I just started crying, because i had to laugh so much. I have an exam in 2.5h about state and parameter estimation, and i feel like that guy.
I did not realize pi2=g
Wow. I didn't realize that it's actually a pretty good approximation!
Also important: pi is a unit-less quantity, whereas g has units m/s^^2 . Don’t forget the units.

As an engineering student, I would be more embarrassed of my calculator history being publicized than my internet history being publicized
I know I am like 8+7 what's that? Its 16 but that's 8*2 ok so it must be one less than 16 then 15 fuck i must be wrong, checks with the calculator. Ah I was right, proceeds to write 8 as answer.
Absolutely XD
Especially in exams where you double check your calculations
hmmm 2+2 i know thats four but… WHAT IF IT CHANGED? better check just in case
@@estergrant6713 yep 🤣
Wai- you guys get to use calculator ?
Being an engineering student I can confirm that "if I got 8/10 in this question then I can make up some BS to get 2/10 in another question and I'll be golden" is basically our holy mantra
Yo I’m an engineering student too and that’s high key facts no lie
There is no better feeling than answering half of the exam and getting the exact grade you were aiming for. For me it’s the equivalent of getting an A.
Same here
@@albertcoll9 this is exactly an A. Not from the societys viewpoint but in your world which is the only world that really counts for you
@@albertcoll9 i did that through most my academic career, tried being a minimalist but it kept ramping up, real early too, 4th grade, i now regret it as i somehow just did not fail for 4 years with straight A, i managed to be doing college prep by 8th grade as i had completed my requirements for highschool and still hadnt taken a step in one. now what did i do with these, play the silver market, accidentally predict us response to the covid with schools in February 2020 on a friday and it happens by mondays closings, and generally keep saying stuff with seemingly half the detail and getting it right on predictions.
"The solution is trivial and left as an exercise to the grader"
Made me laugh hard in real life
yeah that part was underrated
These damn course books and their prerequisites...
I repeated that sentence word for word on my exam on how my professor had stated in the lecture notes that the solution was 'trivial'. Professor didn't like it but because that's what he wrote in his own lecture notes, he still game me the point lol.
@@AbhilekhPandey The professor didn’t like it because that is for actual mathematicians and you as an engineer, how could you dare to think that you could respond like that? Yet s/he is required to teach you, who is ignoring about all of that nuance in mathematics because of how the education system works.
I’m not trying to be mean. I am mathematician by education. So providing an alternative viewpoint of hull think might be giving a little bit of a humorous edge. (Even though these days I am scientist and work with a lot of engineers.)
trivial For the solution check different equations sides 56-57
When he says "can you repeat everything you said in the past 8 weeks I didn't catch that" I felt that
IKR

And so the professor repeats 8 weeks of study verbatim. Now you *must* understand it, right?
@@mpldr_ HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
no
Study guide time
Engineer's goal: maximize not the grade, but the grade-effort ratio 😆
Facts this makes me wanna be an engineer even more
Is no one going to mention that with zero effort he will maximize his grade-effort ratio by dividing by zero? (assume there will be curve on the test which is greater than zero, and that we working in the projective real line where division by zero is well defined thus making the ratio infinite)
Benjamin Thoburn quit overthinking
@@Auden. Yeah, I think he meant "what topics should I study/focus on first in order to get the most out of my study time while also getting at least a minimum grade" or something
I was laughing out loud at this point, it's so ME to engineer a 75 in the class out of 60 in the exam!
This shit hit home. At one point I spent like hours creating this incredibly rich and complicated excel spreadsheet that calculated my optimistic and realstic grades on the basis of the assignments I have submited in a given time in regards to the whole year. I was supposed to be studying for an exam at that point, but I went "nah, lemme just create this monstrosity of a spreadsheet"
dang I wish I had that spreadsheet 9 years ago
I never did the spreadsheets but I ran loads of "quick" calcs. My friends' brains exploded when I said, "I'm not studying for that exam. I'd need a 26.5% to drop to a C and a 106% to get an A. Soooo, I'm getting a B in this class."
@@ashleyn.9166 lol I do the exact same thing
yeah and that experience making the spreadsheet will serve you better once you graduate than that exam ever could hope to...
Same. Every semester I add all the assignments/ tests etc for each course and change projected to actual as they get graded. For whatever reason its helped me stay focused.
“Ok we are trying to maximize the final grade to effort ratio”
That sentence just about summed up my entire college experience.
Absolutely. Getting a B.S. in any engineering discipline requires prioritizing classes based on difficulty vs. the credit hours of the particular class. Always was a juggling act.
Spot on!
A mathematician, a physicist, and an engineer were all given a red rubber ball and told to find the volume.
The mathematician carefully measured the diameter and evaluated a triple integral.
The physicist filled a beaker with water, put the ball in the water, and measured the total displacement.
The engineer looked up the model and serial numbers in his red-rubber-ball table.
Nice
The mathematician would've just looked at the diameter and said "hey there's a solution" and then leave lol
Another popular option is when you are too lazy to integrate - say "I'm leaving the solution in quadratures".
A mathematician wouldn't be able to solve it. They'll be more interested in proving that the ball has no sides.
@@MudahnyaFizik But a ball obviously a has two sides. It has an inside and an outside. Check mate math

