UCR FastStart

<p>aww yay:D did you only take pre- cal? ahh cal sounds hard but good thing we will be taking math in fast start so it should prepare us:)</p>

<p>noo i took IB Math studies, but it was a little calc and mostly statitics and stuff:/ Yea i kno im so happy because i was scared that i would be soo lost when i got to calc lol</p>

<p>wow i didnt even know that math class exsited lol:) hah you;ll do fine in cal:)</p>

<p>Wow, I should be embarrassed. I got placed into Math 8A too and I took an A.P. Calculus class in high school (which was one of the hardest classes I ever had).</p>

<p>Hey, quick question, I’m 18 years old, should my parents still sign the FastStart contracts/papers?</p>

<p>@angel0407
Omg you shouldn’t at least you got placed into a math lol:) no your parents don’t need to sign them they don’t even have to go to the orientation on the 25th:)</p>

<p>@lovebambi
Haha, thanks for making me feel better :). Could my parents still go to the orientation on the 25th?</p>

<p>@angel0407
haha:) see i on the other hand have to take an intermediate course:0 so yea be super happy:) yea of course they can:D</p>

<p>@lovebambi
Thanks. You should be happy too, just see the course in a positive way, it’s going to prepare you even more for college level Calculus. That’s the way I see it with the course I got. I had a lot of trouble in my high school Calculus class mainly because I had weak skills in trig and algebra. So the couse I got will help me with that.</p>

<p>@angel0407
yea yourr right thankyou:) well if i pass the course which im sure i will since i do get math, i will be out in 8a so im happy:) i did really good in my pre-cal class A’s on both semester but i felt like the MAE was mmostly algebra 2 and oh gosh i had a horrible teacher for that class so i never actually understood it :confused: but heyy fast start is going to help us in math soo yippie:)</p>

<p>@lovebambi Thanks=^.^=</p>

<p>@Anyone accepted to FastStart</p>

<p>How did you write it?</p>

<p>@angel0407 umm I was confused too. But I wrote it like this: </p>

<p>UCR/UCLA Thomas Haider Program
in Biomedical Sciences
1626 Statistics Bldg
Riverside, CA 92521-0121</p>

<p>I just hope she gets it but to be on the safe side maybe you should add her name on top but I think that address is fine. =^.^=</p>

<p>i sent mine in last tuesday i didnt write her name i just wrote the address:O lol imma call and ask if she got it:)</p>

<p>@lovebambi when you call her, can you tell me if she recieved it?!</p>

<p>@queenivie
Ok so i called Tuesday and she didn’t pick up. I called yesterday and she said that she had not received it yet and asked when had i sent it. i told her i sent it last tuesday she said it would probably get there today or tomorrow because of fourth of july:/</p>

<p>so how was orientation … how was petland?</p>

<p>@lovebambi ook koolio, i think i’ll call next week to see if she gets it.</p>

<p>Orientation was great!!! i met so many new people and i registered for class. There were alot of fun activities but it was just the lectures that were boring. We were touring the campus but i was so lost lol. I’m glad im going to faststart so ill get to know the school better and get to meet more people. but youll have soo much fun!! Pentland Hills was great, its really good for privacy because you don’t have to share the bathroom with soo many people.you dont have to bring linen but the cover they give you is pretty light.</p>

<p>@queenivie
:slight_smile: oh gosh, im scared to register cuz all the classes i want are basically all taken:( wait why do we have lectures? lol ohh how many people will you share the bathroom with? oh ok because at fast start you do have to take your own linen:) do you think we’ll get to pick roommates at fast start or they just assign you one?</p>

<p>Yea that is true :(but if you join a learning community they will already have your classes for you for a year, and youll get chem, eng, math, and one more class if you want. They have some lectures to talk about housing, how to use growl and other things for school. i share with four people, so not to shabby lol. i think they may assign it but also if you come at the same time with the person you want to room with, i bet they will let you if you ask, because have a small group=^.^=</p>

<p>@queenivie gahh:( wait are you in a learning community cuz i dont know if i should get in one:O yeaa yourr right , its alright lol:D hahha we are a very small group so i guess we could :slight_smile: i mean i dont mind them picking our roomates you know but if llike magically we just make like a friend right in the begginign i think it’ll be cool to room with them:))</p>
