Physics 1
Physics Labratory 1
Linear Algebra
Differention and Integral Methods(whatever THAT is)

And that's it for this semester. I managed to get a permission to not study Programming so I have 4 hours less than everyone.

Eli!!!!!!!!!!! *hugs* So, how do you like the Technion. We should meet tomorrow. When do your lectures end? I am free from 12:30.

Do you people take Linear Algebra? previously, you guys took Algebra 1M ( the tougher course). I wonder what's up with that.

So, what did you end up studying?

cinch · October 22, 2003, 18:55

I'll join the course-listing fun (I actually posted this in the old thread by accident, but now I'm moving it... so it's OKAY.)

Thermodynamics and Stat Mech
Algebraic Structures I (group and ring theory)

Next semester:
General Relativity
Quantum IV (intro particle theory)
Algebraic Structures II
Possibly graduate-level Nonlinear Dynamics

The other classes I want aren't being offered next semester, so I'll probably be taking a history class. I've narrowed them down to:
19th Century Europe
Pre-Colonial India
America as a World Power
Imperialism and Globalization

MrFun · October 22, 2003, 20:30

graduate courses I'm taking:

Historiography

20th Century American Culture

Neutrino · October 22, 2003, 20:31

Software Engineering
Ecology
Behavioral Ecology
Molecular Bio
Intro to Ancient Greece (bleh, for degree req)

I'll be done w/ coursework for my BS in computer science after this semester, but I'm staying for a BS in biology (evolution, ecology, and behavior focus).

Odin · October 22, 2003, 21:12

My final year of high school.

1st semester
Advanced Art
US Government
Current Events
Choir
Biology

Jules · October 22, 2003, 21:29

This semester:

Adv. Macroeconomics & Monetary Theory
International Trade Theory
Econometrics II ("micro-econometrics")

Next semester (tentative):

Problems in Monetary Theory & Policy
Adv. Topics in International Trade
Econometrics III ("macro-econometrics")

Bookwyrm · October 22, 2003, 23:42

This semester I have:

General Chemistry I
Lab for General Chemistry I
A philosophy course entitled Ways of Thinking
Introduction to Computer Science I
Discrete Mathematics

Three courses which each meet only one weekend this semester, after which I have to write a short paper for each of them, or had to in the case of the two I already had.

All that Jazz, the American 1920s
Lost generation, American 1960s
Collective Dreams, Thoreau Gandhi and Martin Luther King

I got sick when I was supposed to be writing the papers for the two of those I've had, so I suspect I'll be failing them.

Next Semester I don't know about yet, we just got the tentative course offerings to look over and registration isn't until the first week of November. Looks like it will be a real pain selecting my classes because a brief look over the course offerings indicates that they've put all the courses that are interesting to me or required for me in the same few time slots.

Differention and Integral Methods is Calculus. Dont worry it easer then it sounds. Single varible calculus is not to difficult. BUt I dont understand why you have to take Algebra when you are taking Calculus, makes no sense to me. What is you major by the way?

Jack_www · October 22, 2003, 23:54

Oh yes I am think of tutoring people over the internet. Once I get it all set up if any of you guys need help with your Calculus class or lower math class pm me. I will see if I can help you since I am trained as a tutor.

Your memory sucks. I'm in Tel Aviv University.

makes 7*2 = 14 hours per week, quite neat

Ecthy · October 23, 2003, 11:22

week one was relatively unspectacular, and this so called fresher's year doesn't seem too special

either I'm doing something wrong or this system differs too much from the anglosaxon one

Ecthy · October 23, 2003, 11:24

Next terms I'll do stuff like Latin I (needed for history exam), English IV (97% in the test) and French III, maybe some other modern language, Russian or Polish, just to better specialise in international politics.

"Does God Exist?" A class? What you learning in that class?

18 units is a heavy load with a part time job, hope you make it to the end.

Japher · October 29, 2003, 14:14

I wish I was still in school... All these course sound like a lot of fun, except teh History stuff, sorry Etc... ain't my ball of cheese... Maybe I'll go back someday for an advanced degree, but I am just too lazy... Have fun guys

Ecthy · November 17, 2003, 16:09

thanks

you give tuition, Az?

I might look into part time job myself but first I have to finish moving (tidying my room, finally...) and get all stuff at uni sorted... then I'll look into leisure... sports, job...

Basically the history of where theism is based in ancient history in the first half and now we're reading philosophers regarding the actual existance of God or not.

Many thanks. Not to mention the full-time family as well

One paper done, another one next weekend, the next after that, and the next after that and I'm in the clear.
