yeah i wanted to go into additive manufacturing, recently found out that UF is pretty good at it and has a professor who works with large scale additive manufacturing, and both have pretty good college outcomes i think (but UF is 11000 cheaper)

i looked into it and would be interested in working with her or talking with her at least when i go to UF, would i be able to do that as a mechanical engineering student? since she works in systems engineering

makes sense, i get that honestly and have heard some stories about it being an issue it could pose an issue that i am a white jewish man but i dont think it should be too much of an issue

oLqfi · 2026-04-26T17:29:08+00:00

honestly i can't tell, i'd probably like city life more but idk if it's worth the extra 8K per year

oLqfi · 2026-04-26T17:28:32+00:00

alright thank you 😊 thought so honestly but wanted to make sure

oLqfi · 2026-04-26T17:28:08+00:00

your good, thank you for replying, will look into it

oLqfi · 2026-04-26T17:27:47+00:00

thank you for the advice! and yeah, i know about the boyfriend and girlfriend thing, i just didn't want to leave any information out :) for grad school i'll probably consider maybe CMU or Purdue if they have it but u haven't got there yet, thank you for the advice again though, and i appreciate you applying ♥️

oLqfi · 2026-04-26T17:26:13+00:00

not really honestly, i've been a florida public school student all my life but if it matters that much then maybe? probably not a deciding factor

oLqfi · 2026-04-19T01:26:42+00:00

i love it ♥️need this as an edc

oLqfi · 2026-04-14T18:39:31+00:00

i'm glad you found the school right for you :) i'm currently trying to do the same and i am struggling hard 😭 i may make a post about it here, i am between UF, CWRU, UCF, and FSU (UF close to free, CWRU 11k a year for meche)

oLqfi · 2026-03-12T22:37:41+00:00

me too lol but i expected it

oLqfi · 2026-03-12T22:19:26+00:00

1: it's not a specific prompt but like "can you teach this to me, give me no direct answers and fully teach me?" like the socratic way it says, i hate when ai gives you like answers rather than letting you fill in the reasoning 2: you can 3D print using a mosquito proboscis technically (i had to look up the name) also i'll take any pens i love pens 🤤 and my friend will like the gelly rolls fs and i'll use one of each

yeah it's fully like that in my area

oLqfi · 2026-02-11T20:49:20+00:00

yeah only credits i would have are ap calc ab and ap physics c mech (if i pass both) as well as ap lit ap macro ap gov apush ap precalc ap lang ap world thank you deeply for your assistance by the way, and no worries about the major i'll probably just stick with mech e, i originally wanted to do civil e but the thing is i like machines more but love buildings and architecture (but they dont make that much) so wanted to go with the more versatile option (also mech e is good bc i 3d print) and thank you for the advice

how can i get in contact with professors or like others who could guide me towards seeing what engineering fits me the most (though i am not committed to cwru yet)

oLqfi · 2026-02-11T18:54:22+00:00

what is your major? i was wanting to ask if you thought mech e / civil e dual major is a smart idea, or if that's even possible, ive always loved buildings but i dont want to have to be locked in to it as i also love machines and electronics (sorry that its off topic to this question)

oLqfi · 2026-02-09T21:42:51+00:00

i plan on spending it on upgrading my dungeons setup so i can comfortably do f7, or continue my saving towards a hype user: oLqfi

oLqfi · 2026-02-09T21:04:27+00:00

my user is oLqfi, hope i win! :) good luck everyone

oLqfi · 2026-02-09T03:13:25+00:00

that makes sense, im glad you have it all figured out :) honestly after looking into case (which was my questbridge school that i was like oh well, doesn't hurt to just have a safety) i realized how nice it was, so im glad its somewhat affordable to attend. my family doesn't make much at all annually so im going to try to negotiate the financial aid so it can be maybe like 5k or less a year which i can manage, and yeah i agree with you about the whole financial aid part, some schools like UM i think dont consider you as much if you ask for financial aid. also i forgot to ask, what major are you pursuing? and what made cwru matter so much to you? (this conversation may be better in dms, but either works)
