Ah yes, forgot to ask about teachers...

AngelFuree · May 25th, 2004, 22:01

I forgot to mention who I was assigned for 102 ground school. It says in my schedule: Bjerke.
I checked UND's online directory, and apparently it's a female. (Elizabeth?)
Anyone had her before?

Also, for 103, I'm assigned Bartelson.

Just curious and bored tonight. Figured I'd ask.

So...just a little more than a week, and I'll be meeting you guys over there. (that's IF you're not partying that Saturday, in the lovely city

)

Oh, and forgot to add...
I won't be flying right away. The financial aid stuff hasn't been handled yet.
This REALLY sucks.

Icelandair · May 25th, 2004, 23:44

I've never had Beth Bjerke for a teacher so i can't say how she is.

Bartelson is really cool you'll enjoy his class. Watch out though he loves to try to convert pilots to ATC guys.

CRJDriver · May 26th, 2004, 08:06

Bartelson is a great guy, but he doesn't really teach Avit 103. He might show up for the first day of class and give an introduction, after that its just 3-4 TA's that teach.

AngelFuree · May 26th, 2004, 10:21

Cool, thanks, guys.

Hey UND Flyer, I noticed your in Aviation Management at UND and I'm visiting UND in a couple weeks. Just wondering how hard the program is to be studying in business and flying. I'm not from ND and I'm visiting just to see if it's worth it to live up there and get ratings and degree or if it matters that I don't go up there and say get a degree from Ohio State in Business since I'm from Ohio and get training around there?

CRJDriver · May 26th, 2004, 10:42

Jeremy,

The Aviation Management degree is a little harder, since you have to take classes such as Accounting I/II, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, etc. The main reason I'm doing Aviation Management is because it will allow me to have a back-up, in case I'll loose my medical or I can't get a flying job just to name a few, but I also would like to work in management and fly in the future. When are you coming to UND? I'll be here until June 25, 2004 so if you're around or if you have any other questions, feel free to e-mail me

Brutusjj · May 26th, 2004, 10:56

I'll be up June 10th to the 12th. Going to get the tour of the college and aerospace and see what kind of response I get when I ask why I should go to UND and what benefits I'll get for getting a commercial job going to UND than most students who are trying to do the same but at a FBO or some small college flight school.

I had her Bjerke for my PPL checkride. Just be prepared to work...a lot.

I had Bartleson too. He is really friendly and a hard worker. As long as you arent a dumbass, you will be fine.

Gotcha.

Icelandair · May 27th, 2004, 01:50

Spend the extra quarter and buy the full bag of popcorn for $0.50. Its pretty decent popcorn too.

roundout · May 27th, 2004, 07:21

watch that jar of powdered butter. it tastes good but god, how bad for you must it be? sick.

Brutusjj · May 27th, 2004, 15:19

I have heard from a UND student that is from where I'am, that Phys 150 is hard and that more than half the class dropped it, is that the same still or could it have been the teacher?

That class sucked, but having said that, it was really easy. I skipped half the classes, did the homework and didn't do so great on all the tests and got a B. The teacher always has a great curve in place so I almost got an A, without any effort at all.

So, my advice would to take that class right away and get it over with.

p.s. It is a much easier class in the summer.

Icelandair · May 27th, 2004, 21:05

or even better take the AP test in high school for Physics like i did and i clepped out of it and never had to take it

AngelFuree · May 27th, 2004, 21:22

Which sucks, as my school didn't offer AP Physics—only AP Chem, which I just gave up on as it wouldn't really make any difference. Boring stuff, my god.

roundout · May 27th, 2004, 22:01

you can take it at the AFB and the credits transfer over. if you don't have a car hitch a ride with someone that does and split gas. it's better than getting a D if you take it here.

Foxcow · May 30th, 2004, 15:35

I got a C in that class the first time I took it with the hard teacher. Dewar is no longer "teaching" the class. The class isnt that hard if you go every day. If you have a question, run down after class and make him/her teach you. Thats how I got through
