They are fun 😂
Honestly the most enjoyable part of Calc for me but they are a bit complicated if you don’t know derivative rules
@little pagoda I recommend you try to memorize the rules
All 21 of emm
That’s what helped me the most when I did it
21???
I know 12
the 6 trig rules, 4 log and exponent rules, and the product and quotient rules
inverse trig too
But that’s only 3 rules
Well I guess it’s 6 but I’m not counting the other 3 in that 21
@little pagoda
oh just these?
i was trynna figure out what the 21 were lol
thinking like hyperbolic functions and shit
Don’t send that to me ever again
Nah just basic ones 😂
He’s in Calc 1 he doesn’t need to know anything past those
Calc at uva 
That Calc test was nothing like the review packet 💀💀💀
Asking dumbass questions
I failed
GG UVA
real
Future hoos?
Another college trying to lower their admissions rates by praying on the hopes and emotions of teenagers
Do yall not get those from everywhere?
I get literal books from schools lol
Got 2 from UVA, 1 from U of R, got 1 from Rice
I love marketing
They all say dumb stuff
like if i wanna go there ill research you
like honestly leave me alone, I dont have the stats to get into ur school rice
Rice tracks demonstrated interest
So if you get one versus you don’t then actually it’s a good thing lol
Bro some of these schools I deadass dont even got on my list and they be emailing me and shit lol
rice sent me a fee waiver, application extension and an interview just to reject me 
ISTG
Like why
Why tf you gonna tease
If they did all that uw as prolly hella close
LOL NO
What the fuck
Tha'ts crazy
A fee waiver is like yeah they give that to people who need it
But even an eXTENSION and a non-required interview
and then they reject ur ass
nOT EVEN A WAITISTLI
wow
ye
Same thing that gonna happen to me with uva 😭
Is UVA ED out already?
Mf’s in gen chat trolling
@calm wagon finish your Lego essay
Atleast uva finally won 🙏
UVA ED won't be out intl Dec 15th
Nah
ye f unc
first time ever
coughs in tennis and basketball national championship titles
All As first quarter 🙏 let me cook UVA pls let me in
Wait nvm Calc test isn’t in yet

🤲
If I don’t get all As I can’t sell the upward trend narrative
Because there isn’t one
Wdym bro
I still don’t know why a junior is in this discord
I ain’t stressed
Except for the SAT
I can’t leave now
I need to see where u get in

Honestly
Lego essay isn’t bad
It’s not that overused in arts schools
UVA actually has a really good law school
I ain’t tryna be no lawyer
I was told to never do a lego essay
They just dont show the person it's an overused idea, doesnt matter the major
Saying you loved to piece blocks together doesnt work as an essay xD
has 0 to do with engineering xD
Legos has a lot to do with engineering lol
Legos in itself can prove problem solving abilities. Not building Lego’s like the police station that comes with a booklet. Building your own designs with legos
I built a mansion and a batcave out of legos when I was like 9. No instructions just a bunch of spare legos from over the years
aint no body doing that shit
Lol that’s all I ever did
We couldn’t afford new sets but damn do we have a fuck ton of random legos
I still have it in my closet
lol
My dad got into legos for like 3 days
he bought so many random legos
I've never perosnally had legos tho so idk ab how they connect to engineering just
problem solving is only 1 part and thats a part of every stem major
not just engineering
I mean if we're going to take class difficulty into account and look at grades comparatively to course level of difficulty
Then don't a lot of us have like an amazing upward trend bc a A in Applied Calculus II is worth much more than an A in Art IV

