I have a CS and MS in CompSci, and start Dental School this August. A CS degree is no easy path; in most cases you don't even get the extra credits for all of your lab time, unlike most Sci classes. I love CS too, (in fact I am a CS prof!) and the curriculum does an outstanding job of teaching...

How could someone go through 17 years of schooling and not know how to answer this in basic terms?:eek:

Wow, living in Indiana must be very affordable!. My real estate taxes alone are $8000 per year. Guess I'll have to sell the house and invest in a cardboard box for the kids! :eek: +pissed+

The answer probably will be a 'nice' answer (like 100:100, 2/3:1/3, 75%:25%) so guess&try would probably work well. If you want to calculate, it's not that hard... You are looking for the avg price of 200# to be .40/lb: .36 J + .52 L = .40 J=lbs jawbreakers, L=lbs lollypops...

croco had 400mg*1KG/1000000mg but there are only 1000mg in a KG, so change his answer accordingly, and it matches the book. His math and logic help should be very clear though.

These ARBITRARY classifications are killing me. What exactly is an "Asian", a "White", or an "African American"? A person born in Turkey or Russia could have been born in Europe or Asia, though "officially" the countries are both in Asia. However, I doubt anyone here would consider either one...

Question 57 on the 2004 AADSAS app asks you to indicate your ethnic id from a choice list of 7 (although choice 6 is 'Do not wish to report'). They only allow ONE choice. What does a person indicate as their 'ethnic id' if they are "part white", "part black", AND also "part...

Must be nice (in Fla) to have avg. compensation be greater than the cost of living (COL)!!! Here in NJ, and NY, the website shows that even general dentists are living BELOW the area COL! Either this is hog-wash, or I need to specialize, or perhaps I could do better on welfare and get free...

DO you recall exactly how the second math problem was worded? Did the problem refer to the quadrant of each? +pissed+

The answer to the colored ball question, in terms used by those of us blessed in math: (using combinatorial notations) (8) (21) (2) (0) ---------- = 0.0689655 (29) (2) But the simple math way to do it is to say of 29 total balls, I can pull one of 8 blue balls; then, of 28 total...

I'm not applying to DDS school for another year, but I am looking at all of the logistics now. Is there anyone who is currently going to UMDNJ, or has taken a lengthly tour/visit? I'd like to get some input on the +/- of the school as well as it's surrounding area. I'm in NJ now so I am...

I am not familiar with all of the major hurdles that must be jumped from the time one enters as a D1 until one is practicing. Obviously the first two are the DAT and the interview. 1. What are the other major hurdles, and when do they occur? 2. Is there any dependency between the state your...
