regardless here was a question from my final:

[This is a relatively simple question, assuming once the two rooms reach equilibrium the heat transfer will cease. For this I was asked to find Q and Delta "T", which in this case represents rate of heat transfer and final temperature. The equation I used is derived from Q=M(c)delta T.]


A 1kg piece of aluminum metal at 100 degrees Celsius is placed in 5 liters of water at 25 degrees Celsius, determine the final temperature. Cp-water=4184 J/kg◦C Cp-Al=900J/kg◦C

In Hungary this one could be in test in Physics for a primary school studet. I don't say everyone would be able to do it, just saying.

I did this stuff 2 years ago (at 14) but I guess that its just learning different things at different stages of education but that was really easy tbh. Although you have more than likely been taught things I am yet to do like some of the stuff you mentioned in the shoutbox.

From having been in both school systems, Europe/North America, I can say that the American school system is a little slower. You typically start everything earlier in European school systems, and therefore are ahead of the American system. For a quick example, Irish secondary school finishes at 17 (without a skip year) whereas American is always at 18. And you learn essentially the same content. Of course, saying American/European I am referring to Irish/Canadian, and assuming the same holds true in their neighbouring countries.

Went totally out of my way to avoid any mathematics content i could possibly avoid in high school. Did my one mandatory math class in college (which was an "Introduction to Elementary Mathematics") and my two required sciences were the least math related ones I could get myself into (Ecology, Intro to Chem.) I then proceeded to get the fuck out of dodge. No more math and science for this guy.

I'm suprised that in Ireland you finish secondary at 17 when in the UK its 16. But in the USA compulsorary schooling includes what I call college and you call highschool which is why they finish at 18. (Even that can vary state to state?)

That looks like simple algebra to me.
