<p>They are the same price, but 10 meals/wk has 100$ more dining dollars.</p>
<p>according to my calculations, the fall to spring semester is from august 30 to jan 8, meaning the 10 meals/wk, 17 weeks in total. meaning 170 meals. well this does not factor in winterbreak, which is like what, 2 weeks? </p>
<p>but i am still going with the flex meal just so i don't have to plan ahead of the time when i'm gonna be eating out</p>
<p>Janurary 8th is in the middle of Winter Break, I believe...I had calculated around 15 weeks...don't forget Thanksgiving break as well. I was really looking for something along the lines of 11-12 meals a week, and that's the 175 Flex, so I went with that. Plus, I'd like to be able to save time by eating one meal at the dinng hall and then getting another one to go for later...there is too much else to do to be in the dining all all the time. I wanted the $250 dining dollars, but I have a Starbucks card already and thats the only place I'll probably use those.</p>
<p>I would like to bumb this up by asking exactly how many meals per week does the Flex come out to, I counted 10.9 per week, i can be wrong.</p>
<p>I think the 175 Flex comes out to like 1.5 meal a day - but thats just off the top of my head.</p>
<p>yeah its something like that, i actually factored in my class schedule and i saw that i cant eat lunch 2 of the 4 days i have class and if i take a week where i dont go out at all it, i would need around 12 meals. So im either getting the 10 or the 175 flex, probably the flex because there will be times where i will go out alot and times i dont go out at all but i wont lose out (not use my 10 weekly meals) if i go out all the time, and i can take my friends who viist to the dining halls with the flex also which is pretty sweet.</p>
<p>I ended up getting the 175 Flex, which I think works the best. Enough meals for the semester, declining dollars, and the ability to eat out without "wasting" a meal.</p>
<p>Ya, I chose 175 FLEX as well. Its got just enough and a little more to satisfy any food urge you should get.</p>
