Quantum Chemistry 2nd Edition Review

Quantum Chemistry 2nd Edition ReviewIn Quantum Chemistry 2nd Edition, Michael Leviton and Daniel Nocera have created a sequel to the bestselling textbook. The good news is that Quantum Chemistry 2nd Edition is an excellent course for the time being as it is the most popular for beginners of the subject.But does it deserve to be considered as an investment for the students? For now, I am still in the book review stage. However, I have to say that Quantum Chemistry 2nd Edition is an excellent book and is worthy to be compared with any other book of its type in the market.So, what I can say about the Quantum Chemistry 2nd Edition, then? Simply put, the book covers many of the basic and vital aspects of Quantum Chemistry.The book reviews were informative and got to point that is worth highlighting. It is interesting to note that the chapters were well-organized and easy to follow. The author has been very careful to make the book easily accessible so that even first-time users will be ab le to read the text, understand the concept and learn the principles at their own pace.These days, as students encounter new handsbooks, some would be similar to other books and some different. This is what the authors of the Quantum Chemistry 2nd Edition were trying to avoid by making the book a well-designed one. They have thus succeeded in doing the job perfectly and have managed to provide an excellent start for new quantum chemist.The book also comes with a good glossary of terms and all other text related to the subject. One will find many videos in the book, both online and DVD formats. These videos will help a student to learn the concepts better and become knowledgeable about the subject.What is more is that the book is affordable. It is not cheap, but definitely worth the money. I was wondering whether students who have the hard time paying for expensive textbooks can also benefit from this book, but the answer is yes, as it is great to have a great reference book.

Ask an Admissions Expert Jason Lum

Ask an Admissions Expert Jason Lum Varsity Tutors brings you insider tips and advice straight from nationally recognized admissions experts. Jason Lum is the president and founder of ScholarEdge College Consulting. He obtained his undergraduate degree from Washington University in St. Louisand completed his Master of Public Policy at Harvard Universityand his Juris Doctor at University of California, Berkeley. Jason previously served as an application reviewerin the Harvard University Admissions Office. VT: How far ahead of time should a student begin working on his or her college application? Jason: Ideally, students will begin working on their college applications during the summer prior to their senior year. The fact of the matter is that once senior year begins, students are hit hard by all the things thrown at them AP classes, other advanced courses, athletics, and extracurricular activities. On top of that, they are expected to increasingly apply to more and more schools, particularly if they are interested in highly selective colleges and universities. Very few students have the ability to juggle all these commitments simultaneously, so the summer before senior year is a vital time to begin the college application process. VT: What are the best ways to go about selecting a terrific essay topic? Jason: A great essay really is nothing more (and nothing less) than a story. When I work with a student, I try to figure out what it is about that person that I find interesting on a personal level. For example, virtually all the students who apply to selective schools can likely handle the academic workload at those universities. What admissions officers look for is a narrative about the student that separates him or her from other candidates. A great essay topic picked by the student gives the admissions committee a ground-level view of what the student has gone through and what challenges, goals, and visions the student embraces. VT: Are there any essay topics you get tired of seeing or would warn students to stay away from? Jason:One- or two-week mission trips or humanitarian trips that are blown out of proportion. There is, of course, nothing wrong with a student doing a mission trip, and they clearly have value to both the student and to the people who are served. But some students take these trips and make themselves out to be a modern-day Mother Teresa or Nelson Mandela. Admissions committees see through this fairly quickly. VT: What is the biggest mistake a student can make on a college application? Jason: A lack of authenticity. Dont try to paint yourself as someone you are not; be honest, and really delve within yourself to find out what it is about you that would make you a perfect fit at the colleges and universities you are applying to. In 15 years of working with students, I have yet to meet one student who does not have some inspiring experience or life story that deeply affects the reader. VT: What is the typical process an admissions officer goes through to evaluate applications? Jason: It varies from college to college, but admissions officers will generally review the file with a checklist for lack of a better term that helps guide them through the application. Virtually everything that they look for will not surprise students: GPA, ACT/SAT scores, extracurricular activities, etc. The truly subjective part of this process, of course, is the review of the essays, letters of recommendation, and things student cannot control, such as whether the parents are alumni of the college or university, athletics, and race and gender. There is so much subjectivity baked into the process that many students will look at the results from their college applications and not see any consistency even between schools in the same selectivity range. Thats the new normal. VT: What do you think is the single most important thing a student should make sure they present in the best possible way on their application? Jason: The Common Application essay. It is the common denominator for virtually every school a student will apply to, and is the one essay that is guaranteed to be read by the admissions officers at every college and university. Some schools such as Stanford University and The University of Chicago have notoriously lengthy supplemental applications, but even those schools will require the Common Application, and they will review the essay very carefully. VT: How should students go about determining the culture of a university, and whether they would be a good fit? Jason: I am somewhat contrarian on this, but I dont believe parents need to spend thousands of dollars visiting 20 or 30 schools prior to applying to college. There is plenty of valuable information available in books, and on college and university websites. Students really dont need to be visiting schools before applying. Also, working with an independent education consultant can save parents time and money they are paying for the consultants experience. In fact, the consultant probably visited many of the schools a student is likely to apply to, and they can greatly help in the process. VT: Early-action, early-decision, binding/non-binding, regular decisions...With so many choices when applying, what do you recommend to students? Jason: Early-decision which binds a student to go to the school if they are accepted is something that I rarely recommend to students. The only exception is if a student unambiguously identifies that institution as his or her first choice and if financial aid is not an issue. I do, however, recommend non-binding early-action for many students not only because in some cases you have a slight statistical advantage in getting in, but also because it motivates the student to get his or her application done early, as these deadlines typically fall on November 1. The student can still apply to other schools and wait to see if they get into an institution that is either a better fit or gives the family more money. VT: How important are grades and standardized test scores when admissions decisions are being made? Jason: Grades will always be the most important component of an application. Standardized test scores are becoming slightly less important for the vast majority of colleges and universities. However, even though top colleges and universities may say otherwise, we need to be realistic here: a student with a 26 on the ACT is simply not going to have much of a chance of getting into an Ivy League school unless there are some extremely extenuating circumstances. In my practice, however, I have had many students go on to extremely selective schools with very high GPAs and good, but not great, standardized test scores. To me, this is a good thing because many of the best students Ive ever met are lousy standardized test-takers. But they do magnificently in the classroom, and they go on to have very rewarding careers. VT: What tips do you have for students asking their teachers for letters of recommendation? Jason: Dont be too obsessed with making sure that all your recommenders teach in what you think will be your college major. If you think youll be a biology major in college, you dont have to have all of your high school recommenders from the science department. Pick recommenders based on whether the person likes you and knows what you do outside the classroom. My litmus test is this: what does a particular teacher know about you outside of the work youve done in his or her classroom? If the answer is not much, you are asking the wrong person to recommend you. As a side note, if none of your teachers know what youre doing outside of the classroom, then you have a big problem that you need to fix. How do you fix this? Talk to teachers after class or visit them during office hours, join clubs and activities where that faculty member may be an adviser, and basically educate the person about what you do besides taking that teachers class. If you do that, youll be just fine when you ask for a letter of recommendation. Visit ScholarEdge College Consulting for more information.

