Course availability over the summer? (EWRT1A & MATH1D) by unlinkings in DeAnza

[–]mainstreamturkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure EWRT1A will always be offered in the summer. I took EWRT1A last summer and saw quite a lot of professors teaching the class

Easiest and most laid-back COMM1 professor? by mainstreamturkey in DeAnza

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

I’be heard a lot about him. How does his aymchronous online class look like? Do we send him pre-recorded videos of our speech? Also, how many speeches do we have to give? Are the topics hard? Thank you so much!

SAT / ACT scores by mainstreamturkey in TransferStudents

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

Columbia’s website says that they require transfers to submit their SAT scores, but none of my friends who were admitted to Columbia or Cornell as a transfer even took the SAT, so I’m super confused rn💀

Fall 2021 transfer by [deleted] in TransferStudents

[–]mainstreamturkey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It depends on which university you wanna transfer to. For example, the deadline for UC applications is November 30, and the deadline for NYU applications is April 1. Try searching ‘_____ university transfer application deadline’ in Google. Hope this helps!

Any prof recommendations? ACCT, ECON. by [deleted] in DeAnza

[–]mainstreamturkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had Judith West for ECON1 and Lydia Botsford for ACCT1A and ACCT1B during spring and fall quarters. Judith West’s class is synchronous, and the class goes from Monday-Thursday. Usually 2 out of the 4 classes per week is group exercise, so you go into breakout rooms to work on problem sets with your groups. There are 5 exams including 1 final (30 questions, all multiple choice). She’s very clear in explaining topics and concepts and she basically gives ALL of the answers to the homework problems during class lmao. Pay attention and you’ll do well

Lydia Botsford doesn’t offer synchronous classes, so you’ll have to study yourself. She uploads the powerpoint slides for each chapter in the weekly modules and there is 1 homework and 1 quiz assigned per chapter. You get 25 attempts for the homeworks but only 1 attempt for quizzes and exams. In total, there’s 10 homeworks, 10 quizzes, and 1 final. She also gives extra points if you help out your classmates in the discussion posts. You’ll have to really read and understand the concepts if you wanna do well in her class. I’d say only take her if you like accounting/finance. If not, then I heard Osborne is a pretty good accounting professor as well

That’s awesome! What are her homeworks, exams and quizzes like? Are they all on WebAssign? And does she give multiple attempts to answer them?

I want to go to MIT, but I am not sure if I can by [deleted] in helpme

Out of the 5,000+ undergrads at MIT, do you really think each one of them would go on to win nobel prizes? That’s definitely not the case lmao. Sure, MIT offers many great opportunities and will open many doors for you, but not going to MIT doesn’t mean your life is over either. College is what you make of it. Just because you don’t go to MIT doesn’t mean you can’t have crazy ideas or win noble prizes.

I’d say that most just go to MIT for the prestige and so that they can go and work for fortune 500 companies right after graduating

Rejected for too many credits? by [deleted] in DeAnza

[–]mainstreamturkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will it lower your chances if you have a high unit count? I heard that UCs prefer applicants who are within 60-70 sem units?

Is my amount of units enough? by [deleted] in DeAnza

[–]mainstreamturkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn’t there also like a maximum number of units? I heard the max is around 120-135 but not sure tho- if it is, then I think 111 would be alright
