The hell is iSci? It sounds like another ego jerk-off akin to Arts & Sci or HealthSci where they have to highlight how few people are in the program to make it seem more desirable.



Integrated Science. According to the two people I know who are part of the program, it's intense. And they never stop talkig about intense it is.

So basically it's cakewalk since they feel the need to constantly emphasize how "intense" it is.

Cool.

Also according to the faculty heirarchy, the faculty you're in is always the smartest.

Cool.
basically a new program, its one of those programs that are really hard to get in when your in highschool but once you get in, the profs will make sure you don't fail the program cause its "limited seating and only those smart hard working kids get in" basically another Hlth. Sci

OP:
personally i have no clue what i do during my break, feels like somehow the 1 hour break just disappears in a flash and im hauling my ass to my next class but defiantly got to check out that game room

You could easily waste 30-40 minutes looking for a place to sit.
It's not that bad. Go to Commons or CNH, there are couches/chairs in the corners by the windows on most floors in CNH. Bring a book.

iSci = Integrated Science
and lol, that's kind of true, actually.
The less people in it = the more people want to be in

iSCI 1A24
"...Integrates learning of essential knowledge and skills from the fundamental scientific disciplines (biology, chemistry, mathematics, physics, earth science and psychology) in the context of pertinent topics and projects. Interdisciplinary teams of instructors will teach and linkages between discipline areas will be emphasized partly through study of 'thematic modules'."

iSCI 2A18
"Integrates learning of biochemistry, biology, chemistry, earth science, mathematics, neuroscience and physics. Students will participate in individual and team research projects in field and laboratory settings and will further develop skills in research methodology, ethics, and scientific literacy."

They do ERRRTANG

Yeah, iSci is basically mac capitalizing on how popular Health Sci is. Same kind of exclusive, PBL bs.

(I say bs because I honestly don't believe in PBL)
