Isn’t that the only reason for going to school

my sister is getting a doctorate in pharmacy so thats out the window

I want to understand shit rusp

comp sci and chem sci are the best money making engineers iirc

Going to school exclusively to learn?

okay i have loved taking physics and chem and want to learn more but i also want to not be half a mil in debt my entire life

yall wanna play pokemon showdown?

>I have an exam in 1.5 hours

I'll pass

one what?

what year are you btw?

im in physics c which i think is the equivalent of an intro college course or somethin

Intermediate classical mechanics, third year

damn nice

We doing lagrangians n sheet

dont know what that is but i have a friend who might

kids a fucking genius, and i go to a rich white high school with lots of other jews

he taught himself 3d vector calc as a junior and aced calc bc as a sophomore without trying

Basically, define L= T - U. T is kinetic energy, U is potential

Now you can solve most classical physics using Differential equationd

Just an alternative to Newtonian mechanics

i mean you can also say vf = v0 + at and solve all of physics c up to circular motion with differential equations and geometry

but im not doing that on a test

That assumes constant a

Also when you said your friend taught himself 3d vector calc, did he actually learn it or did he memorize how to solve problems.

Because the latter does not count as learning it

no he actually learned it and taught it to his calc class

and taught it well enough that a kid who ended up going to yale understood it well as a senior

/shrug

so yeah i hear back from my number 1 choice on the 10th and thats stressful

Were'd you apply?

cornell

engineering

its a reach

I have no idea about US schools. Good luck though

you can make well over six figures straight out of college in tech if you torture yourself by surfing in Cali

working

I'm surprised you'd use Cornell as you reach, You must have really loved the campus

not surfing

MIT

Cal TEch

uc Berkley

see though at my school we have a few schools that love us

yale (we are literally a 10 minute drive), cornell, uconn honors

U of I

Iowa State Kappa

so MIT is a perfect 4.0 from our school while cornell is only like a 3.88 average

also i did love the campus

Well that's a REALLY good reason, non-sarcastically

are they sjw though?

I hate when people disregard how visiting a school makes them feel

thats why i went to Iowa

like there were 3 schools so far where i really loved the campus

umich, cornell, wash u st louis

>UM

I was just there

Ew don't go to wash u

y knot

sjws

also hol up slayer

i was there during the ohio state game

were you also there?

No, I was just there this week

aw

also wash u is fucking beautiful

Was going to go drive and visit Pika afterwards, but he was busy

and way more chill

>watching American football

i watch the premier league ill have you know

arsenal is havin a rough year

visit university of iowa Kapap

I can't even meme other Iowa schools I only know the two

>not picking your uni purely based off of proximity

Not declining to apply to a university strictly out of proximity

you live close to a really nice school

I'd NEVER go to a school that close to home Getting away was a big part of picking a college

yeah i agree with slayer

i live like right next to yale

me too
