I'm sorry.

[SJ Zero]

I'm sort of dehaiatused for a week because I've got a week off after exams. I'm not fully there yet (still got 4 exams to write), but the walls are down and the firewalls disabled. For now. Next sunday I'll probably throw them back up, depending on the results. :/

1000101: Basics is Basic Electronics, a class where we learn to bias and design circuits using NPN and PNP transistors, Zener Diodes, LEDs, and rectifier diodes.

Dr_Davenstein: This isn't high school. Everyone who made it to the second term has a story, and none of them are about slackers. This program is hell, it's meant to be hell. At this point, nobody cares that the reason I'm failing is because of a 'good' reason. We're playing for keeps.

Jofers: Before I left the community I was doing 4 hours of studying a day. After I left, it fluctuated, but I ended up peaking at 6-7 in the last week of classes, for several days on a stretch. I was an honor student through high school, but this is a different beast. If I only did 9-5, I'd fail everything.

On the other hand, I'll be able to make absurd amounts of money afterwards if I want to. That's worth something in itself.

tbbq: Most classes I did fairly well on. I managed to get an A in calculus and physics, for example. I got a B+ in project management, 102% in Instruments, something in the mid 90s in IT Essentials, but 54% in circuits and the aforementioned 36% in basics. It's ironic as hell, but the truth is still depressing.

Lachie: Thermodynamics sounds fun. Hope you get to continue it.

DrV: No I wasn't.

Anyway, that's the story. I need to get back to reading about project management. <gags>

SJ, its good to see you. Been a long time since I talked to you =P. I know you will clear this time!

[DrV]

DrV: No I wasn't.

eh... :-? I must have had a brain fart or something...

I wouldn't personally go as far as saying thermodynamics is fun. LAst year's practical was luckily thermodynamics,and since it is easy I aced it, but it is one of the most boring topics in Physics, I think.

[TheBigBasicQ]

eww...thermodynamics is in no way fun! It's THE MOST BORING parts of physics.

I passed Thermodynamics in front of the commission!!! Wohooooooo!
God, it was the worst day of my life. I probably lost 3 kg just waiting for the exam to start. I supposed to start at 9 h but, as usually, it started a 9 h and 45 minutes. I also didn't know if I passed the written part. When I finally got there I was able to see I passed the written part. Luckily the professors where ok on the theory part. They didn't asked crazy things so I passed since I studied like for eternity.

Thermodynamic at my college is one of the most difficult exams. I don't know what kind of lite Thermodynamic YOU study but each of Thermodynamics at my college(I and II) include theory books with 300 pages. Not to mention how difficult is to master the numerical problems.

Cheers dude! Good job.

I'm 17 studying Physics in school.

Chances are someone studying Physics at a college or a university will be doing more advanced stuff than me.

Although, I in general find Physics pretty easy.

[TheBigBasicQ]

physics is absolutely simple if you get the hang of it :roll:

[na_th_an]

At my college Physics are really hard. We focus more in the electromagnetism, waves and quantic physics areas. And I can assure you it's pretty hard.

People are, for example, asked to learn the demonstration for the Schröedinger's wave equations, which need knowledge of complex second order diferential equations. As normal people don't know shit about that when they are in 1st course (when Physics is taught), they have to learn the three pages of ecuations number by number like authomatas. In my exam (which I thankfully passed), I had to write the whole demonstration... That was crazy :o
