10.05.2025 03:00 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0This sent me in basically a depressive spiral so I failed the last year of 2nd year physics and got only 50% on the last year so I basically gave up... also didn't manage to get funding for the extension + senior year. But in SA senior year is a separate degree so I got a "A" for pure math.

"surely you should just learn statistics and design Optimal filters," also my lab report was too mathematically rigorous so I got zero for it just because it was too long for my tutor to read.

OTOH, he is a reactionary.
