I use medication for test anxiety. Yes I noticed a significant difference in my test scores (Low C's to mid range B's and up). Not sure what you would like to know, but just ask.

I am not off base. I stated they were contracted. But they are not DoD jobs. Those use a different pay scale and you would be a government employee.

I could be wrong on this but the places you listed are not DoD. DoD jobs would be typically at naval research places and such. While the places you listed are funded mostly by the government I believe you would still be a private employee without the (GSI? pay scale). You might want to look...

Homework Statement Generalize the integral from 0 to 1 of 1/(x^p) What conditions are necessary on P to make the improper integral converge and not diverge? I believe I have the answer but I would like to make it more formal and sound. Can someone help me with that?Homework Equations None...

Homework Statement and is in reference to the intersection of a set. I know the formula that P(A and B ) = P(B) * P(A|B) Now we are given something of the nature of P(A and B and C) I am trying to figure out a formula for this. From my searches on google I only find people giving the formula...

I would like to say that I as well had a similar situation in regards to your academic history. I am now in my second year of college finally taking my first Calculus based physics course as well as Calculus 2. I am unsure where you are academically but I HIGHLY advice you to be patient with...

UCLA where the girlfriend goes to and one of my professors requires a minor. I would hardly consider that university a bad one. I think it makes interdisciplinary studies much easier to achieve which I believe the OP wants to eventually do. If you were only looking for pure mathematical research...

Wouldn't that be dependent on said Phd and then said minor? From what I have seen on these forums you are either planning to do an applied math or plasma physics Phd, but it would be helpful for everyone else if you specify these things. Such as a Phd in the Classics and a minor in Italian will...

My physics professor ( at a community college) has a Phd in Mechanical Engineering. He is relatively new as well. He just became head of the physical science division and also teaches Chem. So, from the sample size of 1 I would say yes you can teach at a 2 year college.

My girlfriend transferred from Sonoma State to Cal Poly SLO for a history major and is now at UCLA for the Classics. She has about a 3.6 transfer GPA

For Grad school in math the Abstract algebra and Real Analysis are going to be essential. For Grad school in physics, the advanced mechanics, and EM are essential. Optics is more applicable to industry. But for your goals save that for a free elective. This is not a necessary course for...

Option II for grad school in mathematics or physics. What are your goals?

A place with a good masters program that is a bit more realistic to a above average student from out of country would be Cal Poly SLO's masters program for electrical engineering. I know the head of the department, it is a good program and it focuses a bit of fiber optics.

At my school the jump you just said would never happen. Modern without EM? LA&DEQ's Without calculus 2 minimum? Where do you go?

What courses have you taken thus far?