2:55 I feel called out. This is exactly what I’ve been doing back since 5th grade, but instead of passing I go for the lowest possible A. I didn’t even know I wanted to go into engineering until middle of high school

Yo I do the same thing
@@ajsap8160 Sounds stupid but same story for me. I only thought of studying maths or physics as the options. Will probably study engineering in grad school.
Unrealistic, I can actually understand the professor through his accent.
I think that he's pretty clear for the most part and can usually infer the missing bits if I somehow can't make it out. Same goes for his videos.
The professor doesn’t sound like a person from Russia that just learnt English last week. Unrealistic
I just want everyone to know that I am the 420th like. Relevant because with the power of weed suddenly accents become intelligible. Don't ask me why, it just happens.
@@Silent. he's 99% german. I'm from Germany and here we have this accent.

I laughed so fucking hard on this one. I had to pause the video.
Yeah, that was absolutely golden!
Actually DED from laughter
I am blown away at how generic the experience of studying engineering is. I finished studying almost a decade ago and I still remember at the beginning of every exam going through the whole thing, choosing the questions that I felt confident answering, and doing a quick marks calculation to see how to maximize the points/time ratio. Then getting stuck with one question halfway through, switching to a different one, restarting the question at a later stage.
Im doing engineering right now, nothing has changed 😂
things like this dont tend to change, you could go back a hundred years and it'd be the same.
Lmfao what the fuck I just had my first exam and did the exact same thing
2:45 after getting my degree, this is so spot on. I had a friend, don’t know how he graduated, but the most effort I had ever seen him put into something was this really well made spreadsheet to see how poorly he could do on the final to pass the class and walk at graduation. The final was only a couple days away and he hadn’t even started reviewing material.
Me: "When will we ever use this in life?"
Professor: "Tomorrow. For the pop quiz that's worth 20% of your grade."

Surprisingly accurate. I hated proofs. I debated being a math major, but once I took proofs I knew I made the right call going into engineering. I actually spent more time asking my engineering professors for applications since very few of my EE professors gave them. I remember my controls classes were particularly bad about that. My methods class was even worse about it. I struggled a lot in those classes for that reason.
Does engineering not require math?
@@DeathnoteBB Yes, but not proofs.
@@DeathnoteBB Engineering school requires math. Calculus, and NO way around that. However, practical day-to-day engineering involves mabye 5% of the mat we ever learn.
"Proof by calculator" hurt me on an emotional level

@@rickycook1539 You can use either 3.14 or 22/7. It just depends on the usability. Generally, 3.14 is used for all numbers, except for multiples of 7 which uses 22/7.
Anyways, that's what I was taught in school.
One day, two engineers were tasked with attaching wires to some poles. They thought to measure the height of all the poles and hence calculate the estimated total length of wire required by calculating the curves. They kept thinking for much time while standing below the pole but couldn't come up with a decent idea; they thought about measuring the angle, but the surrounding terrain was not smooth, they thought of using a ladder, but it couldn't be procured in the middle of nowhere, they thought of tying a stone to a rope and throwing it upwards, but realized that it would be very inaccurate. They were out of ideas.
A mechanic happened to be passing by, and seeing the confused faces of those two engineers, he decided to help them. He enquired about the problem and promptly unscrewed the pole from the base, laid it down, measured it, and screwed it back. He told result to the engineers and bid them farewell.
Engineer 1 : "What the hell did he just do?"
Engineer 2 : "Yes, what an absolute fool! He had to calculate the *height* , not the *length* ."
You know what's even worse than opening a test and not recognising anything. Recognising everything but not being quite able to get it. In thermodynamic this demoralised me so much I actually tried to calculate the heat absorbed by the system during an adiabatic process using the first law. When I succeeded and got a zero I gave myself the biggest facepalm of my life (thankfully I passed the test)
This has got to be the best story I've ever read on the internet

