Hi everyone! I'm from India and I've lived in a few places across Asia/Europe but never America. I'm looking to do a masters in International Relations somewhere near NY/DC. I've traveled to the states a few times but I can't imagine living there. 
 
As far as I see it:
Pros
- big wide roads, great to drive on. 
- steak
 
Cons
- Guns. Guns everywhere. 
- commercials during televised sport
 

Besides being poorly written, the show uses "geeky" stereotypes to get general audiences laughing AT the characters, not with them. Otherwise they wouldn't need Penny as the "normal" one.

I thought you were acknowledging that Full Sail (or the "nature" of Full Sail) is making you nervous about applying to grad school. Isn't that the point of your thread? I know about Full Sail. I live near there and know many people who went there. It's expensive but it's worth it if you're serious about making movies, music or other things in the entertainment world. However, you're wasting your money if you go there for creative writing, business or computer science. That's just being honest. It's a waste of money because those degrees are offered everywhere, are much cheaper anywhere else, and are accredited almost anywhere else. It's worth it for music or movies because you get access to all the equipment. You're worried that your credits won't transfer. Isn't that in itself proof that it might not be the best place to get a computer science degree?

And, by the way, Fun-Cookie didn't really give you any information besides "talk to advisors." Brilliant stuff.

That was an extremely rude statement to start off a reply to a serious question with. Full Sail is an accredited school and has one of the top game development degree programs out there. They have students far and wide employed in almost every major game development company out there. That was my initial life goal was to be a game developer.  Upon arriving at the school I took their Physics and Linear Algebra courses and was fascinated with Physics, Computational Physics Simulation and decided that I wanted to pursue those fields more. So before you devalue someones education please do more research because that is down right rude.

Not to be an ass, but why on Earth would you go to Full Sail to get a computer science degree? I know people who went there. It's a music school. You'll learn the tricks of the trade if you want to be a Hip Hop producer, but it isn't any place you go to for a serious academic degree. I don't even know if it's accredited. 
 
Anyway, to the topic at hand. It would be hard enough getting into a Physics program with a computer science BS, but it'll be even harder with a BS from Full Sail. You need to contact the schools you're interested in and ask if your credits will transfer. Then you'll need to take the other pre-reqs you need from a local university or a community college. 
 
I'm familiar with pre-reqs since I spent three additional semesters taking pre-reqs since I was going from a linguistics BA to a computational MS. It could definitely take some time to get all the pre-reqs. It really depends on how different your undergrad degree is from your prospective grad degree. 

Its okay gnome is the resident loser of this forum. He will probably drop out during the first semester of grad school this fall.

Anyway you should talk to advisors about this at your school and grad programs that you are interested in.

I feel you. I get certain parts of grad school can be hard, but the shit people on GradCafe complain about is ridiculous. Look at the status updates on the side. You see shit like this:

Week 1: OMG soooooo stressed. Applied to 10 schools. Hope I get in.

Week 2: OMG soooooo stressed. Got into my top choice. Hope I get funding.

Week 3: OMG soooooo stressed. Got full funding. Hope I find an apartment.

Week 4: OMG soooooo stressed. Found an apartment. Hope I like my roommate.

Week 5: OMG soooooo stressed. My roommate rocks. Hope I find a parking space tomorrow.

Shut. The. Fuck. Up. Nervous much?

Mine was kind of sad, actually. I'd been volunteering as a tutor/mentor to some underprivileged middle school kids for about a year and a half, and I happened to be sitting in the computer lab next to one of them when I got the acceptance from the school I eventually ended up going to.

me: "Bryan!! I just got accepted to U of X__!!!"
Bryan, with sad-puppy-middle-school-kid look on his face: "You're leaving? (even though he knew I'd been applying to schools, I guess it just hadn't sunk in)
me, feeling incredibly guilty: "Yeah, well, I mean maybe, we'll see what happens..."
Bryan: "Well, are you happy? You should be happy. I mean, good for you."
me: *wail*

I did leave and go to school, though it was damn hard to say goodbye. I still go back and visit every few months, though, and on my last visit back one of the kids told me that he's thinking about going to grad school someday. Making me so proud :-)

Guys give it a rest. Please.

Mine has to be the one from Inglourious Basterds where Shoshanna and Fredrick Zoller kill each other in the screening room:
 

 
The way the whole scene plays in perfect sync with the track is absolutely phenomenal, especially at the moment when Shoshanna is shot.
 
Here is the full soundtrack; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pkvXsLGAxqY. I even had it as my phone's ringtone for a while.

Guys give it a rest. Please.

Not exactly venting but I have been binge-watching Parks & Rec lately and cried like a baby yesterday when Ann and Chris left the show. Why why whyyyy did they make them leave?

Guys give it a rest. Please.

I read through the whole thread (yes I am that bored). Can't help but feel sorry for Mr. Shy Guy by the end. Aah, well...

Guys give it a rest. Please.
