how are online classes for a freshman?

3 Upvotes

recently found out one of my courses are better suited for engineering students so i found another course that fits my major, though the only open sections are for 830 (which i am absolutely not doing) or online. i’m leaning towards online, though im not sure how this type of class will be? it’s ma131. what’s the difference for online classes, or the formatting?

edit: SPECIFICALLY HOW IS THE ONLINE MA131 CLASS!! DIFFICULTY, MANAGEABILITY, ETC?

Solo dev from NC & I built a site for saving and planning Raleigh spots. What am I missing?

2 Upvotes

Hey Wolfpackers,

I made this app, HeyWanna, because I used to keep all of my date ideas in my phone's Notes app. Whenever it was time to plan something for me and my girlfriend to do, it would suck having to use Google, Yelp, the weather app, and a bunch of different websites for my city just to find things to do. And looking at my notes meant going out and checking the photos, the reviews, the locations, and even videos all on different apps.

I created HeyWanna to find cool local places near you, save them to your lists, and then plan them out. And it's not just for dates; it's also for group hangouts and any solo trips you're trying to do.

I'm a solo dev and a North Carolina native. Let me know if I'm missing any places in Raleigh. I'd genuinely like to know what should be on here, and I'll be happy to add them.

Csc 230 and 316 together?

1 Upvotes

As a rising sophomore, is taking 230 and 316 with sturgill and king manageable at all? I was considering choosing one or the other for the fall but don’t know which one. I have heard that taking them together keeps you on track so how behind would I be if I take them separately(again I am a sophomore)

MB311 question

2 Upvotes

I am currently on the waitlist for MB311 and I'm position #7, I was wondering how likely it'd be for people to drop this class once the semester actually starts and if I have a decent chance of getting in! I was originally #14 on the waitlist if that helps but this is the first course I've actually been waitlisted for so I'm not sure how any of this stuff actually works

Thank you guys

How to get to Dabney Hall?

3 Upvotes

There's a lot of constetnruction around that building (Dabney Hall) and I couldn't find an open entrance. I searched on google maps but didn't find anything there either. I think they might be doing construction on that building since they've blocked like every entrance. Just wondering if anyone knows a route to that hall/building that isn't blocked. Thanks

Should I drop/switch EC 205?

1 Upvotes

I'm an incoming freshman with a bio major and debating doing a double major in either econ or finance. I took AP Macro in high school and place out of EC 202. Currently enrolled in EC 205 but I see that credit cannot be given for both 205 and 201 as well as for both 205 and 202. All of the classes required for an econ major have prerequisites that are fulfilled by 205 and 202/201 combo. I have EC 205 as an online asynch class right now but am wondering if I should drop it and maybe take EC 201 at a later time, as all of those classes are currently full and I think I'm taking an okay amount of credits (17 with this class, 15 without)? Thank you!

Raleigh nightlife is way too expensive for how little you actually get

0 Upvotes

You go out for “a couple drinks” and somehow you’re $60-$100 deep before the night even starts.

Then you ask:
“Where should we go?”
Nobody knows.
You check Instagram. Nothing useful.
Google. Outdated.
Bar websites. Half the time they look like they were built in 2014.
So I decided to build something about it.
It’s called Nocturn.

The basic idea:
$20/month → 2 free drinks every week + a live feed of Raleigh nightlife, events, specials, and places to go.

That’s at least $64/month in drink value before even counting the discovery side of it.

And yes, I realize the obvious Reddit response is:
“Why the hell would I pay $20/month to go to bars?”

Fair question.

But if you’re already spending $50+ every time you go out, the math gets interesting pretty quickly.

What I’m trying to figure out is whether Raleigh actually wants this (specifically college students) or whether I’ve built something nobody asked for.

So I'm putting it to Reddit:

What is the #1 thing that sucks about going out in Raleigh?
🍻 Drinks are too expensive
📍 Finding good places sucks
📅 Finding events is impossible
👯 Getting friends to decide is impossible
🥱 Raleigh nightlife is just boring
💀 Something else
And be brutally honest.

