    I've taken a large number of math courses, including the full calculus cycle, as part of my Com Sci specialization, and enough Philosophy that I could have taken it for a second major if I hadn't been specialized (specificially: 101, 120, 200, 205, 220, 240, 325, 333, 343, 420, 421, and 422).

    The hardest philosophy course presented a challenge in terms of effort required, workload, study needed, and difficulty of the examinations, that I would rank as rather less than the challenge presented by the easiest introductory calculus course, and I rather think I have a good basis for comparison. How many calc courses have you taken, _J_?

    It's much harder to bullshit your way out of a derivitive equation.

    They're a perfect reflection of one's performance within academia.
    But are they also a clear indication of their intelligence?

    Depends on how clearly you mean.

    There's certainly a correlation.

    Hacksaw sounds a lot like my friend to failed out of college because he said that attending the classes was beneath his intelligence.
    Your friend doesn't sound particularly bright. But I suppose that's why you two make such good friends, right?

    Right.

    But that does not translate into, "I got bad grades so I am smart."
    Who the hell implied that?

    And your experience is obviously indicative of the experiences of everyone else at every college, ever.

    I actually didn't drink much then. Boozing would, in fact, seem to have a positive effect on my GPA.

    Good point. The math would be much harder at MIT.
