Defending Nickolay


Today, I have no choice without defending Nickolay. Because this is a fight. This is the world of scientists and engineers. Well, now see how I defend.

Nickolay said:(3+3+3+3)/4=3, then (3/4)*100%= 75%, it means then more you did than less mark you got - I agree(3+3+3+3+3+3+3+3)/8=3, so (3/8)(# of assignments)*100%=37.5%
>>> "(3/8)(# of assignments)*100%"
How did you think about that? Can you divide a grade by # of assignments? You always have to divide with similar things. In fact, my formula was

obtained gr = (avg gr/ total gr, 4)*100%

So, for all Bs = (3/4)*100% = 75% it always comes, doesn't matter how many assignments you are taking. Nickolay had more similar faults.

Nickolay said: same will be with C=2 or A=4, but(3+3+3)/3=3, then (3/3) (average /by # of assig. (>>>same error, how can you divide a marks by a number of assignments for percentige?))*100%=100% this means A, logically A is = to C, but it is wrong logic.
>>>Grades can always be divided by grades. Think, we all LEAP students (in total, 25) have 100 million dollar. Among them you alone have 25 million. What percentige of money have you obtained?

According to you,
% of money = (25 million/# of stds, 25)*100%
= 100 million % (it's impossible)

According to me,
% of money = (25 m/ 100 m)*100%
= 25% (it is possible)

Or if you did one essay and got C then you will get an A+++++++ 'cuz one essay with C=2 by the same theory will lead to (2)/1 =2, then 2/1(sorry, it sould be (2/4))*100%=200%(50%).Let Y be a final mark in % and X is a current mark so your calculation looks like Y=(Xn/n)*100% if X1=X2=...Xn as an example you've gave. It is just a general formula for each case of # of essays,

You want a general formula, OK,
current marks X1,X2,... Xn and the avg is Xavg
So total marks, Y=(Xavg/4(not n)*100%

I don't have time to figure out a specific example but it enough prove my point.Just be careful when you are dealing with math, Honestly I don't really like math but have to deal with it some times.

I appreciate you for defending. I like that you said different things. Later, I will publish such blogs (if I find) and everybody along with Nickolay is invited to my blogs. Thanks Nickolay and everybody.

Dreams

Hi, the final exam was over. Today, I am passing a great day (I think everybody is doing so unless they have taken a credit course).

I can't say how I am feeling, it's more than words. I am feeling relaxed, no assignments, no essays, no reading or no quiz. Woooooooooooooooow!!!! awesome, awesome, super awesome. What else can I say? I can't think about anything.

Last night I slept well. I slept more than 10 hours. That's why I am feeling sound. However, I haven't dreamt. I don't know why I ain't dreaming for a long time, or I can't remember dreams after sleep. In fact, I haven't forgotten dreaming. I don't how everybody thinks about dreams.

I am going to describe some dreams that I never can forget in my entire life.


First Dream:

Once I was dreaming in the midnight. I dreamt my results came out. I got 3.00 out of 5.00. So that's terrible. (the average better grades in my country is 4.30 or higher, they can think of admitting at almost any university. There are some exceptions too. Like, for BUET, Medical, they need approximately 4.7 or 4.8). Well, after that, I think none should dream. It turns their days bad until the result is disclosed.


Obviously, I haven't done so bad, little lower than what I expected. The speciality of the dream is my mother had the same dreams too in the same night.


Another dream:





This dream was kind of like scary. I was feared by somebody. That's probably a nightmare. Ooooh! so awful. I was running in the dark. I couldn't see anything. There were nothing to hide.... then, probably at 3:00 am, I woke up.


In my culture, they said if you see something scary in your dreams, it would give you a message that you have something coming: you might be sick, you might have terrible loss in business, you might lose your job. Well, I got a terrible sick after 2 days of seeing the dream. I was in the bed for more than 2 weeks, then it took for another 2 weeks to recover. That time I could not memorise anything I studied. I felt tired after 5-10 minutes of studying.


Do I have good dreams??? Probably not.
So, from my point, there's no point to be feared from dreams. If there is any danger, then just let it go.

The Last Blog for Winter



Now It is 11:30 pm. After 30 minutes, it will be 12:00 pm and nobody will be able to blog that will be count as a blogs. Well, today I am going to talk about the last day as well as other day of classes.

Today is the last day of LEAP 4 classes. I am also optimistic about everybody passing the LEAP, if there is no major disaster.

We had the question day. We asked so many questions that make Scott a little beat freak out. Actually, we were passing the last day. That's why we were all worried about the exams.

I can forget my friends of LEAP. I get a lot of help from everybody. We have a lot of fun. Sometimes, we have discussion about our study topics. By the way, sometimes I don't know about everybody, but for myself, if I did any mistakes, please don't keep it in mind. Because if you group, it is natural to have some misunderstanding.

I cannot forget my instructors. They are really awesome. I never meet such friendly instructors in my life. They really helped me a lot. Pam helped me a lot in improving my speaking.

Now, it is time for everybody to spread out in the university. Everybody will in different faculty. It will be also hard to keep communication because we will have a lot of work as well as assignments. Then, it will be hard to e-mail. (Please, try to do that).


For communicating, I think the best way is to keep blogging and to put comments on everybody.

Life of CUET Vs the UofC

Today, I don't know what I should write about. I did not find any interesting topic to write about. I'm think I can memorise something. I am wandering if I write about my previous university because that's a real impact on me. I still could not forget about it. I don't know why I am not so excieted about the UofC. Probably, there lies a big difference in admission between two universities. Like you saw the movie, Koreans were really enjoying after getting admission. (I think you all did not see the movie, most you did)

This is the logo of my previous university.




The Website: www.cuet.ac.bd

Anyways, I am going to talk about how difference my life was.

In CUET:

After starting class I did not have so much class works. Also, I got the immigration visa; therefore, I did not study too hard.

My class generally start 8:00 am, sometimes 11:00 am. Well my class finished by 2:00 pm.

I lived in a dorm. The name of it is Sheikh Tarek Huda Hall.

The pic of it:



The building was very old - almost 30-40 years. But, the room is clear because it is a concern of the stuents. I generally, after the class, I took some rest. Then, at 4:00 pm, I used to go to playground either to play or to enjoy the matches. After that, I generally pass my time with gossiping. That continues upto 7:00 am. (Actually, in Bangladesh the evening comes at 6-7 'o clock, not vary like Calgary).

Finally, I ate my dinner at 8:00 am. That's funny!! No study still now.

After that, I might study. That depends on me. Sometimes, I pass all my nights without studying.

(Well, don't think it as a the University of Phoenix.

Had I studied seriously for the university, I would not have passed that life becaue I knew that I gonna change my university. )

Now, in the UofC:

Woooooooooooooow!! so much assignment. It does not matter whether the instructors are giving the assignements for the following days or just keep going. That's because we have tons of work from the beginning of the day with the schedule sheets. Actually, that's the real university life.

Well, I don't have to mention about that.


Now, I came to the university and then go home. After the night passes, again come to the university, again go home. Kind of jail.
Well, I am proud of the UofC because of its teaching standard. I really like the way they teach. Everything is friendly, it is easy to interact with instructors. Friends are really good.


As a whole, both university brings different kind of pleasures to me in different aspects.
Don't think the CUET is bad, it is the second best university in Bangladesh. So competition is quite high at least due to the large population. That's why it was easy for me to get admission to the UofC comparing the CUET.
