Gus

While I have nothing against the name Gus, it really doesn't strike me as a spectacular name. I am a high schooler, and I have four classmates (among a class of about 150) named Gus. I think at least three are nicknames for August/Augustus/Gustav, but I still feel like it's an alarming number of Gus's. Is Gus really that great of a name/nickname?

Would it be weird to write thank you/good luck notes to graduating seniors?

I'm a freshman, there's a couple of seniors who have had a pretty big impact on me this year. I want to write them thank you notes, but I'm unsure how it would be taken. One I know quite well, the other slightly more fleetingly. Thoughts?

How harsh is the curve going to be?

I felt the test was pretty easy (West Coast) but made some stupid errors looking back. I'm pretty confident I got at least a 75/108, but perhaps not much higher. Is a 5 still possible? I feel like it was so easy to the point where the curve is going to be horrible.

West Coast limit didn't exist, right?

f(x) didn't have a left hand limit, so the limit didn't exist, right? I keep seeing people say it was 3/2, but direct substitution doesn't work if the limit doesn't exist

Apologies if this is the wrong flair, but I was looking at my school's Instagram decision page, and there were at least five people going to the same liberal arts college across the US from us with a population about the size of our high school. Acceptance rate <30%. Someone even left a comment about how it was a pipeline from our high school to there. Obviously a ton of people are going to our state schools, and I'm not surprised about that, but mostly every other college that showed up only had about one or mayyyybe two people. Any idea what's up?

Hi! I'm in a kind of beginner-intermediate orchestra and we're playing an arrangement of Merry Go Round of Life from Howl's Moving Castle. There are a bunch of these descending chromatic scales (I think that's what they are?) and they are relatively high up for me, as well as pretty fast. Does anyone have any tips on how to finger them? These are a few sections I'm struggling with.

Also just general tips on how to play them would be much appreciated!
