Where can I learn this engineering stuff. I'm in secondary school at the moment and just wanted to know where I can learn the full engineering course for free.

7:29 "You forgot to comment your name on the top..." That f*cking thing always annoys me. It has happen to me many times and they have always declined my entire work only for that. The fun part is that my name IS written there, but not at the top. I honestly can't believe it is the same situtation on other universities. I thought it was because I have to study in a "public"(cheap) university in Mexico.
R^2=x^2+y^2...so not far off, but I got you🤣 Our lecturer made us study 3 chapters on fluid mechanics to write a test out of 25...he sent 3 exercises out, so most of us focused on that work, he didn't put it in the test...I failed with 10/25...they break you sometimes
i watched this at the beginning of my first semester in EE and thought "Haha, funny how he exaggerates how professors act" im in my 3rd now and know he was absolutely on point
@@karsten_ XD. It's the same in chemistry and physics. Though in our case, we learned by second semester. Now I've been studying for God knows how long and it's just hillarious at this point. Y'know, I think we're all kinda masochistic in these majors to some degree.
@@Olivia-W I went through the entire 5 stages of greif through my degree, and really you only hit the acceptance stage when you stop giving a damn half way through your capstone. As rough as work is, it will never be as bad as school was
My Engineering professor heard from our other teachers that our class is above average, and so he rushes through all the material in an hour and gives us the last hour and a half free to do what we want. It's nice, but a little intense.
@KRYMauL oh please! what us physics researchers do is "Okay,you can see with voltage change this glass is changing color,bam, i invented lcd, its upto to the engineers now to make it useful"
This was a psychology prof's big paper once, showing that if you have no skill you're extremely overconfident, and if you have little to moderate skill, you're very underconfident, and only when you're have complete mastery do you have regular confidence.
I’m in Chemical Engineering, but had to take an electrical engineering class. My electrical engineering teacher was both the “doesn’t answer the question” and the “you shall not pass” one. It’s a miracle I passed that class. His tests took twice the time he gave us to do it. Glad I don’t have to take any more electrical engineering classes!
@@asiamies9153 My chem prof was sorta confused too (literally said "yeah idk where software engineers would use chem"), but anyone in any engineering stream whatsoever has to take all the first year eng classes, including chem and physics.
@@trk20. You might need to know the formulas for gas shit when coding whatever you are coding :/ only thing I can think of. then again u can learn that online
My electrical engineering teacher was a chemical engineering. He was my favorite teacher in collage so far. My favorite quote from was "I am not allowed to have office hours right now but if I am in my office and you find me in there I will help you". This was the first semester coming back from Covid-19 so no everything was back to normal.
This happened to me recently in Calculus I last quarter. The syllabus said that there were 3 exams and a final "tentatively scheduled" for some days, and then the instructor gave us a fourth "pop exam" which preceded the final. Had no clue it would actually happen. Hopefully this isn't too common, and this particular instructor does tend to be disorganized.
I had a teacher in my early years of circuitry analysis that was genuinely a good teacher and would do his best to explain what’s going on. The problem was he was so perfect at what he did he assumed everything was easy and sometimes wouldn’t understand why we didn’t get something. I’ve seen him use a calculator like once, he didn’t even use one for doing superposition from Kirchhoff. It’s not like he had most of the values memorized, he’d just make up new circuit’s totally on the fly and have them work perfectly. He retired recently and you could tell he had nearly 50 years of experience under his belt
there was a teacher at my high school that would substitute every. single. class. no matter how far away from his field of expertise it was, he would substitute it and still teach the subject properly. to be knowledgeable enough to teach every single subject at his age, he probably started learning math and playing piano at 2 days old.
@@ledocteur7701 highschool level subjects are pretty easy to understand. You just have to follow the curriculum and hope that none of your students are going to ask questions outside of what’s being taught.
This!!!!! My biggest problem my entire life! People are just so used to what they do they cannot take the perspective of a beginner, even when they try is still advanced stuff. Nothing made this more glaring to me than cooking, which is just as hard as it can get.
I'm studying computer engineering, and holy shit this is so relatable. Freshman year in my Electronics lab, I had a professor who refused to answer questions that pertained to anything he had explained during the lecture. So if you didn't understand something, the last person you should ask was him. He would get mad at you and say: "I already explained that, you should have understood it when you had the chance!". I have no idea how I passed.
I had a professor like that in Junior year so I just got a Chegg subscription and used the homework solutions to teach myself. Professors will tell you that’s cheating but if it wasn’t for Chegg, I wouldn’t have learned shit. A lot of people will use it to cheat but I used it to learn.
@@tomcotter4299 there is more than one solution. more is just for clients comfort like in case of machine failure or can handle future change. I'll use an example like requirements would be 'lay down pipes for full function'. more is like 'lay down another in case of first pipe breaks
@ignoblius "What's that E stand for?" It's Young's Modulus... "How do we know it's 200 GPa?" It's in the book. "I don't have the book." Fine, just remember for most steels it's 200 GPa. "What's GPa stand for?" How are you in senior design project? "I paid Khaleel to do my homework for the last 4 years" *gun shot*
In the US you aren't allowed to steal others work, its called plagiarism. That might work well in some 3rd world engineering varsity's where you pay others to do your work.
