/sci/ - Science & Math

oh look, it's a freshman bragging, everyone laugh and point.

and if you aren't a freshman, you're retarded for taking calc 1 so late into college.

Lolwut?

>>4322885
>mfw I fucked off in high school
>mfw I got accepted to a 4 year

>>4322904
What kind of grades do you have?

>>4322921
3.7 gpa now, had a 2.4 in HS.

>>4322927
So you got into a State University. So no. Not jelly.

>>4322893
>freshman in college
>taking any calculus

You should be done with that way earlier

>>4322904
>implying getting into a 4-year means anything

>>4322929
Says the kid in community college.

>>4322929
because state universities aren't often ranked higher than your shitty status symbol young adult daycare centers, amirite?

gotta love high schooler logic.

>>4322930
Part of core, my man

>>4322927

3.7GPA is hilarious because you're bragging about Calculus 1. Its a FIRST YEAR course. Of course its easy as shit.

>>4322937
Not OP, faggot.

>>4322930
>taking calculus in high school
how does it feel to be a social outcast?

>>4322934
I fucked off in HS. I could have gotten into a shitty uni too, I just wouldn't have been able to pay for it. But now that I have a 4.0 (lol community college) I'm sure I can get at least tuition paid for.

>>4322939
Calculus is a high school level topic, so why not take it in high school?

Also,
>implying anyone should want to be accepted by people who hate intellect

I know it might make you feel better to think that the majority is made up of people who LOL HATEZ BOOKZ N REDING, but it's quite the opposite. You are in fact the social outcast.

>>4322948
>implying I go to a shitty university

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Texas_at_Dallas

>"The U.S. News & World Report's 2012 edition of Best Colleges categorized the University of Texas at Dallas as a "Tier 1" national university, ranked 143 overall, 73 in their national public school rankings and 3rd among Texas public universities."

May not be the best, but it's far from shitty.

>>4322893
I was a freshman when I took calculus.

>>4322955
lol at the social outcast trying to justify his autism.

>>4322885

>Mfw I am surrounded by retards

Except the only retard is you for thinking that you are superior because you understand mathematics aka the most autistic human invention.

Unfortunately, the school system does a good job of bucketing kids and railroading them through the same exact program one by one. It's hard to do calculus so early because they simply won't let you progress that fast. It requires effort outside the system, and people tend to whack those outside the system.

>>4322976
Wait, the most respected philosophers and academicians were mathematicians. Now that you've seen a few recent movies vilifying mathematics and you've gotten caught up in the current culture of innumeracy, you think that mathematics is autistic?

I feel so bad for you.

>>4322976
Are you implying that you have to be autistic to understand calculus? Whatever helps you sleep at night, bro.

>>4322969
>>4322976
>using autism as an insult

Enjoy your lack of vaccination!

I started at a CC. Most of the people in my Calc and Physics classes were actually pretty clever. Granted, they were a little slow because they always came to me to explain shit, but they got it right after an explanation.

It sounds to me like OP is justifying going to a CC by saying he is the smartest kid there. I don't see the need, there is nothing wrong with starting by only paying $2000 a year.

>>4322997
>>4322987
>>4322995

Can you three without your butthurted autism explain what do your statements have do to with my statement, in which i asserted that" if you feel superior to your peers just for understanding one thing ALONE, then you have to be a RETARD"

Also way to have a Freudian Slip and automatically mix RETARD for AUTIST.

I started at a CC. Most of the people in my Calc and Physics classes were actually pretty clever. Those who weren't, failed (or at least just got a C).
>>4322927

Kill yourself.

>>4323037

So you've narrowed the text to one word.
What point does that make beyond making you an even larger reading-comprehension-failure retard than before?

>>4323014

OP here, I'm not saying I'm the smartest kid there
I know for a fact one chick who is smarter than me in my calc class. I'm just saying I'll be studying in the library or before one of my classes in the hall and every time someone sees my calc book they go into "U R GEENEEUS" mode and tell me how smart I am.

I think it's been said in this thread but it's the fact that if you're good at math or take an interest in it you're automatically labeled a "genius" or a "nerd" (depending on what level of education you're talking about and who you're talking to)

I would like to think that if most people didn't have an irrational fear or math that everyone could pass a calculus class. Shit, even when I was in trig and I looked in someone's calc book I was a little scared (dat limit notation looks like a moonspeak if you don't know what it means) but I knew when I came to it I could learn it. And I have.

