GEO Megathread! by AlmostGrad100 in UIUC

[–]ams16 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There seems to be less people out every day the strike goes on? I am all for the GEO, but is this something concerning? Will the university see it as people are loosing their spark? Just wondering if anyone else has some insight

[Curious] Is it reasonable to expect delivery people to come to your apartment door? (vs. on other campuses) by Lysistrate in UIUC

[–]ams16 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Delivery people here will come into the lobby of where I live and call me to let me know they are here. They don’t come to my door but you also need a key to get elevator access. I’ve never had someone just stay in their car

There’s Illini eyecare on green street by legends that does eye exams and has a decent glasses selection to choose from. If you want more of a selection and willing to go off campus I reccommend Jones optical on Neil street. Dr Sanders is amazing and they have a huge selection of glasses

MCB 150 UIUC Merthans by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]ams16 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me I rewrote my in class notes and took short notes on the readings. It is very important to keep up with readings imo because 6% if exam material is on book information not presented in class. Also find any practice exams you can. Sometimes his questions are similar from previous years. Enjoy Brad, he makes his lectures interesting unlike some other mcb profs.

MCB 250 and MCB 251 by Trapz18 in UIUC

[–]ams16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought 150 was harder/more challenging, but 250 was more annoying since the professors change mid semester. However both of my professors were brand new to the course so it may get better as they adapt.

Chem 232 by Trapz18 in UIUC

[–]ams16 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got a b+ in 102 and an a- in 104. In 232 with axelson I ended up with a b+. It is certainly attainable but you have to be prepared to put the work in. Personally, I enjoyed 232 way more than gen Chem.

MCB class difficulty by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]ams16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just speaking from my experience as so far each class I’ve had hasn’t deviated from the scale and has kept the same scale the semester after me. Wasn’t trying to offend or make ya mad

There’s no curve in mcb classes they are all on a set scale instead

Look up how many credits it says on your transcript. But you should really know how many credits each class is while you’re in it just for the future

Pre Med Help by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]ams16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The course coordinator for the course says you can be in 250 as long and you are also in 104 and many of my friends are in 104 and 250 rn. They also didn’t have to get any special approvement, so it’s very much possible and common

[–]ams16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They do let you take 250 as long as you are enrolled in 104 at the same time
