\[\large \text{Nice}\]
congratulations man!!
you are more than welcome my friend - I'm glad we were able to help you out. :)
Congrats
YOU put in the work to get the A.... congratulations...:)
Idk about Calc 3, but I hear it's like Calc 2, just added a z coordinate, but other than that I hear if you get the basic you're good... all I need to do now is Stats/Linear Algebra, and I think I'll be fine with those :).
You guys put in a lot of work for me, every day we would be doing hours worth of problems, half of which I didn't understand at first, and now I do....
I'm sure that pretty soon you'll be teaching us - and I look forward to that day. :)
I'm just glad that we helped. Please do be sure not to keep Open Study a secret; tell your classmates how you did it!
I can teach you in comp sci... just not math :p.
I may take you up on that....
I don't, when I first took Calc 2(Yeah this isn't my first time...) I told the "Math/Science" Tutoring center about it, and the dude who helped me Mr. R was interested....
The sad thing is that people don't use this site to "learn" it's more of a "Help me with my homework" kind of deal...
You can lead a horse to water... That's obviously not a problem that you can control. Thanks for mentioning OS, and for not being one of those who just drains the site's resources out of laziness :)
I even started answering questions to help my smart score, and I learned some basic tricks that I didn't know in the past....
but yea, you do see a lot of lazy peeps... They don't even say thanks or give medals, just pop questions and that's it.... Oh those finals are going to HURT :).
I have the same experience here often of learning through teaching. It's probably the biggest reason I come on here. As for the lazy people, that is a well documented problem here. I think I am a mod largely because of my opposition to giving out answers, which was once considered rather acceptable.
One time i was looking to help people and I answered a few questions for this girl who really didn't care. Next Q I just gave the answer first then was going to explan (figured they didn't even care about the explanation) and JamesJ comes in and warns me, then finishes the q LOL. Just wont help peeps who dont' care....
There should be a way to fix the issues of people who are only answer seekers...
