<p>Has anyone heard whether they have been accepted into the integrated science program? You were supposed to be notified before 9/1 to facilitate registration. Thanks.</p>
<p>the email they sent to me said you had to apply by 9/1 and that you would be notified shortly afterwards.</p>
<p>Where did you get your info? I haven't even sent my application!</p>
<p>Go to the genomics institute's web site (or search princeton.edu) for integrated science undergraduate. They have extended the application deadline to 9/1 with a notification shortly thereafter. Earlier they wanted the application by 8/1. My D applied earlier and we were curious.</p>
<p>So I guess they didn't receive many applications by the original deadline, then?</p>
<p>I'm sorry I'm a 10'er and could anyone explain what this integrated science program is?</p>
<p>ilovemath - hm, or possibly they thought not everyone had received it yet. I didn't get access to my email until really late</p>
<p>This 'double credit' course means that in every respect it counts as two classes right?</p>
<p>And does this class go into evenings?</p>
<p>Yup mea it goes pretty late into the evenings - check ec1234's posts in this link</p>
<p>Sounds intense!</p>
<p>I didn't even get my email till a week ago but for the first time in my life, I've finished the essayson time. Yay :)</p>
<p><em>sigh</em> I've decided not to go for it. There's just a lot of stuff I want to do that I need that time for.</p>
<p>last year they had a meeting early in orientation week (before registering for classes) to try to ensure that everyone knew what they were getting into.</p>
<p>if you have any questions, the professors will be more than happy to talk with you, just email them (or if you're trying botstein, then his secretary faith) or calling.</p>
<p>sent the application :)</p>
<p>mea, same with me... I was thinking about taking Integrated at first, but it just takes up so much of your schedule.</p>
<p>if you were going to be a science or engineering major, its not really more of your schedule than is already filled-- you would take chem, physics, and cos as an engineering major, so you're saving a class. As a science major a lot of people take two science classes freshman year anyway. You're going to needto take both chem and physics at some point.</p>
<p>ec, I am leaning toward a math major, but I like science, too. Integrated just seemed like a lot of work on top of the math classes that I want to take.</p>
<p>yeah, for a math major it may not be the most direct route</p>
<p>ilovemath, which math class(es) are you taking this fall?</p>
<p>I'm planning on taking MAT 214 in the fall. If that goes well, then either 203 or 217 in the spring.</p>
<p>214 is a really cool course! Especially if Ramin's still teaching it.</p>
<p>Yeah, according to the registrar, Ramin Takloo-Bighash is teaching it this year. So he's a good professor?</p>
<p>Oh yes. He likes to be called Ramin because no one can pronounce his last name. He explains everything really clearly (there was only one proof I wasn't able to follow as he did it on the board, but then, I still haven't figured that one out). The homework is sometimes tough, and you are at the mercy of the grad student who is unlucky enough to be grading proofs, but it's manageable. Best of all though, Ramin's exams are really, really easy. The midterm was one sheet, 5 questions, none of which were proofs - those are covered in the homework, whereas in the exam he likes to just see if you know the stuff you're supposed to. The final was comparable. You also get a short research paper, but he grades that very leniently too. So all in all, you'll have a great time, especially if your username is true :).</p>
