Quick, Marty, we've got to get back!

Have you ever wondered, "Hey, if I ever time traveled to 1876, would I be able to get into MIT?" If you have, then today's your lucky day!

I could probably do that math completely right, and I'm not even good at math. That stuff is what we've been learning 9th grade, more or less.

Not multiple choice? What a gyp.

They used zeros back then?

MIT is weak sauce. :p

Cute.

If it weren't for the race issue, I could be a brilliant philosopher in the 2000 bc's.

That and language barrier.

edit: what's the formal way to find roots? cubed roots? etc?

i think I missed something somewhere on the first geometry question. yey for summer.

i knew row echelon would come in handy one day

Not as useful as Gauss-Jordan.

I've just completed another year of school...I think I'll pass.

I'll bet I could do most of that, but the thought of having to makes me cry out in anguish.
