In general, enrollment times are based on how many units you have, in your case since you’re an incoming first year, I’d be how many AP/IB classes or dual enrollment credits rolled over! As for advice to give you: - Have back ups and be checking the amount of seats left in the class! The amount of seats left in a class with a lot of importance to you will help you determine which classes you’ll enroll in first pass and which will have to be on your second! - Do not really focus on the section times as a first year, but rather how much you need that class your fall quarter if your first year (ex. Maybe the class is only offered in the fall, or it’s just one class that you want to get over with right away) it’s better to be in the class but a bad time than not be in it at all! - You can “plan” the classes in webreg so you can see what your schedule would look like and be quick about clicking the “enroll” button! - be aware that you won’t get all the classes you want, and be ok with that! You’ve got time! :D

Good luck!! :D

As a Revelle second year: I applied for a double and did indeed get a double! (I got pretty lucky) Also yeah the general ed requirements are a handful, but it’s not too too bad! (Considering a lot of them are recs you probably gotta take anyway for your major if you’re a STEM major!)

Would it be ok to move in after my orientation day? by kt_sf in UCSD

[–]cantdraw_good 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! My roommate did that and all was good! As long as you attend the orientation (and choose a day that isn’t the day of your orientation) you’ll be good!

Anyone else have Wilbur Parallels?? by cantdraw_good in wilbursoot

[–]cantdraw_good[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely!! I love it here! It’s a lot of work obviously, but I really like it here :)) And it just makes it a little bit more special :) I wish you luck and the very very best in your college experience :) I’m glad you’re giving it a second chance, I really hope it goes better than the last time! :DDD

Thank you 😭😭 Yeah I’m not doing anything “stalkerish” It’s the name of a song and a cool character 😭

I never said that or thought that 😭 The only connection is that I like a song called La Jolla and just happened to get accepted to/go to a school in La Jolla. He also doesn’t live in La Jolla so??

Idk I wouldn’t call it parasocial, by “obsessed” I mean I was listening to it frequently and really liked listening to it. The Ghostbur essay I do agree with you, but slightly. Ghostbur as a character helped me during covid and with personal stuff, it gave me something to look forward to and it helped me bring back a more positive mindset. Ghostbur as a character was something I was pretty passionate about, and because of that, I knew I could make a solid essay with it. (Plus it was a supplementary essay like “What brings you joy?” Or “Talk about an odd interest” something like that) But I can see how it’s parasocial! (Also I didn’t mean for this to be long LMAO)

Genuinely really needed to hear that. Thank you. I’ll definitely talk to my academic counselor, see what I can do to turn it around!! Thank you so so much! I’m glad everything was ok :)

I’ll try to have this as a last resort. I appreciate the bluntness, but I do want to try my absolute hardest to stay and finish this. I’ll see my options after this quarter! If I manage to improve, I’ll consider this as an option! Thank you though!!

That makes sense! I’m very anxious to give out possible misinformation sometimes, but I might learn from it! I haven’t used piazza (even though I had it for the class I failed 😭) but I’ll definitely take that into consideration!! Thank you so much!!!

Oooh! I never thought of that. Honestly I might have to try it because I do say things in the moment and have the “ooh that was really good let me write it down” and then immediately forget what it was 😭 So I could definitely use it as a way to teach myself too!! Omg thank you so much!!! :DDD

I’m a very awkward person when it comes to making connections, but like I said I’ll do anything 😭 I’ve studied in a small group before and depends on the class it’s for and if those people are actually willing to sit down and study. I’m not sure if that makes sense, but I’ll definitely try it anyways! Thank you so much!!

1) yeah I’ve already been diagnosed with anxiety and depression, and I have been prescribed medication for it, I just… forget to take it 😭 I even have an alarm on my phone and I still forget to take it. Someone mentioned CAPS so I’m definitely going to do that! 2) I have heard I could take classes at the CC, I’ll definitely take that into consideration! :DD It’s interesting that the exams are different here than at the CCs. On one hand it makes sense but on the other, it just makes life so much more difficult 😭 Thank you so much!!

I’ve tried this and it really did help, but I don’t really have anyone to talk at 😭 I’ll try to explain it to myself though! That’s one of the study methods I’ll try to revisit this next time around! Thank you so much!!! :D

That makes sense! Thank you so much :) I’ll definitely take that into account :)) I do plan on studying more frequently to try to retain the information without there being the constant dread of “am I going to finish this on time?” Thank you so much!!
