Really? The programs I'm looking at only mention a bachelors. Will do the second part though.

gotcha. But what I meant by that was that everyone will have a LOR and that I am looking for ideas that are more outside the box to stand out as well

I'm only an undergrad are undergrads expected to have a significant amount of research under their belts?

Im presuming top programs are going to be loaded with applications from 3.9+ GPA, high GRE scoring students. outside of these two factors and other generic things like letters of recommendation and personal statements, how else can one separate themselves and stand out? thanks :)

can anyone recommend me a good text on OR that has a decent amount of questions, preferably with answers and even solutions. I am a hands on learner and my current text doesn't provide too many questions thank you

Homework Statement Solve the recurrence relation an = 3an−1 −2an−2 +3, a0 = a1 = 1.Homework Equations an = general solution + particular solutionThe Attempt at a Solution I started with finding the general solution, which was easy. it ended up being A12n + A0 now I am having trouble solving...

There's a course catalog however it's not in any particular order, it's just a bunch of classes I'm expected to take. I'm not going to be making my schedule for probably another month so idk which specific books I need however older edition books on subjects like linear algebra are like 2 bucks...

I've completed calc 1-4 and I want to order textbooks for my upcoming courses however I am not sure what they will be yet. WOuld linear algebra and an analysis class be a safe bet? thanks

sorry, no specific homework question, although it is related to my homework in general. I don't understand what makes an image real or virtual. thanks for the help :) joe

Homework Statement At one instant, the electric and magnetic fields at one point of an electromagnetic wave are E = 300i + 50j − 200k V/m, and B = Bsub0 (1.7i − 3.9j + ak μT. (a) What are the values of a and B0? (b) What is the Poynting vector at this time and position? Homework...

thanks i understand it now :)

Homework Statement There is a current of 20 A in a resistor that is connected in series with a parallel-plate capacitor. The plates of the capacitor have an area of 0.80 m2, and no dielectric exists between the plates. Find the value of the line integral B ∙ dl , where the integration path C...

Sorry if this is in the wrong subsection, i figured this would be the most appropriate section. *** title has a mistake. i meant resonance WIDTH not its freq.*** anyway, i came across resonance WIDTH (sorry not freq.) in one of my HW problems. I honestly can't recall ever going over this in...
