Change of Major >> ELEN - How cooked am I?

Currently a sophomore that ETAMed into CVEN at TAMU CSTAT after being on the fence between it and ELEN. After a semester in CVEN, I've realized ELEN would align with my career more and am trying to transfer this upcoming application cycle.

I've already read all the transfer requirements and I fulfill all of them, but it's looking like my GPA is going to stay just barely above the requirement of 3.5, somewhere between 3.5 and 3.6. Was wondering how hard it is to transfer into ELEN as someone already within the college of engineering, assuming I already meet all those requirements.

Current Stats and Notes:

Current GPA: 3.6

Relevant ECs: IEEE member, ASCE member, Solar Car Electrical Team Lead in High School

Where do third deck tickets pulled go if you pull <=10 compared to 11+?

If I pull 3rd deck tickets in the 10 or less line, is the section I am going to get different from the ones that the 11 plus people go to? So do 10 or less people go to 330-338 and the 11+ in the 340's or all they all together? Just trying to figure out if we should go third deck this Monday morning. Was curious if 11 plus people would be competing for the same seats.

ECEN 322 Robert Nevels

Hello, I am a student who is currently taking ECEN 322, which Robert Nevels himself teaches. For those who have taken him or is knowledgeable of how his classes run, does he possibly do grade cut-offs or curves?

The past two exams have been a bit rough on my side; I've barely scored above the averages for the exams but even so, my grade is not looking too bright. I want to know if I have a solid chance of getting a decent grade in his class.

Last chance to have us camp t.u for you

Howdy, since my last post we've had people have last minute change of plans so the offer is still on the table. I will camp this Sunday 6am for you just to fulfill my ticket ratio. Few spots are still open and since we're pulling anyways might as well open it up for any last minute people. Only senior sport passes please.

Parking ticket with wrong license plate

Sooo parked for 10 mins to get insomnia cookies at midnight...came back to a ticket. But they have the wrong license plate, what should I do? I planned on calling the court.

P.S. Screw whoever's job it is to give out parking tickets. Parking for 10 minutes in a EMPTY lot shouldn't ruin my damn day.

Is Diff EQ required?

I’m confused on if Diff EQ is required in my degree plan as an ENGR student. I want to go into ESET and it says i can do calc 1 calc 2 then a math elective so would I still have to take diff EQ after that?

Do I have to wait until I the semester ends and I have my grade for calc III before I can register for diff eq?

I'm a engineering acadamey student and I'm trying to come down to College Station this spring. One of my issues with regiatation is I can't register for diff eq because I fail the pre req check even though I'm in Calc III right now. I'm being told that it is because it's the math departments policy to not let you register until they have the grade for the course. This makes no sense to me, no other class I've registered for has been like this, and I can't find this 'policy' anywhere. Is this a real thing?.

DO NOT GO TO CLASS SICK

I feel like this should be self explanatory, but when will people learn to NOT come to class if you are sick. I just spent 75 minutes taking my most important test of the semester while sitting next to a guy who LITERALLY hacked his lungs up THE ENTIRE TIME. He was clearly sick and should not have been in a classroom full of 200 people.

I get that you don’t want to miss an exam, but you can so easily go to the doctor and get a note to give to your professor and take the test another time. For your sake and especially the sake of others who you can/will distribute or get sick, DO YOUR PART.

This has always heated me especially since Covid, maybe a severe germaphobe idk.

Take care as we go into finals ag’s. Don’t get sick and if you do don’t get others sick.

Now if you will excuse me i am going to bathe in hand sanitizer

Double Degree?

Hey!

I just got my AM acceptance like a week ago into the engineering program and I was wondering if I could do a double degree in like business administration or something along those lines in business. I already have all of my common core credit via AP and Dual Credits and I am done with math up to linear algebra and ECEN first semester course so I mean I have a lot of spaces to take on courses and enroll full time.

Is this feasible I mean is there anything stopping?

Thanks!

Bug Issue

Hi, I’m currently living over at Holleman Crossjng Apartments and up until this past week everything has been great. Last Tuesday I went grocery shopping, and after grocery shopping I always reorganize my pantry and throw out anything that needs to be thrown away. 30 minutes after heading to campus I received a phone call from my roommate saying there were bugs crawling all over our pantry. I was confused because I had JUST gone through everything.

