[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I have done well on multiple choice tests on subjects about which I know nothing.
Me, too! I remember figuring out the difference between heterozygous and homozygous based on what I knew about homesexuals and heterosexuals. Also, multiple choice tests seem to follow a pattern similar to the pattern of the Jeopardy "answers" for which I can often guess the correct "question" based on the phrasing.
I have done well on multiple choice tests on subjects about which I know nothing. I just do well on multiple choice tests.
Me too. I got a 5 on the biology AP exam. There's no way that I could have gotten a decent grade in a college intro biology class with the amount of knowledge I had; I just memorized everything I could from the review book and worked through the choices logically.
Everyone above me was posting these incredibly high scores, and I started to think... huh.
Everyone here is wicked smaht. But no one else is married to Tom, so I take my comfort in that. I was smart enough to get that dude cooking for me every night and every morning. For life!

It's a shame there's no market out there that would let me trade my SAT scores for a Tom.
I took the ACT, being west of the Mississippi and not the sort of person whose skills are often reflected well by standardized tests. They weren't that good, although the stratospheric verbal did make colleges send me stuff for a while.
Shoot, I'd TOTALLY trade the SAT scores for a Tom. Or, well, a Thomasina. :)
Mw, too meara. But I would take either/or.
Somehow, I had imagined a sound designer to be much more MATHY!
That's the part that makes me chuckle now. I actually do need a fair amount of math for the work that I do now.
I turns out I'm pretty well balanced left brain/right brain wise which I think is part of the reason I can excel in my field. I can do all of the artistic work, and the script analysis and the design work, and then seamlessly switch gears and do the tech head stuff to make all of the arty stuff sound great. I think it's also why this career is so fufulling for me, it really pulls at both sides of me.
I cried in math class, frequently; math made me cry anywhere and everywhere, except on multiple-choice aptitude tests
So. Completely. Me.
I'm firmly convinced that the only reason I passed my Trig class senior year was because I cried. And well, I had pneumonia. And I was the class award getter and failing at the last minute would have made the Superintendent's speech about how scholarly, leadershippy and citizenshippy I was kinda ring like tin.
Aaaa. It's all political.

As a costume construction persn, I laugh at non-MATHy me doing all sorts of fraction calculation in my head. It turns out i CAn do it if it really matters.
