Oh, I SO don't think so - it conflicts with my nerd score:

Enjoying a taste of fall early this weekend - it's rainy, but cool enough to open the windows and air out a little.

About to finish my partlet and possibly fence this afternoon.

Yesterday blissfully vegged with D. watching cheesy horror films - "Abbot and Costello Meet Dracula" and "Van Helsing" (yes, I think that qualifies as cheez).

Got my results yesterday. I had decided not to get upset even if they put me in remedial algebra, so I had few expectations going in.

I did better than the school expected, about what I'd hoped, but worse than I'd wished for. The advisor recommends auditing intermediate algebra (he says I should do well at, being a computer professional [and the fact that I took college algebra undergrad - I'll be damned if I pay for it again!]) and then taking precalc and calculus for credit.

I'm thinking it will be best to save the math for the winter while taking a non-prerequisite-required class at UMUC. Pro: less going on in the winter, cold weather = more incentive to stay inside and study. Con: I'm often more lethargic in the winter. Perhaps I'll just lay in a good supply of Mayorga to see me through ;)

So, tentative plan of attack:

    Fall '05: stats class; review algebra & get book in advance.

    winter '05-6: computer course + audit intermed algebra; get calc books in advance

    spring '06: precalc (and another computer course? depends on how I survive the winter); see if work will cover because it's a prerequisite for a programming course


All of this is dependent, of course, on how much of an outside life I want to have and how much/whether I plan to sleep :P
