    Testing What are some strategies for mastering the SAT?

    Don't worry about it too much. I had something in the 1000s (yes, that low) on my PSAT, and I pulled a 1460 on my SAT. I'm confident I could go higher with a retake. The new SAT.. Hmm.. -For writing, maybe write a few practice essays (on suggested topics). -Verbal, don't concentrate on...

    How do mathematicians and physicists actually work?

    I've always wondered this too.. =) I always thought about working hard to get into a good college/ etc./ etc.. But the thought of doing something never before done is the paramount challenge.

    How Can I Overcome My Negative Feelings About School?

    So precise, so succinct, and so DAMN TRUE. It hits the spot. I'm a senior in hs this year, and I found this out around sophmore/junior year. If you challenge yourself, you will absolutely breeze through whatever course you're struggling with. You have to come to like the subject, and study...

    Is spanking is an effective way to discipline kids?

    Saying not spanking your kids will turn them into "whiny, feminine adults" is BS. Maybe I'm forced to take offence because I was never really "spanked," but seriously, even if you were joking, how stupid is that? It pisses me off to see people satisfied holding onto erroneous logic.

    How do you guys/gals feel about HS algebra-based physics?

    Oh, wow.. If I were in that situation, I'd instantly take it. Our school has the worst physics cirriculum ever. We have it divided into four parts (basics, electricity, optics, mechanics..) each one semester, which all together goes for two years. Each of these are extremely easy and dulled...

    Career & College Help: Aerospace, Physics or Engineering?

    Well, hey! Pretty much, I'm a senior, and it's time to make the decision for careers and colleges. And I'm struggling. I'm having a hard time choosing between aerospace and physics. Advise, please? I don't just want to build rockets.. I don't just want a degree in physics. I guess I just...

    Real numbers x and y, f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y)+1. If f(1)=2, what is f(3)?

    wow... I feel completely lost. How do I find f(2)?

    Real numbers x and y, f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y)+1. If f(1)=2, what is f(3)?

    Ok, I'm sure this is an easy problem and all, but it's pissing me off. I'm probably just not understanding it. The function f has the property that for any real numbers x and y, f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y)+1. If f(1)=2, what is f(3)? help.