Imagine having more math than just ap calc :Skufl
I took AP Calc BC
Ahem.
Ok well you’re not me
If worse comes to worse
I’m going to vcu or gmu
Ur going to UVA VT or W&M if you ditch the Lego essay
Bro what
@velvet minnow @hard ridge You hear this kid?? 😭😭
I’m telling u facts mf
AND ITS NOT FUCKING HELPING
lol
What about minding your own fucking business
average subpar junior statement
If ur using it to tell a greater@story bout urself sure but like hey I liked building shi wit legos so now I engineer won’t work
If you are using legos to build upon your value/attributes of creativity, design, and problem solving skills (or other skills)
Then go for it
^
I wouldn't necessarily write one only about legos lol
Depends on how good of essay writer u are
^
U just run the risk of being generic
You've gotta use it as more of a supporting detail to build upon a greater story/skill
shouldn't you be focusing on getting your C- average up to an A
I have all As rn
U should focus on getting over the MIT delusion
Bro thinks I can’t get into UVA
Incorrect. This "bro" believes you cannot get into a community college
I’ll try again
I don't understand how you have to APPLY
for DE classes
Like I didn't have to APPLY I just guess they let me in idfk
yuh here too
Ur school has 10 students
And over 2k here
There would probably be a class (25) of DE CS spots and up to 40 applying
Prob less than 40 since some of the AP cs kids are seniors rn
Would be really awkward if someone else from the same school as me found me here
It owuld be lol
I wonder if anyone from my high school is here
I think it would be pretty obvious
Anyone else who's complaining that their town only has ~4k people
There’s only 45 people currently following the thread
0 chance for u
Slight chance for me
I bet 80% are tryhard mf’s from NOVA
?
what do you even need for a somewhat decent chance oos uva
Are you in-state?
oos
I’m at 1540, top 10% class but weaker ecs
That's just off the top of my head I don't know how they determine OOS versus In State
mostly cause my sport takes up 90% of my time
A sport can be a good EC
whats ur courseload look like?
12 aps + a few DE
TELEVE?
Yeah (counting senior year tho so like 9 till junior)
I took 18 lol
Wow
That's really awesome!
Good grades in those courses?
I got one B but that’s abt it
well that’s good to hear
What state you live in?
I’ve put in enough time into my sport where I’m fairly good but just under what I need to be recruited
Oh yah for sure
just that I want to apply some oos cause why not
Yeah
I think UVA is on the expensive side for oos ppl
But I’d like to see what I can get
UVA is pretty expensive but they give good financial aid
Are you a high income household? @hearty patrol
At a certain threshold it doens't really matter in stare or oos you are going to get a lot of financial aid
You could ask your counselors
let’s just say they aren’t the best with information
they told me and my friends 5 different things when we asked for grading scale
we all have the same one
Like when self reporting on common app
no i know what a grading scale is
I'm just confused how you can get told 4 different grading scales
It's the same for the entire school

like one of us was told 1-100, 4.0 scale, A-F
like that
idk how they mixed it up so much
sometimes counselors are the incorrect people for the job
I remember I met my counselor junior year and they told me uncc (a safety instate) was a high target when I they knew my sat and other stats
and that unc was nearly impossible
That someone from ur school is here
well damn atleast u guys have a college counselor
our counselors in school are basically therapists for mental health
Same lmao
school counselor*
Yeah
at least they’re useful in some way
my counselor finished my rec letter yesterday (I added on common app in August and said my app deadline was oct 15th)
💀

write ur lego essay first
goofy ahh lego essay
Cook
Another day another failed APUSH test
Study harder
cc gon reject u
😂
West Virginia
Mountain mama

(i64 from Richmond to Charlottesville)
Richmond my love
W
only applying to uva cos i like that song ong
@hard ridge I’m coming to tour uva 💪
what day
November 8th
Help 🙏
How do I write a logical or
Or logical and
It’s not working
You are using a logical AND operator
|| is or
so
if(temperature>= 80 || raining == false)
{
code
}
Also it should be noted that in your else if statement @calm wagon
You are saying raining=false
= Actually SETS a value
== is used as the logical EQUAL TO operator
Wait but when I write the two ampersands
Or the two vertical lines
It still comes out wrong

