query: Aslo, i'm a graduate student, and I have C in one subject will I fail in subject? or will my status be taken from me? give me some suggesting if i'm in safe zone, I'm an internatinal student

response:
In general, if you are a graduate student with a C in one subject and are currently in F-1 status, you should expect to pass your subject exam and maintain your status throughout your studies. However, there are certain circumstances where you may face challenges in passing the subject exam:

1. Changing degree level: If you have changed your degree level at UB or transferred from another U.S. college/university, you may need to complete additional coursework or take additional exams to demonstrate proficiency in the new subject. This could impact your ability to receive CPT authorization.
2. Graduation requirements: If you are completing your final semester of studies and are planning to graduate within the next academic year, you may need to pass your subject exam before you can officially graduate. Failure to pass the exam could result in a delay in graduation or a reduction in your degree status.
3. Course requirements: Some departments may require specific courses or projects to fulfill their internship, practicum, Co-op, or course requirements. If your department does not offer an internship, practicum, Co-op, or course meeting these requirements, you may not be eligible for CPT. This could limit your opportunities for practical training experiences and potentially impact your ability to receive CPT authorization.

query: hey, help mw out with my grades, i have a grade C in one subject, will i get fal or deported, what is the requirement for international students

response:
Hello there! I'm happy to assist you with your grades and concerns regarding your F-1 visa status. Let's start by addressing your question:

Q: Will I receive a failing grade or be deported if I have a grade C in one subject?

A: The eligibility requirements for F-1 student visa holders vary depending on the country of origin and the specific program or course you are participating in at UB. However, generally speaking, a grade C in one subject does not necessarily mean that you will receive a failing grade or be deported.

F-1 students are typically allowed to participate in certain programs or courses that require a certain level of proficiency in English, such as those offered by the University at Buffalo's School of Education or the College of Arts & Sciences. These courses often include language classes, cultural exchange programs, or research opportunities that require a certain level of understanding of the language and culture.

If you have a grade C in one subject, it could indicate that you have demonstrated some difficulty in understanding or communicating effectively in English, which may limit your ability to fully engage in the course material and complete assignments. This could potentially impact your overall performance and potential for academic success.

However, it's important to note that the F-1 visa process is complex, and the

query: find 4-2*8 value

response:
To find the 4-2*8 value, we need to multiply the number of factors (4) by the product of the two numbers (2*8). Let's break down the calculation step-by-step:

1. Multiply the number of factors (4):
   - Factors = 4
   - Value = 4 * 8 = 32

2. Multiply the product of the two numbers (2*8):
   - Product = 2 * 8 = 16

Now, let's calculate the value:
Value = Factors * Product
Value = 4 * 16
Value = 64

So, the 4-2*8 value is 64.

If you need more information or clarification regarding this calculation, please provide the sources you mentioned or clarify the specific requirements for finding the value. If you're unsure about accessing the specific e-form or picking up documents, you can contact the International Student Services (ISS) advisor through their website or phone number provided in the sources. They offer drop-in appointments for immigration-related inquiries and can assist with document pick-ups.
