no, they aren't just teaching us to use a program to solve Differential equations. they still expect us to know how to do it all by hand as well. I think the idea of using Matlab is to enhance our knowledge of DE. Also, i have taken two years of calculus prior to this class, so i think I am...

ah, thanks. The reason i asked is because the professor was late in specifying what book we needed so the campus bookstore has yet to order it. Also, The class has an emphasis on engineering and using MATLAB to solve DE. has anyone done this before? I'm not sure how this can be done because...

thank you very much for your insight. i appreciate it greatly.

Yes, i agree with your thoughts on Grad school and my future in chemical engineering. At this point, I am goin back and forth between a future in medicine or chemical engineering. i truly do enjoy engineering and i can definitely see myself doing engineering for a long time, but i also find...

Hello alll. i am enrolled in Differential Equation Calc this semester. i was wondering what kind of stuff will i be doing and what should i expect in terms of difficulty etc. thanks in advance

Thanks for the reply GCT. i meant to reply earlier, but with school starting up, its been a little hectic! You say my GPA is considered low, but i have read on several webpages that a 3.5 is considered to be a reasonable GPA to get into Med school. Am i reading bad info? if i am, what GPA...

the first one is def. wrong. where did u get H20 as a reactant? the original problem states "Sulfur trioxide is heated with carbon dioxide." Re-work the first one, and for a hint, there will be no net ionic reaction for this one b/c nothing is in solution. the second one is right. the...

thanks for your thoughts. I don't think I am too low for anything, and i am more than confident in my ability to get into medical school.

not sure this is the right forum, but here it is: ok, just to start out, i am a sophomore Chemical Engineering student at The University of Pittsburgh (Main Campus). I currently hold a 3.2 cumulative GPA (or do they go with QPA? i never can remember) and i plan to go onto medical school...

Ok, where to start. First of all, you need to have compressed air avaliable to you. I seriously doubt that you do so i recommend that you go to your local auto repair center and have them do it for a small fee, if any at all. Well, to be honest, there is no way to really know when to stop...

I just joined here and I also recently purchased copies of "A Brief Histeoy of Time" and "Parallel Worlds". I have yet to finish Parallel Worlds yet but from what i have read, i have enjoyed greatly and look forward to Dr. Kaku's next book. In my time reading Parallel Worlds, though not...
