Does the reputation of my undergraduate education matter?
interesting post... As to the original poster, If your State undergrad Eng is good +accredited+locally respected then there is no reason to go elsewhere unless u are getting lot of aid/money etc... As Far as I know state eng schools are usually good in a lot of places (choose the best campus...- real10

Understanding Wavelet Transform for Time Series Data Analysis
MATLAB is your best bet to play around with the wavelet transform (i think they even have a toolbox) -IEEE access and do some digging on the transforms (esp if someone used the output of them as the input to a neural network simulation) and how others have applied it.. I used the wavelet...- real10

Should I stick it out in EE with weak-ish math?
I agree at undergrad level CV it was more linear algebra (transformations) on the other hand in almost all of EE -> statistics/probability is inherent and inescapable due to the ever present noise (real world situations) and modeling anything (data or noise) often requires one to characterize...- real10

Should I stick it out in EE with weak-ish math?
To the original poster, I just took the GRE recently and ended up with 760 on the math section...so yeah don't lose hope if u didnt do as well in high school...people end up doing better later on down the road...(i did better at penn state compared to HS and same...- real10

Should I stick it out in EE with weak-ish math?
try to avoid doing something OVER and Over...focus more on understanding especially for EE & Math...understand and then do some examples for practice... for example...understand what the Fourier transform really is (basically the series version converted to continuous...) though memorizing...- real10

Should I stick it out in EE with weak-ish math?
i got 650 in math sat. 680 on the 2c/physics nothing great...but kept working/studying...ended up with 3.55/4.00 (round to 3.6 yeah at Penn State College EE 4 years) did well math classes undergrad...garbageload of selfstudying via books,internet..to keep up with smarter people around me...ups...- real10

Velocity of a particle large and small times
yes it is just the amplitude as I said [( 2/5)^2 + (1/5)^2 ] ^1/2 = +-0.45- real10

Velocity of a particle large and small times
no not between -1 and 1 that is for individual terms.You have to combine them into 1 cosine term and the new amplitude is ur answer. use the below formula: A sint + B cost = (A^2+B^2 ) ^(1/2) * Cos(t-arctan(b/A))- real10

Complex Numbers: Understanding Multiplication, Angles, and Length
for second question a quicker way is to convert to the polar form and then u can see the angle of z1/z2 for first question i=e^i*pi/2 (since sine(pi/2)=1) raise this to "i" power u immediately get e^-pi/2.- real10

Finding the value of an integral
I(x)=\int_0^{+\infty}e^{-xy}\frac{\sin y}{y}dy So I(\infty) = 0 now use this initial condition to find const C and u are done 0 = -arctan(\infty)+C C= \frac{\pi}{2}- real10
