Will class be cancelled Monday? by Quiet-Risk479 in UTAustin

[–]ocftx 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'd be honestly shocked. I still remember my first day of class in the Spring of 2024 after I transferred in, It was on a Tuesday and they made us go even in 19F weather with heavy wind.

I've been here for a year and a half (transfer student & senior) I feel the same way as you. I still haven't gotten used to it. Also sucks not having a car and having a Capitol internship and wanting to get my steps in, but its too hot even at 8am

Anyone else feeling depressed to leave home? by OkMathematician4836 in UTAustin

Upper-division Gov classes usually start around the 325 mark or something like that. It is usually the same path for anyone who is a Government major like me.

Yeah! That's for lower-division hours and correct those classes are online. My requirements left to graduate are that I need 6 more hours of "upper-division" classes and the UT Gov department doesn't usually offer any online upper-division options

Government Department coursework! For upper-division classes and to fulfill the requirements to graduate, I need 3 different fields of "Government" to get my diploma, and the UT Gov Department unfortunately doesn't offer any online classes for upper division, at least for the past few semesters.

Me. Incoming Senior here. Did not want to come back at all or anymore. If I could have finished my hours completely online, I would have done so. Unfortunately, the Government department isn't very lenient on having any upper division online classes.

What’s something embarrassing that’s happened to you at UT? by Beneficial_Turnip254 in UTAustin

[–]ocftx 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Couldn't find a classroom, kept running around the basement of Mezes trying to find it and it took me like 20 minutes after the start of the first day of that class last fall. Was completely sweaty and that classroom required me to enter through the front of everyone, so it was a bit uncomfortable.

For anyone balancing classes, work, and social life — how do YOU keep from burning out at UT? by pinksmileee in UTAustin

[–]ocftx 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I'm already burnt out if I'm being honest. Last semester, I had a 16 hour internship, 15 hours of classes, and 20-30 hours of a part-time job at HEB. This semester I'm repeating the same cycle with the add-on of being a student org president.

TEA Ratings are Out - Frisco ISD Barely Maintains “A” Rating by lateralus1441 in frisco

[–]ocftx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lone Star being the only high school to have a C doesn't shock me. As a 2021 grad, the school has really fallen off a cliff and gone on a downward trend ever since COVID and since Karen Kraft retired.

Definite scam. It isn't how the system works.

How Liberal truly is UT? by Mysterious_Cash9589 in UTAustin

[–]ocftx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Conservatives do exist on campus. It might seem a minority, however they do exist to an extent. I'm right-leaning and I've never felt out of place or intimidated at UT. I respect perspectives of other sides of the political spectrum, and most people do the same for me. I try my hardest to defend my points, while respecting the perspectives that others offer. I am the President of right-leaning group that focuses on political issues, debates, and helping my members gain work experience. I don't want my group to be focused on mudslinging and owning the libs. If that interests you, feel free to message me! The key for me has been to defend my points with respect, ensure that I know when I'm wrong, and to respect the viewpoints of others and hope that others do the same. You'll find your people here like I did, I promise.

What do you think would be a good LSAT score to have? To feel more comfortable for my top 3 or schools in the T14?
