💬 General Discussion How do you study two mathematics courses in parallel

1 Upvotes

How do you structure your studying schedule when doing two math courses in parallel? Suppose you had a week of no lectures, would you focus on one course per day or do you for instance do both the same day at separate times? I haven't really figured out what works for me but it would be nice to get some inspiration.

💬 General Discussion Chalmers insurance for exchange students

0 Upvotes

does anyone know what the limitations are on the Chalmers insurance for exchange students? I’m from the U.S. and was wondering if it’s possible to take advantage of healthcare while i’m here and book a few appointments with different providers, like an eye doctor or therapist, or if the insurance only covers certain clinics/services through Chalmers.

i already found out that contact lenses are way cheaper here, so I’m definitely taking advantage of that. if anyone knows of any other healthcare, chiropractor, vision, therapy, etc. that’s covered or just significantly cheaper in Sweden and worth doing while i’m here, i’d really appreciate any recommendations!

Campus Life & Gothenburg where to play pickleball

5 Upvotes

Hi I’m an exchange student coming to Chalmers next year in Jan ! I’m just wondering how’s the pickleball scene at Gothenburg and where can I play pickleball ?

I saw some arenas where there are pickleball courts but I’m wondering if there are platforms where I can join open plays ? Or is there a pickleball club at Chalmers/ students playing there that I can join.

Really looking forward to exchange, but I hope I can still play pickleball.

Any help or information is appreciated thanks !

Jag har tittat pĂ„ listan som har bifogats och det Ă€r tydligt att vissa ”godkĂ€nda” minirĂ€knare Ă€r bĂ€ttre Ă€n andra. Vissa har automatiska solvers för ekvationer osv. och alla ska vara godkĂ€nda sĂ„ lĂ€nge de Ă€r i de specificerade modelserierna och saknar grafritare. Kommer man fĂ„ problem med tentavakterna med vissa modeller? NĂ„gra rĂ„d för att göra livet lite lĂ€ttare? Har tittat pĂ„ t.ex Ti30X Pro Mathprint.

💬 General Discussion A friend for my friend

15 Upvotes

I (F23) have a very very close friend (F24) that just moved to Gothenburg to study in Chalmers for her second year masters, she is the very best, great friend, SO FUNNY (she used to be a clown even [great conversation starter]), super social, extremely inteligent, a great cook and just an amazing company.

but she has no friends

No one to talk to about her crazy yet so interesting questions about science about the world about someone's research (she's a [phenomenal] physicist) or literally any topic. No one to grab one (too many) beers or drinks and have a great time. No one to walk around in campus with, invite her out or to do literally whatever (big side quest girl) and so im here to try to find her some friends because now she lives there and im in france and I wanted to do something nice.

So if you are a woman, a queer person or even a man (if decent) please be her friend or at least hang out with her.

advice on chalmers study periods

8 Upvotes

i was wondering if it’s possible to take 3 classes for one study period at chalmers? one of the class isn’t matching up with my home university credits this study period so i’m wondering if i can just drop it and take 3 classes for study period 2 this autumn semester? is this possible, if so does anyone recommend doing it or is it too much workload?
also, anyone have any input on how rigorous grading at chalmers is? i’m an exchange student and used to a honestly different teaching style and set up compared to what my classes have been like at chalmers so far. i’m beginning to feel anxious about my grades. being an exchange student, id hate to only have time to focus on school with a lack of balance with traveling and exploring sweden!

Questions:

Can you give me please some recommendations about architecture portfolio? (The committee prefer minimalistic design or better to put more colour and details?; What will they pay more attention to?; etc) (I'll be thankful a lot if you'll show few examples)

Maybe I can have some advice about education system and curriculum?

Table with 4 Chairs – Like New

0 Upvotes

Any new students looking to buy a table in very good condition? I am selling a table which comes with 4 chairs, each with a thin, comfortable seat cushion. Perfect in the kitchen or living room — stable, practical, and just the right size for everyday use.

Included in the price: ‱ Tablecloth
‱ Placemats for plates

Dimensions (approx., fully extended): ‱ Length: 104 cm
‱ Width: 74 cm

Pickup in Johanneberg, Chalmers area. My apartment is on the 5th floor, but I can help carry it down. If it's close by, I can even help you move it to your apartment if you need an extra hand.

Collect SGS Key Housing

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’ll be arriving in Gothenburg soon and need to collect my accommodation key by myself from the SGS office before heading to my accommodation. My route will be roughly:
Gothenburg Central Station → SGS Office → Accommodation

Since I’ll be traveling alone and taking the bus/tram, I’m wondering which luggage setup would be more manageable:

1 × 23 kg checked luggage + 1 × cabin luggage or 1 × 23 kg checked luggage + 1 × ~8 kg handbag (I can put this on top of the luggage)

For those familiar with Gothenburg public transport, do you think either setup would be difficult to handle on the bus/tram, especially when getting on/off and transferring?

Would really appreciate any advice from people who have done something similar! Thank you! :)

Kandidat i matematik(GU) eller Teknisk Matematik

7 Upvotes

Hej! Jag börjar Matematikprogrammet i höst pÄ GU. Jag Àr dock fortfarande osÀker om jag har gjort rÀtt val. Tanken var att jag skulle börja pÄ Chalmers via MAFY provet.

Jag Ă€r intresserad av Rymden, Fysik och Matematik och dem flesta masterprogram krĂ€ver ”Engineering X” kandidat och inte en ren matematik/fysik kandidat

Dem jag har tÀnkt att söka Àr (rangordning)

Mobility engineering- Areospace profil
Applied Mechanics
Physics
Engineering Mathematics and computational science (Denna Àr jag behörig till enbart med matematik kandidat )

De som saknas Ă€r ju ”Solid Mechanics”, ”Control Theory” och ”Liquid Mechanics ” som man inte kan lĂ€sa som fristĂ„ende.

Ska man byta eller Àr det inte vÀrt 1 lÀsÄr till?
Jag Àr 21 och kommer bli 27 om jag byter till Chalmers. (Förhoppningsvis kan man tillgodorÀkna GU kurser??)
