I'm graduating this year too, honestly though I don't know if I entirely want to go to college yet.  I mean, I know it'll be fun and all, but high school's fun too, and leaving all that behind's gonna be hard.

Only physics for engineers has calc in it.  It's not like its hard calc.  If you’ve taken multivariable calc or differentials then this is just a walk in the park, simple calc stuff.

I have enough trouble getting to my 9:20AM classes <_<

Tell us how it went Under  :)  


Title: I'm graduating
Post by: underruler on May 27, 2006, 06:25:07 PM
It went okay.  I think I got a good grade because I got a bunch of ladies in my room.  For my senior project I built some ramps, and then I made portfolios of the process.  So they probably didn't really notice that I wasn't really looking at them all of the time.  I was just reading my note cards.


Title: I'm graduating
Post by: Lord Lanair on May 28, 2006, 06:15:19 AM
Um... what are boards?  :miffed:  


Title: I'm graduating
Post by: underruler on May 29, 2006, 02:21:22 AM
At my school we have to do a senior project that is supposed to be a stretch and challenge, and boards are the days when the seniors give their speech on what they did and whatever to a panel of judges who give us grades.  The board is worth 10% of my grade and the portfolio was worth 5%.


Title: I'm graduating
Post by: smi256 on May 31, 2006, 08:55:24 PM
sounds like crap to me <_<
I didn't do anything like that.  But the honor students put on a renaissance fair  LOL  


Title: I'm graduating
Post by: DDM on June 02, 2006, 03:50:10 AM
Sounds like what I'll have t do for my final year project, although it will just be to my supervisors and two other faculty members, to whom I must present my work.

It really sounds sucky :(


Title: I'm graduating
Post by: Lord Lanair on June 02, 2006, 08:15:56 AM
But what class do these grades count towards?  And I wish we could have done a renfaire!  :(  


Title: I'm graduating
Post by: matt_the_shark on June 09, 2006, 09:08:07 PM
Classes ended today here, so I am saddened. :(

My last exam is this Tuesday. Two media essays in an hour and a half, causing sore wrists, a dent in my knuckle from holding a pen, an achey brain, and several nice big huge 'oh crap' moments afterwards as I realise just how many points I forgot to include in each essay.

Fun fun fun fun.  :rolleyes:
