University of Alabama at Birmingham Top Questions

What kind of person should not attend University of Alabama at Birmingham?

Katlyn

Someone that isn't ready to work hard and study most of their free time. If they are that kind of person that is lazy and a procrastinator they might very well need to reconsider. Also someone who likes personal, one on one, time. Most of the classes are pretty big so that one on one is hard to come by.

Savannah

People that cannot comfortably keep at least a 2.5 GPA should not attend UAB. This University is far advanced from the community colleges that students go to after they barely passed high school. All classes - even classes that most people would expect to be easy - require hours of study time weekly. However, if you are passionate about your degree like I am, then UAB is the best choice because the teachers want to help you succeed and will try to make learning easier for their students.

Maegan

People that are not dedicated or determined to succeed should not attend this school. The professors challenge the students to put forth their best effort. They expect a student to invest their time and knowledge into the courses, and the students should be able to do this if they hope to succeed.

DeMarcus

The only type of person that shouldn't attend UAB are people that aren't goal-oriented or like diversity.

Jelissa

I fell like everyone should atend this school. This school is very educated, they are very helpful, very friendly, and will make you feel at home.

Kelsey

If a student is looking for culturally similar environment, this is not the school for them. UAB caters and reaches out to an international and diverse learning environment. Also, if a student is not used to being academically challenged or is unorganized, I would not recommend them to attend. As a student at UAB, you have to be disciplined and well organized. Keeping up at any college is a hard task. I believe UAB goes beyond to produce and truly prepare successful students and the curriculum is not for everyone.

Jamie

Someone that is looking for diversity and wants to do well in a field of health proffesions should attend this school.

Jessica

At UAB, students need to be on schedule and not procrastinate. Although there is more free time in college, students need to learn how to manage their time and keep up with all of their classes and homework. It can get frustrating and confusing if you are not the kind of person who keeps a schedule. Every class can have homework due on a different date, and you need to make sure that you acknowledge every deadline. If you are not organized, do not keep your time managed, nor study, then UAB is not for you.

April

Anyone who does not plan to do their absolute best. You need to be willing to put all of your extra time into studying.

Kathleen

A person who does not want to learn and is taking up valuable space.
