jackiemarie90 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 But be an academic councilor and tell me that my fall semester might be too much work. And that I should switch my dreams on something more achievable. And that I’ll probably fail just by asking me one question after walking in the hour in the sun to find the place. Then I’d probably break down, start cussing at the councilor and start crying like a little bitch. Spoiler Cause I am just a punk soft bitch that cries at everything. I hate it lol. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuggstop Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Sorry that happened but councilors are loser underachievers who don't know shit . Especially not enough about you to tell you that. Do it and if YOU decide its too much, drop before the deadline 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave up, but I'm old. It was too much time. Young people can fight. Punch them in the face with facts. Stare the man down and watch him buckle. Make them eat dirt. I exist in the shadows. Be my blinding light. Terrorize the earth. Make them see what good does. Circle the bad with a nice red marker. Set an example of what people should be, and do not waver. You post enough for me to know you are good. Being good is not easy. Being good is a fight. So fight and try to win.

Lmao well it’s suppose to be academic councilor that looks at your course load. But there was an associate of his berating me that I wasn’t good enough for computer science. And saying, “Oh they will let anyone into these classes” I know it’s usually ok to cry it out. But here in academia they treat it like taboo.

If that dickhole had been in any way correct, you wouldn't have gotten into that school. He is scum who can only feel better about himself by bringing others down.

In addition to getting into the university itself (which is extraordinarily difficult in its own right), you also have to get accepted into some individual programs. Cal has a storied engineering school (my grandpa graduated from there in '30s), so they can be a bit snobby when it come to students applying for individual programs, but that doesn't mean it's impossible for someone as talented as Jackie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a nice enough place, but I'm not sure how competitive the individual schools there are. When you jump from the CSU system to the UC system, the individual schools inside the university are better endowed and tend to have significantly more competition for spots.

I've never followed college sports. I've went to Bulldog football and basketball games a few times and had fun though. For the non-Californians, the Georgia Bulldogs aren't the only Bulldogs, just in case that's confusing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were saying I couldn't handle a math course mixed with a computer science one. Even though it's the only way I will be able to get the minor on time since I do have to start of the beginning of the pathway. But I have been taking precalcus last year just for this and took a python class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is pretty accurate, Steve Woziak went to school and they keep wanting to push that legacy. The engineering school is hella hard to get into, and I'm not even attempting that. This school lets you as major or minor in computer science through their liberal arts college, the one I am accpeted to. But technically the classes are still the same, so they are trying to scare into not taking it. I think it has a lot to do with the fact that a lot of students kinda take these course for fun in the hopes that they are good at it because tech is so prominent here in the bay area.

I would assume it's something similar to where there are classes each school offers to the entire student body that satisfy general education requirements. It's been a long time for me, but I believe that getting into some of those classes still involved some kind of clearance from the counselor that was technically advising me (but I never actually met). I avoided them since I wasn't minoring in anything, but I remember that being a problem for others. I can't imagine what its like now that USC has gotten more and more competitive.

They do have a problem with some people in that major getting into the classes they need to graduate, so some spots are reserved. Since I’m low income, 1st generation and a transfer student I had priority registration to pick my classes. I think it pisses off CS and engineers when a non cs student takes up spots. Kinda like, “well if you wanna take the program so bad you gotta put up with our shit attitude.” I did ask if there was a math test before applying and they said no. So that’s problematic for people who need those classes. For the 1st CS class you need to be taking calculus, but that’s it for the minor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
