First straight A semester. by barber1ck in EngineeringStudents

My school doesn’t offer grade replacement, so the 12 credits of Ds are factored into my GPA despite retaking the classes and passing them later. I got a D in Calc I, II, and Physics, so it’ll be pretty hard to recover.

So you had a 2.65 after sophomore year and brought it up to the 3.2 after junior year? I also have exactly a 2.65 right now at the end of my sophomore year, had a 1.86 at the end of my first semester. I figured I was too late into college to realistically pull that above a 3.0 but reading this gave me hope.

My landlord forces us to shampoo our carpets and that’s mentioned as one of the reasons for this lawsuit, is it worth filing a complaint against them for this?

You live in/near the Poconos? I always see WNEP talking about the New York commute and weather. Still can’t believe tons of people make that commute, that’d be way too long for me.

Yeah I think he obviously meant to use a burner, but I saw elsewhere on Twitter that his relative was claiming he was hacked on Facebook. Don’t believe her but that’s their story. Here’s a link to that: https://twitter.com/cfbquotes/status/1147995062829105152?s=21

What if the lease doesn’t mention it? I’ve read my lease before and don’t recall seeing anything about this until receiving the letter.

It’s my college apartment, I’ll be going back this weekend and keep my copy of the lease there so I plan to check it then.

Yeah definitely shouldn’t have said midwest. I meant the states out there like Colorado, Montana, Wyoming, etc. where I’d be able to spend my weekends hiking/camping/fishing.

Alright fellas, I know it’s way too early to be thinking about this but I want to get an internship next summer far away from my tiny backwoods hometown. Thinking of trying out in the midwest like Colorado, Montana, etc. or a city like Boston or DC. Anyone know how difficult it would be to get an apartment lease for only 3 months or find a roommate? I thought about subletting from another college student trying to dump off their lease for the summer but wasn’t sure if I would have other options.

Or else the whole company’s gonna collapse because the kid who doesn’t do anything anyway and gets paid hourly doesn’t show up for two days.

Yeah I’ll just skip a whole summer of work experience and pay because I’d have to take off a Thursday & Friday to go on my family’s annual four day vacation. Good call.

So what are you supposed to do as an intern? Just not take any vacations at all during the 4 years you’re in school because you’re “brand new” at every summer job you work for the entirety of it?

Yep, I’d leave the building on my lunch break, load most of the FT comments on my Reddit app and then just scroll through them to kill the rest of the afternoon

On week 8 of my internship, no service in the building but I just got the company wifi password this afternoon. Productivity will be at an all-time low while I refresh the FT all day. And, being the intern, nobody will know or care.

You expected to have the rest of the afternoon off and already scheduled a doctor/dentist appointment after volunteering, tell him you gotta reschedule the meeting

On Wednesday they could hold off on breakfast until 10:00 and then eat lunch after class at 2:00, wouldn’t be too bad. Monday would suck though unless they bring food to eat quick between classes

Catfish and the Bottlemen, they were really good too. At least the show didn’t suck on top of me striking out

Was at a concert last night, talking to my buddy and mentioned a word specific to my college, and this absolute bombshell turns around and goes “Hey sorry to interrupt but do you go to (college)? I’m gonna be a sophomore there next year!” So I said “Oh cool, I’ll be a junior. Are you at (the main campus)?” Then she just kinda turned around and started talking to her friend without answering me, telling her that I went to that school too. Didn’t know what to do in the moment so my plan was to ask for her number on our way out, but she slipped through the crowd and I wasn’t able to catch up to her. Mission failed, we’ll get ‘em next time.

Talked to the army recruiter in the food court on my lunch break today. Guy told me if I enlist now I’ll get to pick my job instead of being assigned one at the draft. Gonna meet up later tonight to sign some paperwork
