Ugh calc!  I'm taking applied calc.  Didn't need it at the school I got my bachelors at, but need it at the school where i'm getting my masters.  It's been like 4 years since my last math class.  Kind of weird returning to school after a hiatus, huh?

personally, i hate school.
but i like doing calculus/physics/chemistry. I mean its not like I do physics equations in my spare time, but its kind of fun in school. Like a puzzle.
doesnt stop me from gettin bad grades though

you see i have this problem with homework.


I dont do it.

Yeah man i know how ya feel, when i was in high school i could not get myself to do any homework at home, i always did it the period before it was do in school, never brought a book home. same thing with tests. i never really applied myself but i still graduated with a 3.0 though, good enough for me. college is a little different, but not that much

HELLZ YEA!
when i saw the new ninja 250 design i was phsyched, i plan on buying one as my starter bike too. cant wait to start riding, but gota get out of the house first. My mom is one of those crazy anti-everything-dangerous people, so she thinks bikes should be illegal. rediculous.

and before anyone thinks im just trying to be rebellious, i didnt even know my mom was against em until after i asked if i could have one.

i dont think ill ever buy something like a hayabusa though, i want to live.

Ughh I hated Chemistry.  I did fine in it in high school, but college chemistry was a different story.  I don't think I ever did figure out buffer problems.  Calculus wasn't too bad as long as I did the homework and studied.  math has always come easy for me though.  I kind of liked physics in high school.  it was very interesting to me, but I never got to physics in college.  After freshman year I switched majors from Mechanical Engineering (After getting a D in the second semester of chemistry) and wound up getting a BBA.  Before college, I had never gotten a C on a report card or progress report.  All A's and B's including the AP classes.  College was a real eye opener to say the least.  i wound up graduating with a 3.3 something (I think it was either 3.33 or 3.35) though.  in my experiences though, in the business world, anything 2.5 or above is acceptable.  It is actually a proven fact that most millionaires were "c" students anyway.

Well ..... I never took college Chem ..... got 8 credits for AP in HS.  I never took Calc1 either. 

In HS I got all A's & B's, but in college I think I got like 3 A's total.  I'm proud to say that I've never been on academic probation like almost all of my friends at some point, but I graduated with a QCA of 2.53.  QCA is basically the same as GPA except that they use +'s and -'s ...... ie, a 92 is an A-

Yeah after I got out of Mechanical Engineering they made it where you only needed one semester of Chemistry (I got a B in that one).  I thought it was retarded that a Mechanical Engineer should have to take college level general chemistry (the same one the pre-med students take).
But I don't regret it.  i like my job
If I had a time machine though, I would go back and start off as a business major.  All of my "core" classes were way above the level of the business major "core" classes.  haha! I remember when my fraternity brothers were taking business calculus.  i had already taken Cal 1 and 2 in the engineering program so I didn't have to take business cal.  We covered all of business cal in like 1 month in Cal1.

Same here man. I hated Chem but I had the most fun in that class. The teacher was actually pretty nice because she didn't really care what we did after the lecture was over. Didn't do most of my hw first term so only got a B but managed an A second term. Only got a 3 on the AP test so I had to retake it for college. Good thing I only needed one chem class because I barely managed a B. The organic chem and 3d bond models owned me. College was so much more different than HS for me too. UCLA kicked my butt first quarter. I'm great in math but using my AP credits to skip calc 1 and 2 to take calc 3 was a big mistake. The questions on exams were completely different from HS and AP tests. All word problems and dealt more with the concept than working out the problem. I've kind of gotten use to the idea that a C is enough for engineers and hopefully that holds true when I start applying for interships next year.

I don't mind general chem but I took College Level organic chem as a junior in high school and that sucked.... I hate Organic chem....