That's why I made this thread. The retards have shown themselves. Stay jelly plebs.

>easier than trig
wut

>>4323058
>studying in the library
lol poorfag

>>4323048
Have a good night. Bye.

>>4323073
>Studies at starbucks
Man u shure r kewl

>>4323078
jelly, poorfag?

I'm pretty sure that if everyone in this thread was murdered, no on would give a shit.

>>4323077

And you have an awesome day.

>>4323082

I took a year long calculus course in highschool.
The teacher was nice, was a pretty easy class.

>Taking Math
>"OMG YOU MUST BE A RETARD"

that is my opinion of anything math related.
Shut the fuck up you retards!

>what's your major?
>math and physics
>MATH?!?! What's 457985 divided by 329.8???

>>4323382
Rational.

>>4323390
Yeah, but it's like *everyone*...

I love people's face when I tell them the math I do doesn't even have numbers in it.

Ya so I'm like a genius. Fucked with some quantum mechanics shit in second grade and got bored. I fuck nineteen 10/10's a night. I drive a Bugatti and make 50,000,000 Dollars/Euros/Yen a second. My happiness level is always 1000/10. I am also an underwear model and bodybuilder. I know 50 types of martial arts and I own several countries. I am the sovereign leader of those countries and have several armies under my control. Soo everyone kiss my ass.


Typical /sci/ tard. We know, you are all perfect geniuses. This fucking board is pathetic.

Holy shit, are you me?

>>4323433

Fuck off, retard. You're not even worthy of quoting my post.

Sagan, Feynman and Hawking all came to me when they had questions, nigger. I told em to fuck off because I was tired of dealing with their inferior minds. Shit, I just made another 50 mil. Time to buy some more fighter jets. Peace out fuckers.

>>4323425

This pleases me. The thread does not.

>>4323475

>>4323475
Ha ha, oh wow

>first day of Calc 2
>professor walks in
>looks at all the students
>"Calc 1 is baby shit, If any of you thought Calc 1 was difficult then you are most likely going to fail. I will make you cry on your exams and give you horribly tough problems to make you use that brain of yours. If you don't think you can handle this then get up and walk out the door now."
>some people actually get up and walk out
>mfw the entire time

>>4323494
>>4323494
hhhhhah.

calc 2 was way easier

>>4323494
Weird... Calc 2 was the easiest for me. Took it senior year of HS, finished Calc 3 last semester (Freshman) and it was by far the hardest. To me.

>>4323494
>mfw I now want to become a professor just to announce to a class that Calc I is babby shit

>>4323409
No, your answer should just be "A rational number; because it's a field."

>>4323519
I know that feel bro. Calc 5,003 was easiest for me, but freshman year of high school when I took Calc 6,712, I was kind of sweating there for a second.

>>4323519
Is Calc 3 integral calc, or multi? I didn't do the second half of multi until college, because I was getting ready to go to college.

>>4323528
multi

>>4323519
probably because your high school teacher babied you, because i took calc 1-3 in college and 3 was by far the easiest.

Sweating like a crybaby bitch? Sweating like a disgusting fatbody pig on a treadmill for the first time. Yeah I thought so. Your slut mom should have been teaching you calculus when you were nothing but a fucking creampie in her disgusting, yeast-infected snatch.

>>4323533
Okay. I always feel bad that I didn't care enough about multi to remember any of the surface/line/volume theorems. I didn't do that kind of math.

>>4323540
Forget to quote the post much?

>>4323540
Well, for him to get to calc 9001 by college, she probably was.

>>4323528
Calc 2 for me:
Integration techniques
Trig sub/integrals
Partial factions
Approximation of Integration
Improper Integrals
Area between curves
various Volumes methods
Arc length
applications to physics and gaying
3d
vectors
dot product
cross product
equations of lines and planes
parametric curves
calc with parametric curves
polar coords
areas and length in polar coords
sequences
series
integral and comparison tests
convergence tests
power series
functions + power series
taylor and maclaurin series
applications of taylor polys
differential equations
linear differential equs.
second order linear differential equs.
inhomogeneous second order equations by undetermined coefficients
Oscillations

>>4323546
yeah same here, but the problem is that i never use that shit anyway.

if i needed to i could probably just look up what i need in my calc book.

>>4323556

Shitty comeback much? Dumbass much? Fucking pleb. Fucking normie. Wanna arm-wrestle? Wanna race? Wanna see who can make more women come in an hour? Play a game of chess? Play a game of "let's see who can correct more of Einstein's equations in 15 nanoseconds?" Let's go. Mad much?

