<p>I have credits to place me out of Calc I, Calc 3, and Differential Equations. I have to take calc 2 because GT does not offer AP to place out of that. So, I was thinking to take calc 1 1st semester and then calc 2 2nd semester (because I have to) to ease me into the college lifestyle 1st semester, and so I know what to expect of GT math come 2nd semester (when I have to take a required math). Do you think that is a good idea OR should I just take calc 2 1st semester and diff eq 2 (or some other math beyond diff eq 1) 2nd semester? (I am an materials science major).</p>
<p>Where are the directions posted? I think incoming Freshmen can only register classes at one of the FASET? Is that correct?</p>

<p>Toward the bottom</p>
<p>You can only register at FASET. If you do not choose to attend FASET you must register after all the FASETs with everyone else and without the knowledge of how to do it. Some FASET leaders will even show you a course scheduler which is great. The two I know of are </p>
<p>Couse Off - Which allows you to create an account, pick a semester, and start searching for classes. You can see a visual of when all your classes are offered and try to make the best schedule possible. Then all you have to do it put their course numbers into OSCAR.</p>
<p>Course Shark - Course Shark lets you know when a spot opens up in a closed course on Oscar. It has definitely helped me snag closed classes.</p>
<p>When I was a student, I always liked [url=<a href=“http://www.troybrant.net/reg/]EasyReg[/url”>http://www.troybrant.net/reg/]EasyReg[/url</a>], though the ones GTSweetie mentioned seem to be more advanced.</p>
<p>So, in essence, is FASET a sort of “race” to see who can get their courses first? How many people are there in a group and, on average, how many seats do they open for that group per course?</p>
<p>I’m just curious how bad final senior grades have to be for an acceptance to be revoked.
I do well in other classes, mostly A’s, one or two B’s. But I am concerned with this one class(only a semester long). I got a C+ 3rd qtr and 4th not too sure.
lets say i end up with a C avg, should i even be worried? what if a D avg?</p>
<p>it has been bothering me lately…maybe it’s not even a big deal tht I should be hung over about</p>
<p>Tech does revoke admissions, so it’s not something to ignore. What it would take to have an offer pulled is not something anyone can answer here.</p>
<p>i’m asking generally.
is one C something to be concerned about.
or if there’s multiple grade drops from more than one class.
that’s something someone can answer here</p>
<p>This thread was very helpful indeed.</p>
<p>Can you provide me approximate figures of the money i can earn during a co-op work term. I’m an international student and it’s pretty difficult for me to afford the tuition fee so the pay from the co-op work is very important for me to support my studies. Please tell me how many maximum semesters can i opt for as the working term and do i have to pay the tuition fee during the semester I’m working.</p>
<p>thank a lot in advance.</p>
<p>You do not pay tuition while working as a co-op. </p>
<p>Pay as a co-op can range. $15/hr (so about $9000 per semester) is probably a good estimate, but you’ll see salaries range from $10/hr (about $6000 per semester) to $30/hr (about $18000 per semester). But remember you’ll pay US taxes on that, and you’ll have to pay to live where ever your co-op company is located. Also, it’s not guaranteed. You might not find a company to hire you. </p>
<p>You usually co-op for 3 or 4 semesters (under the current system) while in college.</p>
<p>Thanks a lot for the help… You guys are the best :)</p>
<p>do investment banks recruit at the engineering school?</p>
<p>A few of the banks come to campus, but none target GT. Similarly, all of MBB consulting come to campus, but none target GT. An interesting thing is that these traditional MBA employers seem to primarily target the engineers (undergraduate and PhD, not so much the MS level).</p>
<p>I am a senior considering GT for Chemical Engineering. I would appreciate if you could comment on the rigor of the program and on its standing. If you could compare with the BME program that would be helpful.</p>
<p>@BanjoHitter, can you explain in details about banks coming to GT, but none target GT? I thought it would be enough for a bank to come to a school. The students will then have to do the rest for a job, am I right? Do you know which banks do come to GT?</p>
<p>Banks have three types of schools: primary targets, secondary schools, and non-targets. At a primary target, the company plans to hire X number of students from that school. At a secondary school they will visit and interview, but will only hire if they see someone special. A non-target is a school they do not visit and you submit a resume online.</p>
<p>At a non-target, it is very very difficult to get hired unless you know someone. Otherwise your resume is grouped with 10,000 others and you have to pray that it stands out to someone. At a target school, the company has already planned to hire from that school, so all you need to be is one of the top students at that school to get hired. At a secondary school (like Tech), the company will come and may or may not hire. So you don’t just have to be a top student at Tech, you have to be an outstanding student overall.</p>
<p>As far as BB banks that come to campus (this list is in no way correct - it’s just me going off memory from job postings I recall from the last few years): Merrill Lynch, Barclays, Citi, Morgan Stanley, JP Morgan. So that’s about half of them. I also know that many non-BB investment banks come to campus.</p>
<p>Being at a secondary school is good, though. There’s not many of them. And if you want to go to a primary target, you’re looking at Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, MIT, and a few other schools that are very expensive and very difficult to get in.</p>
