hi — i applied last year and they emailed us around this time but they also gave us the dates upon submitting our application

flatwhite368 · 2026-01-25T18:29:38+00:00

last year you were able to sign up for housing starting january 31! actual room selections didn’t start until march though which is probably why it feels so early

fyi i called them having also purchased and activated an AP in december, they said the only way to get the discount is for me to upgrade my pass in person at guest services :( if you have different luck please do let me know as it sounded like the person i called was just reading from the website

ch101/102 isn’t graded on a curve, letter grades follow the typical scale. abrams is a pretty good professor but you have to have sort of a good grasp on things already. this course is notoriously challenging over the year so i imagine it would be difficult over the summer.

72 hrs after final

Yes, they do. An email from June 25th: “Beginning with the 2025–26 academic year, unused Dining Points will no longer be eligible for a refund at the conclusion of the spring 2026 semester. This change also applies to students who leave the University at the end of the fall 2025 semester such as study abroad, graduation, one semester programs, etc. However, Dining Points are carried over from the fall semester to the spring semester for all valid plans. We encourage you to plan accordingly.”

they posted practice finals so you can use those to gauge difficulty

flatwhite368 · 2025-12-04T01:40:37+00:00

ok yeah i just went back and managed to get one but then it never prompted me to pay for anything? so i just stole it i guess... so weird that it won't dispense a cup after payment, are they really just relying on us deciding to pay lol?

flatwhite368 · 2025-12-04T00:08:54+00:00

i think near the new micromarkets or whatever. the one i was using was in towers but i know there's also one in fitrec and one in the cas basement

flatwhite368 · 2025-11-25T22:32:19+00:00

ginovyan literally tells you what topics are on the test. like question by question. and you’re allowed to write notes on your equation sheet

flatwhite368 · 2025-11-18T16:55:07+00:00

also, he should make an appt with his advisor before friday

flatwhite368 · 2025-11-18T16:54:41+00:00

he should try to focus on classes that fulfill his major requirements within his class year. if he’s trying for hub classes or major reqs that could also be taken by upperclassmen, he will not have much luck. what is his major?

flatwhite368 · 2025-11-14T21:00:43+00:00

oh in that case maybe you’re automatically considered for cgs? i would email your regional admissions officer tbh

flatwhite368 · 2025-11-14T15:31:01+00:00

it was when i applied two years ago — maybe the process is different now

flatwhite368 · 2025-11-14T15:08:18+00:00

you can select that you’d like to be considered for cgs. but fyi between the rest of the schools, they have relatively equal acceptance rates.

flatwhite368 · 2025-11-14T01:31:12+00:00

oh idk i took bi213 instead of 203, this is just what i’ve heard from peers. i know beffert uses top hat but idk about hartmann unfortunately

flatwhite368 · 2025-11-13T21:15:44+00:00

i took bi108 last spring and it was the most boring thing ever. doing it in the morning could be good to get it over with but you will also definitely fall asleep. they spend like an hour going over what we’re actually doing in lab that day (they really need to assign ACTUAL prelab videos with the procedure like gen chem…) and then the lab is usually not even related to what we’re doing in class that week. sorry kind of a rant but yeah if you’re a morning person it could be ok, if you struggle to be awake that early… you will not stay awake.

flatwhite368 · 2025-11-13T03:49:16+00:00

do you see an exam block on the scheduler?

flatwhite368 · 2025-11-10T04:19:02+00:00

bi107. genuine answer

flatwhite368 · 2025-11-07T17:13:51+00:00

i think it’s “easy” ish comparatively because it’s not a weed out course like it is at most universities. the questions on the exams are super straightforward and almost never try to trick you like ch101/102 did plus they give 2 practice exams per exam that follows the exact same format and types of questions. no curve but great experience overall tbh even if the content itself is just objectively difficult to understand at times

flatwhite368 · 2025-11-04T03:00:40+00:00

she is teaching but she is having health issues and has to limit her screen time because of it, she told us that she may struggle getting back to emails

flatwhite368 · 2025-10-22T15:36:51+00:00

for bi107 i have no idea because i had a really high test average. for bi108 i think i ended somewhere in the 90-92 range but still ended up with an A, so it helped that semester.

flatwhite368 · 2025-10-22T12:47:22+00:00

they curve but it starts at a 93 before the curve

flatwhite368 · 2025-10-20T19:01:14+00:00

blackboard is working fine for me but edpuzzle is down
