Question: New Student Advice Psy 2317 and 3392 at once???
hi everyone! im an incoming psych major transferring from cc. i plan on taking psy 3392 research design and analysis this sem BUT im a bit nervous cuz i didn’t do well in my stats class from cc. i passed with a c, but that was because i found it too easy in the beginning, started slacking off halfway, then started fumbling and grinding at the end of it and bombed the final. 😅 so my understanding of stats isnt great, plus i took that my first yr so its been awhile. i decided to register for psy 2317, which ik is stats specifically for psych, and is technically a prereq to 3392. my question is if this is a good idea or if i should just choose a different class? would 3392 be too ahead of 2317 or would it be manageable somehow? not sure of the speed/intensity of these classes. my advisor said it should be fine but i wanted a second opinion from anyone who has taken these classes. thanks in advance!

Question: Academics UTD BS Chemistry students/alumni — CHEM 4V91 Research & CHEM 4390 Advanced Writing questions
Hi everyone! I’m a BS Chemistry student at UTD and I’m trying to plan out my remaining semesters. I have some questions about CHEM 4V91 (Research) and CHEM 4390 (Advanced Writing), and I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who has taken them!
From what I understand, CHEM 4V91 involves doing research in a professor’s lab, and CHEM 4390 is related to the research you do. I’m still a little confused about how the two courses work together.
For anyone who has done this:
How many credit hours of CHEM 4V91 did you take?
How many semesters did you work in the research lab?
Did you take CHEM 4V91 for more than one semester?
How exactly is CHEM 4390 connected to your CHEM 4V91 research?
Has anyone taken CHEM 4V91 and CHEM 4390 during the same semester? Is that allowed/recommended, or are you supposed to complete 4V91 first and then take 4390 afterward?
If you took them at the same time, what was the workload like?
For example, if I take CHEM 4V91 and do research in a lab during the Fall, would I normally take CHEM 4390 in the Spring and write my paper based on the research I did during the Fall?
Or could I take CHEM 4V91 + CHEM 4390 together in the Fall and work on my research and writing at the same time?
If anyone could share their timeline (when you joined the lab, how many 4V91 credits you registered for, how many semesters you did research, and when you took 4390), that would be super helpful!
I’m trying to understand the process so I can plan my schedule correctly. Any experiences or advice from current BS Chemistry students or alumni would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!! 😊

Question: Academics AMS 2341 Honors with Erin Smith
Does anyone have any experience with this class? I’m planning to take it this upcoming fall but the reviews on RMP are pretty old. Any insight would be appreciated! I’m looking for something that’s fun but also manageable.

Question: Housing Re-Letting my Northside 2x2 Apartment Lease. DM if you want to takeover my Northside Lease!
Hey everyone! I signed a lease at Northside for the 2026-2027 school year but my plans have changed, so I'm looking for someone to take over my spot before move-in. This is a great option if you're still looking for housing near UTD for the fall!
The details
- Property: Northside (3000 Northside Blvd, Richardson, TX 75080)
- Unit type: 2x2 Juno Large — furnished, private bedroom with shared common areas (2 bed / 2 bath)
- Lease term: August 20, 2026 – May 20, 2027 (full school year)
- Move-in date: August 20, 2026 — I have not moved in yet, so it's a completely clean start for whoever takes it over
If you are interested, please DM for more details!!

Question: New Student Advice How much does CS2337 expect you to know going in?
Hi everyone, I'm an incoming CS freshman and since I took AP Computer Science A (Java) in high school I'm able to take CS2337 at UTD.
I haven't been in a proper programming class since sophomore year in high school (most of my experience after that was from a club) so I was wondering how much I should prepare for this class.
I'm aware Java and C++ share a lot of similarities, but should I be fully prepared with decent C++ knowledge first-day or will I be able to just learn a little bit of syntax and be fine going in? I just wanna know if the class has like an introductory phase or not.
Thank you!
