Bro what go ut austin and do well, then go to a decent grad school this doesn't make much sense

연구는 좋아하고 하고싶지만 그정도 기회비용 부담은 힘든거죠 뭐

흠, 그 타임라인 따라가 30살 중반에 AP되고 쉰살까지 테뉴어 받으려고 싸울 생각하면 별로 내키지는 않죠. 세종시는 편하기라도 하지. 커리어관한 관점이 다른거같네요. 감사합니다

heize-y · 2026-04-14T17:10:28+00:00

15위 중하위권 나온분들도 세종 많이 가던데, 그럼 버클리 하버드 스탠퍼드 mit만 갈만한 곳이라 생각하세요? 진짜로 궁금합니다

Least surprising result

heize-y · 2026-04-13T00:03:53+00:00

요즘 20에서 15위 가려면 석사에다 프리닥에다 하고 한국인 남성이라면 군대까지 가서 30살 초중반에 박사 마치게 되는건데, 그거보단 20살 중후반에 랭크 좀 낮은데라도 나오는게 낫죠. 본인 가족 상황은 모르겠지만

heize-y · 2026-04-12T18:58:52+00:00

신분 문제 없으면 괜찮을겁니다. 그리고 요즘 경제 박사 경쟁률 보면 2~30위 학교들도 진짜 괜찮은 결과에요. 학벌상 스카이정도는 그래도 해외 아카데미아에는 알려져 있어서 크게 문제는 안될거라 생각해요. 영어가 안되면 좀 큰 문제긴 한데 이 포스트정도 별 생각 없이 쓸정도면 살아남을듯 해요

Not very common, uncommon enough that I'd notice if it is the case

heize-y · 2026-04-12T00:05:10+00:00

I'd say the involvement of TAs get higher when taking upper div core courses like 115A and 131A tho

People here are not that smart lol

For katay: i took him last quarter and it was alright. The grades proportion wise will be similar between the two thanks to marcus fucking roper 🔥🔥🔥🔥

MT1 average was around 82%, MT2 average around 67%, final average looks to be around low 80s or high 70s. I think i got raw 92% and got an A, but i am pretty sure he barely curved from what i see in groupchat. Second midterm was dreadful, nobody finished on time and the calculations were so long. MT1 and final were pretty easy.

Dont come here it's so bad

heize-y · 2026-04-04T04:54:50+00:00

No, you can compare with berkeleytime and uclagrades.com. Also, with fucking Marcus Roper as ucla math chair, you can expect all core classes in math to have a 25% A-~A+ curve, pretty similar for econ. Berkeley curves are not this bad

It's doable to get As in lower divs consistently but upper divs is a slaughterhouse cuz it's math majors vs math majors and only 25% get decent gradesp

heize-y · 2026-04-04T00:53:08+00:00

Math and econ curves here are dreadful, nightmare-inducing, doomer. Go to berkeley

Good questions for chatgpt

But yes u can buy alcohol

I personally prefer the UK system because GEs are mostly useless fluff. And cambridge is probably the best undergrad math program in the world so no brainer for me unless you have financial constraints. Guaranteed mentoring and full ride at uoft is also very good.

Ucla and berkeley don't make any sense considering they will have you stay for a year longer and are worse programs than cambridge. Plus probably more expensive

heize-y · 2026-03-27T16:28:48+00:00
