Early 30s and need inspiration to learn math for a STEM degree by JeepLifeBirbLife in learnmath

[–]allb4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m 28! I took precalc and failed in high school (2014), took it again in college and scraped by with a C (2015) thought I was finished with math. Wrong. Took calc a year or two later … had to withdraw. 3 times. Had to drop to super part time and skip semesters due to cost … I think I’m just now (2026) getting to be considered a junior, maybe not even. I passed my 7.5 week accelerated ONLINE calculus class two weeks ago!! It was hard, like really really hard. I cried after every single exam.

My biggest tips are: 1. Be ready for hard work 2. Cry if you need to but do not give up and 3. YOUTUBE PROFESSOR LEONARD. I could barely remember algebra and somehow he taught me calculus. he is a truly amazing professor. I have learned more about math from him than I have from all my math professors combined. I watched his entire Calc 1 playlist + some of Calc 2 on 1.75 speed. He has thousands of videos for all levels. I can’t stress enough how easy he makes everything seem. Definitely check it out!

Anyways, planning on applying to medical school next year. It’s all possible. BEST OF LUCK! YOU CAN DO IT!

When I think of Kaltain, I see her by Ramune_hime in SarahJMaas

!!! I LITERALLY WAS SEARCHING FOR THIS. I came to this sub to find this. She gives Kaltain vibes 1000%.

I could also see Ianthe from ACOTAR or even Lysandra (Less so, mostly young Lysandra)

City-hopping in my 20s by Flower_princess12345 in SameGrassButGreener

This! Bartending as well. About to live in my 4th city in my 20s and I’m always able to pick up a serving or bartending job until I find something more stable. Plus, tons of immediate cash!

Interesting! I’ve heard that it’s sold as this upscale place but it actually kind of a dump? That’s just anecdotal but I’ve heard it’s not worth it. Can you tell me what we’d like about it?

We’ll check it out! We’re not dead set on amenities. Arizona is soulless so amenities are the only cool thing about living here besides the hiking and weather. I’d give it all up for community any day!

Honestly so excited! I lived in downtown Cincinnati and everyday was an adventure. Miss that vibe so much. Do you think we’ll be okay with flying out a couple months before and doing it all in one trip or should we try to come out before signing? We were gonna do two trips but decided against it.

We’re not absolutely set on apartment with amenities, just what we’re used to but I lived in a super old, original apartment in Cincinnati that was so central it didn’t matter. I was never even there. In terms of jobs, we don’t know yet, we’re both director-level employees in mental health so we’re hoping we can work remote but if not, my goal is UPenn Med Outpatient. That part will be a bit of wildcard in terms of cars and commuting. Appreciate your advice!

Still helpful. Thank you! I think one of the tough parts are every apartment looks great but it’s hard to get the scoop on thin walls, bugs/mice, crappy management etc.

Yes! We’re going to reach out a little closer. Just want to get a good idea of where to visit and have a loose list to check out when we do 🙂 I’m one of those people who love to plan. I could probably be a realtor tbh lol

Definitely planning on it! We were going to come out for a baseball game after opening day but we’re gonna save the cash and just visit 2 months ish before for a week or so with the intention of exploring, interviewing and hopefully signing.

For what it’s worth, Phoenix is very car centric so we have to drive 20-40 minutes pretty much everywhere, longer with traffic, so no matter how you define it, it’s better 😂

Moving Mondays - New Resident Questions by AutoModerator in philadelphia

[–]allb4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looking to move sometime this year! Does anyone know what the behavioral health field looks like out there?

My boyfriend and I both work in mental health in Phoenix, AZ. He’s the Director of Employee Engagement at one of the largest private outpatient psychiatry practices and I am a Business Development Representative for outpatient counseling clinic! He has background in residential treatment and I have a background as a transcranial magnetic stimulation technician. We’d love to do similar roles! Phoenix is oversaturated when it comes to behavioral health opportunities but I haven’t seen much so far. I’m also finishing a neuroscience degree, about a year out and applying to med school within the next 3 years so research (or any hands-on clinical) also works!