Solving Rational Expressions

Solving Rational Expressions Expressions consist of one or more than one unknown variables with different coefficients and constant numbers. Rational expression is an expression which consists of terms in the fraction form i.e. p / q form. Here q cannot equal zero. There are various mathematical operations which are used to simplify and solve the given rational expressions. Example 1: Find the solution by simplifying the expression x2/ 2 - x2 / 6? Solution: The given question is on subtracting rational expressions. This question contains adding with the same polynomial x2. The first step is to calculate the LCM of the denominators 2 and 6 which is 6. Now 1 / 2 and 1 /6 can be subtracted with the LCM of the denominators as 6. This makes the solution x2 / 2 - x2 / 6 = 3 x2 / 6 - x2 / 6 = 2x2 / 6. Hence the solution is x2 / 3. Example 2: Find the solution by simplifying the expression x / 10 + 2 x/ 5? The given question is on Adding rational expressions. This question contains adding with the same polynomial x. The first step is to calculate the LCM of the denominators 10 and 5 which is 10. Now 1/ 10 and 2 /5 can be added with the LCM of the denominators as 10. This makes the solution x / 10 + 2 x /5 = x /10 + 4 x /10 = 5 x / 10. Hence the solution is x/ 2.

How to Stick to Your 2018 Goals Tips From Introverted Celebrities Whove Done It in the Past - Introvert Whisperer