I’m in my last semester of mechanical engineering and by the grace of God I never ran into a professor like this. We got blessed with some amazing profs. A moment of silence for those not as fortunate…..
Me: argues back "So, what is that purpose though?" "All you have to know is that there is a purpose" "But what?" "Why are you being a smartass? Philosophizing on why they did this, did that. Spend your time completing your practical that you're late submitting." "..."
Bless my one professor who made his own textbook for the class and sent it to all the students without us even asking. He also had some of the fairest tests I've ever encountered.
@@faisalinc.7658 For electrical engineers, even Germans use that symbol for resistors. An uncommon symbol is just a box, but universally the zigzag is used.
This is so accurate. I just started my second semester of engineering and in my first chemistry class the teacher said "you should know that [electronic configurations] from middle school" and I was like "I graduated from middle school 4 years ago".
Don't forget the ones where they say: "It's basic math" every 30 seconds. My circuits prof constantly made a point of saying how easy this material was for him to understand....like....no shit?
My favorite exams were the: it took me 4 weeks to explain you this project, you had 5 weeks to do it, and now in this 50 minute exam you have a problem just like it. GL&HF.
You know in Russia there is still mandatory military service, and one of the few ways you can avoid it is to be a university student. So, there is a joke going around. Examiner looks through the student's work and sighs - "I don't know which is more terrifying. To fail you means that you'll go and join the army that defends me, and to give you a passing grade means you'll go on to apply your skills building stuff i may end up using"
There's a video of Russian soldiers sliding artillery shells down a snow covered rocky hill instead of driving them down safely. I knew one of them was going to explode right at the start of the video.
Bro that capacitor one was so true. One thing I've learned so far making circuits is that if ur circuit doesn't work, try adding random capacitors. Usually works.
*Electronics engineer at work:* "Analogue electronics is easy". *Me:* OK, this is a simple circuit diagram of a circuit which works. How exactly does it do 'X'? *Electronics engineer at work:* "...." *Me:* That's my point.
Best teachers I ever had at the end of semester told: "There will be no finals. I've seen you work whole semester and there's no point of repeating that. Final score will be derived from semester scores. Now go get some rest."
In my class on the first day before we had bought our textbooks, some student sent a link on the class Canvas page to a website where it was located for free, and saved us all hundreds of dollars. The people who already payed were able to get refunds from the bookstore. The professor then encouraged we all use that link. That's an outlier of an experience though for sure. Definitely one of the best professors I've ever had.
I remember in my program students would share PDFs of textbooks, by junior year nobody was buying them, everyone knew you just had to ask around or be offered it. Passed around via E-mail or on memory sticks. I always thought it would have been a perfect model for the microbiology students to use as a simulation of disease spread, to try to find "patient zero." Probably most comparable for simulating STDs: "Who[s computer] did you stick your thing [USB stick] into to get this from, and who did you in turn give it to that way?" I was probably a bit of a super-spreader actually. I wasn't bothered by ethical concerns of "stealing," in fact I found pirating them to be morally preferable to feeding the parasite that is textbook publishers. A few professors, mostly in lower level classes, used the online access thing you had to pay a bunch for, but that subsided later in my program, I don't know if professors stopped using it in general or if higher-level courses didn't try. Professors probably figured out that this was a way to make students despise them before even seeing them the first time.
I remember one of our lecturers cried because she was not able to describe the purpose of the diode in the circuit. Then the guy who asked her the questions was given the assignment to explain it in the next class.
I had a professor who was so knowledgeable about his area that he legit could not understand how we were not understanding what the hell he was talking about .. you could see the sadness on his face when someone asked a question that he thought was "obvious". He ended up doing a very easy test so that everyone could get the grade so he was certainly a cool dude .. We ended up finding his personal page on the intenet, very weird since it was not linked to the university website, like every other professor's page, anyway we found out he was involved with the computation of prime numbers, trying to develop an algorithm better than the current ones to keep finding new prime numbers .. he would also casually talk about solving 3d and 4d sudokus with algorithms in the fastest way possible .. so a class about dynamic programming would quickly turn into advanced algorithmic theory applied to sudoku in 3 and 4 dimmensions and someone had to remind him that the class was completely lost and he had to get back on track ..
My community college physics prof did this shit openly on purpose to "prepare" us for university. I lost a total of 5 points out of 8 on the first lab because I used kg⋅m/s2 instead of N throughout the lab report. When I asked him why that wasn't one point lost he said "because, as stated on the syllabus, the first mistake of the term is noted in red ink, but every subsequent error of the same type is a point off." When I asked him how I was supposed to know I made the mistake 6 times before it was graded, he said "you should've noticed it the first time" LIKE WHAT
0:57 - 1:27 Student: "What's with that over there?" Professor: "It says 100" Student: "Not its value, its purpose" Professor: *erasing the board* "Yes, exactly - it has a purpose" How extremely relatable, you have no idea.
A capacitor in series in a circuit will act kinda like a filter, since it cannot experience changes in voltage quickly. It helps with noise in the voltage source.

