been playing piano for 1.5 years and guitar for 3 years. I'm mostly interested in folk and classical sounding music. a thing about music i find fascinating is sight reading. i am not excellent at it but i practice every day. the fact that you can just look at a piece and play it right away...

Does anyone here play a musical instrument? For how long have you been playing and why?

It is a sign from the heavens foreboding great woe.

An astronomer is walking in a field at night gazing at the stars when he unwittingly falls into a well and cries for help. A man passing by notices his cries for help, and the man asks the astronomer how he got down there. The astronomer replies he was so focused on the sky that he forgot all...

Here's from experience. Never talk back. Always be silent, never argue, if you make a mistake, always keeps silent and try to fix it and inform others, do not panic or say 'OH DAMN,' under any circumstance even if you feel like crying. I think the biggest thing to understand is when things go...

Ok, I have decided that I will become a micro-biologist (by no means micro!). I think that is a good and a rewarding career. Thanks everyone. I more interested in the 'micro' side of biology. So that's what I should do.

The first difference that most people notice is ...the salary. Engineers make lots of cold-hearts*. Engineering majors have to take physics, chemistry, and engineering electives. It's hard work! Math majors I think do more 'seat work' or 'bench work.' Math majoring is equally hard I believe...

Pick out an interesting chemistry, ochem book, physics, engineering book. Always have a 'solutions' manual handy. An instructor's solution's manual helps. Now start working the chapter-end problems. This method works, trust me. BUT For molecular and cellular biology it is a bit different...

A good place to start math is Calculus by James Stewart (not the actor, but who knows the actor anyways, I dont!). It a very good book. BUT you will need an instructor's manual to teach yourself, get that. The book is very clearly illustrated and very good to look at, and simple overall.

Good luck. Here a good advice for math majors. Get the fundamentals down as solid as possible. Always get the instructor's solution manual if you're studying on your own, they help so much. And you have to be as scrupulous a teacher as any if you want to avoid bad mistakes/misconceptions.

I'm not a professor (Senior at UMBC) but here's my take on this. There usually too much in a textbook for an entire semester. And often times a lot of the jettisoned material is derivative, meaning if they teach you A, then they maybe expect you to understand B somewhat. I have taken...

Correction, salaries are $34,000. Wink wink. Not trying to be funny! I myself am a Biology major!

Thanks for the reply, Crosson! That internship was really boring, and I did it after high school, before entering college! And it was all lifting and cleaning. It was basically a manual labor job. So I would definitely like to continue my studies. What are some 'popular' disciplines?

I about to graduate in 1 year (I have just finished my Junior year). So what next? I'm unsure... For this discussion (consider that I am NOT going to medical school). By the time I graduate I will have a --say-- 3.5 or 3.4 GPA. Money is not important, but I would like Career that pays well...
