Failed spoilers but those are pretty nice notes. Mine are fucking illegible. Humans centuries from now will find my shitty calc notes and believe it a lost language.

/sci/ plz helps

Loving Bio and Physics in high school so far and need to decide what to do with my life next year for uni.

Biophysics
Medical Physics
or Health Science

plz help

Ok, help me out here /sci/, I cannot for the life of me figure out WHY a self-filling flask as designed by Robert Boyle wouldn't work.

If you've got a large tank of water with a pipe running out of the bottom, should that not be able to pump water above it's own level? And in that case, shouldn't you be able to pump it back into the original cistern? Something here isn't ringing true with me, but for the life of me I can't figure it out! WHY wouldn't this work?

>teacher tells you "you cant do that"
>next year teacher says: "this is how you do that"
EVERY FUCKING TIME!!!

This article is fairly disheartening but speaks an immeasurable amount of truth.

I really do feel like I am just drone going about a given set of steps that I've learned and it has always been this way.
>When I was younger my mom would ask me "Don't you like math?"
>I'd always answer, "No."
>"But why not, you are so good at it! You have an A+!"
>"Yea, its easy but it isn't interesting. I just memorize stuff and do it over and over."

After reading this I guess it makes sense. The question is...
>How do I go about finding that appreciation in math?
>How can I practice this process of discovery while having so much memorized 'jargon'?

98% in Psychology.
83% in Biology. - I am disappointed in myself. :(
