r/Pitt

hey there! i'm a rising junior currently enrolled in stats 1000 with kristina paris for the fall semester. i'm pulling my first 18 credit semester (11 of which are stem) and i'm worrying about the workload/difficulty for that class. i'm going to have a ton on my plate and stats is the one class this semester i would be able to drop if needed. dr paris's reviews on rmp are glowing but i'm pretty nervous for this upcoming semester 🥲 i have a little bit of stats background but i admit it probably isn't anything too much. tysm in advance!

With Anthrocon being here in Pittsburgh, I'm wondering if there is any sort of clubs or furry community at Pitt? I'm going to be a senior but I've never seen or heard of other ppl at Pitt being furries.

as an upcoming freshmen, i made my schedule with good teachers (steeleniske, belardi, etc.). In my schedule all of my classes have 50 mins or more difference between them which is good since to travel from one class to another and what not. issue is that only on fridays, i have chem recitation from 8-8:50 then right after that i got chem lecture 9-9:50 with belardi. i had no other choice with recitation timing due to my schedule. recitation is in 105 allen hall and lec is at 121 lawrence hall. is that distance like reasonable? lmk

also, i need to know what like supplies to get. aside from macbook, what i need like a folder, notebook, etc. i’m lost btw and i got steeleniske for bio 1, belardi for chem 1, psych 0010 with bates, engcmp 0212 with adedoyin, and phil 0440 with zweber. any specific advices i would appreciate it!

My wife went to Pitt and had this shirt. It is old and following apart after 20 years. Was wondering if anyone has any idea where I may look to find.
Thanks

I applied for graduate school at Pitt and got accepted ( yay!!) and planning on making the move late April early May next year. I’ve been living in Florida my whole life, not to get into here but I’m ready for change of pace! Any advice for people who have moved either from Florida or any other southern states into the Pittsburgh atea? also looking for recommendations for Vets if you want to shout them out (I have two cats!). TYIA <3

I was making my schedule earlier today and all of the Rate My Professors reviews were fairly similar for Gen Chem 1 And Bio 1 reviews. Are there any professors that I really need to avoid for those subjects? Right now I have Saoirse McSharry for Bio and Tamika Madison for Gen Chem.

incoming freshmen here for this fall. i’m pre med so I need recs on what laptop to use and for a macbook, which one works the best. never bought a macbook in my life so i need help with that.

I know welcome week and the school year don’t start for a while but I was wondering how and where to get the most and/or the best free things

Does Pitt release scores for incoming freshmen early in the portal? I keep seeing people today from other colleges receiving there scores and wondering where I would see them, I used the free AP scores send before the deadline and just wondering.

Edit: they are out if anyone is wondering