Hussein Naji worst case scenario, just about everything you learn is exercise for your critical thinking skills.
@@chrisjfox8715 That was ultimately the conclusion my physics professor gave me, that it was more about learning to think through and understand how to solve problems more than committing any particular equations to memory, but I would argue that the process of learning itself is greatly improved by knowing what the equations are supposed to do. When you have some idea how the answer is supposed to look, you can get to it more readily (for better or worse).
@@NotHPotter agreed but the bulk of my point is that what you end up doing for a living is almost certainly not going to directly make use of every single thing you learn in school, and most importantly, many of the problems you solve in the real world will be so unique to your projects and unprecedented that you'll have to analyze how to somewhat derive new methods anyway.
But again, I agree with you. Knowing applications as you learn helps the material stick...I think one of my main issue are the people that use not knowing a concept's purpose as an excuse to not try. The exercise is still incredibly beneficial towards the development of your analytical skills, no matter what you go on to do.
@@chrisjfox8715 For sure, and that's why I caveated my comment with "for better or worse". On the one hand, I realize that many solutions will require finding an answer that is hard to anticipate (often), so knowing how the answer should look isn't entirely realistic, but at the same time the "take this test in a vacuum" approach is also completely artificial, as the best problem solvers are often the ones who know how to best seek out help and make use of available resources.
Admittedly, at this point we're discussing some of the more complicated aspects of education as a whole, but it doesn't change the fact that I spent the better part of the last few months begging (along with another few people in my class) my linear algebra instructor to give us some kind of context for the eigen-nonsense and matrix multiplication he kept making us do. Go figure, this channel dropped a video about what it all means a day after the final.

On god bro
A video has never described my college life so well.
Homework was extra credit for my calculus class. So i only ever touched the parts where I was confused, until i understood it, my papers would end up looking like some crazy person drawing scribbles. The
Professor always bashed on the low test scores because of the correlation of no homework and low test scores (he showed an anonymous graph of the class test scores). Of course I was the one that always passed the test even though I turned in no HW. So there was always a stray dot in the graph. I was actually proud of myself for being such an under achievier.
Where the fuck did you go? My school has an overreliance on homework making it worth 30% of the final grade and christ it is the most tedious boring shit that makes me not want to do the math instead of helping me memorize it, even when I don't need to...
I remember in my pure math courses, there was often some guy asking what the applications were. He filled me with the superiority and hubris I needed to succeed.

My math classes always hated me, son of an engineer and an accountant...math is in my blood as is efficient use of time. I'd sleep in class, do no homework, ace the tests without studying completely destroying the curve for everyone else on the tests. Calculus and advanced calc included. Fun times.
I have never taken a test without even knowing a single answer.
But there was one time I went to a test not even knowing the chapter names, I hated the class, the professor and the material so much I ignored it all.

Calculating how much you need for a certain grade - oh, the memories!
Pretty sure I did this more than actually studying

I thought I was the only one these things happened too, good to see other Engineering students go through the same exact things.
This made me feel grateful to have attended a tech uni who had had the wisdom to teach “service”/non-majors’ versions and math versions of courses like calculus, linear algebra and differential equations. Even though this meant we had to suffer harsher grading (e.g., math dept never curved its own majors but did the non-majors every other year; presumably pile-ups of failing students had to be cleared to avoid graduation delays in other departments) I realise now it was still a good idea to separate us in all courses. Especially as a math major who even within math had a more obscure “pure math” tastes, I reckon I may have had to skip classes or lost my mind..

So I check the law and wrote: " The law ask for an engener to calculate it and prohibided everyone else to do it.

