[tidal rampart]

I've working part time to save money to buy a laptop

does anybody know what laptop is the best?

it would be great if you can play games on it too

[lean pebble]

id say go with a microsft laptop you can probably find one that is not too expensive but still will be decent

[tidal rampart]

how old is too old to get married?
because my sister is 27 and shes still in college, she has 2 years left before she graduate
my family has never thought of getting her married
and she has no interest in getting a bf (shes straight ps)

[austere swan]

55 would be too old to get married

[mild frigate]

not really

never too late

though if you're talking about the "ideal" years to get married, i'd say 20-25ish up to 40

[mild frigate]

if she has no interest, then that's her decision

many people don't start dating until their 30s because they're focused on improving their own situation and building their own portfolio before joining with someone else

[exotic mango]

She really don’t ever have to but 27 is around the typical age for women to marry

Just because menopause starts around 40-50 so if she wants children she might want to start looking around now lol

But if she doesn’t want to marry then whatever there’s nothing you can do

[steep raft]

I can't focus, I always find a way to distract myself and I hate it. I used to take 27mg of Methylfinidate to focus but because I gained weight the dosage became ineffective and I nearly failed 9th grade. I now take a higher dose but I need a way to focus. Anything helps

[quaint plank]

honestly what worked for me was deleting social media and removing all forms of distraction (either completely removing it or by setting limits). another key fundamental would be to try and improve your discipline by simply resisting whatever temptation you have

btw i have a question, is there any recognition for skipping a grade when applying to college? what i mean by this is, do colleges really care whether you skipped a grade or not?

[tidal rampart]

skipping a grade but you get really good scores is not a bad thing

if you excel in education then most colleges will want you

[steep raft]

I think some community colleges will accept a lot of people but most colleges require you to graduate highschool

[fleet finch]

Im not sure about tutti but, ad lib (ad libitum) means that you can play the piece freely (on your on accord/interpretation)

oh clarinet tutti probably means something along the lines of your whole band playing that measure together

[exotic mango]

Tutti means whole orchestra together

Hello

Does anyone have some tips on how to take aesthetic notes

[warm edge]

according to me aesthetic notes are:
clear notes, good handwriting, evenly spaces to avoid crammed text.

Could you ellaborate your idea of aesthetic notes

[velvet field]

Clear notes, nice handwriting, not messy, not crammed and evenly spaced

Similar to wat u said

[warm edge]

do you write it physically or digitally

[velvet field]

Physically

[warm edge]

ah understood

i reccomend buying a big register, using 2 pens, black and blue, 2 highlighters to mark keywords

make sure to put your points in bullets (you can put them in para but to me i prefer bullets as they are faster to go thru)

[velvet field]

Thx

These are my notes right now for Japanese

[warm edge]

wow they look really pretty !!!

[velvet field]

Thx

It’s just my handwriting which is the problem

[warm edge]

i found a really good solution for that

do you have a printer?

[velvet field]

Yes I do

[warm edge]

write a-z and A-Z and 0-9, in the font similar to the handwriting you want

print it out as a worksheet

you may use pen or pencil whichever you may prefer

it really helped mine!

and i noticed japanese

[velvet field]

Ok I will try that, but also my Japanese writing is not very neat either

[warm edge]

you can do the !!

same*

with japanese

i found some pre written sheets and printed them

[velvet field]

Oki I’ll try, and inform you once I have done!

[warm edge]

yay best of luck!

Yo I’m a upcoming freshman

Do we got school supply lists in high school cuz I gotta go shopping soon

[fleet finch]

;-0
shopping for wut

[zealous spruce]

For supplies

[quick minnow]

What my school does is gives you just like a general list of stuff you might need, like pencils pens paper etc. Then on the first day of class each class will tell you specifics of what you need (like my bio class required a specific 3-ring binder specific)

But it’ll probably depend on your school so just keep a look out as the beginning of the school year gets closer

what degrees are required if you want to work in the gaming industry?
I want to work with games in the future
so idk what path to go
I'm afraid CS is too hard for me
because I took it once in highschool and it did not go well

so what should I do ?

[void crystal]

not sure abt america, but degrees arent necessarily "required" if u can instead show work experience and the skills, so u can start learning now thru the internet, cs is very broad and u may only use a bit of the course in the actual gaming industry
tho i do agree with the other person in #comp-sci-help, itll b really benefitial and make life as a programmer much easier if u can gt past cs

[mighty ore]

can anyone tell me which laptop does gohar use?

im trying to figure out but can't come to something

[warm edge]

easy. use chatgpt to summarise your notes. if like you can have your textsbooks pdf version, go sub topic wise, send the text and give it a prompt

its like that one kid in college who got 96 just by studying from chatgpt and ultimate focus

[velvet field]

Could I ask why?

[strange zinc]

hello! i want to learn economics on khan academy but idk if i should do macroeconomics first or microeconomics. which one should i start on first?

[snow jetty]

I'd say go with microeconomics first before learning macroeconomics. This is because with micro you get the foundation and key components. It's also easier to study than macro, so by getting the foundation and good grasp of concepts. Transitioning into the study of macroeconomics should be easier and will make sense when learning.

