At my school, we're required to take a certain number of classes satisfying a 'diversified education curriculum' before we graduate, basically to 'make you more well rounded'
I'm way behind because I've been taking basically only math classes so far, so I figured I'd get one out of the way, and I'd rather take a class exploring the recent wave of feminism than one of those awful Music 101 or other silly electives.

>>7439292
It's only one hour and the preparation will provide a good textbook for study. I look forward to it. Should I have taken differential equations two or numerical analysis instead of vector analysis as an engineer?

>>7439309
Really? I found my music 101 class to be fairly interesting. I enjoyed the music and still listen to some of it to this day.

I feel like women studies is going to be a SJW class, and if you're a cis white male I don't think you will be accepted.

I am taking Calculus 2 guys, I like math and received a B in calc 1. I don't want to fail out like a bunch of people have.

Any tips?

>>7439320
>Intro to Object Oriented Programming
this is fun and easy though

>>7439316
There was intro to classical, which was interesting, and then there was intro to rock music, which sounded rather awful. and intro to music theory but that was fool.

Yeah so either I read through all this theory and I'm converted or I read through all this theory, think it's a load of rubbish, and have the opportunity to debate them about it. What I'm hoping happens is that it's nothing like the crazed social justice warriors you find on the internet and turns out to be a reasonable brand of feminism that isn't associated with them.

>>7439327
Study, do exercises, go to office hours, repeat

>>7439316
Yea, his perfect valid opinions will be lambasted as privileged regardless of their academic context or content and any critiques of classmate discourse or literature will be viewed as an example of patriarchal kyriarchy. Heteronormativity will be discouraged as will the gender binary.

>>7439333
I'd think so. I haven't checked out the syllabus, but I think my class is in Java, and in that case it'll be a breeze since I got some exposure to it in high school.

i only need 3 classes to graduate, but senior design is 2 semesters so i have a full year so i might as well retake some classes to get a better grade. can you not retake courses?

>>7439413
>to get a better grade.
What kind of shit school allows you to retake courses to improve your grade (short of failing the course originally).

>>7439413
Not that guy but at my uni you can't retake classes to replace your grade. They include the previous grade so you don't really benefit from taking a class twice

>>7439429
I'm at Purdue.
>>7439432
the old grade is still on your transcript, they just use the new grade instead of the old when calculating GPA

"Advanced" algebra (Commutative algebra and Galois theory)

It's supposed to be tough. I'm not looking forward to anything specifically (since it all seems great). I'm especially excited about winter semester (we will finally start specializing)

>algebraic number theory
>grad algebraic geometry
>numerical analysis

I'm looking to add a grad special topics course and I'm doing research.

>>7439391
I probably would lay off the math at this point, and just focus on engineering. You have everything you need until you get to a phd level. But, for this semester VA is good. More diff eq wouldn't hurt, either, if you're a big mathfag.

>>7439413
Why not take extra stem courses in or out of your major?

>>7439438
Grad school? Nice.

What do you want to specialize in?

>>7439444
i was gonna take fuel cell engineering, but i want to make sure i have plenty of time to dedicate to senior design and my other major courses. im plus the two classes i want to take arent offered this semester, only in the spring

>>7439413
It sounds really dumb to take a class you've already passed. Are you not interested in anything? Take a class for fun.

>>7439444
Yea I'll have a math minor and engineering major. This is my senior year, I've just got this semester and a few capstone courses in the spring.

>>7439257

my nigga

i've got a fuckton more classes than you if you're doing thursday and friday off. looks like you're doing evening options man. rad.

being a technologist ain't easy

>>7439446
Yep ! I like algebra and topology so maybe something related to representation theory or geometry. I have actually just finished a small research internship for 6 weeks in valuation theory. It wasn't so much personal research of mine as it was trying to familiarize myself with the subject and then trying to understand a survey paper on the resolution of singularities, which was tough because I had very little knowledge of algebraic geometry beforehand. It was fun though, I'd be interested in working on something like that in the future.

Try American Master's student and Structural Analysis Engineer (hopefully)

>>7439476
If you don't mind, what is algebraic geometry like?
I'm quite fond of differential geometry, but I'm only an undergrad so my experience with math in general is a bit limited.

>>7439257
Do we go to the same school or does our schedule layout just look the same?

Introduction to Chemical Engineering Computing
Introduction to Ordinary Differential Equations
Organic Chemistry Biological Emphasis
Chemical Engineering Fundamentals
Professional Development

>>7439508
They all look that way. Mine is the exact same.

>>7439508
Nah, I think a lot of schools have this format

Besides, mine doesn't even have ChemE. What's Professional Development?

>>7439380
Wtf? How are you taking Linear Algebra before even finishing calc 1? How are you taking 2 chem classes and a bio class along with physics? what kind of schedule is this

>>7439380
You biochem?