My fondest memories of first year math was giving up on the last question 5 minutes before the end of the exam and looking around the room at either 1) students crying 2) students flipping through blank pages
Yeah, for college prep school student, cal 1 and 2 was like this. Then, calc 3 and 4 came...
Was taking a strength of materials class, thought I was struggling, looked around and saw people with their heads down, crying etc, and I smiled…..curve is coming
I remember that during an statistics 2 exam a girl just started crying sitting right behind me. The teacher gave her water and took her out of the classroom. I think she was failing the class for the 2nd time. That was absolutely TERRIFYING, after that I aced that class and finished with the highest grade of the class for the first and last time as Any respectable engineer should.
Calc 2 was me and 10 other people in the class still "taking" (suffering) the final 2 hours after it was supposed to be over because the professor had a free period and let us keep going.
I wanted to just drop dead so I could stop looking at the paper. At least it was obvious that everyone spending 3.5 hours on a 1.5 hour exam were all in the same boat.
@@joaquin2473 congrats on destroying the curve and that girl's future at the same time.
you hit the NAIL on the minimalist one LOL, i showed my friends this vid and they saw me in it XD
I loved can You repeat everything You said in last 8 weeks, i didnt catch that. So relatable as information tech student 😄
‘Please let this paper be ok’
*opens paper*
‘What the fuck is that’
Lmaooo this was me yesterday in my maths mock
ATAR by chance?
Same here at yesterday
Literally me during my final exam
That "ohmygodohmjygodmohygdmohymgodohmygod" during the exam hit me right in the feels.
evri tyme i cri
especially when you're at the honors class #thatfeeling
Everytime
The "it's trivial" reverse uno card was pure genius
now I know why bridge failures happen.
“Maximize the grade to effort ratio” killed me
""Prove it ... rigorously"" I would say very rigorously 😂😂😂😂
I love how in this, super relatable, regular intelligence, but irl a fucking mad genius like how
It's funny how the teacher knew "the noise" was the word proof.
"I can see you cheating."
"Yeah prove it. Rigorously."
Best line
Yooooo him calculating his grades in like 3:09 is literally me and every engineering student I know 😂😂
also highly applies to comp sci students.
I think it’s any stem student
@@lordtachanka9967 does the grade matter aslong as I pass? No it does not
If this is normal then I will pass with flying colors.
Started doing it freshman year of hs to relieve stress. Haven’t turned back
Thanks zach:)
The part about calculating the grade to effort ratio and potential scenarios my grade could be is so accurate to me and so many of my friends I can't even...
as someone who did math at uni, my favourite bit was when he tries to answer all remaining questions after the announcement that there's 30 seconds to go with one-word answers! xD
As a student studying calculus in university, I approve of this comment.

watching the video while having the final of calc 2 tomorrow hits different
this summarizes my entire calc 1 experience
“Dear Calc 2 gods, please make this test make a little bit of sense”
*opens test*
“What the f*ck is that”
LITERALLY THO
Stupid series huh
Can confirm, currently going through calc 2 hell.
@@freddouglas6935 wait for calc 3 HAHAHA its *chefs kiss* got an amazing 0,5 out of 20
@@Noellexafael maybe its just community college calc 3 but 2/3 of my Calc 3 was easy
Mainly covered partial differentiation
@@HackersSun Cold be related to colleges indeed because my calculus 2 and 4 were easy and 1 and 3 were really hard.
Actually did the calculation at the end for every single class. Wondering my range for the final. For Calc 1 I needed a 97 to get an A, and told my prof ahead of time. Only got a 94 but he gave me the “97”. It does pay off.
How do you tell a prof you want an A ? Like really?? Does that work????
@@lillyluna2449 Yeah if I did that, my profs would rather push the cutoff higher rather than bring it down. So in this case, even if I'd gotten 97, I'd just be told that the you now need 98 for an A and to go screw myself..
Dude last spring in a math class I calculated my grade every week and by the end of the semester I was looking at barely passing by a percent if my final grade was generous. So the semester ends and the proff doesnt post a grade for a month, I wrote an email to the omsbudsman asking wtf and then a few days later I had an A! Lol wtf
My A- final to get a C in Partial Differential Equations feels this.
@@lillyluna2449 If you're a motivated student, they will try helping you with your goal a bit. See it like that, if the professor is motivated, he wants to reward your motivation and hard work and if the professor is unmotivated, he'll still help you because he just wants to be done with it and not have some nerds argue with him about a few %.
The aggressive calculator tapping throughout is just the best.
Ive rewatched this multiple times. Ive never been so called out before
hahaha, oh crap caught, I've done the same thing, I've calculated what minimal I need to "pass" a class.
Pretty sure everybody has done that at some point
Yeah, but now I'm a teacher. 😳😂😂😂
i do it on tests all the time
Same here then on the last test I just stared at the paper losing hope because Idk what to do lol
Every. Single. Sem 🤣🤣🤣
"I can see you cheating."
"Yeah well prove it... rigorously"
I’m exactly the same in the test day when I have my physics homework, honestly when taking the classes the teacher is confusing and she has a terrible class organization and teaching techniques. I feel screwed most of the time and my grades are dropping, when I see this videos I feel like I’m not alone or the only one. This channel definetly is a life saver when I feel stuck in life.
I hope to become an EE in a near future :-)
