Introduction to Biotechnology
Studio can become a second home for you, especially towards the tail end of each semester as everyone is rushing to wrap up final projects. Like others have said, there may be nights where you may be better off sleeping in studio or need to pull an all-nighter. Studio culture is definitely fun, though; folks tend to find some interesting ways to reduce stress.
For 2D software, use AutoCAD. You can get a free educational license for all Autodesk software and they are the industry standard. I used Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop to set up final plot sheets and to pretty up 2D drawings / renderings.
For 3D software, SketchUp is free and stupidly simple. I used Kerkythea as my render engine (it's free but is a little outdated). Once you move on to more complex projects, I'd recommend Rhinoceros3D with V-Ray. Familiarizing yourself with Revit is also great for future employment.
Some model-making tips that I wish I'd known in my first year: 123 Blocks are a gift from the gods, spray accelerant for super glue is amazing, and hot glue is great if you can hide it from your professor / critics.
Recommend getting a book New Rules On Lifting and Mens Health Big Book Of Exercises.
NROL has a pretty solid program made by Alwyn Cosgrove. The big book is a good reference for movements.
Introduction to Algorithms, 3rd Edition (MIT Press) https://www.amazon.com/dp/0262033844/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_89sSAbDN1RQ5V
That's probably the best book for data structures and algorithms out there. It's somewhat pricey but I use it all the time even for work things. You can probably find a free PDF with some digging. Look at the chapters in the Data Structures section particularly the elementary structure and hash map. The trees aren't covered in this course I believe.
Yeah I couldn't find it either now I guess it's the bookstore for me lol. I also need another one here's the amazon link for it https://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Biotechnology-3rd-William-Thieman/dp/0321766113
Can I please get a pdf file of this book? It's for my Africa in Film class.

It depends on the professor. Some professors don't allow you to use a calculator. Some allow you to use one as long as it's not a graphing calculator. Some allow you to use any.
Do yourself a big favor, though, and learn to use a RPN calculator. Once you learn it, you'll never want to use another calculator again. You'll be solving problems in a fraction of the time it takes everyone else. http://www.amazon.com/HP-F2215AA-ABA-Scientific-Calculator/dp/B000TDRHG8/
This is the closest I could find to it Graduation Honor Cord Three-color Braided Grad Days (black white red) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07B3JGJDJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_eVM8AbEAB0E56
> Did she make the exams herself
I would think so, during the exams, she had typos in the problems. She announced this during the exams. The questions did look like problems out of a textbook though. So I wouldn't worry about any obscure questions thrown in the exam.
>Are the homework questions out of the textbook.
Yes. Also worth noting, the textbook she uses is very terrible. It has a really, really low rating on amazon. If you do end up taking her class, it's not worth buying. A LOT of the students had PDF forms of the textbook. If you want a textbook to learn statistics, seek elsewhere because the textbook itself has a lot of errors in it and badly composed.
>Was the class heavily curved
According to some students, they had to pressure her into curving. Not sure as of yet, though. She's still grading.
>Are the exams free response
The first 2 exams did not have free response questions. The final did, 3-4 questions. Some of the Free response questions had like 1-4 parts.
If you have any more questions feel free to ask.
Here's the amazon link to the textbook she uses: https://www.amazon.com/Applied-Statistics-Probability-Engineers-Montgomery/dp/1118539710
> Sedlack, R. P., Shwom, B. L., Keller, K. P. Module 4: Graphics and Visual Communication for Managers. Managerial Communication
No luck, but it's on Amazon for ~$7-15: https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/0324161786/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&condition=used
Access probably refers to access codes. Some courses require access codes to let you do homework online. You can either get the code with a new copy of the textbook or separately online off of the publisher's website. Out of the classes you listed, I've only taken Chem 1331, which didn't need one. I'd wait to see if your courses actually need them before buying them though.
As far as the textbooks go, I've only had one course where a physical copy was required, and that was because the tests were open book. PDFs work well if the textbook isn't used much for the class, but I personally prefer physical copes of my most used books.
One trick is to buy one edition older than the required text. Take chemistry for example. You guys need to get the 6th edition of Silberberg's Chemistry book I presume. Instead, you can get a used 5th edition book (that was actually the required text when I took the course) starting at $15 on Amazon.
Usually you can get away with getting an older version of the textbook with out a problem. It should be fine for Chem, but you can double check with your other professors as well.
I carried this Smith and Wesson M&P Tactical on a daily basis. Never had a problem, even when I was searched by campus pd. Carried one all through college
It's not necessarily harder than general chemistry, it is just a lot different. More about recognizing patterns and making predictions, with almost nothing involving numerical problems. My suggestion is to read and do the problems in the book "Pushing Electrons" (https://www.amazon.com/Pushing-Electrons-Daniel-P-Weeks/dp/1133951880/ref=dp_ob_title_bk) before starting organic chemistry. The basics of organic chemistry are not really covered in UH general chemistry, so this book will help you get into the right mindset for organic chemistry before you start.
Most of the comments here say that the book is not worth getting. I haven't taken the class yet (just a first-year), so I got it.
It's $15 to rent on Amazon. Here's the link
Might I suggest the following:
