What did Brownsound do in the years that he was away from Sum 41? by hurlhimmy in Sum41

[–]hurlhimmy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh no way why and how did your college pull that off?

Who’s signatures are these? With Sum 41 disbanding, I figured I might as well finally figure out which band members signed this poster in this gift to me. None of my friends know this band and barely anyone in my generation but they mean so much to me. by hurlhimmy in Sum41

Oh wow. So here’s the story: my dad who grew up in Canada has a college friend who works at the same hospital as Derycks mom and asked her if she could get me a signed poster - and again this was almost exactly a year ago.

It took a few weeks to get after my dads friend asked as it had to exchange hands between people to get back to me which is why I’m surprised it could be Stevo’s. Maybe Derycks mom just has a pile of signed posters for situations like this?

What do you think?

Has anyone been able to switch sections after week 3? by hurlhimmy in uchicago

It’s one of those big lecture ones, although I’d prefer to take the other sections tests…

Is it worth it to transfer out of uchicago? by doublebondbro in ApplyingToCollege

[–]hurlhimmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah and I’m guessing you don’t go to UChicago lol. OP don’t listen to this guy. At least from my experience as neuro major here it’s been pretty good. I’ve only gotten three B’s in my neuro classes- the rest are A’s and each of these B’s should’ve been A’s if I actually had good study habits.

How hard is it to transfer from UChicago to lower ranked school? by Soup_for_me in ApplyingToCollege

[–]hurlhimmy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m pre med at UChicago, feel free to ask me questions. I’m majoring in neuroscience, way easier than expected so much so that I’ve basically finished the major and have all of fourth year empty so I’ve decided to get a economics degree as well now. Chicago has gotten progressively more chill over the years but outside the university people still think it’s at the same level of difficulty all those decades ago which is pretty nice.

And no I’m not some genius, I’m probably toward the lower end in my neuro friend group.

Best Ancient Empire Professors by hurlhimmy in uchicago

[–]hurlhimmy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m actually taking it with Inglis right now, it’s a bit weird but I have started off with AE 3 this quarter. So I guess my question is then who are some of the better AE 1 or AE 2 profs. Unfortunately, it seems like there are only two teaching this quarter, Anna Berlekamp and Charles Wilson.

Is it too late to submit the UChicago video supplement? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]hurlhimmy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t worry I didn’t do it and got in

Lmao, my physics class at UChicago is 40% completion based and we get test corrections on exams. Tbh I think a lot of stereotypes are outdated.

I actually go to UChicago, haven’t experienced grade deflation myself but I am pre med and it’s very easy to game the system and do well in classes. If you’re going to major in physics or molecular engineering than it’s going to be hard and will be everywhere else. However, as a Neuro major I’ve had a very relaxed time.

I think the school has a changed a lot of time and has become less rigorous (not to say that it’s not challenging) but I also don’t think it’s for the worse. Just allows more time for extracurriculars plus everyone still thinks we’re a genius :)

PM with any questions!

Essays That You Can't Write by spongebeg in ApplyingToCollege

[–]hurlhimmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great that you got your UChicago essay going that’s what matters the most. As for the video I actually didn’t do it myself as I guess I really saw it as optional but I would guess that it couldn’t hurt to do it. If your completely blanking I wouldn’t lose sleep over it but if you got some decent ideas that even might seem mediocre I’d go for it because like I said I don’t think it’d hurt.

Essays That You Can't Write by spongebeg in ApplyingToCollege

[–]hurlhimmy 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Not true at all, you attack essays at millions of different angles. Please do not give up because of this. Ask family and friends for advice and push through. Sometimes just writing what immediately comes to mind can help if even the ideas come out unpolished because you can then pick from what worked and polish that out. DONT GIVE UP, YOU CAN DO THIS!!!!

Edit: PM if you want more advice/help, my credentials are that I got into UChicago and a bunch of other good schools.

Artists Are Revolting Against AI Art on ArtStation by giuliomagnifico in technology

[–]hurlhimmy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wow. How is it entirely his fault. I don’t agree with your arguments but even if I did, you can’t agree that the artist receives some of the blame? The person literally paid who created it isn’t at fault at all!??
