We're undergraduate students whose Physics profs have decided to torture us with an insane amount of work.

Currently, we are suffering through our second semester of Quantum, our first semester of Classical, and Computational Physics. We realize this is completely out of order but like I said, we are insane. We have already taken Modern, Robotics, Quantum 1, Thermo, and Optics. We still need E/M, Math Methods, and Nuclear Physics.

We have taken up to Cal 3 and Diff Eq--as well some other math electives. We still have a couple of advance math classes to take, but we know all of the math that is required for Quantum so we'll do our best to help with the knowledge we have in return for your help.

:welcome:

Welcome and have fun!

We are trying to speak in a polite and respectful manner with each other. Furthermore we have many kids as viewers and members as well as people from around the world, who might be disturbed by using "common" colorful language. So we had to remove a corresponding adjective. Beside this, we hope you will enjoy our community.
