<p>I’m far too “academically ready” than to engage in a confrontation with someone who matters none to this forum section whatsoever.</p>
<p>do you actually ever HELP anyone? or do you just constantly attack individuals?</p>
<p>you must live in a bubble where “being grateful” is not defined in the dictionary in any of your public libraries, how ironic that uctransfer2012’s initial rant has some truth to it. </p>
<p>Sureeeee, stick up for the ungrateful’s and bash the ones with morals and values and know the meaning of being blessed to be in the position they are in - academically.</p>
<p>Hahahahahaha! I remember hearing a few people at orientation (at ucd) whining about how they got rejected from some other UC or “I got in but I went here instead!” </p>
<p>That was about the lamest thing I remember about orientation tbh</p>
<p>how can i help someone that decided to make a post I hate whiners in a UC transfer thread. </p>
<p>The point of a forum is to exchange in discussion on a topic. It is not to be biased to the original thought processes are. I am just giving my thoughts to the matter instead of “omg I know, that is soooo stupid of them”</p>
<p>So if a student is whining about being at a particular institution, they have the right to do so. No one knows what that individual is/was/will be going through to <em>rant and rave</em></p>
<p>So what they got into an elite university. Do you think for a second that there is NO ****<em>ing and moaning at MIT or Caltech how hard it is? What if you got into U.Chicago and realize you can’t stand the brutal winters. You would be *whining</em> too</p>
<p>You should own up to your choice if you are choosing to go there. Be Grateful for what you have and not be upset about it, because thats the way YOU chose it to be or is that too much to ask?</p>
<p>UCkittychen is absolutely right, stop sticking up for ungrateful people. i doubt they’d do the same to you</p>
<p>Just let them complain, they have a right to. Just because they got into that good school doesn’t mean the school was right for them, but how were they suppose to know it wouldn’t be right for them? I know this because I go to MCPHS in Boston and I don’t like it here not because I’m ungrateful, but because I don’t have friends that I really fit in with, that I always feel so lost so depressed here that I’m away from my family and friends at home, that there’s nothing to do here most of the time, and many other things. I’m grateful I came here in sense that I realized this school is not for me and I do plan on transferring back to California community college because I know this isn’t for me. For the twist, they make you think that it’s a good school and none of the negatives are revealed, but many of the people go here do not like the school, it may be different case for UCs, but it still applies to so many schools. Also, you don’t know if some of these kids got forced to go to the school they went to, maybe they wanted to go somewhere else, but parents wanted them to go there. You don’t know their full stories, so don’t bash them when you only look at it from one side. Sometimes people whine, so that they can get their frustration out and vent, let them do their own thing. You make it seem as if it’s just an easy black or white question, oh you could have gone to the school or not, there are still many factors…</p>
<p>As a medical student at a U.S. medical school I knew that I was one lucky guy. I was fortunate enough to be part of the tiny remnant of people who had entered college with hopes of becoming a doctor that was actually going to be a doctor. Nevertheless, the reality of being a medical student is so harsh that I doubt there was anyone in my class that at some point did not complain how awful their life was. </p>
<p>Although it smacks of a lack of gratitude, I think it is probably human nature for people to complain about a very difficult situation they are in, even if it was by their own choice. Everybody tells you how tough medical school is but there is no way of knowing how tough until you have actually experienced it. People will put themselves in very demanding situations to achieve a goal and I think it is unrealistic to expect them never, at times, to express some frustration about the problems they face.</p>
<p>I never expected any one to never be upset or angry, i mean its only human. I would just home those ungrateful(people who complain ll the time) people would just show and ounce of graciousness. I am not here to convince anyone of thinking the same, because them being ungrateful is only hurting themselves.</p>
<p>I think they would better understand the situation if they went to community college and saw the vast amount of people doing countless hours of work around the clock just to get to where they already are. People can be angry, shout and whine, but the sooner they realize their accomplishment, the happier they will be. There will always be better or different colleges then yours, don’t trash the one your at just because you didn’t get in somewhere else. This is just my 2 cents, take it or leave it haha. Good luck everyone who is trying to transfer this year!! This is the home stretch. :)</p>
<p>uctransfer2012, its okay pal. one thing you have to learn about CC, you can’t rant or voice your own deep opinions. to keep from all the disagreement from people, just keep it on a neutral level, because you will always seem like you’re the only one who feels the way you do, thats what I have learned over my timeline here.</p>
<p>@uckittychen Sounds like a good plan, i guess i should just keep neutral to keep on the good side of other cc’ers. seems like everyone was against me lol. yea staying neutral from now on. Good luck with your transferring endeavors uckittychen we worked hard for this haha</p>
<p>Depending on one’s personality, they are going to complain no matter what. With that said, I think we all should take a quick second to realize how lucky we are to have been born or naturalized or seek to have a student visa in pursuit of a real luxury. Some countries don’t even have clean water while the state of California alone has 3 enormous and well renowned higher educational systems.
So you may not like your school, you may not like the massive amounts of studying? It’s hard work, no doubt. But the fact remains that most of us aren’t born with a silver spoon and will HAVE to find a career and although it’s getting tougher and more expensive some sort of a ladder to a more wealthy life exists. Don’t make it a habit to diss the system that is most people’s only chance to have a comfortable life.</p>
<p>Peeps gon’ complain. Especially frosh/soph/college-aged kids. It’s not worth your time to care, so just ignore them and do your best. I mean, really - what more can you do?</p>
<p>Anyway, everyone needs to rant once in awhile.</p>
<p>Remember when you were 18 and clueless… I just don’t like it when members start talking like the whole board has been waiting for them to sign up.</p>
<p>and they are gonna just keep coming uct with the same response, it gets so annoying. see what i mean. just keep your opinion to yourself ha because they are gonna a. gonna keep coming with the typical ; b. try to break you down off of your own words.</p>
