Why would there be salt? Soy sauce, anyone?

Since everyone else seems to be doing this by class, let's look at my schedule point-by-point, starting with most favourite.

AP Economics: Macro
Difficulty: 1/5
Rating: 5/5
Awesome in all ways. Thought provoking and I really liked the projects, albeit I always ended up doing all the work for group projects.


AP Physics B (C)
Difficulty: 2/5 (4/5)
Rating: 5/5 (5/5)
Physics B alone I found a lot harder than C, because it was phrased in a manner more like a biology/chemistry class. Yes, I find the "easier" course harder than the "hard" course. My physics teacher goes above and beyond the normal pace and material, but since I won't get the chance to take his C class, and he gave me a physics book that I can really relate to, I decided to study independently for the C test. Not to say that I don't like chemistry, because I thought the advanced class was a lot of fun. The normal chemistry class sucked though. When I started to do C, it seemed a lot more like what I think it is: applied mathematics, which made a lot more sense to me. And I really do like the Halliday/Resnick physics book, as it explains concepts clearly but thoroughly.

AP Japanese Language
Difficulty: 5/5
Rating: 4/5
It's not as though the actual class is that bad, but that there is this gap that is so massive, that of one who can speak fluently and us struggling to piece together the language. The fact that only 3 other people in the class are actually students and that most everyone else goofs off is a tad bothering.

Orchestra
Difficulty: 1/5
Rating: 4/5
Fun, the teacher is interesting, but the music is too easy and the level of the orchestra is too low.

AP Calculus AB (BC)
Difficulty: 1/5 (3/5)
Rating: 3/5 (4/5)
Taking this class after 10AM, I realize that AB is easy as hell. I look back at last year, and think that it must have been pretty bad for me not to understand it then. The lack of depth and the limited--no pun intended--scope of the class seems so blatantly visible to me that I wonder how I could have been so stupid. Ironically, most of the BC material that isn't overlap is mostly physics concepts and application. Which is pretty intuitive on the most part, at such a basic level.


AP English Literature
Difficulty: Variable
Rating 3/5
On the bright side, the teacher isn't that boring and it's in the afternoon. Sadly, the class is boring and would rather talk about their consumerism/fucking/drugs or any combination of the three.

A symmetry of such petty shapes and symbols cannot compare to the symmetry of thoughts and ideas. To your second contention, it's called fallacious reasoning, and your definition is unwarranted.

A correlation between two systems cannot be equated with a causal relationship.

Is there anything actually intrinsically wrong with the PS3 console?


It costs about twice as much as a console should.

It cannot be compared to what a console should cost, but what it's worth. And from what I hear, its hardware is pretty spiffy. Should a console have a set price?

I cannot answer for anyone else, but I don't know enough about human biology to claim to understand the workings of the human brain. Personally? I definitely don't think in physical models, it's too limiting.

Your "facts" are simply the creation of your imagination. The burden of truth concerning your contention that pattern recognition directly aids learning lies on you, not me to disprove it. By the way, associative learning is indeed defined as:

Posted by http://www.bartleby.com/61/74/A0477400.html
A type of learning principle based on the assumption that ideas and experiences reinforce one another and can be linked to enhance the learning process.


The definition clearly states that it's based on the assumption that these "links" enhance the learning process.

On your third contention, my answer to you question is: absolutely, correlation != causal relation.

I think I'm going to have to agree there, I only care about post count milestones myself, and not post count in general.

So it's only the large accumulations of postcount++ that matter?

625. Having to do a presentation in front of any group of people.

I guess this is the right point to point out that one of the arguments brought up above is flawed, since in Korea, "Kim" is a last name, not a first one... (as represented by the Chinese character 金) (in fact, you can easily distinguish Korean first names from last ones since the last ones have only one syllable while the first ones mostly have two)

C-C-COMBO BREAKER!

Isn't that a tad obvious?

I plan on someday acquiring a car for transport--or not, as might be the case. I hear they're a hassle at college. But I use public transport, since I'm lame.

I'm not interested in a car. I get along fine with a bicycle and the bus system, in Detroit. Since I plan to live in Europe, I should have no problem over there with their trains and such.

What if you don't like life in Europe? I know you don't like Detroit--my brother said he hated living there, and that was for a few months--but isn't it a bit optimistic to think that Europe will be such a great place to live?

Weird how Banedon, of all people, is the fastest poster these days...hopefully I'm scaring away the ||boarders as well. I'm kinda burning out though lately.

Acmlm's is like a drug, only more addictive...and dangerous.

Seriously. And it's a complete waste of time.

If one can help a thread, can one hurt or kill a thread? Is it unethical to harm threads?
