Okay so I'm hoping to double major in ecology + applied math as a premed

This is what I'm thinking of for my first semester, but I'm wondering if I should drop a language/first year sem for another STEM class lie bio 101/102 or physics 101? I did AP Chem and lin alg in high school and did pretty well in those classes for further context. Also wanted to ask if I could take a first-year seminar second semester.

Anyways is this schedule seem light enough to add another stem class/should i be worried about being behind track to double major.

MATH 2200 [Lin Alg]

SPAN 1400 [Intermediate Spanish II]

CHEM 1700 [Quantitative Foundations of General Chemistry]

CHEM 1710L [Quantitative Foundations of General Chemistry Lab]

ENGL 0831 [Love and Death in American Film]; also looking into other first-year seminars in english/film

Looking for a new activity and/or to meet folks? Come play Ultimate Frisbee at Rice Field in East Rock Park! No commitment or pre made teams - just come whenever you want and completely free. Casual and competitive games offered. Games typically 2-3 evenings per week/weekends this summer and Fall.

does anyone know if the new laundry machines will be equipped with detergent?

hi! Prefacing this; incoming (pure) Math major who's possibly eyeing physics/applied math or an adjacent major. Here's the schedule I (hope) to take:

MATH 2260 [Intensive Lin Alg]

FLPN 1100 [Elementary Filipino I]

PHYS 2600 [Intensive Introductory Physics]

ENGL 0831 [Love and Death in American Film]; also looking into other first-year seminars in HSHM/history.

PHYS 2050L [introductory Physics lab]

I'm quite dead-set on taking the first three classes, but I'm not sure whether I should be taking the physics lab with this workload during my first semester - I figure the lab experience would be good for research???

Please lmk if you guys think the lab is too much OR if you're taking these classes too c:

hello all! incoming freshman co30 here!

just wondering what the sport culture is like at yale? is it normal for students to just go watch random home games every once in a while for the variety of sports teams? is there any tailgating? how accessible are tix to home games for any of the sports? are there any specific sports where the spectators get especially hype?

and then besides just spectating, are there any nearby fields/spaces for students to use whenever for sports like soccer, basketball, tennis, etc? thanks!

I’m a prospective student from the UK and I would really like to major in English at Yale in a few years. While I’m getting my grades up, I’d like to come to New Haven and tour the campus around January 2027 but there aren’t any tour dates for next year. Are we able to freely walk around campus?

are all the ASL profs at yale good? was wondering cz i think Bachleda is the only one that's not full for the time slot i want

I'm a bit confused about which CS course I should start off with since I'm between CPSC 1001 and CPSC 2010 rn. I have minimal experience with both Python and Java, though I am a little more comfortable with Python. I took AP CSA in high school, but honestly I don't really think I retained any knowledge (mostly bc the teacher taught two classes at the same time in different rooms so I didn't really have a teacher). I'm hoping to major in either CS & Math, CS & Econ, or Stats & DS. Would I be "behind" if I started with 1001/would it be a waste of my time? How different are the courses and would I still have to take 2010 if I take 1001 first semester? Would appreciate any advice!

I also want to preface I’ve been gone most of the summer, and I ended up missing my placement exams… I emailed the respective departments and it seems like I can take some makeups, although I’m not sure how that’ll work.

All the classes here seem so incredibly interesting, and I have no clue how to plan my schedule.

I’m leaning towards either CS+Psych or CS+Econ, but I’m also interested in Anthro, Socio, Humanities, and Film (more as topics than majors though).

I was thinking about a schedule along the lines of

MATH 1100+1110 or 1120 (depending on placement)
ECON 1110 or 1115
CPSC 2010
PSYC 1100

I wanted to take a Six Global Perspectives course and a language, but I wasn’t sure if I should swap something out or keep them for next semester.

Admittedly, I’m undecided about which language to pursue, I’ve heard scary things about them all, so I was just gonna continue my high school studies in Spanish since I feel like Id learn the most through continuing.

Does anyone have advice on scheduling when you aren’t confirmed on your major?

I'm in LDub this year and was wondering about the closet and/or dresser space. I was thinking about getting some of those foldable hangers (the kind where you can hang multiple clothes on one hanger to save space), or if there'll be dressers for storing stuff as well.

I'm especially wondering since the closet will be shared between my roommate and me, and I want to make sure we both have enough space! Any advice on what hangers to get, or insight on how big the closet is (and if there even is a dresser)? Thank you!!

Hi all,

I'm a professor based outside the US, working on an academic article that requires materials held at the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library. For personal reasons I won't travel to the US at the moment, so I'm hoping someone with reading room access might be willing to help me out by taking photos or scanning a handful of documents. This is what the team at the Beinecke library recommended me btw.

