/sci/ - Science & Math

I'm taking the Revised GRE on Monday. I've been studying and doing sample problems, but any last-minute tips for a grad student hopeful?

don't forget to factor the series

first of all,
(sqrt(3)*3Q*) = (hmf(9) 3Q*/RQ*)
so you take (parse(R3Q* + R4Q* + ... + sqrt(3QR*))*(sqrt(wt(RT-Q3*)))

then using Hendrick's Theorem Corollary 4.3, the 3RT*S is distributed to GS3Q*.

Hope that helps.

computer graphics is what's going on

does /sci/ want to be a quant when it grows up?

Does /sci/ approve of this?

I think being a Wall Street-ish software guy would be more interesting than making .NET websites all day. If I can get a job, that is.

I registered a new account just to say this

and downvote it

Going to start preparing for the GMAT so I can apply to business schools for an MBA.

Does /sci/ recommend any preparation materials, like a book I can buy on Amazon.com?

If it makes a difference, I'm 27 so I've been out of school for a few years. Haven't done any math since then.

I'm 27 and plan on taking the GRE in six months. What is the best way to prepare?

I've been out of school for a few years, but I have been going back through my Prob & Stats book, and plan on doing some calculus and geometry too. I read the news and novels somewhat regularly so I am not to worried about the reading / vocab portions.

What brokerage & software do you use?

I recently started experimenting with ETrade, I've been using their Pro-Elite tool just to get a feel for trading.

Even the best traders take losses. It's the average gain over time that counts.

Probably the same people that go into Massage Therapy so they can rub hot naked women all day.

Isn't dermatology 99% cosmetic stuff? Like, acne?

Does /sci/ day-trade? Just opened an E-Trade account, soon I'll be making six figures a day. Yeah, u jelly.

Opened my E-Trade account last week. Waiting for the money to be transferred from my bank account. In the mean time, let's talk about day trading.
