Look What I found...

Ok so Caltech has the most asinine attitude about wanting me to go through and tell them all about my educational history (CX - would you remember who wrote the book you used for your freshman engineering physics course? Yeah, I don't either). It's kinda nuts. But fun, yay! 
. In looking for all this information, I ran across something interesting from my fluids 1 class.
Check this out... We did one of those peer eval things who wrote what % and everybody gave me 75. There were 4 people.
I was pretty proud of this cuz I put a LOT of work into it. I was one of 2 students out of 74 that got 100% on the project. Only reason I'm bragging about it is because I got a B in the course so it's proof to me that I know fluid mechanics better than that
Oh, and the whole 75% thing... I wrote the entire report but the other members did some research. It didn't turn out to be part of our presentation but they went to the zoo and watched the penguins diving and took video and we slowed it down and used it to analyze their wake, how they angle, how they dive, their lift generating capabilities, etc.
--I take that back. I don't think I wrote the section "Applications in Modern Engineering" because it sounds like crap

I'm the eleventh to download. I haven't been on the board for a while and just noticed this a minute ago.
