Final Exam *SECRET WEAPON*

Wish me luck, guys. I've got Calc II this afternoon.
BUT... My secret weapon is ready.
Hopefully a little flatulence will sway the grade curve in my favor!

I don't see how flatulence is gonna help you but good luck. Small, concealed pieces of paper with tiny notes on them are much better secret weapons (not that I would know anything about cheating).

if you have a TI-8* then just write programs filled with notes. unless you have some jackass teacher who will erase your calculator memory before the exam.

that's why you have 2 calculators, 1 that he erases, then 1 that you swap out when he's not looking

Yep, that's how I made it through Calc I & II.

the flatulence is not to increase my grade, but to bring down those around me so that I can rise above the curve.

I would have a C in Calc 2 if I could have figured out the last part, the infinite series. The final exam was solely infinite series related stuff. Anyway, I'll be retaking it, so thanks for the tip on the calculator! At least it will replace the old grade and bump up the GPA. I'll be writing my notes for the tests in there from now on.... So how do I do it?

Shit man, series are the easiest part!
all you do is mix a few simple rules (LCT, DCT, Ratio Test, Integral Test, Absolute Convergence Test, and Alternating Series Test) with a little algebra.
That said, yeah this is my second time around the block with this class.

Grading curves are fucking stupid! I always get like 90+% and ruin the curve for everyone else.
If you are a teacher and most people fail your tests, you shouldn't adjust the score values to fit a statistical model, you should rewrite your fucking tests so that people can understand them!
I'm gonna start taking calc I in the fall for the first time. I've spent the past two years learning trig and polynomial equations in both highschool and college. I think I'm ready to move on.
