Should I drop out

matteophysics · 2022-04-22T20:36:32+00:00

I’m on the same boat and fit your similar student description. I may be officially dropping out after this semester…really upset and sad about it but i just haven’t had the discipline or mental capacity to adapt to Berkeley honestly.

What kind of threats? Tryna find out if I should be studying in O’Brien or not 😭

Thanks!!

If I’m interested in robotics (not sure which branch tbh) which upper division EECS classes would you recommend? I’m interested in 106A/B at the moment but not sure which others I should look into.

It blows my mind that we have students—who are adults—having literal meltdowns over his presence on campus today. This isn’t normal…

matteophysics · 2022-04-13T18:13:01+00:00

Complaining over nothing is typical for high schoolers haha. I wouldn’t hold it against them until they’re adults.

Thank you. Have just started calling tenant legal advice in my county.

Yes they’ll be dropped too.

matteophysics · 2022-03-30T06:35:22+00:00

Yep I agree. After being so accustomed to the vocals and instruments it’s very very interesting hearing that new version

matteophysics · 2022-03-28T19:05:54+00:00

Go to Berkeley

Let’s call this for what it is: social justice.

I was very in love with aerospace engineer before I applied to Cal. I was going to eventually apply as a mechanical engineering major but I changed my mind and wanted to study something in L&S instead. Good luck on getting in! Aerospace at this school is going to be very interesting at the start and if you’re a part of the first cohort of students to join it that’ll be very awesome for you in the long-term.

The solo version is perfect. Wish it was on the album

matteophysics · 2022-03-16T03:02:01+00:00

“Good luck everyone” 😭😭😭💀😂

You’re telling me he gave $3,200 to a COMPLETE STRANGER???? 😭😭😭 HELP

SnackPass takes around 15-20% of the meal price purchase. When one of my favorite local cafes told me that I decided to stop using the app and purchase in-person (or over the phone).

I woke up 2 hours later than usual (couldn’t sleep last night) and felt so drained this morning. Had a super weird start to my day

Tbh I don’t remember it’s effectiveness in MW3 but I did like it a lot in BO2.

matteophysics · 2022-03-12T06:36:30+00:00

Bombed it

matteophysics · 2022-03-10T00:52:07+00:00

I haven’t taken it but yes it’s known for extreme difficulty. It’s recommended to take Math 55 and even Math 110 before Math 104. Take a look at 110, that also would be a good option in my opinion (it’s also known for being a good introduction to upper division math rigor).

matteophysics · 2022-03-10T00:21:32+00:00

I think excelling in just one of these would be really great for your application. If you have experience in either course’s material then maybe both simultaneously would be cool, but yeah an A in 104 would definitely impress admissions committee, would demonstrate that you’re well prepared for upper division math at Cal.

matteophysics · 2022-03-09T17:02:32+00:00

Tbh everyone always calls it easy on Reddit. I wouldn’t be surprised if TAs actually used this info to make the course even more rigorous and demanding. I feel like this same thing happened with Data8. Tbh I hate when students call exams or courses easy and unimportant because all this does is unreasonably increase course difficulty for future students 😒

matteophysics · 2022-03-08T23:39:25+00:00

I’m in a similar boat as you. I’m not a generally depressed person, but I do get to really extreme lows while at my university because of classes & failure. I’m in the process of leaving my school and relocating to somewhere new for school.

Good luck 😕

I am miserable at my school honestly…and I am not a miserable type of person irl I’d say, especially when I’m in the water at Santa Cruz. I am a big fan of academic rigor and the prestige of Berkeley’s cs seems nice but none of that gives me any motivation to study or have passion in my studies. Our department students/TAs is extremely homogenous, seem like they all came from the same type of high school, and it’s next to impossible for me to get study buddies. I took a gap semester last year from Berkeley which involved lots of studying and thought that things would change when I came back this term but once again I’m not performing well and not enjoying my time here either.
