put together, they suck even more, and put together and taught in a 5-week summer session just pisses me off. And I can't drop it cause it's a prereq and if I don't take it, I'll push my grad year by 1 full semester. I got a 69 on my first test and I have never been so happy with an almost passing grade. Just venting!!!

lol, pinche naco. lol

I'm selling it cause I don't have the time to play with it so I can tune the car. Switching to the a9l is so much easier, cheaper, and everyone recommends it, so that's what I'm gonna do.

word of advice never take math classes in the summer. Not enough time to learn the materal.

PLUS you has to cover way to many sections in a short time.. and then the test is sucky you have to study for alot of different sections...

I'm glad I'm finished with college (Civ Engineer Major)
I know what you going thru hang in there...

Thanks man. But i thought since I would come everyday, I would see it and practice it everyday and that way it'll stick in my mind for one week, enough for the test. I really don't care in learing it, as long as I can regurjatate(sp?) enough to pass the test, I'll be fine.

Stats sucks boo koo.......

But calculus is pretty damn cool. It has so many applications. If you had a really good precal teacher, calculus is a breeze.

I don't know what your major is... but I use statistics all the time at work. Every time you need to justify an expense, predict a budget, get money for a project, etc, you will use stats. Its pretty crucial for any career in the business world.

I also use calculus' big brother, differential equations, all the time too, but if you're not going into engineering I wouldn't worry about that as much.

If you get stuck shoot me a PM. It's been a while but I did minor in math when I got my engineering degree last year. I might be able to give ya a hand!

You too vert? I hated calculus and I never use it in my job or life for that matter...

Hey, hope you are not still upset that I didn't have time or brains to diagnose your friends prob..I got one them high pressure PIA jobs that give me no time except between computer installs and forums/email..

I didn't have the time to tune mine beyond the fans, timing and egr delete and a few other settings...so I had to pay to tune. I am also sorry to hear your sn95 computer is being such a PIA. Don't feel to bad..Mine wouldn't even start after H/C/I because I crunched a (brand new) injector and didn't know it..That took weeks and $300 to figure out. Then it would BARELY run only to find out you can't just slap on a MAF sensor with matching injectors..That took 3 more weeks and $1200 FREAKING bucks to have a local guy tune/rob me...

Then I took it to Kaufman motorsports and had the tune checked out because I felt like the car didn't have enough power. Started out at 258rwhp and they bumped it to 272rwhp and 35 more ft torque..then I added a track heat intake and that really woke it up...prolly another 20 hp because it reallly pulls now...more than the difference in the last tune.

Good luck, I know its not easy but worth it when the combo comes together!

I took stats this pass semester, and normally I get a/b's, and when we got our grades I had never been so happy that I got a C in my life, especially since I got a B in my econ class where the average grade he gives out is a 2.2

Once I rolled into college I learned to be happy with a 2.0 versus a 3.5 it was in high school. I'm not willing to put in the time that's required to pull off 4.0s in all my classes, I don't know how anyone does it, maybe those richy people who have Mommy and Daddy pay for everything and they don't have to work... but that's a whole nother deal. Have fun in college, don't dread one of the best possible times in your life, or at least that's my motto.

Statistics and Calc aren't the bad ones . . . just hope you don't have to take finite element analysis and vector calc.

Thanks for the offer Adam, but I can barely understand a LIVE professor, I don't think I'll understand someone through pm's.