Ugliest code I’ve even seen
Focus on getting through your junior year first buddy
raining ==
make sure its ==
Though, I'm just pointing out errors in your code You'd ahve to explain to me what you want to happen for me to be able to actually fix it
It’s the comment at the bottom basically
I’m trying to write an if statement for if it’s sunny OR if the temperature is greater than 80 and it’s not raining, “go to the beach!”
Word if u want I can come say hi or sumn
Bro thinks it’s hard
All you do is talk shit half the time or act entitled
Like please just calm down dude
Junior year is different for everyone
So can we stop fucking judging and assuming j cause it’s easy for you means it’s easy as a whole?
@calm wagon
Works for me
THAT IS WHAT IT IS ASKING YOU TO DO. @calm wagon
If its sunny OR its greater than 80 AND its not raining then you go to the beach
Just a singular if statement
Oh 
Yah lol
I didn't see that orange comment bc of the picture lighting
I was confused why you were asking about the OR operator, but complaining that the AND operator wasn't working and you were only using it

False
Ok well putting me down is also an option
wrote one of my supps on pho what is this 😭😭







troi oi
Over exagerrated
the food isn't THAT bad
I've been to OHill they've got some bangers
They have good burrito bowls
and the mac n cheese is fire
But if you don't want OHill there is a Chick Fil A on campus, a Ben & Jerry's (for icecream), Subway, used to be a Five Guys don't know if there is anymore
Then there's BODOS, there's Raisin Cane's there is chipotle
Oh shut
They got all that?
😭😭
LMFAOO
Nevermind
Im chillin if I go to uva
Love chipotle
Chick fil a is nice
Raising canes is p good from wayhat I hear
I don’t got money to eat fast food everyday 💀
submitted uva nerds 🙏
If u get in I’m copying u
Good luck
💀
I’m a junior lil bro
for the future
Ty
leave this server bruh
waitlisted for CAS students is actually fire
they just ship your ass off to wise for a year and let you come to cville if you have a 3.0 there
💀
A bit rude don’t u think
or be like me and get off the wl
¯_(ツ)_/¯
@hard ridge is just that cracked bro
they knew he was so good that he could beat anyone so they just put him on the waitlist to wait for one of the lessers to drop so they could put him in
bros so cracked they had to test him
ferpa
bro when if i clutch the transfer up i definitely am gonna see why they rejected my ass
its gonna be smth small i. bet
They look childish on a college essay lil bro
U can make it work tho🙏
Any way to get a fee wavier for uva
Cook
imma try too 😬😬
gl
everyone’s getting it
ez
me 2
silly sheep slowly realizing he's got competition 
Good thing I got no competition 🙏
You’re a junior
AAAHHHHH
And you’re a senior
please format your code it is very important 🙏
Bro pls calm down 💀 you're not special
Cook
Who? What 😭
(that part was for gamingbyop)
Your point?? 😭
LMAO
Wdym
It’s a joke
Ofc I know I got competition
It gets harder every single year
No I got no competition cuz I ain't applying to uva
por que no
Oh I wasn’t trying I was just tryna show him the solution lol
nah i already knew 💀
im basically already in for uva
they already sent me the student and finaid log in 🦾
FUCK dude
FUCK
I FORGOT
TO GO TO THE W&M meeting at my school

I’m at the vcu one though 
They don’t track DI
Wtf is the difference between McIntire and Darden
I just found out about Darden
People online saying McIntire is for undergrad but it also has a Masters in Commerce
Darden doesnt have undergrad
I’d assume diff schools offer diff masters programs?
When does UVA EA COME OUT
But what’s the difference, they are both business schools
The difference is the programs they offer
@little pagoda don’t be skulling my posts my grade only dropped to a 94 for this quarter lil bro
Then what u yapping about 💀
Idk it hurts my ego
Yeah that’s what I’m trying to figure out
94 is bad news
Bro