[snow jetty]

College Major suggestions
-Video game design
-Computer Science #stem-club can help you improve and understand concepts of CS.
-Game programing
-Animation
-Software Engineering
-Computer Engineering
-Graphic Design
-Sound Production
Working in the game development industry requires a solid knowledge in coding. I highly suggest speaking to members in #stem-club they will be super helpful. Also, this school year join tech club and speak with a STEM teacher. They can also be a strong help in getting you ready. Other resources include #comp-sci-help , friends or family members who have a coding hobby, online or in person com science tutoring, etc. If I had a grasp and a hobby for coding I'd lend you a hand. Sadly, I'm not experienced in the CS world besides I guess certain aspects in Robotics. These are the best suggestions I can personally give, but on the bright side their are plenty of experienced members in the server with CS.

Is Finance one of the best college degrees that isn't anything STEM

(There's barely any math, okay)

What school supplies should I buy for junior high school ?

[tacit hazel]

I’m not sure what junior means for us in England I think that’s year 7 start of high school but I reccomend: Multicoloured pens, pencils, geometry sets, highlighters rubbers, sharpeners, scissors glue sticks, 30cm ruler which isn’t flexible, a CASIO calculator and maybe a stapler. Colouring pencils for art

Tbh all I use is a pen, pencil with eraser protractor ruler sharpener, ruler , 1 highlighter, a compass and a calculator

Junior year is 11th grade in the us third year of high school

[tacit hazel]

Ah I see thank you. Why do they need to say junior year and stuff that just complicated everything no?

[vale kelp]

It’s more used in college since colleges use, freshman, sophomore, junior, senior, and Ig high schools decided to nickname 9th-12th graders like that or something

[tacit hazel]

Oh wow

[humble sandal]

I have a habit of bringing too much stationary

What should I do?

[lucid kestrel]

maybe try setting a limit for yourself for how many things to bring?

i have 3-4 pens, 2-3 pencils, a highlighter, an eraser, a calculator, a ruler and correction tape in my pencil case if that helps

you really just need the necessities for each subject, no use bringing 5 different shades of pen or a whole set of coloured pencils

[exotic mango]

I have…a pencil

sometimes not even that

and then I have to borrow one

[lucid kestrel]

we've all been there lmao

i have way too many friends like that

[exotic mango]

yeah—

[lucid kestrel]

that's why i keep so many pens

[exotic mango]

I wish my notes were pretty but honestly at one point my only goal is to get down everything lol

[lucid kestrel]

yeahh i can relate

honestly my notes don't look pretty either, the highlighter is just to write in my books

[humble sandal]

I guess I'm too influenced from all these studytubers using a ton of stationary

But thanks for the numbers for the reference @lucid kestrel

Oh, can we change stationary often?

Like, bring 3 different pens each day?

[errant patio]

any advice for Questbridge? Like what should I expect and what should I look out for

[spice vessel]

i would say its fine as long as when ur done u put it back so ur not distacted with all that stuff on your desk

like keep it in a case or ur backpack

and only keep like 3 things out at a time

ex pen, white out, highligher

and then you can switch out them in ur backpack

[humble sandal]

I use a pencil case, would make this thing easier

[humble sandal]

Omg same

[humble sandal]

Alright!

Thanks for the tips everyone

[void crystal]

may i ask y u want to stop it? jus curious

[humble sandal]

1 - Too much weight
2 - Too embarrassing as everyone's pencil cases consist of few things
3 - Would make the process of notetaking faster- I waste a lot of time picking colors and shit 💀

[humble sandal]

There are more than one variation of the curse?

[exotic mango]

Well I have no clue what you’re talking about

so im just throwing out guesses lol

[humble sandal]

Though I like the advice of taking a really hard class to challenge myself

[exotic mango]

Yeah

See I was a “gifted kid” and I realized that I would rather have to learn how to study now than in college

So I like maxed out my schedule and died but hey now I know

[humble sandal]

Ooh

Well I just have a fear of complex things because I see it as a threat to my gifted kid status

And I have an inflated ego

Any advice for that?

[exotic mango]

You’re going to fail at some point

I think you’d rather have it now than later

[humble sandal]

Elaborate

[exotic mango]

If you fail in high school then who cares

But if you’re planning on going to grad school, college matters a loooot

[humble sandal]

Oh

I'm planning to work in academia, sooo

Alright!

Thank you so much

[fleet finch]

For flavours such as like cinnamon or glazed bagels, maybe something more acidic to balance it out
There is also the option.of doing jams and flavoured water (still or carbonated).
There is also the option of themes where you can go for like "back to school" with peanut butter and jam type thing with some apple juice.
And finally you can use the theme "Friday night" with again, using glazed bagels and lemon lime bitters

turn the dial clockwise 3 times until it reaches the first number, then turn it one full time counterclockwise passing the first number and landing on the second. finally turn it clockwise until you reach the last number

to reset it just spin it counterclockwise 3 times and start the process over

[lapis kelp]

Weird request but I need gift ideas…a friend of mine is going to college and her birthday is soon. I want to get her something for her dorm but i feel like it’s weird if I get her comforter sets for a birthday gift. Any ideas??

