    Straight A's in every class

    (actually had a couple B's, but they were weighted courses, so it counted as an A)

    Technically light has relativistic mass by virtue of possessing energy. It also has momentum a la DeBroglie.

    Thanks, I was also curious about that.

    In my european system Straight A's(5's) would give you and average of 5.0.

    And same here, last year I had a very plentiful harvest and smoked almost every day for one semester. Also straight A's. But I guess that what happens when you enjoy your field of study.

    You'd be surprised, most of it was borderline for me (90-92%) in the class, and I put in a decent amount of effort.

    The science classes I managed to get above 100% every year, but that's just because I enjoy the subject.

    Math classes are relatively difficult, and all of the other classes (history, English, foreign language) is the same as in Europe.

    That's both an anecdote AND a self-appraisal. I don't think this evidence is terribly valid.

    I don't quite understand what you guys are implying - are you implying just because a kid experiments/enjoys drugs and alcohol while he is still young he will become/is a loser?

    I know this isn't true.

    The classes are extremely easy, AP gets a bit harder during junior and senior years.

    Freshman and sophomore high school science is unbelievably easy, yet many kids are struggling with it. The classes have a lot of extra credit

    It wasn't an intention greentext.

    I was just wondering how you managed to get over 100%.

    No schools I know of ever give out more than 100%.

    Each semester, about 6-7% of extra credit is allowed and added on. It's mostly a thing that the science teachers did at my school.

    For example, during 9th grade, we had physics/chemistry. During the chemistry portion of the year, the teacher would just put a piece of paper on the desk with a tough balancing equation problem. If someone solves it, gives it to him in the morning, they get like an extra 3 points in the quarter.

    And he did that like every day, and I would always take them. Most of them were really basic too

    No, I'm implying that kids who do this are more predisposed to become a loser because of their background. Obviously it isn't going to be true in all cases. Maybe it's less of a phenomenon in America but you see a lot of this shit in the UK.

    In US all of the kids that smoke weed, that I know, actually ARE losers

    But it's not because they smoke weed, they've always been dumb/not caring about school since elementary school.

    Point in case: people often act as though those kids who spent ages playing computer games and not socialising with the other kids were going to grow up to become losers. And plenty often they are right. But a few of them instead grew up to be residents of /sci/, so clearly they did something right.

    this sounds legit to me. not phrased very well but its true. The wavelength of an electron in an electron microscope is smaller than that of visible light, so electron microscopes can acheive better resolution than optical microscopes before being diffraction limited.

    tl:dr you are a faggot

    In theory, it doesn't, but...

    experiments have shown that at light speed, photons have a mass of between 3 and 7 x 10^ -27 eV.

    That reads to me like we have established possible maximums for the mass of the photon, not that we've proven it has mass.

    Fascinating stuff nonetheless!

    True, I sort of got that feeling too, but then again the photon was theorized as a massless particle. I'm always a fan of the mantra "absence of evidence is not evidence of absence." It's highly debatable.
