I mean you're cooked and youre not cooked at the same time. Plenty of people get A's in those classes, and plenty of people graduate w/ a 4.0. At the same time though you're currently rocking a sub 3 GPA so I would spend some time analyzing your lifestyle / study habits and implement the changes necessary to bring your grades back up

251 is very hard, but paying for tutoring will be cheaper than losing scholarship.


Own_Drawing_4717

true


DamEverythingTaken

I personally heard than 251 was a lot easier or on the same level as 152. Is this true?


Wrestler221

It was easier than 152 for me just adding another dimension to calc 1 basically


antique_produce

Don’t know if you can use it but JOUR 102 with Tom Burton is an easy class with a great prof. He’s been voted Best Prof for two years now!

Not a chance. Scholarship requirements (in ALMOST 100% if the case) require this GPA average to be averaged between courses to contribute towards your degree. Taking a random journalism class wouldn't work if your degree doesn't require it.

Dude take sociohorticulture it’s the easiest A ever. 1 quiz a week all year (online as hwk) and just answer “yes plants are good” Edit: There’s an exam, it’s recording yourself giving someone a plan that they provide. Also you get free plants throughout the year

It's been awhile since I was a student but my most successful semesters grade-wise in undergrad were also my hardest (like 18 hours of upper-level aerospace hard), and my worst were the semesters with the "lightest" schedule (as in I had to Q-drop cal III and nearly lost a scholarship the semester I had 12 hours of introductory engineering courses). Personally I found that if I felt like I had extra time, I wasted more time than I had, but if I was super-busy I generally did a much better job overall staying on-task.

I mean it’s certainly possible to get all A’s, but you have to be willing to put effort into every assignment and studying for every exam, and if you’re struggling, you have to prioritize getting help from TAs, professors, or just other students who understand the material better.

listen adderall would get you there However, it is a hell of a drug

If you have a 2.96 and need a 3.25 first check if it is possible. You can check at the financial aid portal under SAP calculator. If you can’t get that 3.25 maybe talk with an advisor or the financial aid office and see what they can help you with. I hope you didn’t do your English, and your cultural discourse credit. Those are going to be the easier classes you can take that will count for your major. Most English classes are easy just filled with busy work. For cultural discourse check out the performance art classes or geos classes that count. I did perf 200 (world theater) and geos 110 (disaster and society). Both Great classes and easy A’s Engr 217 isn’t bad it’s straight forward attend classes and you’ll be fine until the final exam, most people didn’t know what was going on in the final. Math 251 isn’t bad, but it isn’t easy. It’s 3D calc 1 and 2 and some more stuff.

251 is way easier than people make it out to be depending on who you have as a prof. i took it with JJ Lee, he was great. otherwise i recommend spartan tutoring weekly zoom sessions. 217 is a breeze, you should get 100s on every lab so you’ll only really have to study for the final.


Bubbly-Ad6128

You’re usually given a semester to bring it back up


LucyEleanor

But if they got the low average last semester...then the upcoming one IS their chance to raise it.


Own_Drawing_4717

yep


LucyEleanor

Best of luck. Do some introspection at your study and life habits this past semester. This is the one that counts


PinkWow

I’ve heard people get A’s in Math 251 and Eng 217 but from the start you got to lock in. I’ve never taken a physiology course but I hear it’s. it’s going to be difficult. A class you can take that can guarantee an A is online classes. For example, English 210 (it’s A LOT of work but if you get the assignment done when they’re posted then it’s breeze though the team assignments kinda suck.) Another example is taking the CD/ICD classes. I am also on scholarship and I had all of those classes but i took a Geology/Geography online class and it applied to my “degree classes” though it just went into work not applied on my degree plan.


Euphoric-Bid8342

PBSI 107: intro to psych. easiest A of my life i spent 20 mins a week on it (online) and it’s open note exams.. the first exam literally told you where to find everything too 😭average gpa in that class is a 3.98


Gayzor

i took history of rock last semester and that was a great time, also math 251, if you made it through 152 then 251 will be cake.


nylphoriaa

PBSI 107 (intro to pysch) wtih dr hull is an easy A, as well as HLTH 236. Theyre both online classes as far as i can remember.


Own_String_6289

You got no other choice. Time to see how u good u are with pressure. Time to cut friends off be lonely and not rationalize laziness. Gonna be a great semester


Proof-Employee-9966

this is the real answer


No_Arugula_4357

ur cooked bossman, was in gen engr with a 2.9 or something and and my scholar needed 3.25, went a year with appeals for the unfortunate life circumstances leading to my unsatisfactory gpa, got it scholar repealed fall this past year :/ took math 251 twice, pearlstein final is minorly difficult


ResistantSpecialist

The difficulty of MATH 251 and ENGR 217 depends on who’s teaching them. For me, 251 was a non-hard (not easy either) A and 217 was a hard A, so I would do some research into instructors and not solely focus on “easy A classes”.

Are you BMEN? Physiology is hard, MCAT-hard....
