Several pieces of academic news

[kyrasantae]

Since I haven't posted much about what I'm doing academically for a bit, I'll provide an update.

I registered for ENGG 401 (Engineering Economics and Finance) and CHE 243 (Thermodynamics) for the summer. I decided to do thermo again because I was sure I had failed it, it was horrible.

Originally I wanted to take ENGG 310 for my economics component (it's basically the same as 401 but with less finance stuff), but only 401 was offered during the summer. However, this means that I can retake CIV E 270 in the fall term!

All of my grades are finally in. Some surprises await you. Here's the requisite nifty HTML table summary, with a copy again of Fall term grades for reference:

Fall 2005
Course Code	Course Name	Grade	Eng. Course Units	Grade Points
CHEM 261	Organic Chemistry I	B	4.5	13.50
CIV E 270	Mechanics of Deformable Bodies I	F	4.5	0.00
E E 239	Fundamentals of Electrical Engineering	D+	3.8	4.94
MAT E 252	Materials Science II	C+	3.8	8.74
MATH 209	Calculus III	C	3.5	7.00
PHIL 101	Introduction to Philosophy: Values and Society	B	3.0	9.00
		Total	23.1	43.18
			Term GPA	1.9

Winter 2006
Course Code	Course Name	Grade	Eng. Course Units	Grade Points
CH E 243	Engineering Thermodynamics	C	3.5	7.00
CME 265	Process Analysis	B	4.5	13.50
ENGL 199	Essentials of Writing for Engineering Students	B+	3.0	9.90
MAT E 256	Materials Engineering	B-	4.3	11.61
MATH 201	Differential Equations	D	3.5	3.50
SOC 366	People in Industry	C+	3.0	6.90
		Total	21.8	52.41
			Term GPA	2.4

Course descriptions for the above are here.

That's right. Get that thermo. I'm completely speechless. You're technically not allowed to take a course again if you've passed it, so I can drop it now.

Meanwhile, here are the timetables for next year (yet again).