The lab report point system one was absolutely… on point. Had a course where lab reports were out of 10 points and it was possible to get a negative score on the report that would then detract from the score of your past reports
Good lord, the 30-page lab reports we used to have to write for our instrumentation class were insane. It was like they were preparing me to write my thesis by making me write a thesis every 2 weeks.
Haha! I once applied to be a tutor and as we were in training this psychology major was talking about how she had to do a twenty page paper for the big final project in some class. I turned to the engineer next to me and said “I have to do a thirty page paper every week, for a lab.”
@@mitchjohnson4714I FELT THAT ON A SPIRITUAL LEVEL! As an EE/CE student it got to a point where went from a 30-50pg report each week to 100pg report each week 🙃
@@kaizoku8087 Someone might respond "but half those are graphs and stuff." Yeah, and each graph is harder to do than a paragraph. It involves doing experiments and analyzing them or solving complex equations.
I never had a teacher like that, but my teacher for Dutch _[I live in the Netherlands, so Dutch class is what English class would be in English-speaking countries]_ in High School recounted a story once of a fellow Dutch-teacher from another school. In the Netherlands each High School final exam is not only graded by the teacher on that subject from the school the student is attending, but also by a teacher from another school to avoid bias and such. So, here's the story: this teacher would give every student a 5/10 (essentially a D+ I believe) at most for their Short Story at the finals. His reasoning? Well, Willem Frederik Hermans -- legendary Dutch author, one of the "Big Three" of the post-War era -- was really bad at writing Short Stories, so he'd only be getting a 5/10 for one if it were being graded with school grades. A High School-student *_obviously_* can't be a better writer than the Great Willem Frederik Hermans, right? And that is why no High School student could ever score more than a 5/10 on their Short Stories as far as this mystery teacher was concerned.
*C++ programming flashbacks* For real though. There was a professor who taught it at the University I went to who was notoriously famous for failing nearly half of the students he would teach, lol
@@FlipJanson_ that wasn't the problem, the professor just didn't care to fail people. When on the first day of class, a professor says that most likely only 50% of the class will either fail or drop the course, you *know* it's the professor. I actually thought he was a pretty cool guy tbh though. He was doing his own research and had previous projects that were adopted. I eventually dropped the course and easily passed the course from another professor the following semester 😂😂 But I see you're point, you're right :)
A university's engineering faculty is invited by an airplane manufacturer to be passengers on the test flight of their latest, fastest experimental aircraft. The professors are all excited as they board the plane and get ready for the trip. Once on board the company's representative says, "Great to see you all here. We invited you all to commemorate your great work, you should know that this airplane was fully designed, engineered, and made by your successful students!" There is a mad scramble for the doors as the professors panic to be let off the plane. The representative notices one professor sitting calmly. "Why are you not panicking like the others?" "Because," the professor answers, "I taught and knew those kids for four years of schooling. I am confident that I know their abilities. I have complete faith that this shit will not even start."
*Professor begins to erases board* Me: Wait, Professor, can you keep it on the board? I am still writing it down. Professor: One second. *Professor finishes erasing the board* Professor: What was your question?
“The one that screws you out of your money” Nowadays they do this by requiring you buy a code for an online textbook. You can’t keep the receipt, you can’t get it used, you can’t resell it later, and if you retake the course in a later semester, you’ll have to buy a new code. The textbook is horribly written with all the same info you could find online for free, so you’ll never use it to study, but you still need to buy it because the interactive exercises account for 10+% of your grade. Publishing companies literally force students to pay for access to the homework for classes they already fucking paid to attend.
Oh yeah for sure, I had to pay 100$ for a fucking pre calc textbook(taking it cause I just wanna get my math out the way even though I took calc) and its like, this is a waste
Bruh I had to pay only 30 euro for a 300-page Calculus textbook with exercises and answers, plus access to the "dumb as rocks" online edition where all exercises and their answers are explained to you in detail. And the best part is, you can use last year's edition with no problems.
I remember being in a statistics class and hearing the professor say "but you guys know what I mean." after some long spiel about correlation. I imagine he said this because half of the class of 40 students were 2nd year students who failed his class and were now taking it again. School is dope.
so true, i started getting straight A's the day i started self studying. I don't even pay attention during classes now. i see classes as an opportunity to day dream and catch up on missed hours of sleep. I just go home and self study in an hour which took the teacher a week to explain. Don't know if i should be happy for finding a way to get good grades or cry because the education system sucks lol

