Ansem Posted May 15, 2016 Author Share Posted May 15, 2016 there are two Pchems at my school, for biochem majors and the regular Pchem for chem majors. was there not a dumbed down life science version of pchem at your school? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxas Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 at my school there's a baby pchem version that non-chem majors and can take, but chem majors have to take the real 6-credit one >_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

claire Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 whats wrong with bio ): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxas Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 I just don't find it as interesting as chemistry. Also I got a C in comparative vertebrate anatomy which slayed my science GPA so I might still be salty about that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 (edited) It's okay I'm useless at Bio too I can't get through the easier parts of bio because of lack of math to get to the bit where I might actually be useful at bc I'm good at statistics so I didn't even take bio, in Compsci we had to do 2 life science (one sequence, +1 other) for some reasons even though we don't really need any of that material-wise in CS (Graphics needed like, one thing from Optics but it was easy and we can just code to the equation anyway???) and I guess game programming required forces (again, simple enough shit that you can probably google, it's just programming to equations) and my god why are they way more time consuming than my actual major courses like okay I'm really salty about the labs and the homework, basically fuck aleks Also it didn't help that gen physics was literally fucking 7 am like what kind of college-aged computer scientist can function at 7am bar all nighters Edited May 15, 2016 by Thor Odinson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ansem Posted May 15, 2016 Author Share Posted May 15, 2016 whats wrong with bio ): lots of interesting material, but monotonous studying. doesnt really require understanding so much as it requires just plain memorization. organic is fun in the sense that you can derive shit and there is minimum memorization(my class allowed us an index card as a cheat sheet) but these didnt help due to how you needed innovation to do well. i feel that anatomy courses required more understanding(omg intro anatomy was so hard. managed an A but thats cause the curve was amazing) since they quiz you on patient shit. but for the most part you're sitting down watching lectures and taking notes. but its mad fun explaining to people at frat party what weed and jungle juice does to you on a physiological level. and when they are in your major and they understand what you're saying its a real good time. ^ i felt the same way about CSE101. the professor(mcdonnel, you prolly know him) seems like a decent guy, but it seems to be a lot of shit for a 101 course. if it were just python coding id be fine with it, but he was teaching us truth tables and circuits and stuff that i guess matters with CS stuff, but just like you i have major stuff to deal with so i gpnc'd it. not even taking the final :))) i'll take the NC. also kek taking phy131 next semester. but the online version so i dont have to wake up at 8am :)))))) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roxas Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 man doesn't Brookhaven have a bar scene or something, i always found barhopping in atlanta a lot more fun than stay-in/frat parties mostly because emory just sucks http://www.sbusigrho.com/ rush pls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ansem Posted May 15, 2016 Author Share Posted May 15, 2016 never heard of them lmao. and you're gonna need a car if you want to get anywhere stony brook is in the middle of nowhere. also campus is getting dryer since there was this place frats used to pick up that they cant anymore because cops so party scene isnt as loud as it used to be. people just stay in now. also stony is not a fun place its really depressing here ngl. the med school is prolly worst, dont know the brookhaven bars but idk if worth.
