When I had a regular number pad phone that I had to use T9 on I could type out text messages while driving without problems. I have an Xperia X1 now and I type a lot slower even though it has a full qwerty keyboard =/

Physics I Mechanics was really easy, just basically memorize the formulas and know when to use them. Physics II Electricity and Magnetism is a bitch though.

My digital systems professor encourages the students to point out mistakes on his powerpoints, for every mistake we find, he'll add 1 extra point to their next exam grade

I go to UT Dallas, so we follow the UT system of grading.

If high 80s is an A-, which is 3.67. Then anything 90 and above is an A/A+ (4.0)? Then there is no point in aiming for anything higher than 90.
As for exceptions, you might be right, but you never know if you don't try. I mean if you end up at say 92.3, borderline between an A- and an A, wouldn't you want to try and see if its possible to get it bumped a little? If it works out you'll end up having an A, if not, you still get an A-. Might as well give it a shot.

Usually 90-92 is an A-, 93-97 is an A, so if you get a 92.75 it should round up to a 93. Talk to your professor though, they will help you out if you need an extra point for a higher letter grade.

But Taylor told the Western Morning News she had subsequently hired an online private detective to track his activities.

ROFL?

Whether or not you believe her, Spears claims she wanted the money so she could help others in need. 

Haha what bullshit, that dumb bitch can't even admit she did it out of greed.

Switched Prof and Tech. Communication with Linear Algebra so my classes wouldn't all be clumped together. That way I can have time in between to study or something. So double the fun -_-

Unless if you're a software engineering major here, its not a required course for them, but is for every other engineering, wtf. There was a section on differential equations in my calc 2 class earlier this year but to think it has an entire course on it..
But it's a pre-requisite for so many other classes like Advanced Engineering Math and Electrical Network Analysis so theres no way I can get around it =/

After I finish the hist and govt I'll be done with my core curriculum so it'll be all courses for my major after that
Diff equations is going to suck.... so is physics.
