Another one for the College 'Kids'

[nevohraalnavnoj]

Mine is going to be either Steel II or Analysis II. Analysis is a numerical analysis course, where we have to learn the processes and then write a program that can run the process we just learned. (have I mentioned that even Excel kicks my butt?)

If I don't die this semester I'll be good

Nice. Matlab will make your life easier, if you can learn it. I'd avoid Excel at all costs.

History! WWI and II, althought it will be interesting, I've gotta write upwards of 3, 3000+ word essays.....

use real small words then the essay go fast like this.

i finished school in 05 but my hardest class was advanced invertebrate zoology.

For me I'd have to say either Fluid Power, or Industrial Motor Controls.

I go to University of Phoenix online, and take two courses that last nine weeks. The last courses were Java Programming and Geology. Geology was easy, but Java Programming was pretty difficult. I aced both classes, but had to put a lot of effort forth in Programming. This term I am taking Internet Concepts and Algebra 1. Honestly I think that Algebra 1 will be harder for me. I am terrible at math. Internet Concepts has a lot to do with web development, which I am pretty familiar with.

My most challenging is going to be Biochemical Toxicology Lab.

Its a really interesting lab and I know I'm going to learn a lot of important things, but its just so much work.

Its a 6 hour lab held on saturday mornings starting at 8:30 AM. The lab report for each lab has be in the form of a scientific journal article and the Prof. told us that we need to spend a minimum of 20 hours working on it to do it correctly.

Last weeks lab we studied the effects of Cyanide and Acrylonitrile and two antidotal treatments.

Most challenging for me is pretty even this year....sort of

I am taking Orgo II, Cell and Molecular Biology, Comparative Anatomy and Physiology of Vertebrates and social science based on Race, Class and Gender.

Orgo I was really tough for me since I much prefer/understand inorganic chemistry....but things are going really well so far and my professor is doing really well, along with my, albeit hard to understand, TA.

Bio I, aka Population/Ecological Biology, was really interesting and easy for me....Cell and Molecular...not so much. I find it extremely boring, and most of it is repetitive from all the parts of inorganic chem that I didnt like. Too much memorization.

Race, Class, and Gender will be a lot of reading, but shouldnt be too bad....it seems like it is going to make me reminisce about some of my favorite classes, and teacher, from high school.

Now...the big dog....Comparative. It is the first designated class for my major, and I am really enjoying it, but the amount of absolutely new information, vocabulary and terms is insane. I have lab for it tonight and we have to know upwards of 100 specific parts of the cat skull.

Overall, despite previous hard times in orgo, I am expecting my most challenging, but fun class, to be Comparative...but my worst grade to be Bio simply for the lack of motivation to study it Gotta love lazy college kids right?

Cool topic...we should do this every semester.

That sounds exactly like one of my semesters sophomore year... Weird Except instead of Comp Anat I took Marine Vertebrates, which entailed learning/memorizing A TON of stuff about marine animals... mainly fish. Was hard, but I love that stuff.

Oh I know what you mean about this one. I'm in Vet Tech school and I'm taking anatomy and physiology I and the first week of lab we went over cat skulls...I have a lab test over it this week actually good luck!

Ah, I would if I could. Matlab already has programs that do what we are supposed to be writting. My b/f laughed so hard when I showed him my first assignment. He uses Matlab all the time. My prof isn't that computer literate, and his program of choice is Excel/VBA. Although he is easy to please. He thinks it's the coolest thing ever if you make your program talk, or do something else he hadn't seen before.