[old spoke]

[lapis kelp]

Thanks!

[magic folio]

thanks alot

its right

that's the right answer

I just didn't get the process so thanks

[modest cave]

what do you do when you have a teacher that doesnt teach you and doesnt give you resources to learn?

[ruby ginkgo]

have you or someone else talk to the teacher, and if they continue to not teach , talk to the next higher person etc.

im sorry you gotta deal with that, my 6th grade science teacher didnt teach at all and i wasnt brave enough to speak up about it

[modest cave]

yeah we all went to the dean of students and they did nothing

saur

idk if people have talked to the principal

but i vocally complained a lot about the teacher (professionally, ofc) to higher ups and they didnt do much about it, and i even talked to the counselor about it

and apparently the counselor's great solution was to put me in her class again

so ill have to see next semester

but maybe shes improved over summer, if not, ill prob have to go to principal

[ruby ginkgo]

damn😭 thats some bs, if she teaches a specific class like (trigonometry) you can just ask people for resources and stuff like that to learn it on your own.

that counselor needs to be reported too , aint no way they just ignored your complaint💀

[pure solar]

what does misc mean?

[ruby ginkgo]

miscellaneous, so basically you can ask anything here

[pure solar]

ah thanks

[ruby ginkgo]

npp!

[mint oar]

What’s the gym routine

[severe scaffold]

What are some recommended school supplies for freshmen going to Highschool and recommend things to do in school like clubs, activities, etc

[vivid umbra]

Get folders to organize ur stuff

And lots of loose leaf paper

[ruby ginkgo]

at least one notebook, pen/pencil. If you’re school is mostly digital then don’t worry about all the notebooks and stuff. I’d get a folder or smthn in case a teacher hands out something in paper form.

as for clubs, do anything you want. I mean it you could do chess club, participate in a sport, volunteer somewhere.
if you want to get ahead tho, research some stuff that might be useful for your future career if you’ve decided stuff

[vivid umbra]

If ur taking science courses (especially AP Science Courses) have a composition notebook with you to take and keep track of lab notes.

[ruby ginkgo]

i didnt think of that, my teachers never did labs 💀

[sage hamlet]

Is there any chance to increase my gpa in junior year other that studying etc

[random sigil]

tutoring

hand in ur assignments on time aswell

[vivid umbra]

On the official collegeboard website it says keep track of the labs u do cuz universites might wanna look at it.

[trail sentinel]

yo I need help with doing some research on climate change

[jaunty juniper]

Bro what are these classes?! PE zero period

[wispy tiger]

think that means before your classes start

[jaunty juniper]

Hell no imma join a sport no 8 am pe

[wheat lance]

i despise pe, so i never attend it
i much prefer doing my own workouts when i'm back home than that

[jaunty juniper]

I’m probably gonna run track or smth

[wispy tiger]

yeah ask to get it changed 8am is a h u g e no

[wheat lance]

you guys can get it changed???

[jaunty juniper]

School hasn’t started yet so hopefully I can get it changed I also want bio H bc I had science and history gate pre ap in middle school

[cedar bane]

[jaunty juniper]

[ruby ginkgo]

depends really, both are hard. Personally small group communication is harder because i feel like im being listened to more attentively.

where as large groups i know most people probably dont care what i have to say 🤷‍♀️

how to get taller im 14
my father 5 9
mother 5 0
me 5 2

what to do

i just wanna be atleast 5 8
thats tall for my country

[warm junco]

your dads 5 9

so you will def be 6

or around 5 11

[void crystal]

u still have a bunch more years to go

there's often a 2nd growth spurt in ur late teens, but it pretty much just depends on genetics

[proud tusk]

Can someone help me write an email to my counselor

For context I emailed him about me wanting to change electives. he wrote back with a copy & paste sounding email so I wanted to write a follow up one saying that I still wanted to switch electives while sounding assertive and polite.

How can I start it?

[void crystal]

u approach that manz face to face, maybe

[void crystal]

Hi Sir, I considered your advise and am very grateful, however I still believe it is in my best interest to switch electives, may you please guide me through the process?

smth liek that, but i think being grateful and acknowledging their response is an important key to maintain friendliness while still forwarding ur uhhh disagreement

[wheat lance]

that is not how it works bro

if one parent is tall, the other is short, there is also a very large chance they end end up in the 5'5-5'8 range

you don't just get super tall because one parent is tall, it is possible yes but it's not the standard

[lilac plinth]

Did it

[fleet finch]

Yo, what is a GPA and how does it work? Like how do you measure your GPA or whatever?

[steel jewel]

It depends school to school but unweighted gpas are calculated using every class grade. Idk the exact formula though

[fleet finch]

What are unweighted GPAs?

[steel jewel]

Meaning like gpas that don't differ from school to school

Gpas that are weighted are different from school to school, like one gpa may be out of 100 and another may be out of 4

Unweighted gas are always out of 4

[fleet finch]

Oh my school runs on 4.0 GPAs i believe.

[steel jewel]

Then your weighted and Unweighted would be the same

[fleet finch]

Oh, so how do you measure them though?