I got an assignment today that had 10 review questions, fea beam analysis over 3 exercises including hand calcs. I missed one review question and lost 15% off the assignment. I mean, at that rate the review questions alone would be worth 150% of the grade.
Had this guy as an Ochem lab professor once. Gave no rubric for lab reports, so I took the rubrics of the two college chem labs I had taken previously and made sure to include everything on them. He still came up with a million bullshit reasons to deduct points. Added those for the next report. New bullshit deductions. So on and so forth every week. The one time the TA gave me an A he went back and found 15 more points worth of deductions to add on before handing it back. And I couldn't go to office hours to ask about any of this because I had another class at the one time they were offered during the week, and the one week I managed to get out of that class and come ask for some guidance the motherfucker makes me wait forty five minutes for him to get off the phone and then affords me about five which he spends entirely on being a condescending fuckwad and making it clear that I can't get out of his sight fast enough. You shouldn't become a professor if you don't have any desire to actually teach your students, especially the ones who genuinely want to learn. Anthony J. Arduengo, if you're reading this, get fucked.
The caps are either bypass caps or filters for noise. It's hard to tell since there is no power source for the active amplifiers haha. The first stage is a common emitter amplifier with a filter, and the second stage is a class B amplifier
@@ProNoobGamer93 The diodes are used to bias the transistors specifically to make the circuit what's called an AB class amplifier. With a constant voltage drop from the diodes, both output transistors conduct signal a little bit longer than without it, reducing crossover distortion.
You forgot the one that "Shouldn't have been a teacher": You ask them a question about last weekend's material and they refuse to answer it because "you should have already mastered that".
The one that should've been a teacher is a subcategory. Almost none of them should have been teachers. I remember literally 1 of my engineering professors and 1 of my math teachers from undergrad as being good teachers who cared about every student-- both, of course, adjuncts. The tenured professors are infinitely worse at guiding student outcomes than the adjuncts, they do the minimum to turn their classes into their choice of failure factories or graduate mills and then repeat it year after year. The adjuncts competed with 250 other people for their chance to teach, that competition of course being based on theoretical and professional competence, not teaching ability.
This was my crotechty old machine shop professor. Loved students who grew up on farms or had worked with machinery before. Hated people who weren't already familiar with these things, and never was willing to help as he always was "too busy" (chatting with other profs about random shit). Hated students who didn't already know all the stuff, didn't feel like he should have to teach them anything. As if that weren't his actual job or something.
@@solcoster8110 Gravity pulls things down. What he's saying is he's rounding the half point down. What this means if you get a half point it doesn't affect your grade, and if you lose a half point it counts as a full point.
This isn't actually a skit, it's just leaked footage of why Andrew dropped out of engineering. But yes decided to take a brief break from the long technical videos, hope you all enjoy! Regular video will be out next week and is available now at patreon.com/majorprep
I'm literally going to cry, I just took a networking midterm today and it was nothing like the practice test, nothing like the quizzes, nothing like the labs, and nothing like the lectures or textbook... too accurate
You forgot one professor: The One that Doesn't Slow Down for Squat. Had a professor in my CAD lab who would tell how how to use different features in CAD. Man, if you got behind by even a second, you were screwed, there was no catching up to him
Sadly it's not always their fault. I had a few fantastic teachers that always did this because they just weren't assigned enough time. For their classes, early was on time because they would start exactly on schedule (or earlier if possible) and we often ended late. And even then still we had to skip some things. The school was cutting funding to our department to dump it into the business department :( Sometimes teachers are just ruthless like that because they just don't have the time to spare, either later in the semester or in more senior classes. If they slowed everything down to the pace of the slowest people in class they wouldn't have enough time later on. Certain critical things have to be taught. If they don't then EVERYONE will struggle when they take a class where they're missing the prerequisite knowledge. And then it just snowballs. Also, none of the people who struggled earlier on in the program would have survived the classes in our final year, so it really doesn't matter to the teachers if those people get abandoned mid-way through.
As an engineering student, I literally had tears rolling down my face from laughing. Pretty sure I woke my roommate up. LMFAO. And yea physics lab is quite literally hell on Earth. Thanks for the stress relief before I go to seminar to break wooden sticks with the most faulty sensors ever just so I can say that bigger wood is better 👍
Physics student here, making the last report took me three straight days of work (Friday, Saturday, Sunday), I had to teach myself half of the stuff i needed to use, had to choose between ~18000 individual pieces of data, write a few thousand words while keeping to the format like I was writing a book, and deal with the faulty code of the template we were sent, *only to miss the theoretical value by an order of magnitude and get a negative value for g* 🗿🗿 Ahhh, you just gotta love the labs
Absolutely the same, it struck me so hard, I have a deadline for a report tomorrow midnight, and I'm watching videos about engineering what is wrong with me.
That one is canonically a sabotage effort though. The chief engineer and primary system designer built in a flaw in the system that absolutely required that vent to be there. He then sabotaged all the engineering efforts that would have shown the risk of the defect. He was the chief engineer on a very fast paced program, and speaking from experience a person in that position could probably get away with that. By the time he was caught and revealed as a spy they were pretty much taking the weapon into battle and there wasn't any time for them to find his sabotage.
Please no, Rogue One retconning it was absolutely horrific. It didn't even need explaining What is so unbelievable of a massive death star having an ecploitable exhaust port? Mind you, it doesn't have only one of those, there are several(8 or 16, can't remember whuch one it was) at the end of trenches near its north pole. And of those ports only 1(one) is exploitable. We didn't need the Rougue One retcon, we didn't need to explain a plothole where there wasn't one, to end up fucking it up more...
Yeah because a moon-sized space station that has such a small exhaust vent isn't a miracle of engineering. Have you seen the ventilation on your pc? Btw it's not like it's just "a hole", there should be all kinds of valves, filtration and whatnot since it opens into space,with a air,heat,radiation,waste going out from it.
If you are an engineer this video literally hurts, it doesn't make you laugh 😂 Edit : Listen everyone. I know there is truth behind this comment but I didn't make it to scare people off from going into engineering. If you really like engineering and you are willing to work you will be alright. Don't go in there for the money, it's the attraction of the subject that keeps you going and if you don't like the subject you will quit eventually. Also the thing is, in most unis nowadays you *have* to study on your own, not just in engineering. Take care :)
Couldn't agree more I spent my entire veterans day off, on campus with the professor going over the next days exam that I had been studying all week for along with 15 out of 40 other students. Test day nobody finished on time and we were expected to hand solve 3 problems with multiple 8x8 matrices with nasty variables in them write down all the steps (that's 64 terms per matrix) in under 50 minutes and that was just today. And 1 credit labs take 15hrs a week because the TA feels high and mighty that he is in charge and doesn't follow the rubric. Ugg your right this video wasn't funny lt was relatable.
Student: So what do I need to do to get an A? Engineer Zach: I don't even know. That's the crazy thing. That part was too funny 😂 Honestly a lot of college professors do things like this.
Then there’s the teacher : “I don’t like giving homework so you guys will rarely get homework” and then you end up with a mountain of papers and like 5 exams already planned in advance
We more suffer with profs who are old enough not even be able to send us the homework over email, let alone use a simple platform like microsoft teams. Teams is actually not that bad of a platform but most of profs and even students have no clue how to even turn on a computer, let alone study online
I have buddies that major in liberal arts trying to compare their degree to mines until I see what they go through, I laughed. I honestly don’t think they give out grades but their studies does not even come close to what I go through..
Jordan Trakas well I mean if you get a square and fold in the corners effectively infinite times it makes a circle that has a perimeter with 4 and not pi but since pi has to be the circle perimeter (at least in this situation) and pi=3 that means 3=4
Oh my god the “You Shall Not Pass” where he said none of his students finished the exam is relatable. My final was all the midterms and quizzes put together to some nearly 15 page test with multiple long answer problems
I had one professor give a test of 5 questions where you had to derive the correct equation from a diagram. But it was multiple choice A through G. The correct answer was "None Of The Above" for each question
One of my Profs called himself the "gatekeeper" to becoming an engineer. If you don't meet his insane standards, he doesn't believe you should pass to become an engineer. He caused more than half the class to switch engineering majors in 4th year.

