I have an awesome computer class :D

[tapemaster21]

I have a 2 hour dual college credit class, and the first couple projects we're doing are to:
Make a power point on PC vs Mac; and We made a blog. Other than a few definitions (Like internet, emoticon, etc) we play quake and other easy to pendrive games :D

discuse

What kind of class is it?

Majoring in electrical engineering(I'll probably mix in some more computer specific classes once I have time). Second day and the work load is already . We pretty much have to learn how/why advanced circuits work, new computing methods, archaic methods, theory, information from other fields, etc. That's just for one class for this semester!

I like it though.

i was thinking of taking some type of computer engineering class. some people say im smart, but i suck at...oh yeah..i dont suck XD...thats a joke, im prettty bad at social studies due to the fact that its boring. anyways...yeah, so what are you taking?

[tapemaster21]

It's "Vocational Computer Networking"

[Bisjac]

you dont have to know much to take a class. that's the point in taking classes lol.

Lucky bastard. This year, if you even go to any kind of website with games on it, an AP comes up and gives you a referral/detention.

Computers have right-clicking blocked, and absolutely no access to "My Computer."

Lolpwnt.

@otis, what do you mean who?

Omega video tapes people for a bit. Then he quits talking in third person. I then go and edit the video and help others after I am done. We are doing an opening shot of that free running thingy, pocore or whatever it is called.

I'm majoring in architecture, so far all I've had to do are problems 1-21 and 31-39 out of a math text book (math course is basically the same thing I took my junior year of high school, so an easy A). I've spent 35 dollars on drafting supplies, and I'm probably going to have to buy another 80-120 worth of tools though. Also, looking at class syllabuses, the work load is going to explode within the next few weeks.

My math teacher put every homework assignment on the syllabus though, so I might just do them all this weekend.

By the end of the semester, in addition to finals, I have to draw a single family home and a pool cabana with a guest room. :(

All my syllabi have every homework assignment so I did a couple of the math and chemistry assignments. The math isn't looked at and the chemistry is just a completion grade but I'll still do them. It was the same system for me in high school.

The grading systems suck though. Curved grading scales are fail. It's a straight curve system in my calculus class so whatever the class average is is what a C+ is classified as. That's a bane to people with scholarships and those who want to go to grad school. My chemistry class uses a combonation hard points/curve system though. If the class average is 50-60% of the max points it will be a hard point scale. If it goes below it will be a curve. I also need to adjust to the fact that you aren't expected to get "good" grades. My chemistry professor used a speedometer brown townogy. The makers of a speedometer mark it from something like 0-120. You're not expected to ever be going 120 but it's still there.

My English teacher seems like a typical douchebag though. The kind of kid who coasted through college taking the easiest classes available and ending up with an English degree; finding out it's only good for teaching English.