You like the class rank #1 kid at my school that is stalking every single smart mfs grades
Bro was begging me for my Calc test score
He’s probably reading this
Fight me in school tomorrow mf
Bro
Except I’m a year ahead of every person in my school in math
So I’ve r never had to worry

Nah he’s in Calc ab with me
Didn’t take BC for some reason
Prob cause my school don’t got multi var
He honestly my op fr
His ego is radiation
I guarantee you would still be valedictorian even if u got alls Bs 💀
Okay wait off topic
But doesn’t anyone know
What this whole agenda is
For like vcu saying if u apply by 11/1 you get something abt merit based scholarships
Is it only if I apply by 11/1? Like is that the whole deal
It’s either I apply by 11/1 for a chance at merit scholarships and if not then none at all or no?
Cause I’m confused
No VCU thread? I’ve got no idea
🙁
No it says sometbjng like “vcu considers all outstanding first year applicants for university level scholarships if you apply for the fall semester by nov 1”
And apparently it says the same thing for uva
Tbf I don’t know that’s what my mom said
Cause she got a form
But I’m asking about vcu if anyone knows 😭
Wut u talking about UVA
I don’t know atp
All I know
I got a piece of paper
Paper had somewhat important m information on it about applying
Mom talked about applying by 11/1 for scholarship?
And that’s end of that
UVA doesn’t even give out merit scholarships bro
Then I think I’m getting confused
It was probably just the vcu one my mom talked about or whatever
Isn’t the Jefferson scholarship one
That’s not administered by UVA
and that deadline is December 1st
I Hope
UVA gives financial need-based scholarships AFAIK
They may have like a presidential scholarship or something
yes
they meet 100% need even for oos which is kinda insane
idk pre much use ivy methodology
personally got blessed
uvas endowement is pretty massive too
What is that
3:30 am SAT practice 💀💀💀
Is gamingbyop finished
Low key can’t do shit without the calculator
Thanks for reminding me 🙏
I gotta do that soon
This 1060 score not doing me well LMAOOO
1060
Yes
Take the dsat
Test optional mf
Already signed up November sat
What
No I know byop i might just end up going test optional
But I’m gonna grind
Like you
cook
the first few points are easy to get up
i was improving like 30-50 the first few days
ngl 1060 is crazy tho 💀
first test i took with no practice i got 1330
I am finally starting to not hate byop
Wdym
A 1060
They give you 400 on each section for putting your name on it or some shit
Nuh uh
i went from 1330 to 1360 to 1410 in 2 days
Yeah tbh my first was 1210
Ur telling me you only got 260 points
200 per section lol
My first SAT no study was 1450
stupid @velvet minnow
oh 200 ok
Nerd
we didnt ask
Don’t worry I’m still failure
I took my first freshman year man
I’m applying for accommodations this time around though

Ok
I’m getting extra time on the sat
Nerds smh
But I had already taken algebra and stuff so
Not relatable
I’ve gotten accommodations on my ib exams as well
I should be chilling for my ap exam then too
How do you get accommodations
Oh
I’ve been doing the sat w no accommodations like yes I’m probably stupid still, but I just need extra time
Dude
how do i get it
bro cant read
I got to like question 30 before time running out
For the grammar one I got 20 questions in
u have to skip questins that u dont know the answer to mf
Do you get extra time on each section or just at the end
and come back
Each section
how
Learning disorder
damn

