Been going back n forth with this thought for the last 2 yrs. I'm going back to school to get my masters in clinical psychology, child/adolescent clinical psychology concentration at Montclair State Univ....Computer Science is nice, but I've been fighting a calling for a minute now.

she in the graduate program?

Yup.

What you using to prepare? I'm pissed there are no real practice tests for this shyt :mindblown:

I'm using Magoosh. They have a special for the premium version which has lesson plans, practice question & tests, video explanations, score predictor, a whole lot of stuff for $99 until Wednesday. They also do GRE too.

I'm not gonna really start studying hardcore for it until after the semester is over though.

Aw yes...i forgot all about college...that means winter graduations...that means January and February...need to tell HR to start finding us some "recenter college graduates"


LOL at these poor fools thinking they have a chance...

Me: So I see you have your MCITP...CCNA...RHEL cert...:leon:
Recent college male graduate with computer science degree: Yes Sir:youngsabo:

Me: So tell me about your experience...what companies have you worked for :obama:

College male who really thinking he is getting this job: Well I just graduated from college...but i did an intern ship at blah blah blah...:pachaha:

Me: So let me get this straight...you've never really done corporate IT...but you have all these certs...How did you get all these certs without any real-world expereince? Are you just a paper tiger...:pacspit:

College male: UUUHHH...well...uuuhhh I...:sadbron:

For females they don't even get that far...if they don't dress slutty enough we just ask them super technical stuff we know they don't know to get them out of there...

We have to take notes over interviews we do...the problem is that once we go back to HR we don't have to show them the notes, we just have to mark a checkbox that says "did you take notes on the candidates". and then we just make up some random B.S. But during the interview we would take notes...this one guy...no lie...would have notes like this...

"Titties not big enough"
"Titties to saggy"
"Sound like a bytch"
"To many pimples"

We interviewed this bad spanish chick once and the dude just drew a giant pair of breast and then held the paper up to me, while we were still interviewing this check like :jawalrus::krs: She was sitting to the left of me so she could see it, but she couldn't quite figure out what it was. I was like...:snoop::deadmanny:

Good luck kids...it's a jungle out there...

You like abusing your power little man? Do you get a kick out of being a sociopath?

This is probably one of the realist post on here.. muthafukkas better freelance before showing up for an interview.

bytches.. I feel like bytches get further than you say. They don't get the job, but people will waste their time speaking with them.

MATH 428 Differential Equations II: A
MATH 458 Intro to Real Analysis II: B

My independent study grade isn't up yet, but I'm sure I got an A. It doesn't matter that much tho. It was only for one credit, and with these grades alone, at least I got my pitiful GPA up to a more respectable (but still very mediocre) level. :blessed:

Last semester, I was PISSED about getting a B in Real Analysis. But this time, I'm actually OK with it. Real II is significantly harder (and Real I is hard as shyt as it is :merchant:), and I found out that NO ONE got an A in Real last semester. My B+ was actually the highest grade in the class. :bryan:

Plus, I'm just glad I survived Real II with a semi-decent grade. nikkas avoid that shyt like the plague (there were only three people in the class), and I made it. I'ma be somebody mama! :to:

Diff Eq was easy as shyt, but there were a bunch of lazy bums in that class that didn't do the work. Whatever. I'll still take that A tho. :yeshrug:
