<p>Does Clara Dickson Hall have a billiard table? If not, where is the nearest one?</p>
<p>Pool tables are always a great place to just escape to and play a quiet game on.</p>
<p>more questions!</p>
<p>-would you recommend psych 1101 or hd 1150? i’m guessing hd is the smaller class, and now that it seems as though psych has gotten harder, hd might be the easier class as well. but psych seems so legendary i feel like i should try to take it?</p>
<p>-is there any space underneath your dorm room bed to store things?</p>
<p>Hey jakeiscool.</p>
<p>A lot of kids that want to be pre-med major in HBHS. If you want to see some of the requirements for the school check out the website: </p>
<p>[HBHS:</a> An Introduction](<a href=“http://www.nutrition.cornell.edu/che/DNS/academic/hbhsin.cfm]HBHS:”>http://www.nutrition.cornell.edu/che/DNS/academic/hbhsin.cfm)</p>
<p>I have heard really positive things from the students about the major. Most seem to enjoy it. I don’t believe the workload is too bad, but you also remember you will be taking science classes and such. These can require extra time for labs, etc.</p>
<p>I can’t tell you extactly what medical schools will be looking for. However, since there are so many pre-meds in this major I’m assuming that medical schools respect it. Like I said before…there are english majors that are pre-med, so it’s really just important you get all the recommendations for pre-meds completed. All pre-meds will take the same courses and that is the type of thing the med schools will look at.</p>
<p>Hey flymaster.</p>
<p>I brought a tv that I believe was a 17" flat screen. It was a good size tv because it fit on a small area. Then again…I also had a friend who had a tv that must have been about 50", but it took up a huge space.</p>
<p>I would recommend one on the smaller side if it’s something you want.</p>
<p>Enjoy.</p>
<p>Hey ricey.</p>
<p>If I remember correctly they sent me something in the mail with my housing stuff about renting fridges and microwaves. If you want to get your own fridge it cannot use more wattage than the fridges you can get from the school. Wait for the housing mailing because it should have a lot of information.</p>
<p>You can also check out the house website for more information about dorm stuff:

<p>Hey mike.</p>
<p>I’m not postive if there is a pool table in Dickson. However, the dorms have a mixture of lounges, tvs, ping pong tables, pianos, pool tables, kitchens, etc. If there isn’t a pool table in your dorm there are in CBK so if you have friends there you might be able to use those. If not, there are pool tables in RPCC (the community center). It has a pool room.</p>
<p>Hey alamode.</p>
<p>I would say take whichever class is more appealing to you. I would say both are on about the same level. Psych might require a little more textbook reading for the tests but overall it is probably more of an appealing class. HD covers different stuff and I have heard some people find the class to not be as exciting. </p>
<p>You can also plan out the rest of your classes and see which one works at a better time for you. Either class might be very interesting for you.</p>
<p>Many of the dorms have beds where you can easily adjust them to make them higher. A lot of people choose to do this so they can use the space underneath. You can also get bed rises if you feel you want more room.</p>

<p>sorry forgot… I’m Cathy :)</p>
<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I’m going to be in CALS as a Information Science major. However, after pre-studying during the summer, I realized that I may be more interested in an Econ major and an IS/AEM minor. How hard would it be for me to transfer to CAS as an Econ major? What courses should I sign up for to avoid “wasted credits” like CALS required courses since I may transfer. Thank you very much.</p>
<p>hey Cathy.</p>
<p>The best way to figure out classes and whatnot is to meet with your advisor once you get to campus or your general advising in your school. (Normally all you have to do is call them and make an appointment)</p>
<p>They will be the ones to tell you which credits count for what. Also, they can help you outline the classes you will have to take each semester to gradute early. Good luck.</p>
<p>Hey randomguy.</p>
<p>It’s hard to tell you how difficult it would be for you to transfer. However, they will review your application and if you show you are a good fit for a different program you have a good shot at it.</p>
<p>In terms of figuring out classes, I would meet with your advisor. They will be able to tell you the minimum requirements you have to take in your current school so you will remain in good standing. They might also be able to suggest other courses.</p>
<p>It might also be a good idea to meet with advising of the new school to see what they suggest taking. The internal tranfer division may also be helpful. There director there helped me out a lot when I was deciding on changing schools.</p>
<p>Hope that helps!</p>
<p>I just received an email from college of arts and sciences saying that I should start enrolling in courses from July 8th onwards. So I can actually wait until school starts to do course enrollment? Thank you :)</p>
<p>There’s this graduation requirement that you have to take at least 100 credits at Cornell. So all my transferred credits including A level and AP don’t count towards this 100 credits? And if I pass Multivariable Calculus placement test during orientation and do not take the course subsequently, do the 4 credits for Multivariable Calculus count towards the 100 credits? Thank you :)</p>
<p>Hi, I was just wondering if CAS students are at a disadvantage for CALS classes. I really want to take HORT 2010 but there are only two classes for all the undergrads I think. How hard would it be for me to get into the classes I chose for freshman year? ALong with that i’m hoping for CHIN 1109, SOC 1101, PSYCH 1102, a FWS, and a PE class. How does this schedule seem, manageable? Thanks =D.</p>
<p>Hey cornell3.</p>
<p>I am not in arts and sciences so I’m not exactly sure how they enroll freshman in courses or if this is just different from how they did it last year. However, if they are sending you information to enroll then follow what they say. If you need help with figuring out classes, what to take, etc it is great to speak with an advisor when you get to campus. If you need to, there is time to change around your classes at the beginning of the semester. There is a time period called add/drop that you will get familar with. You will have time to make adjustments so no need to worry.</p>
<p>I am also not exactly sure what will and will not count for credits and I don’t want to provide you with incorrect information. Again, the best way to figure out is to meet with an advisor from your school. He or she should be able to tell you exactly what will count and the requirments of the college.</p>
<p>Hey x3xkimiex3x.</p>
<p>Many people take classes outside of their school. Generally, if the class you want to take is very popular or required for other people it will be harder to get into. If there is room after all people that are required to take it sign up then they will open the class for otheres to join. You can find out if certain people are given preference in a paticular class by looking at the class descriptions in the courses of study:
[Cornell</a> University Registrar: Course and Time Roster Fall 2009](<a href=“http://registrar.sas.cornell.edu/courses/roster/FA09/]Cornell”>http://registrar.sas.cornell.edu/courses/roster/FA09/)</p>
<p>It seems that HORT 2010 is open to everyone. As a freshman it really isn’t hard to get into classes unless you are taking certain electives (such as the very popular wines course). If you ever have trouble getting into classes you are required to take then the school will also help you get what you need. Most of the time I would say people are able to take what they want.</p>
<p>As for a manageable amount of classes…I would suggest to try to take about 15 credits your first semester. That is generally what the school recommends and it seems to work for most people.</p>
<p>I qualify for work study, and I’m looking to start a job in the fall. I looked on the CU Student Employment site, but I noticed there aren’t many jobs available in the fall (certainly not much to pick from). If I have to, I’ll do anything I guess, but I was wondering if someone knew how to effectively look for a job. How difficult is it to find a job at CU or in collegetown? Just as a note, I won’t be bringing a car to campus with me.</p>
<p>Hey missbillofrights.</p>
<p>To be perfectly honest I don’t know much about having a job on campus, because I haven’t had one myself. However, I know plently of people that do and it seems like there are a ton available. Ask around a little bit and keep checking online. Generally, I always see students working in the dinnign halls, library, gyms, etc. Plently of people do not have cars and you really don’t need one.</p>
<p>Are PE classes graded or on a pass/fail basis?</p>
