The Title
Over the course of this semester, the class before my calc three lecture has covered from precalculus all the way to double integrals. In other words, three and a half college semesters of math (including precalc as a semester).
Wut.
Forgot Algebra The only things you HAVE to know are how to make enough of a living to stay alive and how to get your taxes done. All the fun parts of life are optional.
i hate calculus
Like, I know how to do everything, but I’m just incapable of actually doing it.
It’s kind of like knowing the steps to riding a bike but being unable to do it physically.
Grr. Smeagol hateses calculuses.
MMMMM. I’m getting nothing done. I haven’t even been on tumblr since I started homework. W@@#%(@#*()@#*%()!@%*(#@)$*@(!%_#@)_*%#@#(%*@#)$*@#
mmmmm. Though my frustration may be linked to another regularly occurring frustration. I DON’T CARE I CAN’T DO MY CALCULUS I HATE IT.
MMMMMMMGRRRRRRRRRRRRR.
AND! I CAN’T OPEN MY FRICKIN’ SODA BOTTLE. MY HAND HURTS AND NO ONE IS IN THE COMP SCI BUILDING. @#*%(@#)*!#_%&#()@%&!()#%&#()@%&(!_#%&@#%
not a good homework-block-time today…
GUHHHHHHHHH.
Okies. Byes.
I have been doing so much calc, I’m actually out of looseleaf.
I would do it in my notebook, but I need pages for notes…
Now I just have to decide whether I should just stop for tonight and pick it up tomorrow or go home and get more paper…
Hmm. I was kind of on a roll too…oh well. If I go home there’s no way I’m going back to the library. Well I did sort clean my desk…ish.
Muh. Well nothing will get done if I just stay on tumblr. Grr. So note to self: bring entire packet of looseleaf to library from now on.
Muh. Okies. Byes.
How most math professors think
-
Prof:
Okay, I'm done with lecture. Now go do 71 math problems, half of which require outside software.
-
Class:
Um, okay?
-
Prof:
Do this quiz that only has two questions but is worth 100 points.
-
Class:
Fine...
-
Prof:
*before exam* Oh this exam is terrible! It covers everything and is just like the homework and quizzes and homework! I want tenure! Oh my God, the scores on this exam might actually reflect each student's knowledge! This must be fixed immediately...
-
Prof:
*at exam* Okay, class, here's the exam. But remember: all the homework and quizzes will be completely irrelevant.
-
Class:
WHA--
-
Prof:
Also, remember: unless you're that one freshman who is also an astrophysicist, you're going to not do well.

Class:
WHY--

Prof:
Bell curve people!

Class:
WHO GIVES A SH--
-
Prof:
Okay, you have 90 minutes to complete the 18 problem exam! *for those of you in high school, in a college calculus class, this would be impossible to complete in 90 minutes*
-
Class:
*does exam*
-
Prof:
*at the next lecture* Wow! You guys really sucked! Three students got perfect scores, damn them to hell. The rest of you scored around a 60%. So according to the bell curve, you all get Fs!
-
Class:
THAT'S NOT HOW A BELL CURVE WOR--

Prof:
Don't care! Moving on..