When I tried going to management they told us to wait a week for the exterminator. To which the exterminator came this past Monday and the bugs are still there after I’ve laid down Raid traps and sprayed with Raid 3x a day. We have also removed all food so the cabinet has been empty for almost 2 weeks now. To which the bugs are still there.

Is anyone else at Holleman crossing going through this? Or has anyone else had a similar issue and have tips on how to get it resolved?

I need a clinically deranged baddie

Yall have too high of a standard. I am looking for someone who has mentally hit rock bottom. Someone who can't even look themselves in the eye in a mirror. Someone who would break down upon being asked directions to the nearest restroom.

They need to be so possessive of the only affection they receive that they would kill me if I were to look anywhere else.

Anyway that's just me.

For Geologist Majors

I’m a freshman currently in General Engineering, I have taken one, ONE geography class and it interests me so much, not going to lie but I’ve also enjoyed going on caverns and collecting gemstones back at home. (Got my own collection) Could anyone else give me an insight on what do y’all do? I’m planning to switch majors. I don’t know how to tell my parents though, rather my father who is strict. I’m doing my research on the major itself.

Looking for the clinically insane waifu

Your post spoke to me in ways that I haven’t felt since I first laid eyes on Hatsune Miku.

These other guys aren’t worth it (they’re probably well kept business majors). I promise I’m not like them at all. I’m a CS major who hasn’t showered in 2 weeks and I’m ready to meet the clinically insane girl of my dreams.

Just like the amazing Celestial Spirit in Fairy Tail, I am an Aquarius. Vastly superior to these Geminis, Scorpios, and Pisces we both detest.

I can’t guarantee how I’ll take the break up, as I’ve never had a girlfriend before, but I will always come running back to you.

I can wait 3-5 days but beware it may take awhile for me to respond as I’m about to start my quarterly rewatch of Boku no Hero Academia.

Lofts at Wolf Pen Reviews?

Howdy guys, I've been looking at living in a 2x2 at the Lofts at Wolf Pen next year. I've read a lot of bad reviews but also a lot of good reviews so I'm not too sure what to think. I understand that most apartments here in CS have bad reviews so some I try to look past, but I want y'all's thoughts.

Here's what I like (from my tour) -
Location - I want to be a little bit away from campus, close to HEB/Target
Amenities - I like their gym and pool(s) better than some of the other places I've looked at (honestly probably wont use these as much as I say so doesn't really matter)
Room - I liked the look of the tour room. I understand that the actual rooms will be worse than the tour room, but I still enjoyed the feel
Front desk staff were very nice. I know that it's their job to be overly nice, but some of the other places had terrible front desk people.

Here's what I've seen from negative reviews -
Fire alarms going off a lot
Poor internet
Poor maintenance
Apartments are very dirty at move-in

Some of these complaints are from old reviews so hoping that it's gotten better since. I've seen some people say it's great and some people say it's terrible, so just wanting more opinions.

I am the clinically insane girl on campus

I dated the other guy and I agree. He has no idea what he's missing out on. Despite tiktok advice, I even slashed all 4 tires so that he could claim insurance! But its nice to see someone will appreciate my affection.

Nix the crystals. I want an evil eye necklace.

I accept the romantic movie offer but raise you a toxic booktok romance novel. You don't need to live up to the male protagonist. I have enough toxicity for the both of us.

If you contact me, please preface your message with your zodiac sign. Geminis, Scorpios and Pisces NOT allowed and WILL be hexed.

I will add you to my snapchat private story and only you will be on it. I WILL pretend that there are other people.

I will break up with you multiple times, but don't worry, pookie. I can't stand on business.

DM's are also open but I will wait 3-5 business days to respond so I don't seem interested. Gotta make you work for it. Bye, my love.

Where are the clinically insane girls at on campus?

That other guy has no idea what hes missing out on in my opinion. I need to know where all these psychotic aggie women are at. Here’s what I got to offer:

I will buy you any crystals you want.

I will watch romantic movies with you and never live up to the male protagonist’s portrayal of true love.

I will blindly agree with your astrological analysis of me and your enemies.

I can help manage your portfolio of social media stalker accounts.

I have medical insurance.

I can manipulate/gaslight you (consensually) so you have infinite gossip material with your bff’s.

I will get a tattoo of your name and face on a visible part of my body.

DM’s are wide, wide open.
