If you could change yourself into just one other animal (not human),
I would be a dolphin... swim alongside boats, do flips, kill sharks, and otherwise be awesome. Otherwise I'd be a bear. Or a tiger. Something powerful. Maybe an eagle so I could fly.- seaofghosts

Schools Picking universities - finding it difficult
I wouldn't say this is the case for undergrad. For example, McGill is one of the top 5 colleges in Canada as far as I know... you can probably compare it to Harvard, and high school GPAs are expected to be above 3.5. Transfer students will need a higher GPA because it'll be more competitive...- seaofghosts

Schools Advice for College: Pursuing Medicine and Math Degrees
Depending on the college you go to, you'll probably major in either biology or pre-med (or a biology with a pre-med track). If you're planning on becoming a surgeon, your plate is going to be extremely full with very little time for a math degree (going by someone I know who's currently in her...- seaofghosts

Can anyone recommend a beginner-friendly book on computers?
Agreed, I think you should start at the beginning and work your way up, because I think there are a lot of things people take for granted and think they know already, when in reality there are gaping holes. I haven't read it, but the book How Computers Work has always looked cool because...- seaofghosts

What is the Best Saxophone Song?
I adore Emilie Autumn for just being her... her style, attitude, etc... but for whatever reason I can't get into her music and I'm not sure why.- seaofghosts

Global problems, how could I help?
It's their home. Same as when Katrina hit -- I would never live in New Orleans out of fear, but people go back and still live there because they're so loyal to it. They also likely wouldn't be welcomed anywhere else because of how many people there are and all the political bs associated with...- seaofghosts

Taking Calculus 1 again. I don't understand algebra. Should I give up?
I had forgotten most of my algebra as well (4-5 yrs since my last math class), and am doing okay in calculus. It comes back to you with practice.- seaofghosts

What is the Best Saxophone Song?
Since we're on a rock/metal kick... I get all environmentally conscious when I listen to this. Dio's voice is incredible. Black Sabbath - Children of the Sea https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJQQWbr4cXM- seaofghosts

What Are Innovative Physics Science Fair Project Ideas for ISEF?
No one here wants to just give you ideas -- that would essentially be cheating. I myself have no idea what goes on in high school science fairs (I didn't go to high school), so it's difficult to gauge what would be the right speed, anyway. Are you able to talk to another instructor in your...- seaofghosts