[steel jewel]

That's the part that idrk

Lemme check

Ok

I got it

There are also a bunch of calculators online

[fleet finch]

So what would my GPA be if i had a C in all my classes?

[steel jewel]

You have to put in the exact number

Actually nvm

Lemme do that for you

Just a sec

How many classes?

[fleet finch]

Um i have English, Spanish, PE, Science, Lunch, Drama and Algebra on my school schedule.

[steel jewel]

Ok so are pe and drama .5 credits ?

How many periods?

I put in 7 and got a 2.0 gpa

I think all Cs just correspond to a 2

[fleet finch]

Yeah C=2 and I have 6 Periods ig? Not including Lunch

[steel jewel]

Yeah

So you have around a 2.0

Which I personally would work on but I'm not you sooo

[fleet finch]

Is that bad?

[steel jewel]

Yeah

I believe a good GPA should be a 3 or above

[fleet finch]

Oh but wouldnt it still be a passing grade if i had a C in all my classes?

[steel jewel]

My GPA in 9th grade was a 4/4 but I wanna do ivy

It all comes downt to what college you wanna get into

[fleet finch]

I thought D - F was failing.

[steel jewel]

C is passing

But barely

• colleges want bs and as

[fleet finch]

Ohh. What if you wanna go to a fancy college like Harvard? What GPA is recommened?

[steel jewel]

4/4

Like me

All A+

[fleet finch]

What about a community college?

[steel jewel]

Maybe a 2 but likely a 2.5

I've never thought about doing cc so idrk

[fleet finch]

Oh wow, i really am a dumbass lol.

[steel jewel]

Just work on your grades

You'll be fine

[fleet finch]

Yeah, cause my fam wants me to become a Lawyer sooo

[steel jewel]

I would recommend at least a 3.2 for an avg to good university

And a 3.8 for a really good university

[steel jewel]

Aim for a 3. At least

[fleet finch]

So what if i had a B in all my classes? What would be my GPA? A 3.0?

[steel jewel]

A 2.0-3.0 gpa won't take you far

3.0

Yeah

[fleet finch]

And then an A in all my Classes would be a 4.0

[steel jewel]

But I would recommend some As mixed in

For a good college

[fleet finch]

What if i had Bs in three classes and As in three other classes? What would be my GPA?

Would it be like 3.5?

Or 3.4 - 3.6?

[steel jewel]

Around yeah

That would be good for a lawyer profession

[fleet finch]

Oh alright, thanks for clarifying! This helped a lot, thank you! :D

[steel jewel]

Np!

[mortal lynx]

i wanna reach my max height potential. my dad:5'7, my mom: 5'0, me: 5'2 at 14. i workout in my gym and do plan on playing lacrosse, running, some bball, and maybe football. is there anything else i shuld do?

If I got a 1390 on the psat 8/9 in 8th grade, do you think I should take it again in 9th?

[steel jewel]

It's up to you tbh. If you want to improve and see where you are rn, then go for it. It's not necessary

But maybe take it in 11th before the SAT so that you can try to get National Merrit

[cedar verge]

school supplies reccomendations?

[hushed igloo]

I’m going to a freshman orientation tomorrow where there is a “club walk”? (Little booths to promote each of the clubs) I’m a sophomore who has to convince the freshmen to join the club I’m in.

Has anyone done something similar to this and do you have any advice? :0

I lack social skills

[rich stream]

QUIT THE CLUB

[hushed igloo]

Why-

I want to do this

[rich stream]

oh... i thought the school made you

my school made me do it

[hushed igloo]

Awh that’s awful-

[hushed igloo]

People tend to be nice to me so I enjoy it :)

[rich stream]

the freshmans made fun of me while i had social anxiety

[hushed igloo]

I’m sorry that happened to you

I have social anxiety too but I think people just find it endearing?

[steel jewel]

I have but haven't. Once there was an electives fair and my CS teacher wanted us to come by the stall to promote it. I went for a couple minutes and promoted the stall. In that, I was just nice and gave good answers relevant to the person asking. I also have a friend who partook in the culture fair in which they had to represent their ethnicities. He did the same thing that I did at the CS stall, so it should work.

[hushed igloo]

Oh? I actually never thought about people asking questions. I just sort of go- “Hey, would you be interesting in joining [blank]? We do [blah blah blah] If you’d like to learn more, here is this flyer.”

[steel jewel]

Yeah look into that

[hushed igloo]

Look into what, sorry? :0

[steel jewel]

Answering questions lol

[hushed igloo]

Ahhh-

In the past people usually just say yes or no, I may be doing something wrong 😅

[soft salmon]

Hi, I would like to fit 30-45mins of exercise into my daily life but I seem to have problems finding the right time. My classes start at 8 so I wake up at 630. Additionally, my classes end at around 430~5 every day (7 on Tuesdays) and I reach home at around 6-630 (8 on Tuesdays). I was thinking right after a reach home but then I feel like I would be too tired to continue working before I go to bed. I was thinking of right before going to bed but I usually continue working right upto I go to bed so I can't really fit time in there. So I was wondering when I should fit the time to do exercise. Please give me suggestions on what I should do and any tips from doing the same thing yourselves. Thank you!

