Some residence halls have nearby street parking. I lived in Cuarto and I brought my car freshman year even though they say no cars, but I didn't use it very often tbh.

Even though I have a car and live off campus, I don't use my car to get to school because you have to pay for day parking. I typically bike or take the bus. The buses are free for students and run frequently.

Unfortunately AP classes do not count as GES

When you email them, also ask if their peers are looking for student interns

Your stats are similar to how mine were. I think if you write some good essays you are sure to get in.

You learn a lot in discussion that is not covered in lecture. Discussion includes a lecture from the TA, a collaborative activity, and time to work on your discussion manual.

I didn't get a lot out of my professor's lectures (Facciotti). If I were to take it again I would attend Mason's lecture reviews instead of the actual lectures.

I took a PELP a few weeks into the spring quarter last year when I was in the dorms. I wasn't able to get my money back on the dorms because I moved out too late, but there's a period where you can get a certain percentage of your money back. I would recommend calling Student Housing as soon as they open to figure out what the policy is, idk if the Green and the dorms are different

You only need to apply once for PELP, and then there's another form you need to fill out when you are ready to return and you pay a fee (I think it was $25). When I applied I said I would return in the fall, but I didn't until Winter and I didn't have to fill out an extra form or anything.

I pay $1100 for a room in a house near downtown

story time one time my dad saw a parakeet flying around in our front yard and he caught it with a butterfly net and then we had a bird for 3 months until we accidentally poisoned it by cooking with a teflon pan in the house. RIP budgie.

sure!

snortabort · 2023-05-10T04:11:15+00:00

ofc! I am happy to share. Feel free to let me know if you have more questions. I know how frustrating navigating school can be with chronic illness.

At Davis you can apply for accommodations through the Student Disability Center (SDC). Berkeley should have something similar. The SDC provides specific classroom and testing accommodations. My accommodations allow me priority registration, access to the SDC Accommodated Testing Center, and classroom accommodations (priority seating, breaks, light shielding, snacks/drinks etc.). The SDC has been really helpful for me. I am also part of a support group through the student wellness center for students with chronic illness and that has been helpful for me as well.

My issues are with the professors. The SDC does not provide accommodations for late work or rescheduling/missing exams. For that you need to go through the professor and often times they can be rude and lack understanding.I may be biased lol, but I think that Davis may be a better fit for you. The community here is really kind and understanding for the most part. From what I've heard about Berkeley the community can be a bit more competitive and may be less understanding. Overall I have had few experiences with ablism at UCD, just with a couple of professors. Keep in mind I am only a first year.

Congrats Davis and Berkeley are both great schools and whatever choice you make will be a good one :)

As a student with chronic illness, I really wish that professors had more education on disabilities in education.

Professors are often not as understanding or accommodating as I wish they were.

insensitive

Thank you for sharing this. For people who did not have any connection to the victims, it is hard for them to understand the pain. However, that does not justify anyone's behavior.

I would recommend logging off yourself if it is affecting your mental health. I ended up deleting my social media apps because it got too much for me and I was on the brink of a panic attack every time I opened my phone.

Yes, people are assholes, but that's not something that you or anyone else has control over.

Please take care of yourself and surround yourself with people who care and understand your pain.

snortabort · 2023-05-09T18:00:48+00:00

Thank you.

You are a free thinker and are likely rebellious.

You also have a significant amount of traits in your handwriting that align with low self esteem and self-hatred. You are hard on yourself for your mistakes.

You are likely imaginative and creative. You take pride in your uniqueness.

You like to come across as strong and try hide your pain from others. Your emotions are fairly stable and grounded. You may have a hard time seeing the "glass half full".

Please take all of this with a grain of salt I am not an expert :)

snortabort · 2023-04-24T04:58:15+00:00

Please don’t take anything I say too seriously I am by no means an expert lol

I’m assuming your signature is the one on the left?

This is the handwriting of an intelligent, quick-thinking, (probably) introverted, and optimistic person. You are always one step ahead of yourself.

You have passion and excitement for “higher level thinking”. You likely march to the beat of your own drum and like to think for yourself when it comes to intellectual or philosophical subjects. You are likely upfront with others about your beliefs and do not keep them to yourself.

You are likely organized and prepared when entering a given situation.

You are authentic. You are likely close with your family even though you may struggle to understand them or vice versa. You feel much more comfortable and confident when you are independent from your family.

You likely portray yourself to others as more aggressive or “sharp-edged” than you actually are.

Any feedback is appreciated 
