Any questions for a current student?

<p>ewww i did taylor series last semester, & i ABSOLUTELY hated it.
right now i’m actually almost done with the vector geometry, this is so-so…</p>

<p>i’m not sure if you know this, but is there a minimum of math credit we could do to satisfy the grad requirement? but i guess it may depend on the major you are applying to (do you know anything about this too??). i might as well just repeat 124 and 125 and get easy grades if i just have to fulfill certain credits.</p>

<p>you aren’t required to take any math at all if you are majoring in something else that doesn’t require it. I, stupidly in hindsight, thought i might do something with math because I liked it in high school. I took the BC AP test in HS and did not get enough credit to pass out of 125. let’s just say 125 was a traumatizing experience. for me at least, college calc was wayyy harder than in high school. idk maybe i’m stupid or something. </p>

<p>there is also a really cool website that the advising offices have put together that has info on all the majors and the requirements for them. it may be helpful to see what you have to do for the majors you’re interested in:
[UW</a> Advising - List of Majors](<a href=“http://www.washington.edu/uaa/gateway/advising/majors/majoff.php]UW”>http://www.washington.edu/uaa/gateway/advising/majors/majoff.php)</p>

<p>@spaceneedle thank you for sharing that link. very useful site indeed.</p>

<p>Are the cherry blossoms in bloom? Will they still be in bloom in April?</p>

<p>Spaceneedle: So, we don’t have to take math as a requirement? what about science? It says that you are required to take the math placement test unless you took the statewide placement test in high school, scored high enough on the Advancement Placement (AP) and/or International Baccalaureate (IB) test, or have college credit for math.
I have none of these…</p>

<p>gimmel, here are [UW</a> Web cams](<a href=“http://www.washington.edu/cambots/]UW”>Web Cams).</p>

<p>you only need those things if you plan on continuing math in college so they know what level you need to start at. there is no concrete requirement that says you MUST take math or science. instead, there are requirements called “areas of knowledge” that you need a certain number of credits in to fulfill (again, that website i posted has extensive info on this as well). it’s quite possible you can find classes that fulfill the requirements you need without ever having to take a math class. it is very flexible. </p>

<p>gimmel: yes, they are blooming! they began early this year but i’m sure will be in full force in april.</p>

<p>Are classes esp. difficult? Is it very hard to have a gpa of 3.8+?</p>
