@FlutteringSqueamishPuffin: I did english which wasn't too difficult, but if I could go back I would have taken easier electives for free A's because I originally thought the school was gonna actually care about the rigor of my electives, but they just want to see a high number -.-
@Bullmoose8: God, would I love to meet you one day.
@Bullmoose8: a fucking pig is acting all pretenious and mighty. You got a 3.1 you probably did criminal justice. Fucking hilarious.
@StrongBrashDingo: yo dont let @Bullmoose8 see you say that. He will take it personally and talk shit for some reason. Hes compensating, its common for police officers to act like that.
@Bullmoose8: It's actually hilario0us that you think a gpa is reflective. You wouldn't pass organic chemistry. This is rich, a fucking cop is acting like a cunt for someone making a valid observation about Major difficulty not being a factor in the admissions process. You so clearly are going to be the gunner that everyone hates.
@Bullmoose8: good luck man! Hopefully youre not working as a cop anymore, if youre like this online I can only imagine how you treat citizens. Oink oink.
20:57
@FlutteringSqueamishPuffin: that was a reasonable response that focused solely on the issue. I’m glad the internet brought us together.
@Bullmoose8: dude youre a cop with a 3.1 who started all of this to a reasonable response to false information many students heard from advisors. You werent a part of said conversation but as per usaul, cops like to take things personally, just keep your mouth shut when no one is talking to you :)
13:09
@FlutteringSqueamishPuffin: my bad dude, I’ll just see my way out of the private conversation you had in an open chat room.
13:20
Will probably be withdrawing tomorrow, have to move on to my other option. Best of luck to you all, and wish those on the waitlist good luck throughout the process!

@Semi: yeah goodluck, sorry FSU did you dirty tho :(
14:08
@FlutteringSqueamishPuffin: I stand by the point, but do you man. instead of improving your app stay mad and keep yelling at the internet.
14:26
