College/Sixth-form is 'school' from ages 16-18

well, it's just more math in the simplest terms haha

and i meant the progression from how its structured here, from calc 1, 2, 3, differential equations, and beyond

The point I'm making is that if you enjoy maths then you have a good chance of enjoying university maths, but it's harder to make the comparison than in most other STEM subjects.

Yeah no idea what the progression in US is

ah ok, we have kindergarten, then grades 1-12 typically

and 8-12 is high school, most in 12 are 18 or or will be 18

what do you mean about comparison to STEM subjects?

If you enjoy Physics at school there's a good chance you'll enjoy Physics at university, if you are university material.

If you enjoy Maths at school then you'll probably enjoy Physics or most STEM subjects but Maths is less likely. Maths has a really poor retention and satisfaction rate and that's because it's a *very* different game to school, where you're mostly just learning maths to help with the sciences.

i hate physics, had to take 5 semesters of it though

That's not really what I meant

what did you mean then

See the problem here is you have a very different outlook on this since you don't specialise like we do

wasn't familiar with your acronym for STEM, had to look it up, had me confused for a second

what do you mean we don't specialize?

Yeah the divide is getting in the way a bit

i've spent years studying a very specialized curriculum

This is a little tiresome, sorry, what I was saying applies to UK people I don't know much about the US system

I've got stuff to do

cheers

GTKRWN!!!

Oops... wrong chat

>There aren't any definitions for GTKRWN yet.

good

sounds better

lol

*sigh* it was for an Iron March friend.

@SDifference - would you like a definition?

Submit it to Urban Dictionary

That sounds like a dangerous thing to do. I'm going to do it.
