I will do this, but I don't want to seem arrogant or imposing. I might wait before I've had at least some prerequisite math and science before I go about pretending I can understand their field.
TL;DR Summary: I'm trying to understand what research fields I would have access to as a person who's majoring in chemistry. So how deep does thermodynamics go and how much of a foothold could I get into research on it as someone who's majoring in chemistry? Or is it really only accessible to...
Welllll.... This school is not exactly the most exclusive school. I know of only one person who has been turned down and he's... not the brightest.
I'm going to go in with this attitude, and try to get the most out of the program that I can. I will be humble about it though, like you said, no...
Yes, I'm doing very well academically right now. All A's (midway to sometimes low As), taking lots of college credit, good test scores, etc. However my GPA has placed me in only the top 50% of my class, which especially hurts me since I go to a very rural school with a level of rigor that is...
Yeah I blabbered on for a good bit there. Whoops
Okay I def was not being being very clear in the original post, so ill try to clear some stuff up.
I'm a senior in high school, and basically threw away my gpa during my freshman and sophomore years but these past two years I've picked things...
Well right now I don't have much of an option. However I may consider transferring after my first year to a larger public institution. An example of a college that I may consider to transfer to is Texas A&M (not sure if I could swing getting admitted here) or somewhere like the University of...
Long story short, this college in my hometown is the only place that's financially viable for me to go to school (at least for my first year, I may be able to get better transfer scholarships than I was as a freshman). It has a student population of 5000, and around here if you go there its...
I never would have known this had existed if you didn't comment. Thank you! Is there some sort of introductory resource I could use to learn more about this? Due to their conciseness, everything I can find seems to assume previous knowledge of abstract algebras (am I using that term(s) right?)...
Oh goodness... I forgot to explain my motivations for doing this. I'll be a college freshman majoring in biology next year and since I've gotten a lot of gen eds out of the way, I'll have the opportunity to add a minor or second major in math (which I've only recently realized the importance of...
TL;DR Summary: I will be reviewing/filling in gaps in my precalc knowledge over the course of 6 months and I think I'll have time to go off the beaten path a bit with the material I cover. What topics could supplement this that maybe I would not be able to learn in a typical precalculus...