>>4323574
Say much much?

>>4323573
Exactly. I wasn't doing physics, so I was never computing flows or really caring that much about curl, and I certainly wasn't using Green's theorem on a daily basis. I was using algebra, though. Theoretical computer science uses algebra like an old lady uses a walker with tennis balls on the feet.

>mfw my high school cancelled all math classes beyond algebra to get its grades up

You guys don't know how lucky you all are. Also,

>mfw my high school banned me from taking the SAT because of two suicide attempts I did, so now I have to go to a CC to get into a regular university

>>4323585
>mfw my high school banned me from taking the SAT because of two suicide attempts I did

>>4323589
They didn't think I was stable enough to take 'em, so I got barred from doing so.

>>4323585
Banned from taking the SAT for being suicidal?

That's like being banned from intramural sports for forwarding a chain mail. That makes no sense.

Also, you can sit the test anywhere. I sat it at a high school that wasn't mine, just because that's where they were doing it.

>>4323589
doesn't make much sense, but i see them being able to do it.

op is an idiot that he didn't just take SAT/ACT at a different high school. for the ACT you just register and pay online and then show up to take it and no one gives a shit who you are.

>>4323595
>>4323595
>Also, you can sit the test anywhere.
I've tried, with no luck. Seems like even the SAT people think I'm a flight risk, even after all these years. ACT people have not respond to the eleven emails and six calls I made to them. I'm almost done with CC anyway, least I get a head start into a regular university as a result, and with money saved.

>>4323594
I was kinda questioning the entire thing. Like how on Earth is your life so shitty, or your reasoning so retarded that you would attempt suicide. Then, how on Earth did you fail, twice? How did the school find out, and what the hell does not taking the SAT save you from destructive tendencies.

All of my why.

>>4323601
what the fuck? i registered to take the ACT online and all i had to do is full out the general info bullshit and payment info.

why the fuck did you call so many times?

>>4323605
two main reasons for failing suicide is if someone stops you, or you never planned on killing yourself and only "attempted" to gain attention.

>>4323608
Because they weren't responding to my inquiries online when I tried to register on their site.

>>4323611
what inquires? you register and that's it. i don't recall anyone having to manually accept my registration.

>>4323605
>still in high school
the human body has a natural protection against self-harm and suicidal acts. it's actually been studied that being to kill oneself is one of the hardest things for any creature to perform, and it's common for most suicides to have multiple failures prior to it. it's also why cutting oneself is common for people who plan to kill themselves, it slowly eases their body into getting used to self-harm

>>4323619

>>4323616
I registered online, had to fill out information regarding my high school, place of living, etc. Whatever is it was necessary, only to get a couple responses that they weren't going accept my information as a test applicant (similar to when I tried to apply for the SAT), and whatever emails or calls I sent just never got returned, basically it.

>>4323619
makes sense.

what about trauma? i would expect severe cases of trauma to also lead to suicide.

>>4323619
>>4323638
pathetic samefag

>>4323638
i think so. i remember reading a news story about anesthesia awareness (where people go into surgery under anesthesia but for some reason it shuts off everything except the conscious part of their brain, so they're still awake through the surgery and feeling the pain, but not being able to scream or wake up until it wears off), and there was a priest who was so traumatized from it happening to him that he shot himself months after. a pstd patients have been known to off themselves

>>4323646
Even more pathetic samefaggotry. Capitalize your 'I's faggot.

>>4323585
We had a student at the high school I worked at for my masters degree like that, had to be moved here because the school found out that he was trying to kill himself, and didn't have the necessary programs to deal with it, and we did. So they put him in fragile behavioral courses here with other kids we got for similar issues: self-cutters, kids who commit felonies, underagers straight from rehab, kids like that. As a result, they had to put them on a modified diploma instead of a standard one, which doesn't include SAT and ACT, so graduates under it will have to go through community college before just regular college. And the kid, the suicidal one from the other school, was definitely the smartest guy in the entire school, one of the most intelligent people you'll ever meet, just plagued by some family drama, and had to go to community college once he graduated. Which was kind of sad seeing somebody that smart being forced into that kind of situation because of personal crap, but I'm sure he managed. Last I heard regarding him was that a family member of his shot themselves recently, but nothing about him, so I don't know what he's up to now, if anything.
