More towards the "can't accrue days while partaking in interships," not the 330. 330 is 100% set in stone and I am very aware. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

I knew of the 1 for 2 with regard to sea days, so I was leaning more towards using it as the internship as I was told by my atr that internships can not be used to count towards sea days if you are a deck major. That claim I am not even sure is correct, but I digress. When it comes to days, I...

I realize that for cadet shipping at USMMA it must be a company with embarc provisions in place. The only company that operates ATBs and complies with embarc is Crowley. Anyone have any experience or know if it is possible to sail on an ATB for a portion of second sailing? My atr was rather...

Rate my Professor is not a good metric as often those who are disgruntled with their instructor will leave bad reviews while those who found them satisfactory won't evem bother leaving one. Look at the statement on the importance sig figs. Sig figs should not be so hard to grasp that it is a...

Thank you very much for the clarification. Very reassuring because of all the calc classes I have taken were no calculator or 4 function only, so I definitely feel more confident and prepared. :)

I already have one, however some classes at my high school only allowed 4 function calcs since ti 89 has formula manipulation on top of the graphing capabilities among a slew of other things the ti 84 has. As such, I was wondering if it was better to just bring both. Just wanted to clarify.

So should I bring a scientific calculator as well as a graphing calc?

I mean there are specific types of calc problems that do not require a calculator like evaluating limits, certain integrals, MVT, and related rates, so I was just trying to see what I need to brush up on. Definitely not a genius lol.

I am working through the practice problems assigned for math prep for the incoming class of 2026, and so far they seem rather trivial if you are allowed to use a calculator. As a result, I was wondering what the format of the classes would be when it came to calculators being used, and if it...

I had a 3.7 weighted, 1370 SAT, 34 ACT and got in. Don't overthink it. Good luck. :)

I would say that taking AP Chem is not a very good idea until you learn exactly WHY you got a D. Although AP Chem is not as "hard" as AP Physics C or AP Calc BC, if you do not have a basic understanding of the material, you will most likely fail again. See if you can take a summer course at a...

I had a C in trig. I retook class at a local college during the night and not only earned an A, but it also set me up to do well in Calc 1. Use this as a learning experience. Think about why you did not do well in it. Although it will still show on your transcript, it doesn't hurt to retake it...

Are you considered an active duty reservist when at USMMA? What are you considered in your 4 years at the academy? I'm definitely confused.

I copy pasted direct from the USMMA website under the service obligation section and went through each obligation one by one acknowledging them, and it worked. I think it's probably the safest bet to say more and not less for sure 🙂

The original thread you responded to is from 2009. I think I can help however. I did not write mine in the third person, and just covered all the things stated in the instructions that needed to be said, and I remember I explicitly stated I understood the service obligation. If you would like, I...

For the computer package, is there a docking station/monitor, or is it laptop only. I just wonder as I am much more productive at a desktop.

Are they not given for free before Sea Year anyways?

They are not, just making sure I understood what "in uniform" meant. Thank you for the clarification.

I found in the MIDN Uniform Regulations that earrings are not allowed whenever in uniform, which makes sense. However, what is considered "in uniform?" Is there ever a time when one could wear studs for example? I am not very knowledgeable, so forgive me if this seems like an idiotic question.

For Marine Transportation, can you test out of Calc 1? Would you advise against doing that? Also is the calculus at KP calculator or no calculator?
