<p>The volume of a tetrahedron whose vertices are expressed in vector form is equal to one-sixth of the determinant of the matrix formed from the vectors.</p>

<p>My only reaction: "Wow."</p>

<p>That I have less than a week to finish and application, get a teacher rec, and my transcript for a summer program. UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhgggggg.</p>

<p>^not a useless fact if you care about it.</p>

<p>I learned that observational psychology is a lucrative field.</p>

<ul>
<li>46% of Americans develop mental illness in their lifetime. Probably not the same 46% that do drugs</li>
<li>People with high IQs are less likely to have post-traumatic stress disorder, even when you control for their lesser exposure to trauma</li>
<li>The literacy rate in America is 99%</li>
<li>The average US female life expectancy is 81.13</li>
<li>Fuel prices where I live are $1.95 a gallon</li>
</ul>
