In a completely not creepy way, my closet is open for your experimentation. I've also got an assortment of lab coats (all white, but different buttons and collar/lapel styles) for actual experimentation.

Win. I also have an assortment of dress shirts (mostly greens and blues) you can match them up with.

Also, schools will accept a portion of less qualified people who are minorities (whether in general or in the field of study) to increase their diversity. This is both good and bad, for several reasons.

To be fair, a huge majority of med and PhD students are Indian and Chinese. They have so many people in their country, most of them get sent away to e.g. the U.S. and U.K. to go to college and essentially steal seats from our own citizens. It isn't uncommon for them to also cheat on their exams (particularly in TOEFL or anything involving English) as I cannot even count how many times I come across these students who can barely speak or understand basic sentences, yet somehow got perfect scores in tests they had to have high-level English to even get through the question.

Genetic engineering can easily cure AIDS... but it's those same types of people who find that kind of approach to curing diseases unethical. There are currently many cures for cancers, but cancer isn't one disease; genetic engineering is again a really good approach to the inoperable and drug resistant cancers. The truth is, we have the knowledge and technology necessary to cure almost anything, it is just an appalling lack of scientific funding, mass misinformation/ignorance, unethical business practices, and stubborn adherence to outdated traditions that hold us back.

Statistics isn't actually mathematics (though there is mathematical statistics), and it depends on what they mean by analysis, e.g. complex analysis.

*some* scientists believe that, and their hypothesis is based on the evidence of otherwise unexplained gravitational effects. However, I'd stress that we are already well aware that our theories of gravity are incomplete at best, and there are at least two non-luminous, yet gravitationally active forms of matter/energy and/or a variable gravitational coupling "constant".

If I was a professor, and it was my fault that an assignment was lost, the student gets an A. I can't justify taking points away from someone if I am the reason I cannot properly review their work.

Maybe the Bombay (hh) blood type. I think they can display false positives for hemolytic anemia and similar blood disorders. They also routinely test as O type, since they are genetically unable to produce H antigen, a synthetic precursor and structural component to the A and B antigens. However, genotypically someone with hh type may be either A, B, or AB, which is why there is a lot of muck-uppery when checking their blood.

There are actually a bunch of so-called exotic blood types. But these are the most common ones.

Do essentially the opposite. 1/ arbitrarily small numbers grows larger the smaller the denominator. As x approaches 0, the limit approaches infinity, from either the right or the left. Therefore, you can demonstrate the other statement is also as true as any math statement can be (it is also not an indeterminate form).

I believe that you are confusing it with one of the indeterminate forms. 1/infinity is not indeterminate, the limit as x approaches infinity from either the right or the left yields the same result (I think that is what you were going for). For example, take the multiplicative inverse of some arbitrarily large number and then an arbitrarily larger number. You will notice that the value you get by choosing a larger number will always be smaller. Therefore, you can demonstrate that 1 (or any number you choose, for that matter) divided by infinity is zero, and can even actually define zero as such.
