Independent study for math: meaningless

<p>Well… you’re the sort of person that *****es about problems and gets depressed over stuff like that.</p>

<p>If you had any gumption about you… you’d be more motivated.</p>

<p>You wouldn’t get depressed over this.</p>

<p>I could care less if you have a better shot “Good job identifying what you believe is the flaw; propose your opinion of why it was that”…lolwat don’t need to sound intellectual…we already can tell what your real intelligence is like</p>

<p>OP, if it makes you feel any better, I take back my comment that you aren’t good enough. </p>

<p>You just didn’t work hard enough.</p>

<p>^u mad bro? u mad?</p>

<p>Just admit the truth and accept it. It makes you a better person.</p>

<p>You shall report yourself. Ok.</p>

<p>Obviously it’s a joke. Lighten up, will ya?</p>

<p>Of course you’re mad. You have a reason to be mad for not meeting your goals. My thing is, don’t be depressed about it. Work harder. And if you want to call me an idiot, I suggest you know who you’re calling an idiot. You can’t even do simple Alg 2 ****.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>fortunately this one is not as annoying, in fact I know him very well, and eh my 2¢ to him, and everyone else here, is just cool it, Some nasty remarks and arrogance floating here, so won’t bother to address them, because the posters know exactly what I’m talking about. </p>

<p>I think the OP made it vague, but he’d rather be in the Alg 2 Trig Class with 10 other accelerated sophomores, instead of a crowded class of 30 kids with less attention. Is it a big deal? Not really, is getting rejected from ivy also not a big deal? Not really, at least not in big scheme of life, but it’s nice, so guys how about posting constructive suggestions, and assume the altruism of this post, you guy’s don’t know him, although I do, and I want to appease any doubts about his sincerity, albeit his vocabulary is annoying at times, hence MITHopeful’16’s comment “The new Joz” lol</p>

<p>Ah… if that’s the case, then I understand the situation.</p>

<p>Sorry for the misconception.</p>

<p>I guess I’ll use this opportunity to vent a little too. I’ve been feeling the same way lately, like we’ve all been running together for a long time and now my peers have decided to start sprinting but I’m still at a light jog. A lot of times in life, we only get one chance. We can’t go back and make it so that we studied as hard as everyone else back in the 8th grade or something, and the fact that we can’t do that means that we’re going to be left behind. All a person can really do is remember what sunk our ship in the past, and use that information to sail forward. Cuz it’s a big blue watery road. But hey, at least we’re on a boat. And we’re gonna take that boat to the moon somehow. Like Kevin Garnett, anything is possible bro.</p>

<p>Anyway, point is, there’s always someone better than you at something. Take T-pain. You will never autotune as good as he can. Or take me. You can’t be as much of a tool as I’ve been with my “I’m On a Boat” references. So just make the most of what you have. And I didn’t totally take an exact quote from Futurama.</p>

<p>Btw, guys, found out my scores. Geometry final exam : 92; Transcript grade: 97…Algebra 2/Trigonometry final exam: 75…This is sort of a “on-probation” moment. I can continue in Trig, as my very nice teacher said; however, the Head of the AP department might give a hard time when I try to get into Calculus next year.
@SuperGenericMan, thanks a lot for the pep/stand-up, it actually cheered me up :)</p>

<p>Jacobtess the only part of your thread I agree with is the title. “Meaningless” is a great way to describe your study of mathematics. </p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Wow based on your many flames to responders, you were looking for a very specific type of feedback. Not any kind.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Seriously? Did you learn English a couple months ago?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>You got questions wrong. You’re not perfect. You act like you’re entitled to perfection and every time you fail, it’s some kind of cosmic and universal wrong against you. And before you flame me and personally attack me, I am an HSL alum(different account) and current Wharton soph with a 3.9 gpa. So don’t even try.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>You’re carrying on like a little kid. Don’t show others cruelty and then expect them to respond nicely.</p>

<p>Lol I was a beast at math in elementary/middle school. Then I got lazy and chose to do Geometry freshman year. Then I actually thought I could do more and skipped to Precalc. Though the beginning of the year I was making those “****ty” dumb mistakes as I wasn’t used to math at that level anymore. But… now I’m acing every fkin test and probably #2 in the grade for math(this kid is already in AP Calc as a sophomore:Lol he’s luck he had the chance to do Algebra2 when he was in 8th grade ■■ HIM YO!)
Result:
It doesn’t matter how much you brag, there is always going to be someone MUCH better than you, but just didn’t put as MUCH effort as you…</p>

<p>I could care less what my gpa is to be honest, and that sat score is old…I got a 2110 this december with a 750 on the math section. Also, I haven’t gotten below a 96 on any math final exam, plus I have a 99 in AP Calc right now. So, I’m still better than you</p>

<p>^Thank you, we see you’re the Math God, :slight_smile: Care to give us curs</p>

<p>Haha I’m not saying I’m better than any one else in math, just Jacobtess</p>

<p>your point?</p>

<p>Albert Einstein wasn’t really that good at math…</p>