[boreal river]

Can anyone help me see the strengths and weakness of my response

I have to do it for religion class but I need someone to see it

here is the text

Text sample ``Why should people of the Catholic faith care about the issue of Homelessness. The Bible says to care for those around you like you would like to be treated, The Golden Rule Jesus talked about this alot while he lived on Earth with us and gave us some examples of them. One Instances of Jesus preaching the Golden Rule is the Good Samaritan where he tells a story about a man who was left half dead on the street and was abandoned by three other people until someone, who was apart of a culture that hated him, helped him, fed him, and give him a roof, all for free, out of the love in his heart for all. The teaching in this story was that you can help anyone no matter who they are or what their status is, this is the Golden Rule.

How can people of the Catholic faith respond or stop the Issue of Homelessness.Catholics have a number of ways to help stop the issue of Homelessness. Like starting charities or donating to Charities (that are catholic).There are many catholic charities out there like Caritas Australia, St Vincent De Paul Society, Opus Dei and much more. Donating to charities is not the only way to help solve the problem of homelessness, like volunteering for shelters or starting a fundraiser.There are many ways to help solve homelessness even if you aren’t Catholic, so what's stopping you? `

[azure spoke]

your response is pretty complete

what i would change is... only by donating catholic charities would you really help stop the issue of homelessness?

i really believe we shouldn't mind those details as long as you are helping someone

overall, your explanations and examples are great, defending successfully your position

[random sigil]

fit your exercise in the morning, how long does it take you to get to school>

plus exercising in the morning is proved to make u more motivated, productive, refreshed and optimistic. it helps u burn stored fat cuz u havent eaten anything yet probs

[random sigil]

im a girl but i grew from 5'2 to 5'6 in like a year. !!!eat dairy!!!(but not too much, just make sure to get to the recommended servings) !!! and manage your diet. be active in sports and stretch. if u have a pull up bar, just like dangle on it for a while and for some reason wearing shoes with platform made me taller like deadass but idk (like it made my legs longer or something)

[snow wagon]

that's the psat (aka NMSQT), not psat 8/9

[steel jewel]

Yeah. I thought you were talking about it overall

Sorry

Yeah then don't take it again unless you really want to

[mild frigate]

those huge folders with a lot of dividers in them

it's so much more efficient than binders

[slender terrace]

How manageable is my schedule who is a sophomore and plays one sport

[neat olive]

Is it fine if I skip AP calc AB and go straight to BC?

[mild frigate]

i think this is very manageable

learn how to allocate time wisely and you will be fine

i play hockey (for fun), speed skating (competitively), and swimming (for my job as a lifeguard)

[slender terrace]

How should i study for ap chem and ap world

Those are my first two ap classes

[mild frigate]

for ap chem, do a ton of practice questions and make careful notes of classes

there's tons of good resources such as khan academy and the past frq page on collegeboard that you should take advantage of

ap chem is one of the hardest classes but if you've taken a chem course before it, then you

will be alright

i've never taken apwh so i can't say anything about it

[slender terrace]

I got an A+ in honors chem freshman year + its the same teacher and shes amazing

[mild frigate]

that's awsome then

you'll do amazing in the course, good luck

practice some concepts or at least look over them a little before the course starts

from your honours chem course

[slender terrace]

Ok thanks‼️

Will do fs

[lyric obsidian]

does anyone know AP psych

[mild frigate]

yes, what about it

[stiff rune]

I'm in 8th grade got eney tips?

Pls

[steel jewel]

It's possible

@narrow oak is doing it

And I may self study

[narrow oak]

see my school doesn't make you do both AB and BC, it's either one

BC only has 2 more units than AC though

[neat olive]

so they are similar just more concepts in BC and faster pace?

[narrow oak]

yeah

[neat olive]

o ok 😄 thx

[narrow oak]

yep, no problem

[narrow oak]

some schools do it differently though

[vivid umbra]

Am taking both AB and BC

And I plan on self studying AP Human Geo and possibly AP Italian or Spanish Lit.

[steel jewel]

I might self study BC

As it only is 2 more units

[narrow oak]

https://blog.collegeboard.org/difference-between-ap-calculus-ab-and-bc

All topics in the eight units of AP Calculus AB are also included in AP Calculus BC. However, AP Calculus BC contains two additional units (Units 9 and 10), plus some extra topics in Units 6─8.

These topics are only taught in AP Calculus BC:

• Additional techniques of integration (Unit 6)
• Euler's method and logistic models with differential equations (Unit 7)
• Arc length and distance traveled along a smooth curve (Unit 8)
• Parametric equations, polar coordinates, and vector-valued functions (Unit 9)
• Infinite sequences and series (Unit 10)

My morning is tight as I leave at 7.

[steel jewel]

What why?

[sharp rock]

Heyy im asking for a little help because im about to enter grade 10 and im wondering if i can still take AP programs in my school and i question if i can still get into top colleges with 3 years left to pick hard AP programs, and is so is that how it works too?

[steel jewel]

Yes

I'm doing that too

I didn't take APs last year cuz I wasn't allowed

I'm gonna take 3 APs in school this year

[sharp rock]

ah thats good to know

thankyouuu!

