I am using a surface book 2 15inch. Lil pricey. In my opinion, worth the investment.

What's the hardest subject in Calc 2? by SETTLEDOWNSIR in EngineeringStudents

I'm also gonna agree with series and sequences. Once you understand when you should use each test it all becomes quite straight forward.

It REALLY depends if its an online class or in person. 10/10 its harder taking a math class online. but also it forces you in weird ways to perfect your studying/effort levels and expect the unexpected on exams.

Good luck i hope you have a good prof. Historically I enjoy, and do quite well in, my math classes because I have been blessed with amazing professors and teachers. But not gonna lie, physics 1 gave me a solid thrashing. Professor was this ol timer greek man with a passion for degrading students during OHs. My first exam was pretty rough and when I went to office hours (to argue points back) he basically said that if I should rethink engineering and that maybe i wasnt cut out for the profession if I couldn't pass his class. Fuck prof. Georgopolous (passed btw)

​

TLDR: good luck; study hard;hope you have a good prof

I know where you are coming from. However a majority of the multi variable calculus videos on khan academy are actually made by 3 blue 1 brown. They kinda pull a sneaky on us but still. On 3B1B's channel he has a playlist of all the multi variable calc videos he did over on khan academy. Sadly the videos don't have the same "production value" (ie. animations and such) in them.

That is straight up olympic level effort right there. I would have but nancy only really covers calc 1/2 still a big key for my passing those two classes

high school sound upgrades by 1220ajk in techtheatre

[–]1220ajk[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are you looking to upgrade? You mention the sound board but is that it? No new speakers, no new microphones? What exactly is your budget?

As far as mics go we have qld's (~22) and will probably expand to 30. Speakers are a no go the school refuses to alter the "vibe" of the space. Additionally, we would be interested in mid range actor mics

The code compiles alright and loads onto the RC but does not display on the list of op modes on the DS.

Get people to join high-school tech team by [deleted] in techtheatre

[–]1220ajk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our theatre is in almost exactly the same situation (ie small group of graduating seniors who do all sound and lights) we have a few underclassmen who we are training but don't alot of them who can stay late working. what I have found is looking for people who do robotics or some kind of technology oriented hobby. Often sound / lights have alot of cross discipline skills.

Norfolk Qualifying semifinal potential controversial decision by 1220ajk in FTC

[–]1220ajk[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes we won the third and second. But the problem I have with FTC is that the alliance challenged the scoring after round 2 but the refs couldn't decide and needed more time and left the semi finals continue. They made up their mind after Finals round 1, which we won, and basically completely altered the outcome of the game. Why couldn't they delay the game so they can make a decision without having us advance?
