<0> I can't spell japanese
<1> Why?
<0> ;x
<0> sintient, cause I have a deep problem with HS, and I **** at it.
<2> sintient, yeah, but when you have to study between those cl***es like in college....
<3> i actually file complaints about professors who try to get all HS on our ***es
<1> Shorter cl***es everyday.
<3> and one of the beautiful things about college
<0> And at this point half my thoughts are about getting out of it?
<3> is they'll fire people
<1> You would be in cl*** 5 hours a week in stead of 3
<3> if studnets complain
<2> i did twenty-one semester hours my first go
<3> (depending on the situtation)
<2> about six too many
<1> Yeah I could just easily not look at a subject from the second cl*** ended till the day of my next cl***.
<2> sometimes
<2> but some courses are labor intensive
<3> I didn't like the multiple subjects every day really
<1> In highschool I had to go over every subject everyday, I was in the habit.
<2> language courses are the worst
<1> oh see one subject a day bores me.
<1> I liked to find links between my cl***es.
<3> it's ok for GE cl***es or whatever you don't really care about
<2> sciences are easier
<3> but when you're trying to major in something....it's kinda lame when your cl*** is too short to get into anything
<1> Have my history teacher explains something about literature and vice versa,
<4> hehe.. from one of the two men wanting to be the new House Majority Leader.. "When the Republican party took power in 1994, it was a party of change and the Democrats were regarded as the party of the status quo and involved in all these various little scandals," Schumer said. "And now it seems to have flipped."
<3> a physics course will basically compeltely consume any day it's scheduled on. It has to. There's no other way. Labs take 3 hours to setup
<4> I've been saying that for months...
<3> ;/
<4> i love when I'm proven right.
<1> I took physics.
<1> Lab final was the lamest thing.
<4> go me.
<3> never had a lab final:)
<1> And having to rely on someone else in the lab was STUPID!!!
<2> third year everything's demanding, from then on
<1> I would do most the work or someone would have a short cut and I would get delegated to some other task and I would miss out on the math.
<3> indeed
<3> you have to lay the smack down with labs, really
<3> don't let students **** you around
<1> Or the labs were so hard to set up we didn't get to check out answers or work cause the cl*** was over and the lab ***istant had prayers to do.
<2> math was the easiest for me, less preparation
<1> just kidding he would have a cl*** or something
<1> well alot of times college math students just retake things they took in highschool
<2> yeah
<2> and you've either got it or you don't
<3> indeed
<1> True
<0> Jett, in math?
<3> :P
<2> P_O, yeah
<3> upper division math is kinda (from what i hear) bull****, so we'll see
<1> No calc 4?
<0> Jett, I don't know, there are some people who are inbetween I think.
<5> what do you mean bull****
<1> I wonder if I could just pay a tutor what I would pay for a cl***.
<2> P_O, yeah, I agree totally....it was just a whiz for me
<0> Jett, I'm decent at math my self, except I still can't factor worth ****.
<2> and I didn't do any upper division mathematics, beyond basic statistics
<6> wow
<6> factor
<1> You just can lose your calc and trig so easily, because you just don't use it everyday unless you try to.
<6> be sure to learn that lol
<3> panini: not regulated or structured, not the same process for dif students, large variety of courses that are generally easier than multivariable calc & diff eq
<0> Factoring blows.
<3> it's what the math majors tell me anyway
<5> it's more pure math
<5> as opposed to applied math
<2> P_O, I make myself do math in my head rather than by machine and I generally dial all my numbers by hand rather than hitting a button, just to stay in touch with it
<1> math feels like another language or a bunch of trick you could figure out on your own but it is so much simpler to learn them
<5> more proofs and theory
<2> It's harder, it's avoiding one of the great new luxuries, but I want some of those numbers in my head
<5> sintient: math is the language of abstraction
<0> I think I like math theory more than applied math.
<6> i think calc 4 is just proving everything from calc 1
<3> I don't, I can't stand unapplied math.
<1> College math is tough students with such different math backgrounds trying to learn the same things.
<3> I like the math I have to use to solve physics problems, when i'm solving phyiscs problems!
<0> I mean, my favorite parts of geometry were the proofs, which yes, you could apply to something, but most of the time you didn't.
<2> chemistry exams used to be open book 99% math
<3> I like physically useful math too. Like a taylor expanison for a quick example. Extremely useful!
<2> without calculators
<2> slide rule
<3> in the real word there's no such thing as '
<3> 'not an approximation' anyway
<3> ;/
<7> welcome to #nerd
<3> world ;p
<2> you get the wrong answer, you can still 110 on the test
<2> heh
<3> cept for like how many fingers are you holding up
<3> but ya know what i mean
<2> score
<1> Yeah chemistry is like multi variable alegbra and some exponential equations
<2> zactly
<6> pascal's triangle
<3> I havn't had the opportunity tot ake college chem yet, which i'm kind of upset about
<3> I need it (or at least really want it) for upper division physics courses;/
<1> It was a fight to say something in cl***.
<3> The reason I can't take it yet is because of unit drama with transfering, long anonying & boring *** story;/
<1> Participate in a fact no opinion science discussion when you are learning it? kinda weird
<3> If i had my way i woudl have started chem about a year and a half ago
<3> bah
<6> im doint my 2nd semester of chem this year, and the last
<6> no lab this time
<2> pythro, how you like it?
<0> suna, I always thought of Chem is a prerequisite for Physics.
<6> well im a CpE major so i basically dont like it at all
<2> heh
<0> *as a
<6> im taking my first college semester of physics this semester too
<3> po: it's helpful, not really necessary though. In some situations it's down right confusing, especially when you get to wierd bonding stuff and electron levels and other things that chemistry teachers don't usually tell you are wrong
<3> well at least not in highschool
<3> In highschool i was out right lied to in my chem course. I wans't told 'this isn't the whoel story, you don't have the education to understand it yet'
<0> Gotta love those orbitals man.
<3> i was told 'this is true'
<3> it aws ****ing crap
<0> Orbitals and quantum numbers are fun.
<8> I should make it a point not to visit liberal channels, because they don't seem to actualy deal with reality
<3> i've NEVER had a physics teacher be dishonest with me. They tell me when they're hand waving becaue I don't know the math yet
<6> quantum mechanics ****s
<3> and i accept that
<9> seeking reactions from strangers on the internet is scary
<0> suna, my chem teacher is honest.
<3> you're lucky man
<2> my high school chem instructor had her phd from vanderbilt and she said, "nukular"
<0> She's a really good teacher.
<9> sounds better as 'you lucky man'
<3> thank her for that
<1> I think physics is more the prereq for chemistry
<0> Probably my favorite academically.
<9> sintient - I agree
<9> no doubt
<6> Jett: probably just accend
<6> accent*
<3> I would have to agree with that too, in an ideal world
<8> I find it odd that liberals spend so much time bitching, that they actually forget to actually give solutions
<9> understand the how before the what
<0> suna, part of the reason is probably that she actually got a lot of education in Chemistry and used to work in the field
<9> but philosophy might be prerequisite to physics
<1> bran what channel?
<9> physics is an outreach of philo
<0> as opposed to someone who wanted to be a teacher, and picked chemistry on a list while blindfolded
<2> Pythro, I think the same thing when I hear people say, 'go though the light'
<0> Which is how some of my teachers must have done it.
<3> serialbob: not what physicsts say:)
<1> Nice to have calc 2 before you have physics
