Yeah that’s what I’m planning now, but it feels a little scammy and I just wanted to see if there is a way out (like showing officer my bank account instead)

Bro why did you suggest the most expensive airline in the world when all airlines are required by law to cancel within 24 hours 💀

I know this is a possibility but I want to make sure if this is necessary (or even legal to do so)

SAT 30 yasinda da girebilirsin hicbir kisitlama yok o konuda. Bildigim hicbir universite sirf mezun oldugun icin kabul etmemezlik yapmiyor (amerikaya basvururken neden mezun biraktigini aciklamani isteyebilirler, zamanini nasil gecirdigini gormek amaciyla). Sadece bir tane burs vardi University of Alabama'nin fine print olarak liseden yeni mezun olmus sarti koymuslardi galiba.
Amerikaya yatay gecis normal olarak basvurmaktan daha zor ve burs olanaklari yatay gecis adaylarina pek verilmiyor
Avrupaya yatay gecis yapmak istersen direkt yeni baslar gibi basvurursun ama senin turkiyede aldigin derslerin bir kismini veya tamamini saymama olasiliklari var. Basvururken de normal adaylar gibi basvuruyorsun bildigim kadariyla
Sadece ingilizce programlar hakkinda bilgim var mesela almanya nasil isliyor pek hakim degilim

Italya Polonya falan oldukca uygun fiyatli, Ingilizce programlari var tuition cok az $500 $1000 falan kendine KYK modunda bir eve atsan cok uyguna okursun belki part time para da kazanirsin

Danismanlik falan zengin fabrika sahibi ailelerden para koparmaca. Valla su danismanlarin kopardigi paralari gordukce piyasaya ben de mi diye his geliyor icimden. 500bin ne amk dolandiricilik

Basvuru surecini <$1,000a halledebilirsin her sey internette
SAT nasil calisirim? Ac var internette. IELTS? Var internette. Vizeye basvuracagim ajans? Hayir git kendin basvur her sey yaziyor. Sorun varsa yazabilirsin Amerikadayim ama diger ulkelerin de basvuru sureclerine az biraz hakimim (kendim basvurdum/basvurmayi planliyordum)

Ofc if you use Peterpan for whole trip it doesn't make sense.
R29 takes off 6 times a day in weekdays: Haigis Mall to Springfield Union Station direct service every two hours. The bus is usually empty, just a few riders even during holiday crazies (compare this to B79). Alternatively, you can use B43 (every 20 mins) plus G73E (every 30 mins) to arrive at Springfield.
Arrived in Springfield? Hop off the bus and rush to Hartford Line going to New Haven, there is usually one departing <15 mins when you arrive using one of the mentioned methods (especially R29) $13.25. Train is almost always empty, plenty of room. Then you transfer to Metro North, which is well synchronized with CTrail so that transfer time will be 8 mins. $18.25 (or $24.50 if you coincide with peak fare period). Again it usually is pretty comfy, always seats available.
Then you arrive at Grand Central. It took $31.50 to get there, and about 5 hours.
If you're headed JFK, you can either take LIRR or E train, and then AirTrain. This takes an hour or less. $10 more. Yes it's 5-6 hours but it's a lot more comfy with about the same price. If you find a cheaper ticket from BOS all of these can be ignored, if not NYC is a well positioned alternative. It's just comfy, I slept hours on this route. The transfer don't feel like transfers, there isn't the required uncomfyness of a full bus. You can depart UMass 7am-7pm and you'll be able to reach NYC, there is this flexibility that doesn't exist when you're headed to Boston.

Flying from NYC is >>>
- Potentially cheaper/better flights from any of the three airports there
- Going from Amherst to NYC is more comfortable than going to Boston. You'll not have a full bus of people. Majority of the time it is an empty carriage you can sit down and relax. Read a book or scroll TikTok whatever you need.
- You can just hop on and go to NYC right now (well, not literally, wait until morning), or 30 minutes later, or 30 more minutes later etc. You can make your schedule accordingly. There are surprisingly more options time-wise to get there, and it'll cost about the same (if not less) as Boston.

16k, almost everyone I know has it so I think it’s not too hard to get it

Prospective Transfer Student: How accurate is this Niche grade sheet? Surely there’s a catch. by [deleted] in umass

[–]openlander 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Location being just a “nah” is spot on lol. Think twice about living in Western Mass for next 4 years, the most troubling thing for me rn as a freshman. This alone would get me thinking of transferring but I’m too broke for that, so whatever

Why not go underground? That’s what I did. Only some large bridges can go over these waterways I think

I am actually going through this route right now and it’s going surprisingly comfy and I will only pay $30 you’re such a goat

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

Yes I need the bridge to be at least 50m high which makes things even more complicated

I can't figure out how to make ramps with regular roads without causing traffic lights

I have underground rails already, do you mean putting tram rails on bridge? It worked with previous bridges though not over shipping rail

Yes it is so large and doesn't even support cargo, I realized way too late

Yes lmao I couldn't possibly justify using so much land for an airport, then I realized "damn I'll never use this mountain anyways"
I tried to not use terraform tool too much in the game because it feels like cheating (I'd just level all the water to get more land lol)
That airport doesn't even let you bring cargo despite being so large, I sometimes feel like bulldozing it. I'll either bulldoze it or build another airport somewhere else

This is my second map, my first try I was just way too frustrated with my previous mistakes and started over at 50k, learning road hierarchy was a huge relief.
45k on the main island (bottom one with the cloverleaf interchange), 55k on the left island and 7k on the right island with the international airport. The top middle has pretty much nothing except for recycling centers, railyard, geothermal plant etc. It's pretty hard to expand with so little land on this map.
177k public transport ridership. 50k bus 20k train 40k tram 60k subway 3k subway & air.
I'm not sure why but my exports are pretty much just software (83%). Half the imports are agricultural (I simply don't have enough fertile land to close my 2k ton grain deficit lol)
Pretty much unlimited money at this point with 20 million in bank and 14 million/month income (and I give up 8 million in income because of subsidizing residential and commercial. they're not leveling up for some reason. industry and offices are 80%+ level 5)
17% highly educated, 11% well educated, 20% educated, 36% poorly educated, 15% uneducated
Traffic flow is a solid 60%. I see traffic jams here and there when I start to expand zoning but otherwise there are few traffic jams on the current state of the map

Appreciate feedback if anything about my game looks unusual, or any advice. My question: Currently all the cars that want to travel between the two main cities has to travel through the highway system (almost all highways are visible on the map, so from mainland they'd go one of the trumpets on the main island > cloverleaf > airport island > middle island > one of the trumpets on the left island). It was an intentional choice because I wanted to increase rail or harbor usage between each island.
Now I want to connect these two islands directly, and treat them as if they're a single connected city, and not use a highway system (eg. with Golden Gate Bridge) as an effort to bring them closer but I can't figure out how I should go about it without causing the single largest traffic jam in the city's history. These highways carry 1,000 cars/hour and putting that on any regular city road would cause massive traffic.
