oh oki
hidden heart
i can't help that much for chem unless it's easier
steep wasp
dv = x3dx
v = x4/4
du = dx/x
I = uv-vdu
=1/3[x^4 lnx / 4 - 1/4 integral of x^3 dx]
and integral of x^3 is x4/4
so it'd be
1/12 x^4 * ln x - 1/48 x^4 + C
hmm that sounds wrong
hidden heart
it's something similar
try writing everything over the same denominator
it usually helps simplify

Or rather, I think most of what we do in life is a sort of reaction to this primary Anxiety and Dread that permeates much of our action– whether we are in bliss (avoiding the necessity of facing it), creating (art, music, etc, as a catharsis that brings us some sort of revelling), or sports and exercising (temporarily relieve us of this stress)

Brown does not track demonstrated interest. So, you can go to your tennis match!

future bears not bozos😃
i guess so
its none of my business
i already go to college
tired shadow
ok cool !
they may not necessarily track your demonstrated interest but
i would go to as many info sessions as you possibly can, especially those led by regional admissions officers
one of the brown info sessions i went to only had 10 people (1 regional admissions officer and 9 prospective students) and we all had our cameras on and introduced ourselves by names
i followed up by personally emailing the regional admissions officer to thank her as well as the dean of admissions

oh dont worry
the video wont be the reason you get rejected (unless its absolutely horrible)
the video mainly helps to supplement applications that need supplementing
a good application will speak for itself, the video is a non-neccessary boosting thing
slim gull

It’ll be interesting to see what ends up happening
