Class of '10 represent!

<p>Hey! Lonefreckle, I'm from Cape Cod! I didn't think anyone else from around this area (the East coast) was going all the way to USC too. What school/major are you going for?</p>

<p>I was recently taken off the Duke waitlist, so I will not be attending USC anymore as Duke was my number one choice. Have fun in SoCal!</p>

<p>Congrats on going to Duke! I hope you are happy there.</p>

<p>I just got into the fall (from originally being a spring admit) so I'll see you all in September!! I'm really excited to be there for everthing, especially the football. =)</p>

<p>FIGHT ON!</p>

<p>^ Congratulations!!! :) I hope to see you in the fall.</p>

<p>Whoooo-hooooo! Massachusetts all the way!</p>

<p>BTW, all of you should post your decision to attend USC on the Master Decision thread in the Parents Forum.</p>

<p>Some advice for 2010 class "fresh meat":
-Good luck with WRIT 140 class; it is taught by a graduate students and they are VERY tough when it comes to grading; out of 16 students in the class, 2-3 end up with an A.
-If you're pre-med and will be taking Chem 105a, MAKE SURE you go to SI (supplementary instruction) three times a week if you have to. Pre-med classes are intensive and very competitive (a lot of smart asian kids in the class), and only 10% of students usually get an A. SI sessions are taught by students who previously took the class and aced it and they'll make you understand the material more.
-For business school students: Good luck with the grading curve that Marshall has. You want an A in the class, do less partying and more studying, otherwise your GPA will be so low that you won't know what hit you.</p>

<p>that's all...don't stress...but give your best</p>

<p>Do most freshman take WRIT 140 their first semester? </p>

<p>And random question, If I want to minor in business, should I take the math placement test at orientation?</p>

<p>YES, but there are others who take it the second semester. If you feel overwhelmed, take WRIT 140 and GE cat. VI in the Spring</p>