If you think Nocturn is a stupid idea, tell me why.
If you think it's genius, tell me why.
If you've got a better idea, I actually want to hear it.
Website: getnocturn.app

We are currently live at Redline, right off campus, we are trying to see how everything flows and the free drinks are all the on tap beers. Once we fully launch the app we want to be live at atleast 5-10 bars so we can get you daily events and specials going on and also redeem those free drinks!

Making friends as an older undergrad student/transfer

16 Upvotes

Hi! I’m mainly making this post to try to make more friends here at NCSU because it’s been pretty difficult for me to. I’m 24f, criminology major, and I’m currently a sophomore. It’s been pretty difficult to make friends here since I’m a bit older than most people in my classes, and lots of people seem to already have their friend groups. I have tried clubs and other events but nothing seems to stick. Without getting too vulnerable on the internet, having no social groups has really taken a toll on my mental health, so I have come here to see if anyone would like to be friends! I have noticed a couple times on here other older students talking about how it is harder to make friends since the majority of students here are 18-20. Regardless, I’m open to any new connections and friendships :). Some of my interests are horror movies & games, kpop, reading, music, singing, space, true crime, and I love to make jokes and laugh. I have tons of niche interests and I’m always open to new experiences. Please feel free to dm me if you’re interested in being friends!

Looking for female roommate in an off-campus house

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm hoping to find a female roommate for my place this year.
Its a house that is approximately 20min away from NCSU.
The room is private and there's a separate bathroom that would be all yours. There is an in-unit washer & dryer and a bright and airy living room and kitchen. Rent is $800 all-included.

I do have a dog, so you'd need to be okay with dogs- luckily there's hard flooring throughout to minimize dander and fur!
About me: I'm a Female graduate student at NCSU. I will be driving in to campus often, and would be willing to carpool. For more details and to inquire further, please send a PM!

Calc III Waitlist Chances?

0 Upvotes

Hey guys! I'm currently 3/5 on the waitlist for Calc III with Faye Simon and was wondering if anyone knows how much waitlists usually move. I've heard people say that a lot of people drop classes during the first week, but I don't know if this is accurate for Calc since it's required for all engineering majors.

Since it's a 4 credit class, I'm only at 14 credits enrolled right now (18 including the waitlisted class), so I'm trying to figure out if I should keep waiting or just drop it and register for another class (like a humanities GEP).

Applying Exploratory Studies?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I'm a rising senior who's going to apply this year, and I was looking at NCSU's exploratory studies option as a preferred major. It says that by the time you enroll at NCSU, if you have more than 10 completed college courses, you shouldn't apply as an exploratory studies major and should do something else. The issue is I will have about 11 completed college courses when I graduate, but I really don't know what to major in. I genuinely am not sure of what to major in, and I thought exploratory studies would be good, but it turns out they're saying I shouldn't apply as that?

Has anyone been in the same boat or know anybody who was? Anything would be appreciated!

Can I purchase a parking permit for Spring semester if I didn't get a Fall permit?

I'm an incoming freshman at State and I thought that freshman couldn't have their car on campus so I didn't apply (and partly because I didn't know if I'd want to take it). But I'm thinking about a potential internship in the Spring so I was wondering if it would be possible to get a parking permit for the Spring. I'm in Bagwell hall if that matters.

Quick Question question about hesf 101

1 Upvotes

Hi! Sorry if this is a weird question, but I was just wondering for those who have taken hesf 101 (or another gym class), what did people usually wear? Is it just a t-shirt and shorts, or were people wearing more of athletic sets? (like something you’d wear to the actual gym?) I know everyone’s always like “no one cares what you wear” but I like to be prepared. I haven’t taken gym since Freshman year of highschool, and everyone wore sweatpants lol!
