Rigor is more important than a teacher recommendation(at least to me) @neophite
@neophite I agree w/ everyone else. Aim for rigor rather than teacher recs bc I mean we are only freshmen so I’m sure you can find more teachers who’ll love you in the following years. And yeah, the dancing unit was kind of ughh.
thanks for making that decision easy @adiacs @whimsicalwhims @OMPursuit !
On another note, how different is multivariable calc from calc bc? My school is now offering it as a course, and I am considering it for senior year math
@neophite, I am pretty sure that multivariable calculus takes the calculus concepts and adds variables. Calc I and II is calc in one variable, MC is calc is more than one variable.
I will have multi variable and BC Calc junior year. Then linear algebra senior year. Blah
Don’t say blah my school stops at BC
Don’t say blah my school stops at BC
@manspeak2u Linear algebra is <3
You get that snazzy basis for advanced physics, yo, and- screw three dimensions, R^n baby!
Edit: Also, you can jump right into Real Analysis! After diff. eq and Real, you’re done with a huge chunk of undergraduate mathematics.
My school stops at Multivariable Calculus but I’m planning on taking AP stat rather than that.
I am working on finding a proffessor to do research with right now… if I can find one (or get admitted to the research summer program I tried for) then I’m not doing research methods, as it would be obselete. My replacement for it is AP Stat @whimsicalwhims My friend who’s a junior had an AP Stat test, and I solved most of the questions (he showed it to me) and I’m a very unintuitive guy when it comes to math…
You could prolly just self-study it with little trouble, @neophite . I hear it’s not so hard, conceptually, but it is a bunch of valuable skills.
Also! I’m (very) interested in research. Tell me how it goes, eh? 
Edit: Also, Times New Roman vs. the world. Who wiins?
@OMPursuit I guess I’ll have to make that decision later down the road when I figure out if I “click” with calculus
The response I got was from a social neuroscientist interested in the theory of mind and self-conciousness… I got lucky cuz neurology is a big passion of mine, and the only positive response I got was from him!
Times New Roman VS The World: Times New Roman is a great font, but I like Georgia, Droid Sans, and Chewy better. Times New Roman would fall third best IMO.
@manspeak2u
How can you take BC Calc at the same time as Multivariable?
From everything I’ve read, multivariable builds on calc 1 & 2.
@neophite I use Droid Sans for presentations pretty much exclusively (mebbe Calibri once in a while).
Georgia is a pretty cool all-purpose font, too!
Times New Roman is my jam for essays, or longer papers of any kind.
And, er… that research sounds so cool. Any advice for contacting people?
Times New Roman is my go to
@Giovuhnni, @Nickarch
If LPW were here, he would declare that Helvetica is the only acceptable font.
Obviously, Comic Sans is the best font
Papyrus is supreme
I like oxygen from google docs when it comes to fonts (:
@neophite cool! which university does he work at? also, is it too late to ask professors if you can research and how did you format the email/letter that you sent them (like what did you include)?
Working alone with a professor would make me way too anxious lol