@@brianhemenway5191 my dude it may not be a good time but using wright instead of write doesn't exactly help your case that English professors are giving you bad grades.
Aight, those semi-colons are irritating to use for their one purpose as sentence breaks; connecting two somehow related sentences to each other can be just done with punctuation and capitalization instead...
Teacher who should have been an english professor has a complex sentence in the background beginning with the dependent clause, yet there's no comma separating it from the independent clause.
“Right here ? Sorry I write sloppy sometimes that says 100!” “Not the value ITS PURPOSE!!!” “Yes EXACTLY, it has a PURPOSE its not just chillin their VERY good 😎.” - Kill me

My Engineering professor heard from our other teachers that our class is above average, and so he rushes through all the material in an hour and gives us the last hour and a half free to do what we want. It's nice, but a little intense.

Every engineer is always wrong, but good engineer knows how wrong he is
@KRYMauL oh please! what us physics researchers do is "Okay,you can see with voltage change this glass is changing color,bam, i invented lcd, its upto to the engineers now to make it useful"
This was a psychology prof's big paper once, showing that if you have no skill you're extremely overconfident, and if you have little to moderate skill, you're very underconfident, and only when you're have complete mastery do you have regular confidence.

"You know this from high school, right?"
I had a teacher in my early years of circuitry analysis that was genuinely a good teacher and would do his best to explain what’s going on. The problem was he was so perfect at what he did he assumed everything was easy and sometimes wouldn’t understand why we didn’t get something. I’ve seen him use a calculator like once, he didn’t even use one for doing superposition from Kirchhoff. It’s not like he had most of the values memorized, he’d just make up new circuit’s totally on the fly and have them work perfectly. He retired recently and you could tell he had nearly 50 years of experience under his belt
there was a teacher at my high school that would substitute every. single. class. no matter how far away from his field of expertise it was, he would substitute it and still teach the subject properly.

In my class on the first day before we had bought our textbooks, some student sent a link on the class Canvas page to a website where it was located for free, and saved us all hundreds of dollars. The people who already payed were able to get refunds from the bookstore. The professor then encouraged we all use that link. That's an outlier of an experience though for sure.
Definitely one of the best professors I've ever had.
I remember in my program students would share PDFs of textbooks, by junior year nobody was buying them, everyone knew you just had to ask around or be offered it. Passed around via E-mail or on memory sticks. I always thought it would have been a perfect model for the microbiology students to use as a simulation of disease spread, to try to find "patient zero." Probably most comparable for simulating STDs: "Who[s computer] did you stick your thing [USB stick] into to get this from, and who did you in turn give it to that way?" I was probably a bit of a super-spreader actually. I wasn't bothered by ethical concerns of "stealing," in fact I found pirating them to be morally preferable to feeding the parasite that is textbook publishers. A few professors, mostly in lower level classes, used the online access thing you had to pay a bunch for, but that subsided later in my program, I don't know if professors stopped using it in general or if higher-level courses didn't try. Professors probably figured out that this was a way to make students despise them before even seeing them the first time.

