Honors Geometry
Honors Algebra II
Honors Trig and Precalc
Calc I

There was no reason at all to mention they were honors classes. Did you want others to think you're special because you were in honors? Literally the same thing with more projects.

First of all, no i'm not trying to brag, I fucking hate myself, and second of all, the definition of an "honors" class is different from school to school, so I have no idea what you're even talking about when you say "more projects".

I didn't need math or anything. I always wanted to go in the army and be a medic. So that's exactly what I did.

But after years of that I decided I wanted to do something else with my life so as a 26 year old freshman I started college. I'm studying mechanical engineering.
It's a crazy uphill climb and I'm starting from the very bottom but it's what I want to do. I took intermediate algebra, a remedial course last semester and I'm just working my way up.

Because most if not all of us were in honors classes, and you're presenting it like it's something worth mentioning. Why did you even post this thread? There's no discussion to be had, just an excuse for you to put "honors" in front of your class names and feel smug about it.

Everyone took roughly the same courses. The only thing that might change is the "honors," and I doubt even that would vary here on /sci/. Try posting this thread somewhere else, and you'll get called out for the same shit. Hell, you might even earn some weird or snotty comments if you posted it on Facebook. It's not something that has any conversational merit to it by itself, so I can't think of any reason this would be worth its own thread besides you wanting to wave your little high-school dick around.

no anon, you'll never finish the literal 2 years at most of math classes you need for every (non physics/math) stem major.
it's not like you're in the same boat as most of the entire freshman class at every american college ever or something

People from upper class families that live near universities can enroll as students and take upper division courses. This gives them the unfair advantage of getting into elite universities and the ability to start taking graduate level courses in their 1st-2nd year. This gives them an unfair advantage to then get into elite graduate schools.

I wouldn't have learned vectors though if I didn't do the IB Math for a year. Thank god our courses were done by semester, not full year, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to recover. But seriously we literally have no fucking options, hell they literally remove programs. I didn't even have clubs to join, just a couple activism groups that did bake sales and nothing else, a few sports teams despite having absolutely zero facilities for sports, everything was done off school grounds, and its a 1000 student population with a student capacity of 200, which is even worse since it's the best high school in the province.

Tested into calculus and analytic geometry for college this year. I didn't study at all and don't recall much of anything so I expect to get fucked. Maybe I'll still end up ahead of all the brainlets(all my friends tested into intermediate algebra).