It’s not even a crutch either
U guys might think it’s like a crutch, but for me it helps really well
Bc it puts me on an even playing field
thats fine
With the non-learning disorder accomdating people
they better not be handing out extra time to everybody tho
its a whole different test if you have more time
No yea it seems pretty easy to get one tbf
Gotta be diagnosed
Also for ur math section or just studying in general have u just been using khan academy @little pagoda @velvet minnow
Yes and do you it through khan academy
yeah
Or outside resources as well
ill look up videos too
i bought a princeton review book but i dont got time to read it 💀
Like don’t fake having a learning disability cause then it’s gonna make it harder for ppl like me who actually have them to get them
Slide me it
the extra practice tests it gives are useful tho
find my house
Ok wait

new threads

@fallen cairn
UNC chapel hill should be tied with uva
nah its 22
Some bs

mr. jefferon's university would never stoop down so low as to pay for a ranking
i know duke paid for 7th
nah duke pretty good
jhu and northwestern paid for 9th
cornell for 12th
cornell tied with columbia
be fr
yes bro
NORTHWESTERN ABOVE COLUMBIA?
just some random bs
no
Columbia had some scandal a couple years ago which made them drop hella so now they climbing back up
Any Virginia kids using any college consultants?
My dad told me to find one 💀
He thinks McIntire isn’t good enough 😭
The business school?
Business school is Darden
I mesnt commerce sorry
A2C

Actual picture of @little pagoda after getting rejected from all his colleges
Technically I’ve got a 4.0 gpa at CC already
Bro wtf
Why are you so mean now byop
I always gotta hate on the Lego essay
go write ur lego essay bro
Im chillin
Gaming is that one junior who thought he was going to be the valedictorian but realized he was bad
Aren’t you a hater too
Wait no
You’re not a hater
You’re chill
Change of plans
Not gonna work on uva application
Gonna shift my focus
It’s fucking finished dude
Why are you so rude
Bro I was never aiming for valedictorian
I’m aiming for Harvard 💪
bro im not being rude
im trying to get u to perfect it and finish it
so u can get admitted to UVA
im encouraging u
yes
I suck at understanding shit
Speaking of that
Imma go work on my commonapp 💪
Not applying ed or ea! Just regular decision!
Meanie
i sorry
I don’t know if that’s u being sarcastic
Or if ur being real
if we apply EA can we score send sat scores after nov 1
or am i
royally screwed
shouldve sent my scores earlier god fucing damnit
You dont need to send scores unless you get in so they can tell you werent lying
What if I put down 1550 knowing I’ll get 1550+ in spring
Don’t colleges like risk takers
when is the official high school transcript due?
i’m so scared, i’ve made a lot of changes to my transcript and it hasn’t updated yet
Idk if i can get my transcript in by November 1st
I spoke to admissions about sending my cc transcript and they said it’s fine if you submit it before 11/8 iirc
oh ok, would you also happen to know about the secondary school report?
can someone look over my uva essay response pls 😍
Respond to what
when u submitting the lego essay
For uva?
yes
I don’t trust myself to think that it’s good enough
I might end up doing it after this first wave of applications are in like for regular decision @mortal vortex 🥲
🤓 🤓
I’m submitting VCU one though w my lego essay 
to the source of strength question i jsut feel like my essay is not strong and i also can’t cut it down 😹😹
yes
Did you think I was oos 😭
What do you mean??
I’m writing my lego essay and I’m gonna make it the best I can to my ability
W
is it good
Isn’t like cracked, but it made me top 30%
Which essay is that?
hmm
Ok listen and that’s my weighted too
I know
Okay
Don’t gotta tell me
But
I found my grading scale
And I’m doing ib, ap csa, and calc ab
If I can end the year with an average of atleast an A- in my ap and ib classes my weighted will barely be above a 4
@mortal vortex
So
I can end the year
With a 4.001 something weighted gpa 
Dawg that makes you like top 25% or something
But I guess so
damn
sure
if it makes u feel better i was 200/600 but i was only one out of t10 that got in
did everyone do the optional essay?
i'm completely done with my app but i'm too nervous to hit submit bc i haven't done the historical connection essay
i'm not a legacy or descendant or anything so i figured i shouldn't do it but i read somewhere that you should treat it as a why uva essay but idk if i believe that
help a girl out cuz if not i'm just gonna submit it now 😗
tysm can i dm u a copy of it?
i didn’t do it lmao i don’t rlly have any connection
Ye
