Multi-Variable Calc. @ CC, or No Math?

<p>Hey guys,</p>

<p>I’m going into my senior year, and already finished all of the math classes my school offers. I was wondering if I should take Multi-Variable Calc at a local community college, or go mathless senior year.</p>

<p>I know it looks better to take some sort of math class senior year, but I’m also continuing research at a university, and could really use a shorter school day to commit more time to research. (AKA Better chance at Siemens/Intel).</p>

<p>But since I already took all of the math classes at my school (Algebra II H, Geometry H, AP Calc BC, AP Stat, AP Computer Science), would it really be THAT bad to not take a math?</p>

<p>Thanks!!</p>

<p>I think it depends on the difficulty of the course at that particular community college. I’m taking it this year as a junior, but from what I’ve heard it is easy to get an A in the class as long as you do the homework. Also, I’m gonna be in my old Calc class on my off days so the calc teacher can help me with anything I don’t get. I would look at ratemyprofessor.com to see how easy or hard that particular teacher is.</p>

<p>Thanks, but I’m not really worried about the difficulty of the class, just on the time it will cut from my research…</p>

<p>it sounds like you like your feeble research ketone. that’s heart warming to hear. i would do more of that and forget about the calc III.</p>

5

<p>Just don’t forget your algebra skills (this can happen if you take a year off from math classes).</p>

<p>oh yeah, i remember once during the summer when i forgot my algebra. it was the summer of first grade and all of a sudden i realized i couldn’t subtract numbers.</p>

<p>what’s the nature of the research ketone? what’s your opinion of ketones? is acetate friendly?</p>

7

<p>Ketones aren’t functional groups of acetate… awkk</p>

8

<p>Btw, thanks for your interest; I’m touched<3</p>

9

<p>oh it’s aceTONE which is a ketone body. what do you think about him?</p>

10

<p>Acetate and acetone are completely different…</p>

11

<p>but they sound similar. why? because pairs of trembling human chemist hands figured out they were atomically similar. or were the hands even trembling? i don’t know…</p>

12

<p>Not really… acetone is in nail polish; acetate is in vinegar… O_o</p>

13

<p>yeah, i’m not making claims about chemical or biological similarity…</p>

14

<p>I thought “acetate” was in nail polish and “acetone” was used to get rid of it. I am a heavy nail polish buyer ;]</p>

<p>Ok this thread has strayed so far from the original purpose lol</p>