[sharp rock]

but what grade are you?

[steel jewel]

I'm going to 10th too

[lethal mantle]

what AP classes are you guys choosing?

[sharp rock]

im gonna go for Chemistry, bio chemistry, and Physics

[paper wadi]

HUHHHH?????

[sharp rock]

wbu guys? what AP classes you choosing? and like after that, what university you guys are going to?

[lethal mantle]

so my school doesn't offer AP classes and im not really familiar with the system

and so im not really sure which AP classes would be suitable and ive been trying to figure that out before school opens : )

[mild frigate]

maybe we can help provide some advice if you'd like?

I don't have AP courses at my school either (everyone self-studies and takes the exam at the regular time) so I'm pretty familiar with that if that's what you're planning on doing

[narrow oak]

#ap-exam-help message
I wanna go to MIT or an Ivy

[sharp rock]

MIT is good too

[lethal mantle]

yes, that will be great if you could!

[mild frigate]

what are you interested in pursuing post-secondary?

[lethal mantle]

comp sci or medicine i think i definitely want to do some research/lab involved stuff

[sharp rock]

another question btw how do i increase the chances of getting in a top university if the school does not offer AP programs

[lethal mantle]

i think universities take that into consideration and they understand that students come from different backgrounds

so they will look at your gpa and sat/act scores i guess

[sharp rock]

so that means i gotta tryhard for straight A's then? if thats what i need to do then i will but thats only if they dont offer AP programs but thx for the tips tho i appreciate it

[steel jewel]

I'm doing AP Calc AB, APUSH, and AP CSP. I may self study a couple others

[steel jewel]

Me too

[sharp rock]

ooh challenging but those are good choices for the career path you want to take

[lethal mantle]

same although i feel like this is pretty much everyones dream college

[steel jewel]

They take that into account. Its based on what you could have done, not what others are doing

[steel jewel]

Yeah. I wanna do engineering and cs at MIT

[steel jewel]

I have straight 97+s

And I wanna keep it that way

Cuz gpa matters too

Also make sure to do many extracurriculars

[sharp rock]

alright ill try to do those

[lethal mantle]

since freshman? thats pretty good

[steel jewel]

Yeah

I'm going to 10th

And am gonna try my best to keep that

[sharp rock]

Wow so whats the secret? I mean all of us has to hate one subject for being hard but even though you hate it how do you still do it anyways?

[lethal mantle]

is it being smart or hard working

[steel jewel]

Yeah. I have a bittersweet relationship with english but I still work hard in it

[steel jewel]

Both??

I just workhard, learn concepts and study

I stay up to date on my assignments

[lethal mantle]

ahh thats probably why you get good grades

[steel jewel]

But also keep in mind that everybody learns differently

I haven't used even a single gohar's guide study tip yet

I work just fine with my own study plan

[sharp rock]

So like a mindset then? On how you study the subject

[lethal mantle]

yea i feel like its important to find out what strategy works the best for you

[steel jewel]

Yeah a good mindset is also crucial

[sharp rock]

Well gohars feynman technique works for me

So that’s something

[steel jewel]

That's good!

[sharp rock]

But thankyou again guys i appreciate the school tips too so ty so much!

[steel jewel]

Gohars study habits are good for finding which one is best for you

[steel jewel]

Np!

Lmk if you need anything @sharp rock

You too @lethal mantle !

[narrow oak]

Lol yeah pretty much

[steel jewel]

Yep

[lethal mantle]

thanks, i appreciate that! will do : )

Hi! Does anyone have any insight or personal testimony for Oregon State University and/or Reed College?

[quiet fern]

Anyone have any tips on exams for high school I'm a sophomore and I do really good on test over a subject but when it comes to exams I do horrible anyone know how to get better

[steel jewel]

study hard
use flashcards
Make sure you understand concepts

Im a sophomore now too

These things allowed me to maintain all As

Everyone learns differently though

My tactics might not work as well for you

and vice versa

[quiet fern]

I use quizlet and study guides I always ask questions but still did bad

[steel jewel]

maybe also see how concepts connect

that also helps me

like I said

Its different for everyone

maybe experiment with new strategies

[quiet fern]

Even my teacher was surprised I did bad and what you mean concepts

[steel jewel]

like connect how different parts work

like how two math rules support each other

[proud burrow]

Start studying sooner

[echo cipher]

hiiiiiii
Me and a friend are in the starting process of creating an entirely student-run non-profit (it may end up being for-profit lmao). It’s called The Kaleido Initiative. It’s essentially a collection of ‘clubs,’ with emphasis on collaboration between them. For example, the journalism club may collaborate with the neuroscience club to publish some upcoming research in neuroscience on a medium.com blog. We’re trying to stop putting students in categories (neuroscientist, journalist), and embrace the intersectionality of all these fields. The five ‘club’ ideas that we have now are journalism, neuroscience, astrophysics, comp sci, and film. We are looking for some members interested in these subjects, or interested in making their own subject! Anyone who thinks they can help with this, please dm me or @slim lake . Thanks y’all!

actually 8:33

[steel jewel]

