Especially helpful would be anyone who has had a similar problem and found a way to overcome it. I'm an INTJ personality type, if that is at all relevant.

I really like physics and engineering, and am currently taking the prerequisites required to transfer to a full-time university. However, I am having trouble dedicating myself to getting the calculus homework done, and studying in a timely fashion. I was wondering in anyone here had any tips...

Much appreciated!

Functional to an exponential.. haha. Not exactly what I meant, but okay.

Homework Statement Suppose f is differentiable on \mathbb R and \alpha is a real number. Let G(x) = [f(x)]^a Find the expression for G'(x) Homework Equations I'm pretty sure that I got this one right, but I really want to double check and make sure. The Attempt at a Solution...

I disagree with a lot of the advice given here. Unless you're at some victorian party, or some upper echelon get together where you need to be "in the know" to be accepted, then just go join in on conversations. It's only awkward if you think it's awkward. People at these parties want to get...

The sum total of the "natural" pickup theory I've learned. Go talk to women. A lot. Set small goals at first, push yourself and set bigger goals. Start with saying hi to 1 cute girl 7 days a week. Just hi. The next week, ask a cute girl how her day is, every day of the week. So on and so...

Maybe not, but if a girl is willing to spend her time in a library actually working on school, it's probably a safe bet that she's a cool chick and worth talking to. She has interests, she's capable of working to achieve her dreams, she is somewhat intellectual, and she is attractive. What more...

Just go say "Hi," and ask about what she's working on. If she's attracted to you she'll respond positively, if she's not, she won't. The majority of communication is nonverbal, so what you say doesn't really matter, it's the intention behind what you're saying. If your intention is that she...

Generally universities will want you to take classes applying to your major with them. I'd say take your core classes at the community college to save time and money. Take calculus 1 as well, as that is a requirement for the first semester of a physics major. That should get you in good...

Think about this as well. The more you know, and are capable of doing, the more valuable you are as an employee. If you are a physicist whose well rounded, then you are capable of doing more than a physicist who is not well rounded. The more you can do, the more people will want you.

Find out how the subjects apply to you, and focus on that. English is practice for writing physics papers. Geography/History is getting you prepared to travel internationally and lecture by learning about all these cultures and their interrelations. Phys ed. is getting you in shape so you...