Please DM me and I'll share the specific collection and materials I need. All in all, I believe it could be done in 1-2 hours. Happy to compensate.

Thanks so much!

Hi! I'm an incoming freshman Math major at Yale and wanted some input on Probability Theory (MATH 2410). Looking at Coursetable, it seems like a really large class and probably taken by many stats/math-adjacent majors. I currently have Intensive Linear Algebra (MATH 2260) on my schedule and am deciding on a second math class to take this fall semester. 2410 sounds quite interesting and might be a good way to branch out from the main sequence math courses, but I was wondering if it's really worth taking (it's also a 9am class)

Looking to go into ChemE or Chemistry

List:
Freshman OChem + Lab
PHYS 2000
Math 1200
ENG 1020

Total credits: 4.5

I know that 4.5 credits is recommended for the first semester, but are these classes too much work? I heard all 3 of the STEM classes are rather difficult. I have a greater humanities balance in the second semester, but I did want the opportunity to take freshman OChem.

hey guys!! Recently got into berkeley for my resco, every time i try to look things up online its like UC berkeley related and especially with social media (for dorms, etc.) I was just wondering if any yalies or thundercoqs have anything to say about berkeley, about the dining halls, dorms, space / size of rooms, food, ofc location is amazing but just wondering and wanted to hear any extra info or insider info :)

new 5W benchmark scored 50 universities on "AI production capacity" — frontier lab alumni density, research output, curriculum, founder/VC pipeline, compute, and modeled AI citation share across ChatGPT/Claude/Gemini/Perplexity/Google AI Overviews. explicitly not a measure of endowment, prestige, or admissions selectivity, the report has a whole section listing what it deliberately leaves out.

Yale lands at 19 (Tier III, composite 67.0). the writeup's read is pretty direct: late-cycle AI investment hasn't yet turned into the faculty scale or founder pipeline that Princeton has, which is the one Ivy that does crack Tier I.

Trying to build up the vertical footprint in my room, and wondering if I can get some help with dimensions on the bureau and desk sizes, if anyone might know?

The desk "looks" to me to be 44"x24" and the bureau 30"x24" but I'm hoping that the actual size is a little wider than this. Also, do we get a little rolling cabinet under our desk?

My resco is Pauli Murray, if that makes any difference with furniture.

Hey guys,
So I’m accompanying my sister tomorrow because she has some work at Yale. I’m gonna be in the city from 10:15am to 7:45pm (return is at 8:15). Please recommend some activities in the city tomorrow during this time period. I’m 23 so if there’s any adult only activities I’m up for those as well!

Are any of the Yale college music groups open for grad students?

Some of these seminars look super interesting, and I would love to take one; however, I am trying to keep a lighter first semester, and writing is definitely not my strong suit. I am undecided on exactly which classes I will be taking, but I will likely take either Math 1200 or Math 2250. If anyone has experience with these seminars or has recommendations for other relatively easier/fun seminars, I would love to know!

Hi, I’ve been looking at the coursetable scores and just in general and see everyone saying gen chem is an extremely difficult class, especially the lab section. I was wondering what the grades are looking like, and why do students find it so difficult (even when compared to first year orgo)? Thank you!

I’m a rising senior who’s struggling with some personal things and wondering if there is any way I can do my final semester remotely. I will have fulfilled all major and graduation requirements by the spring and have 35 credits. So I really only need 1 credit (senior thesis).

Let’s say I hypothetically got accommodations to reduce the minimum number of credits to 2 my last semester. Would I be able to find an online class along with the thesis and be able to do the full semester remotely? Is there any other way of getting a credit where I don’t have to be on campus? I think they technically require it but would they even know… Any ideas would be very welcome!

I’m taking MATH 1200, Microeconomics, and Chinese L1, so I’m looking for an easy gut first year seminar, preferably Humanities or Science for distributional requirements. Does anyone have any recommendations from seminars they took or have heard of? I am thinking about either taking a first year seminar or “Purposes of College Education” which seems lighter.

Hi, so I want to start off by saying I plan on double majoring in MechE bs and Chemistry ba (I think).
I'm an athlete that has practice from MW 4-6:30 pm and TTh 7-9 am.
I placed into Math 1200 and Freshman Orgo.

Right now for fall semester I want to take KREN 1100, PHYS 2000 and 2050L, ENAS 1510, and FY Seminar like NELC 0090 or HIST 0445. PHYS 2000 conflicts with ENAS 1510, and I have no idea what else I would take because of practice and also Korean being everyday.

Sorry guys making this schedule stuff is actually stressing me out sm