I got:
>Foundations of Biochemistry
>Cell Bio
>Physics
>Written comm. in the sciences
>Advanced organic synth.

Writing class may be stupid, but the ochem class'll be fun

>>7439519
Linear Algebra skills are independent of calculus skills.

>>7439524
The school I go to won't let you take linear algebra without calc 2 at least.

Also, if I had your schedule at my school, I would have 30ish units. And the cellular bio, chem I and II, along with physics all have a lab component in them so they're 5 unit classes that meet for 10 hours a week. how the fuck?

>>7439508
>Prerequisite: sophomore standing. Develop an understanding of engineering ethics, teamwork, leadership, and professional responsibility through the concepts of contemporary, social, and global issues. (F, Sp)

>>7439497
Well from what I could piece together with what I've seen, it seems like a way of providing a geometric language to talk about algebraic problems (solutions of polynomial equations).
At first it felt really weird, almost creepy. My professor, the papers, everyone was talking about geometry but I just couldn't see anything geometric about it. It really felt like they had all agreed to give geometric names to objects related to rings to mess with my head. Then, of course, you begin to see some motivation for it. It starts off with the basic observation that if you consider a smooth real manifold, you can retrieve the manifold structure from the data of the real valued smooth functions on every open set. Therefore, you can characterize a manifold M by its underlying space and a correspondence F (called a sheaf) which, for each open set U gives the set F(U) of real-valued smooth functions on U.
Then you define a ringed space to be exactly a topological space equipped with a sheaf F which to every open set U associates a ring F(U) (which can be thought of as a ring of functions on U) in a way that mimics that of the case of the smooth manifold (ie. there is a "well-defined" restriction operation and, if you have an open cover (Ui) and "functions" (fi) on each open set of the cover that agree on the intersections, then you can construct a "function" on the whole space whose restriction to each Ui is fi)
Modern algebraic geometry concerns itself with specific cases of these ringed spaces called schemes. The great generality of the definition allows it to work in a great number of situations that do not have an obvious geometric origin but it is not so abstract that it has no mathematical content: You can define notions reminiscent of those of differential geometry (dimension, smoothness, tangent space, differential forms) and relate them to algebraic properties of your structure sheaf.

>Modern Algebra 1
>Probability and Statistics
>Real Analysis
>Linear Algebra 2
>Internet Tools

Most excited for Real Analysis, second most excited for Algebra 1, then Linear Algebra 2. Don't really give a shit about internet tools but I want a comp sci minor.

>>7439666
I did not go very deep into it so it seemed pretty artificial ("why give these different names if all the proofs are just going to be commutative algebra ?") but by the end it did seem to have some geometrical content. I probably should have worked with varieties (which are the object of study of classical algebraic geometry) at first instead of schemes because they seem to have a more obvious geometric content, whereas schemes provide a much more flexible framework to work on intersection problems and number theory themes (but that's not usually one's concern when they first get acquainted with the subject).

>>7439519
Ontario math education is different. Our final 12th grade math course is 6 weeks of vectors and 6 weeks of calculus, where we only learn differential calculus
>>7439520
Yup

>>7439684
I hope you go around telling people that you're taking algebra 1 next semester. I know I would

>>7439666
>>7439685
Thanks for reminding me why I don't study math

>>7439519

Good luck with Cal 2, it's a bit difficult but not impossible, definitely schedule hours for tutoring.

>>7439327
Go to tutoring and get tutors that 100% know wtf they're talking about. My school had tutors that had no idea what the hell they were doing and partly because of that I failed the class the first time. Also like the other guy said, study and go to office hours, be acquainted with the math teacher. Cal 2 is hard, but not impossible.

>>7439923
Major? What can I expect. Honestly it looks like the back of my calc3 book

also sup geoscience pal

>>7440188
Yeah, that wasn't my original plan.
I wanted to have no classes before 10, but due to my orientation (and thus, first round of scheduling), being so late, I ended up having to just grab what I could get.

>>7440197
You effectively have Tuesday off, so you should be thankful for that.

>>7440197

You basically live in an around latimer for 3 hours. Take a break at Dwinelle, then come back to your latimer home.

I wouldn't have done that as a freshman but unlike many people, by my senior year I wanted to knock out all my classes before lunch if I could

>>7440202
That was my "damage control" plan. Thursday's first class is a P/F 1 unit class, so that's also going to be a decent day.

>>7440204
Yeah, I also got a spot in Tellefsen, so I live on northside. It works out pretty well, it just looks ugly at first glance.
It wasn't really my plan to have classes so close together (time wise and geographically), but that's what I got.

>>7440257
Calc 3 was easier than Calc 2 for me, though it may have been because the professor didn't make us trig-sub at all and the integrals were marginally easier.
Pretty much all you're doing is integrating the same equation multiple times with some linear algebra concepts thrown in there.