Bruh

[random sigil]

hahahahhahaha

[narrow oak]

Wow

Yeah schools here start around 7:30

[random sigil]

mine starts at 8:45 but when you get into senior years you start getting period 0, which sometimes can be like 7:30am

[steel jewel]

Our period 0 is optional and it's from 6:45-7:33

[narrow oak]

Period 0 lol

[steel jewel]

I didn't do 0 period this year or last year

[narrow oak]

I've never heard of that

[steel jewel]

It's like take some classes early as an extra period

[narrow oak]

Oh

[steel jewel]

To get 8 periods instead of 7

[narrow oak]

I'd definitely do that if I had the option

[steel jewel]

I didn't cuz its only some courses

Like really limited

There's like 3 courses

[narrow oak]

Oh

[faint yoke]

really my school has 0 too

What are some good ways to make money? I'm going in 9th grade and I'm trying to save money for this camp, $1000 USD

[mild frigate]

work a skilled job if you have a skill that can be put to use. skilled jobs usually pay more and fast.

for example, i skate and swim competitively so i worked as a skate instructor and lifeguard

[snow wagon]

I'm not old enough since I'm going into 9th grade

[mild frigate]

a lifeguard actually pays an insane amount of money (depending on where)

[snow wagon]

I have called at least 30 places to see if they hire, none do

[mild frigate]

if you're 13+, try mcdonalds

14+ preferably

it's a bad job but it'll make you something while you wait for the better ones

[snow wagon]

There used to be 1 mcdonalds that used to hire 14, but then there was an incident and they stopped hiring 14

[mild frigate]

oh i see

[snow wagon]

and that too a couple days before i turned 14 -_-

[mild frigate]

when is this summer camp?

next summer?

[snow wagon]

yep

[mild frigate]

what month do you turn 15

[snow wagon]

june

[mild frigate]

ah shoot.

[snow wagon]

yeah

[mild frigate]

maybe call around some private businesses around you as they're most likely looser with age restrictions

like for example, a dry cleaners place may be in need of someone to sort clothes (just an example)

[snow wagon]

I asked my neighbors if I mow their lawn last week, I have 3 people, so i make like 45 a week

[mild frigate]

oh my

[snow wagon]

for the rest of the summer

[mild frigate]

that's pretty amazing

[snow wagon]

its still gonna take like 22 weeks to get 1k, and mowing season ends in like 2 months

[mild frigate]

maybe contact a local club and ask if they're in need of a golf caddy. I remember when i went, the golf caddies were all pretty young (around 13, 14)

[snow wagon]

That sounds good, I'll look around for that. In the fall and winter I might ask to rake leaves and shovel driveways too

[mild frigate]

good plan

good luck :)

[snow wagon]

is $15 a lawn a good price for mowing?

[mild frigate]

if it's a decently sized one, yes

[snow wagon]

takes me around 35-40 min for each

[mild frigate]

ok then that's a good price

[narrow oak]

,calc 15/40

[hardy current]

Result:

0.375

[narrow oak]

37.5 cents a minute

[mild frigate]

thats acc an insane rate lmao

but then again, if you're in the sun and heat, there has to be some compensation for it

[narrow oak]

yeah

[snow wagon]

Yeah, usually mid 80's

[narrow oak]

make sure to apply sunscreen !!

[snow wagon]

yeah, I learned that the hard way

[mild frigate]

if you're a good swimmer, get your bronze cross and try lifeguarding the moment you turn 15 (the age restriction is 15 in my area, im not sure about yours though)

[narrow oak]

,calc 15/(40/60)

[hardy current]

Result:

22.5

[mild frigate]

I earn $25 per hour

CAD

[narrow oak]

22.5 dollars an hour

[snow wagon]

I can swim, but I'm not amazing at it

[narrow oak]

,calc 15/(35/60)

[hardy current]

Result:

25.714285714286

[mild frigate]

private lessons can also go up to $60 an hour if you're older

[mild frigate]

ah

[narrow oak]

@snow wagon $22.50~$25.71 an hour nice

[snow wagon]

I'm pretty advanced in math, so during the school year I'm going to tutor one of my parents friend's son

[mild frigate]

smart

that's good

[snow wagon]

When I can actually get a job, what places would you recommend?

[mild frigate]

well it depends. what do you like and what are you good at? (aside from academics)

[snow wagon]

Idk what im good at, but I'm terrible at being creative and writing/drawing

[mild frigate]

do you do any sports? or do you prefer a job that doesn't require any specific skills

[snow wagon]

I run cross country and track

[mild frigate]

hmm

if you're into books, working at indigo is pretty nice as it's a very chill environment. If you want your typical customer service job, then starbucks, mcdonalds, etc. if you're willing to dedicate an entire summer, you can consider becoming a camp counsellor.

[narrow oak]

what's indigo?

