I'm currently undergrad but eventually I'm going for my PhD.
Ugh. Takes forever. Especially with me sucking so much at math.

Yes! Go us! :qh:

Do you know what you want to study/do after getting your PhD?
Hm... what math classes do you have to take? I thought statistics was the only important math for psych majors?


I think you are short on Sparrow Eggs but my next quest will definitely help you cover it. :qwhee:

I'm going to be a psychiatrist.
Well I'm doing algebra right now.
I don't think I'll have a problem with statistics, I've always been pretty good at that. It is pretty important. lol.

I still need 40 eggs. We are just breezing through these quests. lol.

Hm, I guess is the professor not that great? I find that lots of math classes that should be simple usually are harder because of the teacher. D:

Luckily, there is also a lot of software now to help you do the statistics, so you don't need to do it by hand! :D


Yeah, I have 3 left. >>b Now I need 58 x Poison and 1 x Red Candle.

I don't know how she is, she explains some of the stuff pretty well. The computer does most of the teaching and it often either skips steps or adds a lot of extra ones. It's very annoying.

True that. Most of this stuff I'm learning I really can not think of any conventional use for it. Oh well. I need the grade to move up.

K. I got ya.

What. Computer teaching you math? :qwhee: What is this, lol. I find the internet to be helpful for most things. There are lots of websites now which can teach you almost anything. :D

Hm, I think conceptually, algebra is useful in the sense of trying to understand and find unknowns. It's just that teachers haven't been taught to put them in useful contexts so it becomes difficult for students to apply it. American education system is such trash orz


Thanks! You must have so many prevalents to make pills with now. xD;


EDIT//I need 10 x Goblin Ear and 1 x Red Candle, so whenever you get your nex quest, I can help our with those materials. c:

It's a program. It just shows you crappy videos from a million years ago.
It's how all of my math classes at this school have been taught. The teachers have barely done anything. Easiest job evar.

Well regular basic algebra is totally useful. But this stuff is insane. I hate it so much.

It do. Merica sucks. I wish I was raised in Europe or Japan. I hear most countries in Europe have good school systems. And Japan might be intense but those kids learn shit. lol.

Indeed!

Last one for me!
39 x Blue Guppy
72 x Old Boot

Oh maaaaaaaan, if you're going to watch videos, at least watch good ones. D: There are a million of them for stuff like algebra. I would recommend Khan Academy. I know there are some on Youtube too, but I preferr actual webpages to videos for learning, so I can't give you any recommendations. :<

What kind of algebra are you learning? o__o


I want to move to Finland or Denmark. Or one of those countries. They have good education systems and decent work-life standards. Unlike America which thinks that overworking your employees without good pay is more productive for business DESPITE scientific evidence against that. Sometimes I wonder why people want to move here....

EDIT//Yes! One more quest left! 27 x Pencil, 20 x Poison.

58 boots left to get and then I'm done. Yay!



Well these ones are required. It's stupid.
Thanks for the attempt at helping.

It's college algebra. Right now it's stupidity over radicals and radicates and annoying the hell out of me.

For reals.

America gets great hype but it's really gone significantly down hill. The stupid Republicans are blocking everyone's attempts at making life better.

I guess you missed my edit, but I need 27 x Pencil and 20 x Poison. Then I'll be done! 8D I can cover your boots. :mcwink:


Ooooh, yes radicals. Nowadays, you can just have calculator do it so I'm not sure what the hype is over those. :o I mean, I guess as a engineer you may not need to use it? /sigh I may be able to help depending on what it is. Is there a specific question that's annoying?

If Bernie doesn't win, my friends are voting for Trump so that anarchy happens. Or something different, lol.
