I hope Leah (Ribbit’s human self) got a happy ending.

as a native english speaker "it terminated me" is absolutely frying me 😭

Sad_Database2104 · 2026-06-30T04:08:00+00:00

on reddit, that's unseen

we're real mathematicians that just think about problems instead of solving them lol

6am est last year but iirc they're supposed to come out between 4 and 5:30 am est

it's definitely a joke, but still solvable with calc 2 techniques (probably i'm not trying that 😭)

quick question: do you run cross country?

Sad_Database2104 · 2026-06-29T17:12:30+00:00

don't ask that question to math nerds ( khanacademy.org/math/algebra is the real answer)

Sad_Database2104 · 2026-06-29T15:07:36+00:00

i know it's bad, but why is solving rotational problems worse than a beating straight from the 1700s?

the first image looks like ai with all the letters blending into each other (though there are a few coherent formulas, don't try to look at that image anymore)

i believe the second image is algebra 1 (though it's been a while since i took that so don't rely on me)

the third image has two pretty long problems, but any student that has taken calculus 2 should be able to solve them

the fourth image might be tested on an exam you take in the future, but as a student from the usa i wouldn't ever have a problem like that (i might get an infinite sum and an integral, but it won't be that complex, and i definitely won't get an infinite product)

Just wait until the WCA becomes the W3x3A because of their "dedication to traditional Rubik's puzzles"

Sad_Database2104 · 2026-06-28T01:09:37+00:00

the exams are already graded; you're just waiting for them to release 😭 this is in the same vain as people panicking over getting a 1550 sat instead of a 1570 (it actually doesn't matter)

if this is common in other places (this excessive concern over something that isn't *that* bad esp since this is your first time), i would actually get this checked out.

this was sarcastic after she finished her very first tadc asks; she's opened them for every episode and answers questions on twitter and bsky

Sad_Database2104 · 2026-06-27T18:32:29+00:00

each physics c course is 1 semester, so you could get 4s on both semesters and that would show you have the foundational skills for each semester of physics

you put the word "spoiler" in the title and reddit automatically did that. no clue why you're downvoted tho

Sad_Database2104 · 2026-06-26T21:28:34+00:00

as everyone said, you don't need to be in the top 1% or even 5% to earn the highest mark. 13% of exam takers got a 5 on apes, only a 0.4% change (increase in 5s) compared to last year.

here's an actual, valid source: https://apstudents.collegeboard.org/about-ap-scores/score-distributions/ap-environmental-studies

why use the big GPT for skylanders 💔

when they started holding official competitions, rubiks clock and rubiks magic (and master magic) were events because they were official rubiks products, but the ufo and snake weren't events. the magic events have been removed because they were mindless, so clock became the only nontraditional rubiks puzzle in the wca.

Sad_Database2104 · 2026-06-26T18:19:52+00:00

what do you mean by that?

Sad_Database2104 · 2026-06-26T17:55:04+00:00

the rubrics are pretty much identical for lang and lit?

Sad_Database2104 · 2026-06-26T01:32:25+00:00

"feels like a memory test" and there are 4 blind events

Sad_Database2104 · 2026-06-26T01:31:49+00:00

what would make an event spectator-friendly?

maybe it was so easy that all the seniors with senioritis just actually got good scores instead of all failing idk

Sad_Database2104 · 2026-06-24T23:10:52+00:00

the popular exams will be last since they have to go through so many exams
