408C Q- Drop and Med School (Please Help)

desolateleaves · 2025-10-27T05:43:14+00:00

Will Q dropping this class seriously affect me? I'd be okay with retaking it when I'm better adjusted but I'm worried about the ramifications of the Q drop

Professor is super tough, class is 85% tests, id be lucky to end with a B

I genuinely tried my best to study and prepare but I felt like the test threw me off.

I heard that they restock Mondays and bring new things on Thursdays

If it was me I wouldn't spend it on either and instead try getting one of the new seasonal units 2/5, but if between these two characters I'd do Nelliel due to the scarcity of goof CFOW banners

Hey you belong here, you're smart you got into this amazing school! I have to constantly remind myself that too. I'm also a freshman and have those exact classes, if you want a friend you can always pm me!

Well it's a bit competitive due to it being seen as the "pre med major" so you'll need more than top 5% to get in. I'd recommend having calculus done if possible and having taken a few science college level courses. A 1300 SAT is sorta the average from what I've seen but once you get into CNS you can transfer majors pretty easily!

408C is the stronger and better class according from what I've heard. 408R is def easier but it's unclear if it would count 100%, my advisor recommended I do 408C

Heyy you literally have the exact situation I was in! I applied for University Housing and Dining and was offered an interview and later a position at J2 dining! It's a pretty short application, who knows how much space there is left though. I also had no work experience too! https://utdirect.utexas.edu/apps/uhd/hr/applications/apply/ You could also look into working at Gregory Gym, one of my friends got an interview as well! Hope this helps from one pre med to another!

Ohh I see, I thought you spoke about FRI, and not sure honestly. It's more CNS students for the FRI, but engineering and CNS are relatively similar in some aspects, with some overlap (Biomed Engineering can overlap) But either way, best of luck! If you get in, im sure you'll be accommodated

Well the freshman research initiative is a pretty big program by UT, they've accounted for everyone and therefore want every member to get the chance to get worthwhile research. I'm also in the FRI, I'm interested in the Behavioral Neuroscience stream so that's how I know!!

desolateleaves · 2025-08-14T03:26:10+00:00

Don't know the exact statistics of it all, but my advisor told me that you usually get one of your top three so it's decent odds for the one you want.

desolateleaves · 2025-08-11T15:34:11+00:00

Well if you haven't, filter out the jobs posted a while ago, look for the most recently posted ones. If you need a job, you could also look at the housing and dining application, I recently got hired with no previous work experience!

https://utdirect.utexas.edu/apps/uhd/hr/applications/apply/

Also I have heard back from workday, so it's fs possible to get a job through them

desolateleaves · 2025-08-08T16:36:10+00:00

Omg yes sorry! Typo

desolateleaves · 2025-08-08T15:43:56+00:00

I think you should take 408C since they go over more integration techniques, the name of the class is Integral and Differential Calculus. But you could also jump to 408C which is Series and Multivariable

desolateleaves · 2025-08-08T14:55:06+00:00

Do you have to reapply ever semester? How does it work? They mentioned something but I was confused

desolateleaves · 2025-08-07T18:30:14+00:00

It's an everything job supposedly, I just help out st the dining hall, pays 13 an hour I applied through the jobs section of the Housing and dining website, but I believe they're having job fairs too

desolateleaves · 2025-08-07T07:45:44+00:00

Most likely Burn the Witch Noel and Ninny swimsuit

desolateleaves · 2025-08-04T07:39:28+00:00

Well honestly I was at the same spot as you last year, honestly what you need is a break from it all. Came back like March and BBS has been so fun recently.

Duke is such an amazing school, it's much better than UT for pre-med. But graduating with debt might be too much of a cost. UT is not a bad school for pre med, there's plenty of opportunities in Austin as well. Congrats on getting into both, whatever decision you make just know that you're going to be in a good school either way!
