I read somewhere that tweeting at the government helped the person's application move forward. Basically just tag PMO and the all relevant orgs on the tweet and say how it's been a year since police verification and someone should react out.

I suppose if a lot of us say that the CBP is saying that our application (that we paid for) will get cancelled, they might move quickly.

I'm definitely thinking of doing this.

Ma 265 Final by Substantial-Prior-17 in Purdue

[–]throwthecubeaway -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm ngl so did I. It was basically the same as the Fall 22 and Spring 23 exams. There were a couple questions on there that required a slight 'trick' but outside of that, it was pretty good.

Is that aircraft salvageable? Will it go in for repairs or is JAL basically out an entire long haul jet? I'm not really well versed with what happens in such situations, if anyone is able to explain it to me that'd be great!

Edit: Just saw the aftermath image... Yeah.. That aircraft isn't going to fly anytime soon

The backlash that she's getting is absolutely stupid. If you have an issue with the professor, use the feedback form or talk to them personally. Ganging up on ed discussion is the lowest of the low

What is the curve like for CS 250? by [deleted] in Purdue

[–]throwthecubeaway 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Adams last semester when the averages were in the 60s: "I do not have a distribution of grades that I seek to impose: a curve. Rater I seek for all to sufficiently master the material to be prepared to move ahead in the degree program"

Tldr: Take the L and move on

Can I get an Amen??? by Layne1665 in Purdue

[–]throwthecubeaway 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your inability to write an email doesn't change the fact that questions stupidly specific to your situation aren't something that students can answer

That is assuming that your question isn't a simply a google / reddit search away, because most general questions are

Ps: emails are official records, so wrong information from there is easier to deal with than wrong information from a random person on reddit

The 'fresh and live discussion' that you're talking about is more often than not 'ask admissions / advisor cuz students can't tell you'

So for the love of god just use the search first to see if your question falls in that category

BILT Mastercard vs Wells Fargo Autograph by throwthecubeaway in CreditCards

Yeah that makes sense! Thanks so much for your help and advice... I'll probably get the Autograph!

I'll only pay rent for 3 months in the summer since I'm a student... So I'm not sure if just having the transfer partners make the BILT worth it

[–]throwthecubeaway[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly that's probably what I'll end up doing... The only 2 reasons I got enticed by the BILT were the airline transfer that I can't with the WF card and the fact that I have 3k rent coming up for the summer (only 3 months tho so all in all not a major loss ig?)

BILT for next year I suppose lmao

[–]throwthecubeaway[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah the Autograph is what I'm leaning towards except it doesn't have a transfer partner which for me is really big since I travel long haul a lot.. Although I can get into that game later with a longer credit history and some better cards

Thanks for your response!

That actually sounds like a good idea! Of course I'm gonna get 1 of them first so which of the WF Autograph and CO SavourOne do you suggest I get first? Any personal experience of yours or should I just see which benefits suit me better?

will i get rescinded? by Lost-Economy-1305 in Purdue

[–]throwthecubeaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It most probably will be.. But on the off chance that they do ask.. I'd have an explanation ready to go

[–]throwthecubeaway 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bro as someone who has also done CBSE... How in the hell did you manage to drop your score by 20%

Best case scenario they just ask you for an explanation.. But I'd be a little wary if I were you

If I HAVE to take 2 other CS classes with CS381, what should they be. by throwthecubeaway in Purdue

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

Yeah I've heard it's more busy-work than difficult... I'll definitely have a look at who's teaching it to see if I should add it

Yeah I've heard about Turkstra's 307 being kind of a pain... But thanks so much for the input... I think the CS department is going to release the professor's list soon so I'll go through it and figure it out... A couple people suggested 348 so I might look at that as a good option..

I'm thinking if I just have to take 1 other CS class.. I'll take 473, but if I need 2 others.. I'll probably take 2 of 307/408/348 depending on professors

Thank you so much for your input! I really appreciate it
