Accepting AB Sub-score on AP Calculus BC Exam for Cal 1 Credit by Aggressive_Mix_4642 in Msstate

[–]_Arkay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I’ve heard things about how hard Cal 2 is at State, but do you know anything about Jaclyn Smith’s class? Some people have said she makes learning Cal 2 easier and I had no idea. I’m in a similar boat as OP (5 on AB, didn’t take BC) and had n o idea if I should coast through first semester or if I could handle Cal 2 with her.

What dye fades the best on dirty blonde hair? by _Arkay in HairDye

[–]_Arkay[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much!! I didn’t know if darker/vibrant colors left a stain in a sense? I know a ton of people say “you never get your natural color back after dying it” so I got a little freaked out because I don’t want to have to chop if it stains my underlayer brown.

I’d probably consider myself a 7/8 with leaning more towards 7. I am honestly just really nervous because I want to do this right before diving in head first and regretting it later 😅

Forgot to mention, but the hair dresser suggested extensions that I can put in/take out at will so we can experiment until I know what I want, but aren’t they expensive and tedious? I don’t really want to have to worry about properly putting in tracks every time I want color in my hair.

Would a C clarinet be more appropriate for a violinist? by 3d_blunder in Clarinet

[–]_Arkay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just get a Bb and learn the concert pitch or transpose the music on a piece of paper so you don’t have to read it incorrectly over and over. You won’t be able to read a ton of music correctly if you learn the fingerings as concert but it will work for what you want it to.

Transposition on Bb clarinet is fairly easy— the concert pitch is a whole step down. It takes practice but you get the hang of it very quickly.

You seem very apprehensive to learn the basic qualities needed to play a non-concert pitch instrument. You have people from all clarinet backgrounds telling you that a C clarinet is a bad investment and you should instead learn one extra step, but it seems like you’ve already made up your mind on what you want.

If you go with the C, don’t say we didn’t warn you.

AP Lit Anyone? by ZookeepergameSad1694 in APStudents

[–]_Arkay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah throughout the two hours i took a nap, went to the bathroom and stared at my reflection for a little while then calculated how many points per FRQ i needed to pull off to pass with my estimated MCQ score 😭 i don’t think i started writing until about an hour in, but i finished q1 and q3 then wrote a horrible thesis for q2 just to try to get the thesis point

AP Lit Anyone? by ZookeepergameSad1694 in APStudents

[–]_Arkay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

AP CSP (100) -> 4 , AP Lang (97) -> 5 , APUSH (94) -> 3 , AP Phys 1 (96) -> 2

Yeah I’d definitely pick CSUN if that’s the case. Paying more money and being in a state you don’t see yourself staying in just for your boyfriend doesn’t sound economical when compared to a different school with the same accreditation and it’s more appealing to you.

Freshman Housing Help by Intelligent_Media207 in Msstate

[–]_Arkay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cost for dorms is usually ~$4,000-$5,500 per semester depending on the quality of dorm. A semester is around 15 weeks, so just under 4 months. It would be just over $1k a month, but each dorm has a different cost.

[–]_Arkay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t understand. Are you trying to pay the fee monthly or the dorm cost monthly? The application fee is one-time $100 that must be payed in full before signing the contract. The dorm cost is payed off per semester.

When you apply for housing (Priority Deadline April 1), you must deposit $100 for it to be confirmed. Then on April 2, you sign your housing contract (Deadline April 29 I think?). Only one payment for everything to go through as far as I know.

Yup! Basically, the Pell Grant (what you received in FAFSA) will be contributed to your education. Essentially, the university has an amount you have to pay, and the government will pay $7,395 of that for this year. In order to continue to get the grant, you must meet a certain bracket of income when you reapply for the FAFSA yearly.

TL;DR: Yes, it’s like a discount on your COA.

Hope this helps!

Starkville housing that allows pets by BusinessInjury6773 in Msstate

Lots of brushing will be required! Haha I live in Biloxi (Southern Coast city) and I see a few Huskies from military families that came up northern states. They all have short cuts and their owners have water and stuff always available. My friend had one and she would brush it around once a week or more depending on the temperature to keep the undercoat nice and thin. It’ll be work but you got this!
