Y'all are goats for filling it out! I am so very grateful for everyone who decides to participate.

I think I've lost the ability to read books for fun. every time I try I feel guilty for not reading assigned texts for class instead.

it’s already expensive to buy books for my classes, but reading on my laptop hurts my eyes. I personally just like reading physical books where i can annotate and not worry about returning to a library, but my measly wallet pays the price for that preference lol.

Does anyone have any advice on balancing reading for fun vs for school? what about physical books vs ebooks?

Hey, my friends and I are trying to find plans for halloweekend around UT, whether it’s frats, raves, parties, etc. Last year didn’t go so well so we’re trying to plan better this time, please help us out and drop some events, thank you!

I did horrible on the first exam and got like a 78 and I just had the exam 2 and was not able to finish the last paragraph of the last question which would put me in the high 80s I think but there is no letter grades in the syllabus so I really have no idea how this class is going to be graded. Does anyone know how the percentages for grades work for this class? Im literally so stressed and hate this class.

is there a place to look for old costume props that people dont want to use anymore? Im lowkey broke but want to wear a cute halloween costume this year.

I’m just looking for an excuse to show up wearing a costume and to take photos I literally have 4-5 costumes I would love to wear but I’m kind of a loner it’s my first semester.. anything fun orgs/clubs are doing that doesn’t necessarily have to be a party (though I wouldn’t mind if it was but it would be a little difficult for me since I’m an introvert whose awkward but I feel like if the event is doing an actual activity then it would probably be less difficult for me to talk to others)

10/26 Struggled a but getting home cuz of it, but im mostly just curious.

So, I’m wanting to use one of my q drops to protect my gpa and that would make me a part time student for this semester.

I receive full FAFSA grants and aid and am wondering if that means I’ll have to repay any of this now or later? I’m fine with delaying graduation a semester but I’m also wondering if anybody received any other consequences for dropping from full to part time other than this concern I have?

Will speak with advisors but want a student perspective 🙏

I’m a junior guy that skipped halloweekend last year and unfortunately don’t have anyone to go out with this year, looking for others in the same boat who are down to pregame then go out. Down for 6th, frats, whatever yall into

I know this is very last minute and all the nail techs I can think of are only available in november but I thought I’d ask 💔

I don’t want anything too crazy tbh,, just solid color gel x nails.. let me know i would be eternally grateful

we‘re going to live in a 4x4 at the sinclair, dm if interested!

Is there anyone that can workout with me at the Rec center? I wanna work out on whole body workouts, looking to build muscle and lean out. Preferably a dude to work with who has trained that I can learn from.

I wanna workout most weekday evenings, early evenings (4-7). I want someone to hold me accountable and give me support/advice. Even better if it’s a small group of yall (2-5 people).

Let me know :)

I have so many exams and assignments surrounding the date

Please lmk if you’re interested or know someone that is ;-;

I was wondering if anyone has a 2b/2b for around $1200 or knows of one around that price range for the 2027-2028 school year. 1250 max

Pls I need help like actually I did so bad last test

Hi, I’m a bio major and premed. I need advice for picking streams.

Should I aim for stream that fulfills both bio and chem lab? Some of the stream that I’m looking at only fulfill bio lab credit (like Behavioral Neuroscience). Would that be fine? Or should I try to double dip.

Also, while this might sound lazy, I don’t want stream that are too challenging/super time consuming. I’m aware that each stream provides their own struggle and I’m not expecting to just show up and get an A, but I don’t really want to have to constantly worry over getting an A or not.

So I applied to be an RA, and some of my friends have as well. They have all gotten emails inviting them to interview, but I haven’t gotten any response. At this point is it safe to assume I’m not getting an interview?

Hello! I have been looking for a good book club that doesn't necessarily have to just be pre-med related but includes topics like bioethics, philosophy, sociology, psych, etc. Does something like this even exist here? Let me know :)

I'm currently studying for the MCAT and trying to decide whether to take INB 365S (Human Physiology) with Austin or INB 321G (Computational Biology) with Bentley next semester. I register for classes next week and want to figure out which course would be better to take while studying for the MCAT. I know physiology would be more relevant to the MCAT, but I've heard that computational biology is less time-consuming and an easier A, which would give me more time to focus on studying. Has anyone taken either of these classes or have any insight into which one would be the better option? I'd really appreciate any advice!
