UnderTheNorthernScar
08.22.13 | yep Calc it is |
Trebor.
08.22.13 | If you're in 11th grade and only in geometry I feel bad for you son
Unless your school does algebra II and then geometry |
DocSportello
08.22.13 | So what you're saying is all your classes are your favorite.
That's good.
Hey Trebor. |
jdennis31
08.22.13 | werd, i was done with all my math credits by the 8th grade. i don't remember anything. don't believe your math teacher, that shit is mostly useless. |
TheSpaceMan
08.22.13 | Don't listen to jdennis31, believe your math teachers |
jdennis31
08.22.13 | i mean unless you're gonna be an engineer or something like that. |

Wow, NYS high schools suck dicks. :[ |
TheSpaceMan
08.22.13 | Math is the only thing that makes sense in this world |
jdennis31
08.22.13 | yea sure, agreed, but tell us how you've been applying the things you learned in hs math to your daily life. |

TheSpaceMan
08.22.13 | I set up proportions all the time to figure out how much gas I need to go places if I know the
distance, since I generally get a consistent mileage |
jdennis31
08.22.13 | I'm not talking about simple math like that. I mean, how do you apply the quadratic formula to your daily life? |
slep
08.22.13 | Recess! |
TheSpaceMan
08.22.13 | Quadratic formula is used to find a number in a quadratic equation, obviously its use is gonna be
situational. I use "complicated" math like calculus all the time when helping my buddy out with his
landscaping job |
jdennis31
08.22.13 | I actually looked it up and the quadratic formula has a lot of value to a lot of professions. I still stand by my statement though. Most of what you learn in HS math will be forgotten, or wil be unnecessary. |
TheSpaceMan
08.22.13 | Yeah I'm not denying that half the shit you learn in HS is useless depending on what you plan to do,
but math teachers couldn't really lie to you. Maths like the only subject where you know that what
they tell you is correct because you see for yourself how it works. You can't argue against y = .6x +
7 being a straight line when graphed if your math teacher has access to a whiteboard, but all of the
chemistry your teacher taught you could be bullshit and we could be made of potatoes until you
actually get a electron-microscope and rediscover the atom yourself. I dunno just my 2 cents |
MrElmo
08.22.13 | Stopped Math for Art School, gave up during high school because of a bad teacher and especially because it was logical and made sense. |
TheSpaceMan
08.22.13 | yeah do what works for you, getting As doesnt bring home bacon contrary to what those assholes in public education like to make you think. its all just a scam to condition people to obey orders like cattle at young age when its easy to mold a person to how you want. Without school, would people really be trying desperately to become a slave to Microsoft and doing bitch work at a desk? |
jdennis31
08.22.13 | Yea, I was serious when I agreed with you about math being the only thing that is true. I meant don't trust your teachers about everything you learn being applied to real life. Dunno if that same line is still being repeated. Actually thinking about it though, math is great for cognitive enhancement, so it is probably beneficial even if you forget everything you learn. |
joomisy
08.22.13 | Ugh, i'm so glad I took Chemistry last year. Class was bullshit
How on earth could you possibly like Chemistry? |
TheSpaceMan
08.22.13 | Chemistry sucks agreed, Physics is the only science I can "get"
And yeah maths a great brain exercise, I love how when you hand in a math test you either know you passed or failed, unlike say a US history exam on war dates. Fuck I hate school haha |
jdennis31
08.22.13 | Yea. I feel like things like logic and finances should be more of a focus than US history. The only type of finance class we had was senior transitions -_- Critical thinking is stressed pretty heavily in DODDS schools though, so that's a good step in the right direction. |
ChuckyTruant
08.22.13 | A guitar class?
Damn son |
toxin.
08.22.13 | math is life [2]

tommygun
08.22.13 | lindsey buckingham don't need no pick bro |