Introvert Whisperer / How to Stick to Your 2018 Goals Tips From Introverted Celebrities Who’ve Done It in the Past - Introvert Whisperer How to Stick to Your 2018 Goals: Tips From Introverted Celebrities Who’ve Done It in the Past Kayla Matthews January 1, 2018 Career Development, Self-Promotion No responses Go to top Most of us are either extroverts or introverts. Extroverts find their energy from other people and usually crave the company of others, while introverts recharge with alone time and often become overwhelmed by overstimulation. There is no right or wrong personality, but a fair amount of misunderstanding exists in today’s society when it comes to extroverts versus introverts. Since grade school, teachers have coached children to come out of their shell and interact more with others, as if reading a book by yourself instead of playing on the playground indicates social anxiety. We’ve grown up with the belief that we are supposed to be as social as we can be to fit in and be accepted. However, some of the most successful people in history were or are introverts. Read on for ten tips from introverted celebrities. 1.  Bill Gates “Well, I think introverts can do quite well. If youre clever you can learn to get the benefits of being an introvert, which might be, say, being willing to go off for a few days and think about a tough problem, read everything you can, push yourself very hard to think out on the edge of that area.” Bill Gates The Microsoft founder and philanthropist wants you to know introverts can be very successful in life. He’s living proof. There are benefits to being an introvert that extroverts don’t often have. Use your ability to retain knowledge, analyze a problem and come up with solutions. Being able to think on your own is a gift. 2. Emma Watson   “I’m kind of an introverted kind of person just by nature, it’s not like a conscious choice that I’m making necessarily. It’s genuinely who I am …coming to realize that about myself was very empowering.” Emma Watson The actress and activist has always fought to find her own identity, especially after her “Harry Potter” days came to an end. Her declaration of how genuine she is empowers others around the world â€" you can do the same. Continue to be yourself and empower people. Have your own mission. 3. Steven Spielberg “I never felt comfortable with myself, because I was never part of the majority. I always felt awkward and shy and on the outside of the momentum of my friends’ lives.” Steven Spielberg One of the most famous directors of our time openly admits he would rather watch back-to-back movies on the weekends than go out. Like many other introverts, Spielberg relates to not quite fitting in with his friends or the majority, which allows room for personal growth and creativity. Express yourself in your own way. 4. Eleanor Roosevelt   “Friendship with oneself is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.”Eleanor Roosevelt While the former First Lady is often remembered for her shyness, she eventually came out of her shell and had strong opinions about life. She’s even been referred to as the introvert who wouldn’t keep quiet. Her words still ring true in today’s world â€" love yourself above all else, before you can love others. 5.  Albert Einstein   “The monotony and solitude of a quiet life stimulates the creative mind.” Albert Einstein Einstein believed that solitude and time alone is really sacred â€" that this time should not be looked at as being all alone because it’s a strength. Don’t be afraid to be alone with your own thoughts and self-reflect on your life and its path. Is there something you want to do differently? Do it. 6. Mahatma Gandhi   “In a gentle way, you can shake the world.”Mahatma Gandhi You don’t have to be loud and outspoken to prove a point or be heard. In fact, introverts have subtle and effective ways of sharing their thoughts and ideas. Bring positive change to the world with simple things like kindness towards others. 7. Andy Warhol   “People are always so boring when they band together. You have to be alone to develop all the idiosyncrasies that make a person interesting.” Andy Warhol You’ve heard the saying that you should always be a leader, not a follower. Time alone will teach you about yourself and help you to form your own opinions and ideas. Don’t feel pressure to conform to those around you. Stand out. 8. Stephen Hawking   “Quiet people have the loudest minds.” Stephen Hawking Introverts are often quiet because they are thinking â€" always stuck in their minds about something. Hawking wasn’t concerned with being the life of the party. He was more entertained inside of his own mind, a mind that was always running, like a machine. Take care of your machine and nurture it. With it, you can do anything. 9. Selena Gomez   “I’m not trying to get validation, nor do I need it anymore If youre broken, you do not have to stay broken.” Selena Gomez You do not owe anyone anything. What’s most important in life is that you find your happiness and stay true to yourself. None of us are perfect even if we pretend to be. So admit your faults and work on them. Validation from others will not feed your soul. 10. Steve Wozniak   “Im going to give you some advice that might be hard to take. That advice is: Work alone. Not on a committee. Not on a team.” Steve Wozniak Most of us grew up with our teachers putting us in small groups to work, which many of us loved because it took off the pressure of thinking on your own. You can’t learn to think and act on your own if you are being influenced by everyone else. There are many careers perfect for introverts where you can work alone while growing your interests and thinking creatively. Do things alone, and watch your imagination bloom. Although extroversion is viewed as the ideal in today’s world, introversion has become more accepted and understood. It’s these quiet thinkers who discover groundbreaking technology and create our greatest works of literature and music. These introverts are our influential leaders, our inspiration and our future. Make your mark in the world in 2018.   Photo by: Tessa Rampersad Go to top Do you know what your next career step is?  Many people don’t.

They could even write a letter to a fictional character or celebrity.

