That's what this multi-blog conversation is going to come to, as far as I'm concerned. Why? Because on Thursday, I'm flying to New York for a planning session with my pre-medical advisor. Along with that I will be taking placement tests for chemistry and math, subjects I haven't touched for a number of years (seven and five respectively). The word "cramming" comes to mind. Still, I sat down with a math text this afternoon and jumped right back into polynomial division, so I think I'll be okay if I spend the next two days doing nothing but studying. So that's what I'm going to do.
I'm out.
Posted by ryan at May 10, 2004 08:50 PM | TrackBackI was wondering why there was a math textbook on the couch when I came home last night. I was a little buzzed, and I had the sudden panicky thought that maybe I needed to pass another math class.
Study hard. You're gonna rock it. I'll make you a sandwich.

So if you're wondering what 100/300/100 means, it belongs to the former, and I now know that 1s1 2s2 2p6 3s2 describes the distribution of electrons in magnesium, one of the alkaline earth metals.
Fun.
