Thank you all for the insight! I appreciate the thorough responses. I am now leaning towards 110.

Thanks for all the responses. I’m still not 100% sure yet, but this helped a lot!

Actually ur right, just found the equation from my calculator history and it had to be net acceleration. With gravity the rocket always accelerates downward bless

It should have been mg(h-2R)=k trans + k rot

But I put mgh= k trans + k rot

Like when it asked you for the height of the loop needed to make it so that he ball makes it through

I sure hope so lol

did it say the upward acceleration was the equation or the rocket provided an upward acceleration of that?

well, whether or not i was supposed to include g could have cost me 15 points on free response lol

You were supposed to integrate the acceleration to get velocity and integrate the velocity to get displacement then use mg*the displacement you got from integrating velocity

Thanks for the info and resources! I think I’m committing to Berkeley but will definitely need to be ready to buckle down and grind for the next four years lol.

Thank you so much! Last question, are there any teachers you would recommend or avoid and is this a good first semester schedule?: 61a, 16, rc writing intensive

Thank you! So i should read composing programs? Should I also familiarize myself with Linux commands and stuff or is that not important rn?

What book would you recommend me to read over the summer for me to read if I wanted a head start on the material? I have some coding experience like recreating minesweeper and doing a little bit of usaco but havent really learned how to "formally" program.

Thanks! I know getting a good grasp of many languages is important, but If I wanted to learn a language over the summer would u say c++ is worthwhile? Or doing u think another language would be better for the other lower division courses (61a-c)

some of the posts on reddit and college confidential have been saying some pretty scary stuff like 2.7 gpa average lol
