    Whoo, Chu! hope you'll be accepted.

    thanks. however, it wasn't an examination to determine entrance to the college. that's automatically granted. it was an examination to determine where i'll be 'placed' on the hierarchy of courses- what courses i can take my first semester without needing to take prerequisites.

    my primary goal is to be allowed to take calculus in the fall.

    From what you've described I doubt you'll have a problem there. I'd be very surprised if they didn't let you start at Calc 1.

    thanks for the vote of confidence! from what i hear so long as you're well spoken and polite you can convince almost any department head to waive a requirement (within reasonable limits). it's very important to me that i take calc. i hope to transfer to a competitive school and as a STEM major, 'remedial precalc' or, god forbid, 'collegiate algebra', would make my transcript look like shit.

    so i've got my fingers crossed!

    There are other intelligence tests that show a gradual increase in average intelligence - like Army entrance exams, for instance.

    because im willing to bet we will find ways of slowing certain types of degenerative problems and ageing, but we will be unable to simply reverse them

    which is fuqed up yo

    the other possibility is we go full retard on stem cell shit and grow entire body parts in vats and then its just like oh your body is falling to pieces here have a replacement one but then it turns out we cant do microsurgery on the neck well enough to connect the nerves BUT THEN it turns out you literally just inject stem cells into that shit like they did with those fucking rats and then you have to relearn how to use your whole body but it turns out its ok because your tits dont droop no more

    You norm the questions against your sample population to be 100. If you don't re-norm them, then shift for whatever reason can send the average score achieved by people taking it either up or down until you re-norm it for your population.

    Pretty much all intelligence testing can be divided into: completely shit, mostly shit, and kind of shit.

    And there are different flavors of shit depending on whether you want your shit to be internally consistent, shit that's consistent with other shit, shit that's generalizable within a culture, or shit that's generalizable across cultures.

    I decided a couple years back that having a child is a financial and emotional burden I'd rather not have.

    But I still really like sex, so I want to still have that, and I'm not a huge fan of contraceptives in my monogamous permanent relationship, so

    I was like "What if, I could get a doctor to slice into my genitals with a laser and install titanium implants thereby rendering me sterile but still sexually potent?"

    turns out I just had to ask for it!

    and it was done

    cost me zero dollars
