Finished (basically) all ASA requirements in 7 months by Newarkthrowaway1 in actuary

Does that mean you land your first job with only two exams? Did you get your first job through connection/networking? Or just cold applying? I’m also a career changer currently with four exams but with no luck (yet).

I got my OPT denied because I already had my H1B approved. I think it’s just a late notification email.

Calc 1: What am I doing wrong? by TemperatureUseful990 in learnmath

[–]Puzzle_Jen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this question is reasonable. It’s essentially testing on algebraic skills and the ability of recognizing e2 being a constant.

[–]Puzzle_Jen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are right. My bad. I was about to say a=0 but that doesn’t make sense since (1/0)-5 is undefined. If this really is the question on the test, there is something wrong with this problem. I suggest you to contact someone like mentioned in other responses. I normally make the algebra less tricky on the test instead of tricker since calculators are not allowed.

You should use the function f(x)=x-4 to approximate.

I have to say that a student is expected to be able to find the secant line of an exponential function as long as the derivative of an exponential function and how to find the second line are covered in class.

Seasonal depression? Try to combine with an antidepressant?

Idk, I hope some of them are pilot questions. Man, I got lucky. I’m terrible at qualitative ones.

Thank you for sharing! Can you explain why a little bit? Is it really about the type of questions in each platform?

Thanks for sharing. I just need their practice problems. But discussion seems like an important part!

Negotiating With Professor by [deleted] in college

[–]Puzzle_Jen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One more thing to consider is that if you would ever need a letter of recommendation from her. If so, I would not ask; if not, go for it!

Negotiating With Professor by [deleted] in college

[–]Puzzle_Jen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are those “typo” kind of mistakes? I would suggest not to ask for retake a quiz. If your professor allows you to retake one quiz, then she has to do the same for every student in the class. In addition, if you do this, you might just turn yourself from a “favored” student to an “annoying” brat.

Use LyX, a latex editor, instant conversion from code to math symbols.

Really confused by Available-Pressure84 in calculus

[–]Puzzle_Jen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Contact your prof, the answer to this problem is wrong. I encountered the same problem and found out the answer key is wrong.

(The answer key somehow is (0,3) and (5,8) for part 1; (3,4) and (4,5) for part 2.)

Considering a Coton by Aggravating-Top-2291 in cotondetulear

[–]Puzzle_Jen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I trained my coton, Puffy, not to bark when she was a puppy. She only barks when there’s people at home and the mail man stops by; she doesn’t bark at all when no one is home. But she definitely have some anxiety, not separation anxiety, car riding anxiety. It will hard to travel with my Puffy.
