[Warewolf50]

I learened how boring taking the PSAT is, but thank god that is the last time i will ever take it.

[RT pRo AuToMaG]

nothing at all.

[SpongeBobSquarePants]

I learned that I can go to a community college and get a assoicates degree in CyberCrime, and come out makeing 60 grand. Oh, I also learned that going to a college lecture is a good way to skip the PSAT.

[PyRo]

Neither the PSAT nor the SAT is a requirement, but if you plan on going to college you will need the SAT (or that other test), and the PSAT does help in giving you an idea what the SAT will be like.

[PyRo]

Hmm, thats because you like mighty mouse :)

[cris8762]

yea, i learned how to do chamfers in AutoCAD

learned that i HATE CISCO NETWORK ENGINEERING!!!

learned about F. Scott Fitzgerald

learned about Species Diversity in a ecosystem

learned about getting 2hotdogs for a dollar at the texaco by my school!

[OfficerGoat]

I leanred that there are three folks browsing porn on the company internet, including a vice president. Wonder what the CEO is going to think about that one. :D :D

I also learned that the fire alarms are really hidden cameras.... :eek: I actualy learned that a good bit ago... still freaky though.

[pbcustom98]

i learned how to program a palm pilot to count from 100 down to 0, and below...by ones/tens making a noise on each number.

[gamarada717]

With everyone talking about the PSATs and stuff, I'd like to state that 2 years ago, I took the ACT and made a 19. I think that's pretty darn good for a 12 year old.

Anyways, today I learned that....well, was told that if you could travel at the speed of light and not be killed by the g-force or anything, that you wouldn't age. And that if you could travel faster than the speed of light, that you would go back in time. He said that we didn't have to class time to explain it to me, so we just went on. I don't understand how this would work. Even if you are traveling real fast, time would still pass. Some science person explain this to me.

[jwren00]

I dont have time to explain it here, it would take too long, but I bet your teacher will explain a simplified version of Einstein's theory of relativity to you in the next class and then you will understand.

It's a very cool thing. For example, fighter pilots age slower than people that don't fly (although the difference is VERY minute), and time stops on the edge of a black hole. Ask him to talk about black wholes, i learned a lot about them in my astronomy and physics classes in college.

[CoFFeY[NiTrO]]

I didn't learn anything :(

[trevorjk]

honestly today i learned nothing but yesterday oh man that was my day to learn

[robertjuric]

Is it to late for me to chime in?

I guess this is from Tuesday, the 21, I took the PSAT that morning, but we had the day off for Fall Holiday(and the day before)!!

But right now we are learning, electron configuration in chem, proofs in geometry, and adolescense in sociology.

electron configuration stuff is fun.....not. seriously though I like chemistry. Im thinking of changing the degree Id like to get from Computer Science to Chemical Engineering(the highest paid engineers to!!!)
