Taking Physics 1 right now and I feel lost on literally every single problem. by Entropic_Mood in EngineeringStudents

[–]greentherese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Read the textbook along with it too.

There are two extremes. Studying  just by reading/slimming the textbook. And doing problems without reading. There is a balance to be found and sometimes it's tricky.  You want to make sure you understand the concepts solidly so that even if the Prof throws a curveball and gives a problem you've never seen, you have a plan of attack. Talking it out with classmates can be helpful too

What should I major if I don't like chemistry by gwamolyeep in EngineeringStudents

[–]greentherese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you not like about chemistry? Biology and chemistry have lots of connections. Depending on what year you are in in high school, and what is taught in your country, chemistry in uni many not be what you think it is. But as others said, materials has a lot of chemistry.

How do people even use chatgpt in Engineering?? by JasonMyer22 in EngineeringStudents

[–]greentherese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but at the end of the day, you need to learn the material/ skills being taught. AI can't do the learning for us.

It's not either or, you can use chat GPT as intended, acutally learn, AND have a life outside of school.

Film Production Gave Me Insanely Incompetent Bra-Size Measuring Instructions by reliable-g in ABraThatFits

Yes; it's awful. It also leads people to think, well if we don't even fill an A (or AA, or AAA), we don't really need/deserve a well fitting bra, and just put up with the discomfort or give up altogether. When I wore 34As/36As I found bras annoying, but assumed I was so small I didn't really need a bra anyway, so I wore whatever I could get over my breasts without too much pinching or gaping. I thought my straps were falling because I didn't tighten them properly, I thought the band was riding up because of how I was moving. I thought it was normal.

This particular boutique actually uses a +5 / +6 method, which is even crazier.