[mild frigate]

you can also check out food delivery since there's tips

oh shit

wait

sorry that's a canadian store mb 💀

[narrow oak]

lol

[mild frigate]

its a bookstore that's canada-wide

but bookstores hire teens usually

[narrow oak]

oh yeah I should check out jobs at my local library

[snow wagon]

we have barnes and noble, which is a book store

[narrow oak]

I'm old enough to work now so

[mild frigate]

ahh i see

[narrow oak]

yeah barnes and nobles is nice

[snow wagon]

I can't work at my local library, but i volunteer there 5-6 times month

[mild frigate]

i also know some people who act as referees which pay an insanely good wage ($30 CAD per hour)

oh and being a waiter/waitress is a very good job as there's tips on top of your wage

[snow wagon]

I did that when i was 13, i got paid 15 USD a game, but i only reffed 2-3 games a week, and in a year there is 12 weeks for the sport i ref

[mild frigate]

ah i see

[deft rock]

My birthday is near the end of the month, and I'll be able to choose between getting a PS5 and an Xbox Series X. My issue is that I can't decide which one I should get. On the one hand, I already have an Xbox 1 X, so an argument could be made that a Series X would be good, and gamepass is just super convenient as well. As for the PS5, I am kinda interested in the Spiderman games, and the PS5 just looks really cool. Anyway, any help would be appreciated thanks!

[vivid birch]

I had a ps4 and i have many xboxs and i prefer the xbox but i grew up on it so i could be biased

[vivid birch]

And if you r only intreated in spider man games then i reccomend the xbox bc buying a gaming consuls for just one reason is somewhat of a wast

[deft rock]

I mean theres a few other interesting games

Can I have any tips on how to make this introduction better? It's about the differences between Mumbai India and Melbourne Australia

Mumbai, India and Melbourne, Australia, what would you think is more liveable? First you might wanna know what liveability is, well liveability is the quality of life whether it's good or bad. There are 5 Big factors in deciding which city is more liveable. I have chosen three of them as I think they are the most important factors: Stability, Health-Care and Education. To compare the two cities you must know a little bit of background before comparing them. Melbourne is a city in Victoria with a Population Density of 500 residents per sq kilometre being about 188 years old. Mumbai is a city in the province (state) of Maharashtra being 516 years old with 21 000 people per square kilometre.

[bitter roost]

Well what do they have in common?(I already rewrote something for you but I probably should walk you through my train of thought.)

[lethal mantle]

I have a question. If you choose a competitive major for uni would that lower your acceptance rate?

[bitter roost]

Okay, I'm bored of waiting.

Mumbai and Melbourne, two cities of the former British empire yet they couldn't be more different. One of the differences I'm interested in is liveability. Well, what is liveability? It's a measurement of the quality of life. To compare the two cities, I need to know what effects quality of life. There are five big factors however for this essay I will focus on the three I think are most important: Stability, healthcare and education.

move the part about population and location further in the essay.

[rich stream]

if you are looking for a job a programming freelancer job would be better than fast-food job

[steel jewel]

I don't think it should have a big impact

It might

But also the programs will be better for a competitive major

[neon obsidian]

rift valleys are created when two tectonic plates diverse

diverge

so the ground is separating

a byproduct of this is water collecting in the holes that form

so in east africa we see a bunch of skinny elongated lakes forming

nyasa, turkana, tanganyika, exchethera

and they become bigger as east africa and the rest drift further and further apart

@high hull how is that?

[bold raptor]

OMG

I FORGOT THIS WAS A PING

Does anyone know how to turn off 2 step verification for a google email? I got signed out of my account and can't log in without 2 step.

[narrow oak]

Were you able to log in right now at least?

[narrow oak]

Anyways you should keep 2 step verification on since it's way more secure, but if you really want to turn it off then I think you have to go to the security tab in your Google account

[snow wagon]

I can't even log in to turn it off.

[narrow oak]

Uh

[narrow oak]

And you're not logged in on any other device?

[snow wagon]

no, because its a school account, and I just moved from ms to hs so they changed the password to my email. So when you change a password, you get signed out of everything

[narrow oak]

And you don't have access to the 2-step verification?

[snow wagon]

Nope, I emailed the person who is incharge of all the email stuff in my disctrict to see if he can fix it. but until then, no access what so ever

[narrow oak]

That's annoying

[feral anchor]

what if you do the try another way button

on the 2 step verificaion

[narrow oak]

When does/did school start?

[snow wagon]

it says contact admin

[snow wagon]

Next week tuesday, the 22nd

Okay, at least you have a week, let's hope they fix it by then

Physics 2a, linear motion

Anyone know?

v=u+at

wait nvm that dont work

(3x60x0.3) - (1.5x20)

= 6

so velocity is 6 m/s

[safe axle]

No, you look like somebody who plays a sport, don’t overthink things

Your teacher is going to see you based on however you act in those first few days

[deft dagger]

I’ve been asking myself the exact same question

[deft dagger]

What grade are you

[steel jewel]

i think you just need the exam and not a class

If you want graduation credit, then take it through a school or possibly do dual enrollment instead and then take the exam

[mild frigate]

Johns Hopkins Centre for Talented Youth offers exactly that. Only issue is that they cost an insane price (if I remember correctly, $3K USD before financial aid and you can only get aid if you're in the US) and they require a form of examination to be done in order to start any one of their programs.

I'm pretty sure some other places offer it too for a much less price but this is the one i did (not for credit as I'm not in the US)
