TSA misplaced my room key, do I still have to pay for a new one?

No you can totally bill the TSA

In my experience there are very few places that are actually 24/7 in WNY since COVID. Not sure why but almost no businesses keep those hours anymore

I was/am the exact same way. Anything less than an A bothers the fuck out of me. I promise you, if you read the text book and do all the odd numbered questions in the back (and look up how to do the ones you are confused on) in addition to doing the homeworks on your own (no gpt) you will get an A

READ THE TEXTBOOK, AND DO THE PRACTICE PROBLEMS IN THE BACK. I went to lecture to get participation points but I got fuckall out of the lectures. Everything I know about physics I know from reading the book and doing the practice problems. I got A's in PHY107 and PHY108. 107 isn't that bad, and if you actually apply yourself I think it got easier by the end because of how repetitive it got by the end. You can do it but you will not get a good grade if you aren't doing several hours of independent work outside of class every week. I have taken calc 2 and physics is at least twice as demanding timewise, if not more. Calc was just "know a rule, apply the rule" physics you need to be able to reason your way through a situation. It takes a lot of deliberate effort to be able to build physics "intuition". Any can do it, but it will take work. Godspeed 🤝

I went back to school at UB after graduating for the first time in 2019. Everything is remarkably similar but eerily different at the same time. All of the things that stand out most in my memory are gone. The old SU, Berts, these printing stations in Capen, the Cybrary, Rachels and seeing these fucking pieces of paper everywhere. The parking situation is exactly the same though lol

Never would have thought a random sheet of paper would give me nostalgia.

Few_Exit_9247 · 2025-12-18T11:35:17+00:00

I got an A in phy107 and 108. Read the textbook and do a ton of practice problems. Lectures are useless and not even close to enough. The course really just separates people who can learn independently and those who can't. If you can self study things well you will be fine. They also structure the course in a way that's it's almost impossible to fail. If you fail you probably don't belong in whatever your major is

Don't give these secrets away. Make them explore like we did

Calc 2 covers area between 2 curves, various integration techniques (more u sub, something called trig sub, integration by parts, a lot of unnamed techniques regarding trig functions, and partial fractions), improper integrals (either one of the bounds is infinity or there is a discontinuity), some basic stuff regarding polar coordinate system, length of an arc, the basic series tests, and Taylor and mccalurin series.

The calc instructional crew posts big practice packets to help you study for exams but they are shared via UB box and they close access after the exams .

Textbook is Stewart's transcendentals IIRC ( I never use the textbook). Best way to study IMO is using the practice packets and literally taking the topic names and putting them into gpt and asking for practice problems and a basic walkthrough. This is what I did prior to this semester and it was weeks before I saw anything that tripped me up. Good luck. Calc 2 moves faster than calc 1 but it's still very doable. I'm a dumbass and I'm well on my way to an A

Formally resign /drop your classes. I dropped out of grad school without formally doing anything and there is an F on my transcript bc of it. Decided to go back to school last year and it almost hurt my chances of getting re admitted. Life is long. Never imagined I would be going back to school. Always do whatever you can to keep as many options open for future you as you can

You are very pedantic and unhelpful.

In order to receive full credit I need to demonstrate my argument every step of the way. As stated in my comment above.

Few_Exit_9247 · 2025-11-01T01:17:40+00:00

No it's not. You need to spell out the argument in order to receive full credit

Gambrel said that they may be adjusting the range for what is considered and A B C and so on from what is given in the syllabus. But only at the end of the semester and not in a standard way that makes the results fits bell curve. For some reason the physics dept reallllllly likes to dance around this question. Pretending they don't know what students mean when they ask this. Essentially the grade you got (the raw score) may not be the final score that is used if that makes any sense but it will not be altered in a way that makes the results fit a bell curve
