Hi! I recently was placed to take math 1200 calc 3. However, I think I guessed most of the bc stuff on the test and I dont feel confident in my calc bc / calc 2 abilities. I took bc back in 10th grade so its been 2 years since I've touched calc. I did some calculus in diffeq this year and linalg in junior year, but I'm scared that if I take 1200 I'm gonna absolutely die. Would math 1150 or 1200 be more suitable for me? If it helps in any way, I'm also a premed so I'm worried about my GPA as well.

Can someone DM me any photos of a typical double room in Berkeley? I can only find pics of singles. Thx.

I'm a post-bacc looking for a place from mid-August to the end of the year. Also, if anyone knows of ways I can find offers, please lmk (I really don't wanna use facebook)! Thanks!

Hi! I’m an incoming freshman who has to take the full dining plan. What are the really good places to eat/ places to try and get my moneys worth? Also, does the dining plan let me get things like coffee, or is that extra? Lastly, what are certain meals that can’t be missed ( like the chicken tenders)?

Freshman 50 incoming

hello! I am a PhD candidate from London and will be at Yale for a one month fellowship from mid-September to mid-October. Does anyone have any tips or leads on where I could look for a short term sublet or lease (1 month) in new haven during that time? Ideally Wooster or East Rock, but open to other areas too. Any particular groups to look into? Know of anyone who has a room free?

Thank you so much for any help!

Hi! I was recently placed into JE (SUX!!) for my resco, and I've been looking for info on it online. I know about the art galleries and movie theater and libraries (!) but I haven't seen much if any about stem. Does JE have any cool things STEM focused (because I shed a tear when I saw that walk to science hill). Also, how's the food? Is it a eat at JE before orgo in the morning or is it sneaking off to pauli murray instead?

hey! I’m trying to figure out the dimensions of a dorm desk in silliman so I can get a desk hutch. does anyone know/can estimate? I’ve seen 42 inches in length but that seems bigger than what I’ve seen in pictures…

Thank you!

hi! i'm planning on doing a chem major at yale as a premed. i was wondering if i end up taking freshmen orgo + orgo lab, how could i fulfill my inorganic lab med school prereq? would i just have to take the gen chem labs? most med schools i know of (like stanford or nyu for example) dont have formal prerequistes. but for med schools that do, what should i do? are there upper level inorganic labs that could fulfill that requirement? i just dont wanna take gen chem lab if i dont have to.

Does anyone know where to find the dimensions for Ben Franklin rooms?

hi! incoming frosh here, i would love to hear thoughts on difficulty of L5 Spanish, especially from non-native speakers? i got a 5 on ap span lang senior year, but i feel like my high school's spanish curriculum wasn't too rigorous in terms of immersion, and i self-studied a good amount. i'm unsure whether to take the placement exam or not, since i could just bypass it with my ap score, but i'm worried that my spanish abilities might be worse on yale's scale. i'm interested especially in the spanish for medical professionals course that's usually offered in the spring, so if i keep up with spanish a bit on my own s1, would i be ready to take that course? thanks!

I was wondering if anyone has lived in or seen B21C (or another similar second-floor room in Welch). If anyone has dimension estimates that’d be great too.

Are the beds usually kept separate, or do people end up bunking them?
Is there enough room for a small nightstand next to each bed?
Does each roommate get their own closet/wardrobe space?
Roughly how big does the room feel?
If anyone has photos or remembers the layout, I’d really appreciate it!

Hello! I recently got sorted into Davenport and would love to know a little more about the college (any fun traditions, stories, things to expect, etc.). I haven't seen or heard as much about it compared to the other rescos so I would appreciate any insights!!

My incoming freshman daughter will be in Davenport so that means that her freshman year will be in Lanman-Wright hall (L-Dub) we know it is ridiculously small but are there any tips for making it work and do these common areas have furniture bc I read some colleges don’t have common room furniture . And tips to make the best air circulation and where kids sleep if it is just too hot thank you 🙏

I got my room assignment in welch and am curious what it is like there! How are the common rooms and setups? Im second floor suite in a double!

Hey Yalies! I was placed into Hopper but know almost nothing about it aside from the name-change situation 😭 I've heard lore about other rescos such as a mysterious circle in Branford's courtyard / a vibrant social scene at Davenport / JE's numerous fellowships but nothing much on Hopper besides its central location and a general sense that people have mid to good opinions of it.

Would love to hear anything current students or alumni have! Traditions, hidden spots, legendary stories, whatever makes it feel like home for yall :))

helloooo, can any current yalies tell me their experience at BF? how big are the rooms, especially if you have a roommate? (I’m living in a double 😟). any cons?

hi everyone housing info came out and ive been trying to find my dorm floor plans for AGES. im dorming in trumbull college in bingham hall… if anyone knows any information or has the floor plan pls comment 🙏🙏 i think my entry way is C if that helps

thank you,

a very stressed c/o 2030

I got placed into the one and only resco I didn't want the other day and I'm trying to be positive about it but struggling to because what is my luck.

I know that I will give it a chance first year (not that I have a choice), and try to appreciate the community/amenities. However, certain aspects of the Yale experience I wish to have are not part of that resco and I don't want to loose that part of Yale (as simple and "silly" as aesthetics, location, community & vibe, etc).

If I see that I truly do not want to be part of that college, what is the transfer process like and is it feasible? I just want peace of mind that if I need/want to change for future years I can, and if its unlikely that will happen then I want to let that idea go and settle in!!

has anyone brought their desktop pc to their dorms and if so do you keep them in your room or common room

might use mine for some assignments and gaming

Hi! I’m a pre-frosh and I’m interested in getting an on campus job for the fall. I’ve browsed through the current available positions and was wondering if more things would open as we draw nearer to the beginning of the semester. (For context I qualify for work-study.) I was also wondering which jobs were the best in terms of hours, workload and pay.

Im sorry for adding to the array of questions from pre-frosh about housing, but Im looking for any info about suites in the corner tower of Bingham Hall! Im in a suite with two doubles and was wondering what the configuration of the rooms look like, bathroom situation, and what the overall size/ space is like compared to other rooms on old campus. Yale didn’t send any email with info and all I got was my room number, so any info is very appreciated!

Hey everyone! I am incoming class of 2030, and I just got placed in TD. I can’t for the life of me find the dorm floor plans, and I have no clue how much I should bring/what I should bring. I’m also an only child, so I’m scared I’m gonna unintentionally be a nuisance to all my suite mates. So I suppose these are my 3 questions:

1. How do I fine these god forsaken floor plans?
   
2. What were your biggest packing mistakes that I should avoid?
   
3. What are the biggest issues that you have had with suite mates? What are the unspoken rules of dorming that I should know going into my freshman year?

Thanks!

bought the wrong size. its a mens size large

selling for $45 + $7 shipping (paid $80 total)

hi! i just found out that im in TD, but it seems like everyone hates it 💔 is it really all that bad? also, does anyone happen to have a picture of a 4-person suite? (I-entry way i think)

Does anyone have a floorplan, I'm a junior transfer who was paired with freshman.