He ended up doing a very easy test so that everyone could get the grade so he was certainly a cool dude ..
We ended up finding his personal page on the intenet, very weird since it was not linked to the university website, like every other professor's page, anyway we found out he was involved with the computation of prime numbers, trying to develop an algorithm better than the current ones to keep finding new prime numbers .. he would also casually talk about solving 3d and 4d sudokus with algorithms in the fastest way possible .. so a class about dynamic programming would quickly turn into advanced algorithmic theory applied to sudoku in 3 and 4 dimmensions and someone had to remind him that the class was completely lost and he had to get back on track ..

In the Netherlands each High School final exam is not only graded by the teacher on that subject from the school the student is attending, but also by a teacher from another school to avoid bias and such.
So, here's the story: this teacher would give every student a 5/10 (essentially a D+ I believe) at most for their Short Story at the finals. His reasoning? Well, Willem Frederik Hermans -- legendary Dutch author, one of the "Big Three" of the post-War era -- was really bad at writing Short Stories, so he'd only be getting a 5/10 for one if it were being graded with school grades. A High School-student *_obviously_* can't be a better writer than the Great Willem Frederik Hermans, right? And that is why no High School student could ever score more than a 5/10 on their Short Stories as far as this mystery teacher was concerned.

Nowadays they do this by requiring you buy a code for an online textbook. You can’t keep the receipt, you can’t get it used, you can’t resell it later, and if you retake the course in a later semester, you’ll have to buy a new code. The textbook is horribly written with all the same info you could find online for free, so you’ll never use it to study, but you still need to buy it because the interactive exercises account for 10+% of your grade.

Had this guy as an Ochem lab professor once. Gave no rubric for lab reports, so I took the rubrics of the two college chem labs I had taken previously and made sure to include everything on them. He still came up with a million bullshit reasons to deduct points. Added those for the next report. New bullshit deductions. So on and so forth every week. The one time the TA gave me an A he went back and found 15 more points worth of deductions to add on before handing it back. And I couldn't go to office hours to ask about any of this because I had another class at the one time they were offered during the week, and the one week I managed to get out of that class and come ask for some guidance the motherfucker makes me wait forty five minutes for him to get off the phone and then affords me about five which he spends entirely on being a condescending fuckwad and making it clear that I can't get out of his sight fast enough. You shouldn't become a professor if you don't have any desire to actually teach your students, especially the ones who genuinely want to learn. Anthony J.

You forgot the one that "Shouldn't have been a teacher":
You ask them a question about last weekend's material and they refuse to answer it because "you should have already mastered that".
Yup, guys do not ask me questions from test one at the end of semester, if you have any questions ask me now.
69th like.
The one that should've been a teacher is a subcategory. Almost none of them should have been teachers. I remember literally 1 of my engineering professors and 1 of my math teachers from undergrad as being good teachers who cared about every student-- both, of course, adjuncts. The tenured professors are infinitely worse at guiding student outcomes than the adjuncts, they do the minimum to turn their classes into their choice of failure factories or graduate mills and then repeat it year after year. The adjuncts competed with 250 other people for their chance to teach, that competition of course being based on theoretical and professional competence, not teaching ability.
Who also can’t explain anything
This was my crotechty old machine shop professor. Loved students who grew up on farms or had worked with machinery before. Hated people who weren't already familiar with these things, and never was willing to help as he always was "too busy" (chatting with other profs about random shit). Hated students who didn't already know all the stuff, didn't feel like he should have to teach them anything. As if that weren't his actual job or something.
"I treat half points like gravity"
The genius of that line.
dont get it
Sol Coster if you get a half point it rounds down .
@@thepope2412 fuck i still dont get how it relates to gravity?
Because gravty acts towards the centre of the Earth or something and that downwards?
@@solcoster8110 Gravity pulls things down. What he's saying is he's rounding the half point down. What this means if you get a half point it doesn't affect your grade, and if you lose a half point it counts as a full point.

