Esquimalt Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 Better get those grades up if you want into school and continue into grad school. Super important. I learned the hard way and failed out of college to only go back years later for my undergrad and grad degrees. Much easier at a younger ageWhat did you go to grad school in?

MR.SNOWMIZER Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 Maybe some potential end of the month into early February. I would love a cold first half of February and then some nice early spring weather. Like this for Tim. 2 Quote We come from the land of the ice and snow.

SilverFallsAndrew Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 I'm looking at WSU and Whittier (Los Angeles)-- and of course OSU and UofO. Part of my irritation on the weather front definitely stems from other life issues (I don't think I'm the only one that can say that) including horrifically bad grades the past year or so, so I'm a bit worried if any of those colleges will accept me haha Too much time spent on online weather forums? 2 Quote Snowfall Precip 2022-23: 95.0" 2022-23: 17.39" 2021-22: 52.6" 2021-22: 91.46" 2020-21: 12.0" 2020-21: 71.59" 2019-20: 23.5" 2019-20: 58.54" 2018-19: 63.5" 2018-19: 66.33" 2017-18: 30.3" 2017-18: 59.83" 2016-17: 49.2" 2016-17: 97.58" 2015-16: 11.75" 2015-16: 68.67" 2014-15: 3.5" 2013-14: 11.75" 2013-14: 62.30 2012-13: 16.75" 2012-13: 78.45 2011-12: 98.5" 2011-12: 92.67" It's always sunny at Winters Hill!

Phil Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 It's basically almost too late at this point for any appreciable increase (or decrease). I've pretty much accepted my failings.Bro, I dropped out of high school as a senior, went back and got my GED, then went to community college for an associate’s degree before transferring to UMD the BS/MS (which I’m still working on). You’re already better off than I was at your age. Oh, and I got put on academic probation during my first semester at college. So I’ve been through it all. But seriously..f**king Los Angeles? Do you want your passion for weather to die completely? Go somewhere that will enable your passions, not kill them. LA sucks. And so do liberal arts schools. 5 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnarkyGoblin Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 It's basically almost too late at this point for any appreciable increase (or decrease). I've pretty much accepted my failings.If you go to Whittier, have a plan earlish on what you want to do after graduation. I went to a liberal arts school - I wouldn't exactly call it a way to find a job straight out of there. Also, grades are not everything for college admission. Don't fret too hard, but also don't slack because you think everything has been decided already. That's a hole you don't want to be in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's unbelievable that we ration out economic success to people based on their grades as idiot adolescents well before their brains are even done developing. That being said, the idea many teenagers have that you need to get into a high end college right out of High School in order to live a successful life is untrue, especially if you have a support system around you.

Omegaraptor Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 Most likely option for me is OSU. I once got a letter from MSU in Bozeman, which also sounds good. Definitely want to stay out west and in-state is much more affordable than out of state. Not sure about major yet but computer science is a probable option. Ideally I'd like to have a job someday where I can work remotely and I'm not tied to a specific location. I've considered UW and UC Davis as well, but both have very high out of state tuition. My GPA is in the 3.75 range, if anyone wants to know. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeBC Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 This arctic front is somewhat impressive due to the strong pressure gradient. Hope BC went down to 11F from the peak of the day at 33F (11am). Abbotsford dropped to 22F from 35F within 4 hours with a band of heavy snow.
