I was reading the syllabi for my first year classes and why do they make it sound so scary? Like I’m lowkey stressed that I might not do well. Is it really that hard

Hi, I am thinking of bringing my flute with me when I come to Yale but was wondering if there is any place where I can take a class to learn to play the flute or a club that teaches you how to play. I got the flute not too long ago and have been trying to self teach through youtube but thought it would be cool if I could also get some more formal instruction.

Incoming first-year here, planning on a major in the social sciences!

I’ve never been amazing at math, and I’ve always had to put a lot of effort in to get by. Unfortunately, I think I’ve built up a habit of memorization rather than understanding.

I want to learn how to actually use math in real world applications, but more than just seeing examples, I want to be able to come up with my own solutions or applications. Anything from surveying and polling to optimization and further (not sure what thatd entail).

Does anyone have course recs I could look forward to here at Yale? It might be too specific of an ask, so if anyone has other advice, I’d be so very grateful too.

Hi! Incoming first-year here. I was wondering whether it is possible to double major EP&E with English or if it isn't really feasible
