2 more exams later on too

one or two in english, on slaughterhouse five.

since im still in high school, but live in the great state of texas so we get exemptions, ill have to take physics, english 3 AP , Pre-Cal, and art 1( biggrin: ), in a week or two

DUnno about me yet. i know i definatly got my math SOL (standards of learning) this wed. eek:

Well this week so far I just had a huge Programing test and a huge WWI test in Social tommorow is an in class essay in English and Social. So that is so far what I have this week and this is only Grade 11 ahh hake:

Haaaa ha ha haaa, god help you. I remember the days...Now i make up the exams!!!!

freak:

Note to self never become an organic chemist,.

...ah shit too late

aha, so u can help me with substitution and elimination reactions... biggrin:

Calculus final on the 16th. That's my only final, but I'll have lots of other work to do before that.

sure fire away, i didnt go to college and grad school for nothing


PM if you seriously want help, i have no problem helping people who need it, i am also a chemistry TA for:

But you have to pay for their service.

Heh, I'll be assembling a 8 chamber bong while you guys are going to be cooped up in a gym doing a test.... or secretly rubbing your penis under the desk because the hot teacher is wearing a miniskirt, and she has more legs than a bucket of chicken.

what's your major?

Argon,

how can one easily tell apart if a rxn is to be Sn1, Sn2, E1, or E2???? I get those all mixed up. oOo: thx

I am a 5th year graduate student "hopefully" getting my Ph.D this may in Organic polymer chemistry.

Substitution, is just that you substitute one group for another.
ie nucleophilic displacement of a halogen(Br, I) by nucleophile(OH-, CN-)

Elimination is removing something (usually H, by a Base) to form an unsaturated double or triple bond.
ie the removal of an Acidic proton followed by Beta elimination of some sort of leaving group to give an unsaturated bond.

1 vs 2. 1 means that it is a step-wise reaction, ie A happens then B happens (Not at the same time). 2 means that they happen simultaneously. Their are many factors that favor 1st order or 2 nd order reaction rates (the are too numerous to mention here) but it has to do with stability of the leaving group, solvent polarity, stability of the formed Ionic species, etc..

Ok email or PM met, it might be easier than putting everyone else through Organic 101. Its also a lot easier if you can see the reactions on the paper instead of someone explaining. I have some good tutorials that I use with my undergrads I can send along.

Thanks. happy:

i never thought i'd find intelligent life on these forums.

I wouldn't go that far.............

BAHAH! My Exams finished a MONTH ago...Not to mention school ended TWO WEEKS ago....From here till early febuary is clear, partying, drinking, pimping, generally having a GREAT time.....Either that, or I'll just be sitting at the computer. biggrin:

I fucked up in my GCSE's and had to do GNVQ i fucked up in that and now I'm doing AS-Level. I think I'm going to fuck up in that too.

I don't bother with revising for Mock exams. If you get an F so what? swordfight:

Did my final math exam today - what a joke. Now I can relax until January:
I have two more math classes to do! I'll take the opportunity to learn Latin
and Greek, on top of reading so many books my prescription will probably
change...

Maybe I can get kickass looking glasses like these --> cool:

Let's see. Calculus, Classical Literature, one exam in Political Science. biggrin:

ya im still in high school to. i got a english exam, biology exam, functions and relations (Math) exam, and a Canadian law exam. Bah

Ouch, my brain hurts now.

I am long past having exams, but I do have to prepare for a couple of upcomng audits as well as some managerial reports. Big fun.

Lets just hope those exams dont go to the wayside, and I see you in my office a few years from now -

BOOYAH!!!! I have a stats test tomorrow and I haven't studied jack shit!!!!!!! goin on midnight!!!!

GOOD LUCK YOU'RE SO DEAD

I have an A in stats right now. Quiz tomorrow in it and then the final on the 12th.

I also write Accounting on the 11th and Marketing on the 19.

Last day of school is the 10th.

ok well 1:30 and now time to study.....it's half open book anyways

aww poor freshman

from my senior friends i hear that stats is a joke oOo:

two sample hypothesis test, define the null and the alternative hypothesis

[quote="Old Reliable":9be18]two sample hypothesis test, define the null and the alternative hypothesis[/quote:9be18]

i'm taking this course too....

make sure u know the formulas for T-tests, Z-test, and how to tell what your null and alterhantive hypotheses are. Know your sum of squares, means, etc....

oh yeah, and analysis of variance, aka ANOVA testing.

i just wrote my organic chem exam today. cry:
