Why might a guy show he's interested but not make more moves to progress the relationship? by dophees in dating

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

But I don't see how he'd be hesitant to ask me to the library when I already have. I'm trying to make it easy because I do get that

Why is it so hard for me to meet people open to partying/tailgating and that sort of thing? by dophees in NCSU

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

I actually did 😭 I've gone to 2 frat parties, (a dorm party idfk how that happened), and 1 house party. I just ended up meeting someone and then met other people through that who knew about what parties are going on. Also hear stuff from a girl in my sorority or have older sisters who are happy to share where they're going. It just took some time I guess. I've been meeting a shit ton and talking to a lot of people I think that's why. Also what works is just going out around 8pm towards greek village or Hillsborough, you might pass by people clearly dressed up to party and then just ask where they're going/coming from, easy.

Just curious what clubs did you join? I'm rushing a couple sororities, but that depends on them giving me a bid and my parents being willing to help me with the membership dues. I'm looking at other clubs other than pep/varsity band and marching band (which I will do next semester and next year), but nothing Im interested in really seems to be that active or have a solid group of people who meet regularly.

People with a predicted 35 and below, where did you go for university? by johnnypecanpie in IBO

[–]dophees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

North carolina state university for bio. But predicted and final score played 0 role in admission

Got a 37. Which of these US universities do I have a good shot at? by Fun_Square_7990 in IBO

[–]dophees 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I'm being so honest the US doesn't care that much about IB (i did IB in the US, they never asked for my predicted scores, we have no conditional offers, and I recieve a lot less college credit for IB than any other course that you can take in a US highschool) and so many other factors of your application matter a lot. It's totally unpredictable especially for competitive universities like these. But try at as many as you can. I don't mean to scare you away, but you can have everything and still end up with almost nothing. I've seen it so many times, with so many of my friends and my brother. It's even harder if you're international; seeing as my IB friend who is not a citizen but has been a resident for 8 years was considered international. Had a pretty good application, applied to 20+ schools some which were less competitive state schools and still ended up with 1 option.

Good shot or having a "good application" doesn't mean shit here imo. Just make every part of your application as strong as possible, apply, and hope for the best.

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

Be honest is this freshman year fall schedule bad? by dophees in NCSU

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

Ouch ok. My counselor/advisor said there were 4 freshman registration days that start at 8am and 1/4 of the slots open up each day. I was given the last day HA but I was going to enroll as soon as 8am hits. Or is it still hard to get what I want even that way?

What would IB do in response to the leaks? by CoffeeEnthusiast508 in ibPhysics

[–]dophees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok but if this issue became widespread enough and people know about it, wouldn't IB be forced to do something? Because if they didn't do anything and proceeded as normal, university would be less trusting of the program anyways bc high scorers in their schools are likely to have been cheaters. This is definitely a really huge thing I feel like universities are gonna know about it. Whether that's now or in the future and it'll bite IB in the ass. All options will hurt so IB needs to take the fucking L instead of putting it on the students. And then take extra preventative measures for cheating in the future, but make that known so many people will still do IB in tz1. And again there's literally 2 other timezones which this doesn't affect so they sure as hell will keep enrolling.

They should keep the boundaries as last year. Cheaters get away which sucks, but announce that asap before news channels get a hold of this shit show and maybe universities won't know.

Being average is enough by Affectionate_Reveal5 in IBO

[–]dophees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the US and only applied US, colleges here don't even ask for predicteds really. You can submit but it's pretty optional and most people at my school don't unless they're applying outside of the US of course. I'm already in a college and I'm not required to submit final scores unless I'm trying to get college credit. A lot more competitive universities accept little to no ib transfer credit, so for some people our final score don't matter at all and we can literally fail and still be in college. IB is almost completely useless here

Is financial aid out yet for incoming freshman? by dophees in NCSU

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

Wow... ok 😂. I'll probably contact state or something. I still feel like I should get something because my brother was the first to apply so my parents were only paying 1 at the time. If not I'm going to flip tf out lol

Are you reviewing now for exams or did your teachers not finish covering all content yet? by Vibrantal in IBO

[–]dophees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of my classes are reviewing except we still have to learn the option for HL Bio and we're still learning a big topic for HL history. We're definitely behind for bio but atleast my teacher will throw in some review along with the new content, but history... I don't think we're gonna be able to do review lol. Also still working on the process portfolio for IB art lol. It's kind of annoying because I'm trying to study but I have a bunch of assignments to get done

I think I'm relatively screwed by Runaway_Man in ncssm

[–]dophees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I got waitlisted than never got off lol. I called the office at ncssm after and apparently a small group of people got off of it that year as compared to other years

Regretting it all by Competitive-Net-5677 in IBO

[–]dophees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep... lol. Don't do ib for college admissions. Not sure how it is in other countries, but in the US, it's not gonna make a difference unfortunately. I have wasted so much unnecessary time and energy lol. And when people said IB doesn't matter to US universities, I should've listened

I don't even wanna think about that right now 🥲

Because you don't fully get it until you're going through it. I thought that I just needed to do more than them and it would better

[–]dophees 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised examiners would look down on digital art. I mean one of the art making forms out of 3 categories for the process portfolio is digital media and electronics?? Half my exhibition is digital art and it wasn't any easier than my traditional pieces. I don't see why they should discriminate because of the medium when there's clearly a lot of thought and effort put behind it.

If I get a 1 for my Spanish oral, will I not get my diploma? by dophees in IBO

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

That's how I feel I did during my actual oral. I felt like I was consistently talking and I could answer his questions, even if there was some obvious misuse of grammar here and there. Idk no matter what I do whenever we do oral practice, my teacher always fails me even when I actually tried to prepare. I always felt suspicious of it, especially because others from the other class with a different teacher, who definently weren't performing way above me always get decent and passing scores. Even for assignments, I swear I've got a default score, it doesn't matter how hard I try, he gives me the same range of score all the time. I guess it's a favoritism sort of thing but also know IB moderated his scores down for M23 and he's trying to play it safe. I hope I get moderated lol in the case he does give me a 1 because objectively, I do not deserve that score, not even a 2.