I'm literally going to cry, I just took a networking midterm today and it was nothing like the practice test, nothing like the quizzes, nothing like the labs, and nothing like the lectures or textbook... too accurate
You forgot one professor: The One that Doesn't Slow Down for Squat. Had a professor in my CAD lab who would tell how how to use different features in CAD. Man, if you got behind by even a second, you were screwed, there was no catching up to him
Lol yup. Same ones will get red in the face it you try and take a photo of the whiteboard to keep pace
And if you're unfortunate enough to ask him any questions, be prepared for seething sarcasm
Sadly it's not always their fault.
I had a few fantastic teachers that always did this because they just weren't assigned enough time. For their classes, early was on time because they would start exactly on schedule (or earlier if possible) and we often ended late. And even then still we had to skip some things.
The school was cutting funding to our department to dump it into the business department :(
Sometimes teachers are just ruthless like that because they just don't have the time to spare, either later in the semester or in more senior classes. If they slowed everything down to the pace of the slowest people in class they wouldn't have enough time later on. Certain critical things have to be taught. If they don't then EVERYONE will struggle when they take a class where they're missing the prerequisite knowledge. And then it just snowballs.
Also, none of the people who struggled earlier on in the program would have survived the classes in our final year, so it really doesn't matter to the teachers if those people get abandoned mid-way through.
Yup we call them Ferrari in our university
who depends on professors to learn CAD anyways lmao 😂😂😂
I love the fact that the apple mouse having a charging port on the bottom was included in between the fatal disasters at the end.

You know what, maybe I don't wanna be a engineer. How much does garbage man pay?
Physics student here, making the last report took me three straight days of work (Friday, Saturday, Sunday), I had to teach myself half of the stuff i needed to use, had to choose between ~18000 individual pieces of data, write a few thousand words while keeping to the format like I was writing a book, and deal with the faulty code of the template we were sent, *only to miss the theoretical value by an order of magnitude and get a negative value for g* 🗿🗿

Hessey el caballero ???
The Death Star exhaust vent will always be an engineering oversight in my canon.
That one is canonically a sabotage effort though. The chief engineer and primary system designer built in a flaw in the system that absolutely required that vent to be there. He then sabotaged all the engineering efforts that would have shown the risk of the defect. He was the chief engineer on a very fast paced program, and speaking from experience a person in that position could probably get away with that. By the time he was caught and revealed as a spy they were pretty much taking the weapon into battle and there wasn't any time for them to find his sabotage.
I feel like not having a heat dispersion system for a giant reactor might be a bigger oversight, but that's just me
Please no, Rogue One retconning it was absolutely horrific. It didn't even need explaining
What is so unbelievable of a massive death star having an ecploitable exhaust port?
Mind you, it doesn't have only one of those, there are several(8 or 16, can't remember whuch one it was) at the end of trenches near its north pole.
And of those ports only 1(one) is exploitable.
We didn't need the Rougue One retcon, we didn't need to explain a plothole where there wasn't one, to end up fucking it up more...
Please look up "the death star architect speaks out"
Yeah because a moon-sized space station that has such a small exhaust vent isn't a miracle of engineering. Have you seen the ventilation on your pc? Btw it's not like it's just "a hole", there should be all kinds of valves, filtration and whatnot since it opens into space,with a air,heat,radiation,waste going out from it.
If you are an engineer this video literally hurts, it doesn't make you laugh 😂
Edit : Listen everyone. I know there is truth behind this comment but I didn't make it to scare people off from going into engineering. If you really like engineering and you are willing to work you will be alright. Don't go in there for the money, it's the attraction of the subject that keeps you going and if you don't like the subject you will quit eventually. Also the thing is, in most unis nowadays you *have* to study on your own, not just in engineering. Take care :)
Physicist here, 100% same.
Couldn't agree more I spent my entire veterans day off, on campus with the professor going over the next days exam that I had been studying all week for along with 15 out of 40 other students. Test day nobody finished on time and we were expected to hand solve 3 problems with multiple 8x8 matrices with nasty variables in them write down all the steps (that's 64 terms per matrix) in under 50 minutes and that was just today. And 1 credit labs take 15hrs a week because the TA feels high and mighty that he is in charge and doesn't follow the rubric. Ugg your right this video wasn't funny lt was relatable.
2nd year mechanical engineer here, crying at how accurate this actually is
Even though i am 2nd year electronics engineering i laugh at it because its just like looking at a mirror :D

English for me in a nutshell
We more suffer with profs who are old enough not even be able to send us the homework over email, let alone use a simple platform like microsoft teams.