What Introverts Can Learn from Extroverts to Rise up the Corporate Ladder - Introvert Whisperer

Introvert Whisperer / What Introverts Can Learn from Extroverts to Rise up the Corporate Ladder - Introvert Whisperer What Introverts Can Learn from Extroverts to Rise up the Corporate Ladder According to a study by the Sutton Trust, individuals with extrovert-like traits are 25% more likely to get high paying jobs than those lacking those traits. In addition, the data stipulates that extroverts are more preferred for leadership positions in an organization. Introversion, on the other hand, is commonly seen as a barrier to growth in corporate leadership. But don’t be demotivated! None of these studies implies that introverts don’t have what it takes to be an effective leader. In fact, a number of successful leaders are actually introverts, believe it or not. Introverts often have skills and talents that extroverts might miss out on, such as independence, introspection, creativity, and critical thinking. Being an introvert doesn’t mean you lack the potential or passion but since extroverts take the cake all too often, there is definitely something they are doing right. And while we as introverts may look down on most introverts for their desire for attention and social interaction, it is okay to learn from them. Let’s take a look at what they are doing right before we move on to what we can learn from them. Why Do Extroverts Rise Up the Corporate Ladder Faster (And More Easily) than Introverts Climbing the corporate ladder requires more than hard skills and hard work. It requires charisma and charm. While we know introverts can also be charismatic, extroverts tend to showcase their charms a little ore more often. They are generally known for being great with people, which is an essential prerequisite for a leader. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that extroverts have the propensity to get noticed, and hence promoted. They enjoy the limelight, and their personality traits in essence become the highlight. They take initiative and therefore appear more proactive. They seek praise and attention and will go the extra mile for it. On the flipside, introverts shy away from attention. Their personality traits are often overshadowed by their shyness. This lack of showmanship and warmth can lead to others thinking an introvert might not make a good people manager. Despite an amazing performance report, their potential remains more of a mystery. So, if you think extroverts are preferred for promotions because they are popular, you are probably correct. That doesn’t mean you need a total flip of personality to get that promotion you deserve. You just need to trade a few traits with extroverts. What Can Introverts Learn From Extroverts to Also Rise Up the Corporate Ladder Conscious efforts. You can’t just wake up one morning and decide to be an extrovert. It would be best if you had a game plan to beat your extrovert counterparts at their own game and become the corporate champ. Here is how you can do it. Step Out Of Your Comfort Zone Comfort zone is a great place â€" if you plan to rest. If you want to move ahead, you need to step out of it. You may not like the limelight, but you need to put yourself out there. If you think you can do something, raise your hand. If you think something needs to be done, initiate it. Don’t avoid a meeting with your supervisor, request one. Don’t dread the feedback; ask for it. Don’t just smile and nod, say hi and ask about their day. That brings us to the next point. Try to Make Friends You may not like to be a part of the copy room conversations or participating in the water cooler chitchat, but it is a great way to know people â€" or let them know you. Building relationships is seen as a crucial leadership quality as people are likely to follow leaders they personally connect with. Don’t excuse yourself out of social situations. Don’t avoid conversations, initiate them. At the end off the day, it’s all about business collaboration. If you aren’t comfortable talking to everyone, look for other introverts who might be struggling with the same problem. Building friendships within your work team is an important part of getting ahead, but just as important is befriending people in other departments. If you are trying to get ahead at work with an ambitious project, chances are you will need the support of other teams. Having friendly coworker can be the difference between your request for a favor getting ignored or completed right away. Ask for Help A study from the University of Missouri suggests that extroverts are successful because they have mentors. They have mentors because they seek help when needed. They tend to bond with their superiors by simply asking for help. It might seem intimidating, or inappropriate, to ask someone you don’t know well for advice, but it is very flattering to be asked for advice and many people will take it as a sign of respect. In most cases, those superiors are the people in charge of growth-related decisions. So, don’t be afraid to admit you can’t do something on your own, even if that’s to your boss. Ask for their guidance and help. Fake it Fake it till you make it. It is possible, and it is extremely helpful. Even extroverts do it all the time. Many aren’t as confident as they seem. While they manage to appear confident at all times, they are rarely arrogant. They are more approachable because they are easy to talk to. An introvert’s silence is often seen as arrogance. When you take yourself too seriously, people get too uncomfortable around you. Act more relaxed around people even if you don’t feel that way. Be a Team Player One of the biggest secrets behind extroverts’ success is their ability to think and act as a team. They are better at collaboration, and it can improve the overall productivity. It is why the corporate world favors this mentality. So, think of yourself as part of something bigger. Focus on your input and achievements as a team member and not just as an individual. Conclusion There is no one superior in the extrovert-introvert equation. Both have their fair share of positive traits and weaknesses. It is safe to say that introverts can learn a few things from extroverts, and vice versa. Rising up requires relationships and connections, as does finding better jobs. So, not only is it possible to adopt extrovert-based beliefs, it’s super crucial for your corporate success.
