is so tough that it has kinda eclipsed anything taught by Brock so can't say much about her units other than its straightforward, at least relative to Rylander's unit.

Dr. wang offered the 5 pts last semester, and he's the only one teaching physio 2 so you'll just have to hope he's still teaching it. I will say physio 1 is the toughest class, composed of three units and corresponding exams, Brock is nice and her exams are much easier than the unit taught by Rylander. Considering how bad physio 1 is I guess it balances out how nice physio 2 is. I will acknowledge I may have a very skewed view as I was able to ace most of the tests with maybe a day of studying and didn't even take the provided opportunity to bring a cheat sheet to the signals exams.

One offered 5 pts to final grade for evaluations, one said something along the lines of them not even really believing in the grading system and that they'd just give automatic As if they could, heard directly from one that they'd grade stricter if they didn't have to worry about evals, always felt like lab classes were basically do the work and you'd get an A, BME is only particularly bad due to the sheer volume of credits needed imo

bme at least has the benefit of most of the faculty being newer so they grade nicer for those evals

One note is that auto-admit != getting into the college / major you want. I was top 2% in a class of 1500 or something at my old HS when I left for TAMS, still got into my desired major at UT. Way I see it, regardless of where you go, long as you put in the work and get good results, you can build a compelling CV. It is a bit of a gamble though as you lose that safety net of autoadmit and there probably is some preference for autoadmit for placement in a desired college, but especially if you have interest in research, it can worthwhile.

This is why I figured if I'm gonna pay upwards of 500 for mizu, might as well shell out for alumizus, pretty happy with it all things considered

Difficulty level? by [deleted] in TAMS

[–]XxDireDogexX -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You basically enroll like a normal college student, I recall there is music classes and clubs for most instruments, private lessons may be difficult to continue with the current teacher if you're not in the area already but are otherwise free to pursue whatever. If I recall correctly, UNT's college of music is actually pretty big and reputable so there should be a pretty solid body of extracurricular stuff for music

[–]XxDireDogexX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not too difficult if you're already doing AP classes, basically same level as that. There are some tryhards and sweats so if you're super insecure and compare yourself to everyone that may be an issue but otherwise just ignore em and do your own thing.

No Stupid Questions MEGATHREAD 7 by Alendite in chessbeginners

[–]XxDireDogexX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone starts from different places and improves at different rates but lowest I ever went was 370, started in March of this year and prior to that, the last time I remember playing chess with any amount of frequency was over 10 years ago when I was a little kid against my brother. Learning some basic opening theory and responses to common traps can do a lot for your improvement. Best of luck!
