MATH

[QuiKMeLT]

anong math pinakaayaw nyo? ilagay nyo na rin kung saang school kayo galing.

math17 ng up?o math54? ano pa?

[tRiStAn]

Of all the Math subjects I've taken in Ateneo, I like Advanced Calculus I and II (Math 171 and 172 respectively) and Combinatorics (Math 195J.12) least.

[frenzy]

Kahit anong branch ng math, ayoko talaga!

sino-sino yung mga teacher mo... naging teacher mo ba si doc quimpo???

oh my God! andyan pa rin si NFQ? Norman F. Quimpo?

I had a big year with him nuong freshman pa ako! Ma21 & Ma22: I don't know kung it is him or it is the composition of the class but I swear pumuti ang buhok ko! The first two sems of my college life was spent with Quimpo and his fanatical students.

Yes! Big time chess team captain Bernard Chan didn't give me an inch. Papaano ako makakakuha ng desenteng grade kay Quimpo if he always exceeds the 100 pt mark?

Imbis na ma-curve ang grades paakyat - pinapababa niya with his no-less-than-110%-always na grades sa exam!

I should have taken the regular math course (Math18 A&B) na lang sana so that I had a more decent grade in Math, hindi pa ako nahirapan ng husto. Whew, good thing those are the only two math i took in college. I swear, I liked math very much in HS, but when i got to Quimpo's class, that last two math was worse than hell...

yugaadvanced placement ka ba??? ako kasi ap din... kaso lang si doc mara ang teacher ko... sobrang galing... at mabait sa grades... si doc quimpo, teacher ko ngayon sa discrete math... grabe, sya lang ang nakakaintindi sa pinagsusulat nya pati si bhonny... http://www.pinoyexchange.com/lol.gif
tRiStAn: turuan mo naman ako sa graph theory at sa logic...

It's not advisable to skip Math 18, well, except if you're really good. After being through many Math courses, I realize that it pays to have reviewed the basics, which, as a Math major, I had from Math 18. That's why I don't have any regrets whatsoever about missing the Advanced Placement Test.

cultured pearls: Thank God, I've never been under Dr. Quimpo. I heard he's quite a shocker, but hey, I've been under some shocking teachers myself. Anyway, I don't know why they changed your curriculum. We never had Discrete Math in ours; in place of it is Number Theory. Gaaad, you shouldn't miss Number Theory! It's very, very exciting and fun. Just don't take it under Mr. Escuadro. ;)

yuga: Hahaha! Bitter ba? Well, you shouldn't have skipped Math 18. Anong napala mo? http://www.pinoyexchange.com/crazy.gif

i luv math ...
ayaw ko lang ng mga prof's ko!

[marie_17]

I kinda dnt like math 17..kc ba naman pinagsabay sa chem16.. But the prof is nice, it's the subject which i dont like!

Neway, i'm from UPd. frshman pa lang, so first math series. Pero grabe first pa nga lang i find it hard na, how cud i survive in the next series pa kaya???

alam mo tRiStAn, tama ka dyan... madyo naging traumatic yung ap sa akin buti na nga lang at si doc mara yung teacher ko... ano ba yung number theory??? kasi kami sa discrete math - may combinations and permutations, counting techniques, inclusion-exclusion, generating functions, logic at ngayon graph theory... turuan mo naman ako... eb naman tayo sa ateneo... ikaw kaya mag-conduct ng eb sa mga taenistang pexers???

tRiStAn...
i also heard escuadro is a shocker! http://www.pinoyexchange.com/lol.gif

UPD

Math 114 - some portions of it e.g. the topic on vector spaces. The rest, ok na (matrices & eigenvalues)
EE 102 - random variables, arggh! (but dont get me wrong, the course is very important if you want to go into communications)

Math 17, Math 53 series - the best, very intuitive. There are topics in Math 17 that are still very relevant in higher eee courses e.g. trigo identities

ES 21 and EE 15 - very useful. EE 15 - lalo na pag gusto mo mag DSP. Gamit din pag nag aral ka ng quantum mechanics (Physics 104)
