I'd kill to take like an Algebra class over any of the classes I have to take to still transfer.

*** ***is easy.

I'd kill to remember any of the ***I learned.

When I started going back to school I realized I had forgotten so much ***. Not formulas or anything as I always forget those, but just basic math processes.

It's calculating angular velocity, something that I apparently can't do.

Well I can do, but I suck at sucking information out of a word problem like that.

Yeah... apparently my math skills stopped at pre-algebra since my college tests say that I should be back in a pre-algebra class...

Yay for sucking in math!!!

How long has it been since you were in math?

Some people just bomb those on the first try, I've known people to retake them and do a lot better after they've shook some cobwebs off.

I mean I went right into precalc after mine, but I was able to *** a lot. I wish I had taken just one remedial class, as I had forgotten some stuff and it would have improved my grades and gave me an easier time in a few other classes.

1.5 to 2 years. I've always been terrible in math though. But strangely I've done decently in Science, and since Science and Math usually go hand in hand, one would think I'd do decently in math too, right? Nope!

Math was my worst subject! English was my best.

On another note: I read an article not too long ago about how people who don't do so well in math, when they make remarks about it in front of their children it can unintentionally make them math anxious.

I don't recall what it was basing it on, but the base idea sounds solid.

Oh, not as long as I went... Typically, I'll say if you have to take a physics class you will want to have your math solid, as holy hell.

Yeah, and with this new "common core" math crap, I'm not looking forward to helping my kids with their homework...

In order to graduate high school, we had to take a physics class... but seeing as how my math skills are shitty, I took the slower version of it that my high school had lol.

I read over a problem on that awhile back, yeah *** that ***.

VA apparently hasn't adopted the "common core" not to mention that I'm hoping to home school my kid, depends what I'm doing in a few years though, would have to sell a few organs to be able to afford to do that currently.

Considering you're typing on a device that was made with math, not humanities your point is invalidated (even if it's the shitty humanities version of a good device).

Ah, I should have taken it in HS, along with finishing foreign language, but I opted to take a computer repair class instead.

MI has a free online K-12 school, I believe books are included.

Edit: You can sell one of your kidneys, and I believe one of your lungs. If I remember my MA class, you can survive without one of your lungs, but you'd have to be extremely careful with that.

Don't worry. We will all buy more guns instead of passing gun control.
Ya Damn right we will.

Anyway, Upgraded to Windows 10 off a fresh install of 8 and everything is perfect except that Chrome keeps freezing which is annoying the hell out of me. Firefox is fine, but forget using that..

I see several things wrong with this.

CNN had a breaking news flash mentioning that the shooter is believed to be a disgruntled worker of the same station. (was it CBS?)

Now, I believe that it takes a lot more guts to shove a knife on a person than to pull a trigger on a gun. So, I honestly believe that gun possession should be tightly/strictly controlled.

Said the person who lives at a lawless country where drug dealers walk around peacefully with Russian made assault riffles, grenades and rocket launchers. -_______-;

Would you feel good to know that Glock pistols are also popular here? :c

If everything is perfect except one program. Even if it is off an upgrade. Then I assume it is just that Chrome is doing something that isn't jiving with 10.

1. Windows 8
2. Windows 10
3. "Upgrade"
4. lolChrome (don't smite me Google)
5. Firefox being "fine"
6. not using Palemoon

I'd do a fresh install entirely, just record your product key from the free "upgrade."
