something interesting

<p>as i study SAT math and do SAT math probems i am beginning to realize something. i always thought math was interesting but never fun. (i'm a humanities/science guy). anyways, i'm suddenly beginning to enjoy the way things just click and work together in math. it's...cool.</p>

<p>i can't get that.. :(</p>

<p>I'm like that too. I love English type stuff, but there's just something about math that always makes sense.</p>

<p>I really wish I could do that.
I just can't figure out what to tell myself to mentaly like math.</p>

<p>I agree about math... but for me it didn't happen during the SAT. Just in my math classes I love how everything is so elegant, and makes so much sense :D</p>

<p>i have yet to see the elegance of things just yet. my mind still thinks in terms of coolness. my father can see the beauty in math, though. :)</p>

<p>haha... I love love love math. Partly because last year I had this REALLY awesome teacher for precalc. It was so cool the way she explained everything, so you could picture why stuff worked.</p>

<p>after studying CR for about a week, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE math!</p>

<p>^ hahahaha. After studying CR for awhile, I'm starting to (kind of) like CR.</p>

<p>thats also because alot of SAT math isnt really hardcore math, its logic applied to numbers...</p>

<p>Meh, I prefer math IIC math. That actually separates the good math people from the bad in a more relevant way than the SAT I, which just tests how good you are at making zero careless mistakes.</p>

<p>^^thats because you are a math elitist :)</p>

<p>Same, its pretty fun to do the more problem-solving type problems. =]</p>

<p>sat math is like calculus AB: really repetitive, almost a no-brainer. (no offense to you guys)</p>

<p>no offense taken. now that i've told my dad that i'm starting to get into it (he luvs math - read the history of pi, workings of the universe, history of algebra, a book about fermat's theorem (you get the picture) he's totally excited and enthusiastic so now he's showing me the induction thing with n and n+1 and how you can prove this for an infinite amount of numbers. trying to wrap my brain around this one, but it's cool:)</p>

<p>Proof by induction is the COOLEST THING EVER. Seriously.</p>

<p>yes it is. omg! he showed me and, omgomg omg! now we're going through fibonacci's numbers or sumthin.</p>

<p>p.s. he went to the library with em yesteray and he found a book on math for me to read. he said it will be very approachable, like fiction, as opposed to dry stuff. well see how that turns out.</p>

<p>Number theory is not my thing. Geometry and algebra all the way!</p>

<p>Do you ever find that advanced math just makes SAT more confusing? On some of them I was just thinking way too hard when the answer is so obvious.</p>

<p>Yes, sadly, that is true for many things in life...</p>

<p>**2 * 3 = <a href="just%20a%20random%20rant">/B</a></p>

<p>Lets see, by proof of induction, we prove the value of x ^ ln (xy^2 log lnx), then we find the negative reciprocal of the absolute value of the value of the previous expression and place the two sequences as the sides of a scalene triangle circumscribed within a hyperbolic equation of the nonnegative recirprocal of x^2 and y^2 placed equivalent to the value of 1 and find the sides using Heron's formula or the value of theta from the cotangent of the angle opposite the sides. Then, using Newton's sums, we find the Sum of the Product of the infinite series of values expressed as a function f(x) and represented by the sum n(n+1)\2 as we can clearly see each of the multiplied values are consective integers, and multiple them by the negative one-third cube root, then randomly throw in the proof of the Poincare conjecture to get 12 as our final answer.</p>

<p>wow :eek: that's super advanced and i dont even know some of those things, but wtvr. mr. math genius :p</p>
