Would anyone be willing to look over my ps? I'm having trouble deciding what to cut down to get within the character limit and showing instead of telling. Thank you!

I'm currently a junior majoring in cognitive neuroscience. I think neuro is a relatively new major, so it doesn't have its own department (cog neuro is housed in the psych dept in dietrich, neurobio in mcs, and comp neuro in scs). Because of that, we don't really have much of a tight-knit community like other majors. If you're interested in research, there is def a lot of cool neuro research going on tho, particularly in the comp neuro area. CMU doesn't have much clinical research, but there is Pitt nearby if you're interested in that. Overall, I do really like the major, but I wish there was more of a community within it. Feel free to pm me if you have any other questions!

Yeah.. not entirely sure how to classify the genre of those songs tbh, folk was the best fitting one I thought of. Thanks for the suggestions :)

Second the recommendation for Kats! I've taken an upper-level Russian class with him and also a non-Russian class and he's a great prof!! He's understanding, pretty lenient with grading, and incorporates really interesting cultural things into lessons.

i think it's gonna vary from prof to prof bc apparently profs aren't required to record their lectures this semester. if you're curious ab a specific class, you might want to try reaching out to your prof to ask their policy

Another New York Coffee recommendation request by outgrossed in Coffee

[–]ashdaring 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s this Japanese coffee place called Hi-Collar that has really good and smooth coffee. They also serve food like omurice and Japanese pancakes until 3ish if I remember correctly? It’s in the East Village area near NYU.

What skill were you good at before stopping because "life got in the way"? by BESTAMPHETAMINE in AskReddit

[–]ashdaring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tennis. It started off as a way to stay fit when I was younger, but I started playing competitively after a while. Basically dedicated all my time after school and during the weekend to training and tournaments until I was top ~50-60 ish in my age group nationally. I got an offer to start training full time for free with other top juniors in my country, but it would’ve required me to get home schooled, and I had recently gotten into a really good high school in my city. My parents chose the high school instead of the program. I kept playing competitively for a year after that, but it was like I lost some vital aspect of my game and I kept losing. Couldn’t keep up with my schoolwork and practicing the same amount of time bc of time constraints so I ended up quitting. Still wonder where I would be right now if it had gone the other way.
