To be honest, I’m only at Rieber Hall when I need to like…sleep/change. But socially? It’s not dead. There are some floors that are more social than others. And yeah, the people are nice in general.

Hi. I hope you're having fun vacationing.. anyways, I have a question.. do you think it will be harder for a UC student to transfer to another UC school? Or will it be easier to transfer into a UC from a cali state school...? thank you!

It is easier to transfer from a Cal State to a UC. I believe it’s mentioned on the UC website somewhere.

hi. I recently got into UCSD (I know you don't go there, but please give me some advice anyway ><) and I want to study Finance/business, but UCSD is famous for its science and engineering programs. Do you think I should still go there? Thank you!

In my opinion, it doesn’t really matter what a school is famous for. Study whatever you’d like - the important part is how well you fit in, how happy you are where you study, etc. :)

Hi Tasha, I've been wondering. What do you need to do to become a dermatologist? I've had an interest in it since I was 12 but I've had no idea what to do help move towards it except prosper in Science and Math. I'm afraid I won't even be able to go towards that dream because I effed up my freshman year by getting a 2.67 overall GPA. :/ Even if it's unrealistic for me to continue what do you need to do? Thank you for answering, if you do! [:

In order to become a dermatologist, you’ll need to attend medical school and then specialize in dermatology. You don’t necessarily need to attend a great university in order to get into medical school, but you will need to have excellent grades in the university you attend in order to get into medical school (3.5+ GPA). You will be required to complete basic science/math/English courses and take the MCAT. :) It’s not unrealistic, just work on your study habits!

what did you get on the SAT, and what did you do to get ready for it?! :)

2070 - not too impressive, I know! But all I did was use a Princeton Review prep book for the SAT. Didn’t use all of it - just sort of glanced over the math section. I could have done better if I did all the exercises.

I'm very sorry to bother you but I really need help!! I'm still a student at high school but I need help on deciding what degree to take. I'm hoping to go into medicine/or work in a lab but don't know which courses to take? Advise please :(

Get a degree in what you’re passionate about. There are lots of options! You don’t necessarily need to get a degree in science to go into medicine or research. As for which courses to take, you’ll need to take basic chemistry, biology, physics, and math courses as well as some English courses. You will be advised when you apply to universities and such. Don’t worry!

how many hours of sleep do you often get because youre so busy at school?

I sleep so much.

Honestly, as long as you manage your time well, there is no reason as to why you should deprive yourself of sleep. I think I get an average of 8 hours of sleep/night.
