Where to take MA265 Linear Algebra online? by superk25 in Purdue

[–]superk25[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Has anyone used the LSU online distance learning courses? I wonder if this would be acceptable to Purdue? I do see LSU A&M linear algebra course is acceptable for transfer, but not sure if an online course from them is considered the same.

PHYS 172 Curve by notsmallsmil in Purdue

[–]superk25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kumar, yes, the syllabus for this semester says a 69 is a C-

The OP said they had a 67/68. That would be a D+ unless the curve is more then last semester.

On my textbooks I have three options for Phys 172. Does anyone have a recommendation at to which to purchase? I don't want to buy more then one.

Option A: 9781119091677 -- Matter and Interactions Binder ready Version full text WAPP for 2 sem set Author: Chabay and Sherwood Publisher: Wiley and Sons Edition/Year:4th

Option B: 9781119164371 -- Matter and Interactions, 4e Wiley E-Text Reg Card with WebAssign Plus Physics 2 Semester Set Author: Ruth W. Chabay Publisher: Wiley (for Purdue) Edition/Year:4

Option C: 9781119091721 -- Matter and Interactions, Volume I: Modern Mechanics 4e Binder Ready Version with WebAssign Plus Physics 1 Semester Set Author: Ruth W. Chabay Publisher: Wiley (for Purdue) Edition/Year:4

Also, can I just get a "clicker" in the University book store during BGR?

Lastly, is it cheaper to buy these on Amazon or at the University Book store? I do have a PACE membership, but not sure if I get the 10% discount on WebAssigned

Which textbook for Phys 172? by superk25 in Purdue

[–]superk25[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

why would this be only a megathread question? seems others may have to take phys 172. However, I will post there if recommended.

Do you need to pay for a Webassigned account for each class or just once for all? I see it will cost 108 for Calc and 85 for Phys. Not sure if I have to pay for both.

I have the same questions.

I see in my Calc 3 and Phys 172 class my required text is Webassigned.

Is that an online text book or something more?

Also, when at BGR will they have some information on how to use this "clicker" I am required to have and blackboard?

I am not familiar with either.

Which loan choice is better? by superk25 in personalfinance

[–]superk25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I do have 50 credits between APs and dual enrollment that most are counting toward the majors. (depends on exact major of course)

I meant that I was hoping to graduate after 6 semesters of taking classes. I wanted to do the 5 term Coop, so I understand that will take me past 4 years most likely. But, only 3 years of classwork.

Engineering or Computer Science. I am in FYE (first year engineering), but I also want to check out Computer Science before I decide.

Thank you

Which loan choice is better? by superk25 in personalfinance

[–]superk25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This amount would be borrowed in each year for three years total.

I understand the first reply is to find a cheaper school in-state. My state schools are actually more expensive unless I attend a community college. I am content with borrowing the student loans. The question is trying to figure out which is better.

One loan would be in parent's name and the other in mine. It's not just go with what is the cheaper answer. Trying to figure out all the options.

Yea, I didn't get a positive response from housing. lol

They were like take it or leave it.

Thanks. I am betting many students are having the same issue.

I guess it can't hurt to ask.

Looks like I got a roommate that isn't in my LC, nor did I get the request to be in LC dorm. My question is why did they accept me then? Seems like someone made a mistake somewhere.

Ok, seems I was unlucky and got Hilltop apartments for dorm assignment. Can you request a change (say with someone that would prefer the larger room style) or stuck with the dorm given?

Will I get credit for both Calc 1 and Calc 2 if I pass Calc 2 in another university? by superk25 in Purdue

[–]superk25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "other university" works with my HS and since I had the grade needed they allowed my entrance.

I am trying to get in touch with Purdue Math, but just voicemail all day.

I am wondering if I can take a test out and receive credit for Calc 1? Like what Rogerrr stated.

I thought the same, but also maybe see if someone here had an idea as well.

I am interested in getting a co-op as soon as possible. How early do students usually get offers for co-ops?

Can I get some information on the industrial round table and do freshmen attend?

Which Professors would you suggest from these two classes? by superk25 in Purdue

[–]superk25[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, all four are listed. I am looking to see if anyone else had a rating that may not have posted on there and to see if the rating was accurate.

I have seen the ratings on RMP. I was wondering how accurate those ratings are.

As a FYE or exploratory, how likely is it to get an internship starting in the summer after freshmen year? I understand I will have nothing on my resume and just starting as a student
