  1. I once watched some random documentary of high school students enrolling in universities in China. It's crazy how disciplined and motivated they are. They go to school early in the morning and come back at night, then do lots of homework, late into the night, and repeat that process over and over again. Their dedication and discipline is amazing, well most of them. So I think that it has a lot to do with parents raising them up in a strict environment, in which a high education is most valued.
  2. Does anyone know websites that have problems/practice questions regarding Mendel's Laws at the high school level? Thanks.
  3. Thanks Everyone ! I finally made a decision, though, I'm going to go for medicine. Thanks everyone.
  4. Currently reading State of Fear by Michael Crichton, not bad so far. Finished Andromeda Strain by Chrichton it was an ok book, not the greatest.
  5. Hi guys, I'm wondering what career path I should go for engineering or medicine. Now I know it isn't reccomended to ask on the forums about which field to get into, but, I need some guidance. I both like engineering and medicine equally. Which jobs would have better job oppurtunities for me? Comparison of Salaries? Etc. I'm nearing to a time in life, where I have to decide what career path to follow. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
  6. So here's a grade 11 physics question my teacher showed to the class with us. John is studying on a cliff 250m high. He throws a rock HORIZONTALLY with an initial velocity of 12.0 m/s (from his height). a) How long did it take the rock to hit the ground below? My teacher showed us on the board: D = V + 1/2 a (t)(squared) then he went on to plugging the numbers into the equation: 250 = 0 + 1/2 (9.8) (t)2 then he got: 7.1s = t I'm confused on how he got 7.1s? Anyone know what he did? I'm worried because there is a homework question similar to what he did. But it has a horizontal component to it, and not a vertical. A bullet is shot horizontally from a gun. If the bullet's speed exiting the muzzle is 325 m/s and the height of the gun above the ground is 2.0m a) how long was the bullet in the air? So from this question I see it is looking for Time. I as well have my velocity which is 325. I'm very confused and stuck on what to do after that. Could anyone try to help me on this one? Sorry if it seems very basic and stupid to you guys. Thanks
  7. Some of my fav books are: 1984 by George Orwell, Stephen King's IT, and basically any book by Dan Brown.
  8. Currently reading Duma Key by Stephen King. Pretty cool book.
  9. Hey. I'm obviously a new user here, currently in grade 11. That means I don't have a lot of knowledge about science but hopefully I may learn a couple new things on this site.
