It's offishul! I's all edumacated now! I gradiated today wit muy Associate degree

[Fellro]

Had the graduation ceremony today, should have the actual degree in the mail next week. Got my pre-engineering Associate of Arts and Science degree.

 

[Blue Goose]

Congratulations Roger!!!!

 

[john112deere]

Congratulations!

 

[Skandocious]

Nice! Congrats dude. What have you been studying specifically?

 

[Fellro]

Right now is just pre-engineering, focus on mechanical. Just got done with Deformable Bodies, Intro to Electrical Science, Dynamics and Physics II, had calc III, Diff Eq, linear Equations and Classical Physics I last semester. Had Statics prior to that.

 

[Skandocious]

Nice! I've taken some of those physics and calc courses

 

[5.0Flareside]

congrats!!!!!!! hope ya use that degree to good use.

 

[1970Custom]

Congratulations, that makes a handful of engineers on this board...

...calc III, Diff Eq, linear Equations and Classical Physics I last semester. Had Statics prior to that.

Yeah, you lost me there...

 

[slmann]

congrats.

 

[Austin]

Congraduations!

 

[Skandocious]

Yeah, you lost me there...

I think he meant linear algebra rather than linear equations. That must have been the confusion.

 

[Fellro]

Yeah, Linear Algebra...Got crossed up with Linear and Diff Eq...

 

[Austin]

Yeah, Linear Algebra...Got crossed up with Linear and Diff Eq...

Lemme make it easier for ya... Math.

 

[Fellro]

Not simple math, that is for sure...Linear Algebra sounds easy, but it is deceiving...

I gave up after trig...

I actually didn't think Linear was that bad. Diff Eq's, on the other hand...

Funny-- I had the same thought when I first signed up for it "Oh algebra?! I'm great at algebra!!"

**weeks later**

"Wait a minute... This isn't algebra..."

I actually didn't think Linear was that bad. Diff Eq's, on the other hand...

Yeah I actually ended up doing pretty well in LA even though it had a reputation for being hard. I think I had a harder time with diff equations like you.

 

[Fellro]

Subspaces were probably the tougher thing for me to deal with, Eigen values and Eigen Spaces weren't so bad... Matrices by hand... ugh. matrices by TI-84, OK!

 

[john112deere]

MathCAD is where it's at.

Congrats Roger! Good work my man.
