    Math GRE, fun
    My friends all took their physics GRE yesterday

    I took no GRE, instead I had job interviews that are depressing

    Got one with BCG though! If I land that I'll be like, aw yeah, but I'm not expecting anything

    Well, good luck! I know people who want to work for BCG, from all I've heard it's a good place.

    It's not so much that's CIT is easier, just more along the lines of focused on different things.

    And I just checked BLS, actually! I was thinking along the lines of CIT or mathematical statistics. Both are things that I'm fairly interested in, still pay fairly well, and think I would enjoy to a point.

    it was so dumb and worthless

    no, first year law student, i don't see why you're manning the table for the school you've been attending a month and a half

    what? that's dumb

    but then I made my decision on where to go to school by using that Kaplan list and sorting it by LSAT score.

    Anything that had a median of 2 points above me to 4 points below and was not in the South or the Midwest I applied to

    and then I made my final decision based on who threw the most scholarship dollaz at me

    Got several emails yesterday from people trying to alert the alumni that there was a major budget cut to the music department, and as a result they were having to drop the vocal performance part of the music department. The vocal performance major is a rather small part of the whole department and it involves a series of classes that aren't even available for the general music, instrumentalists, or even vocal education majors, so it seemed like this could actually be true. I noticed a person who is currently in that program was online so I forwarded him the email and asked if he had heard about this. He had not and went to ask his voice teacher about it.

    Turns out she ALSO had not heard about this. She grabbed a few of the other voice teachers and they stormed to the Fine Arts Office to demand some answers. The dean, when confronted by these people, said he had also not heard about any of this and that it must be a rumor which had spun out of control. Then the phones started ringing. Part of the email that was being sent around mentioned that we need to write letters of protest to these people who are tied in some way to the school system. They had received many, many angry letters about something which wasn't even true. Outstanding.

    Today all the vocal people were forced to attend this meeting so they could be told by the dean about this. Hilarious and awkward.

    People probably should have been suspicious when the name of the dean was spelled wrong and they said they were going to fire all the people with tenure instead of the part-time teachers.

    I'm fucked for certain questions: Sequences and series in calculus, and counting problems in algebra ('how many ways can you pick 4 different cards from a pack of 52' and shit). I'm not sure whether working on that or getting the stuff I'm decent with really good will work out better.

    Did I mention that in a stats course I took, the instructor's Chinese accent was such that there was no phonetic difference between how she said qualitative and how she said quantitative.

    There were times where she would write both on the board and point to the one she meant while saying it.

    "With moderate 3% inflation, how much of a hamburger will become after 20 years if it is costed $5 today?"

    "After forming a "base" of 1040EZ and 1040 forms, your next step is to study variables which are sensitive triggering more or less on paying tax."

    these are questions, written on paper
