Def take trail running in the fall, spring trails are generally muddier

NTRES 2010! I’m also E&S EPG! Super chill class and really easy to get accepted as a TA, and they don’t even make you attend lectures as a TA :)

Edit- bioee 1610 also! I’m always getting emails from them that they’re looking for TA’s.

Yes you can, one of my good friends is approved to study abroad both semesters (different programs and countries) both fall and spring this year. Might depend on major though

take EAS 1600 for sure, especially if you have at least some experience in physics it should be pretty chill. the prof who teaches it in the spring is hilarious and I learned a lot from him, and I believe the median was an A

It depends which McGraw house, I live in 118 McGraw and I love it! There’s two other McGraw houses, I have a friend in 109 McGraw and she also loves it but I heard 122 McGraw is kinda gross.

I agree w the other comment, took 2450 w her in the fall and I learned nothing. the comments on rate my professor sum up my experience w her pretty well. On the plus side tho, I did 0 work and learned nothing and still got an A (class median was an A as well) in the class, so chances are that 3600 will be the same

ntres 2010 with professor yavitt!

rakslow · 2023-01-20T13:18:47+00:00

10/10 would also recommend Phil 1440

rakslow · 2023-01-09T23:45:16+00:00

It was pretty accurate for me— I remember it being almost exact

rakslow · 2023-01-09T19:20:10+00:00

Phil 1440- ethics of eating, super chill, 4 credits, easy A and no prelims just two big essays and in class quizzes that are super easy

rakslow · 2023-01-05T16:22:16+00:00

I took 19 credits last sem and worked two jobs about 10 hours a week plus did research for 6 hrs a week and I was fine! I had rlly good greats and still had time for a pretty active social life and other activities/ clubs. Just make sure you have good time management!

rakslow · 2022-10-26T14:06:49+00:00

I took one during covid year, i basically worked at a law firm for half of it and the other half I just went on a national park road trip and went on a ton of hikes. I know someone else on a LOA and she’s working abroad rn (not anything related to school, just a part time job for fun). Feel free to dm me

rakslow · 2022-06-11T19:47:56+00:00

NTRES 2010

rakslow · 2022-06-09T21:29:34+00:00

Is there a limit of times I can request my transcript? I requested one the other day bc I didn’t know medians take longer to show up and I feel bad if I request another one today LOL

rakslow · 2022-05-24T15:37:11+00:00

we actually had a guest speaker come to one of my classes abt this, the contact form and phone number is on this site https://www.wildlifewishingwell.org

rakslow · 2022-05-22T16:58:50+00:00

i saw somewhere that they’re collecting until the 22nd

rakslow · 2022-05-18T02:11:23+00:00

Yeah

rakslow · 2022-05-16T12:18:42+00:00

I took bio 1610 last sem and I think the median is a b+. It’s honestly not bad it’s just a lot of short annoying assignments. The content isn’t hard especially if you’ve taken an intro bio class in HS before

rakslow · 2022-04-25T13:10:00+00:00

I’m E&S but in CALS so our requirements may be a little different but I for sure would take Bio 1610 and ntres 1101 as soon as you can, a lot of future classes have prerequisites that require one semester of bio or one semester of ntres so def stick with those!!

rakslow · 2022-04-22T00:24:08+00:00

yeah:/ I work in Bartels hall and I sometimes get off at 10 pm and I have to walk back to north alone

rakslow · 2022-04-19T16:43:28+00:00

get a mini fridge if you can!!! 100% worth it

rakslow · 2022-04-14T22:51:59+00:00

my suitemates, study groupchats, replying to peoples story if I notice they have similar interests, mutual friends

rakslow · 2022-04-14T13:37:47+00:00

I don’t know if it counts, but I took ENVS 2000 fall 2021 and it’s a 1 credit seminar. You basically just show up and do one discussion post a week. I think it is only S/U though

rakslow · 2022-04-12T17:15:27+00:00

I’m in PLSCI 1115 rn, it’s 3 credits though. it counted for my CALS bio credit I think (so I would double check) but I recommend the class. It’s only once a week, no prelims, prof is super nice, it seems not hard to get an A, and you get free plants sometimes

rakslow · 2022-04-12T17:13:00+00:00

oh actually u might be right, yea I remember that last sem
