Try typing in the name of a college (the abbreviation is fine, too.) It's also interesting that it can not only perform integration, but also tell you the steps it took to get to the answer.


Despite all the misses I'm pretty impressed it knew about my university http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=University+of+Skövde at all, considering it's tiny even by Swedens standards.

My alma mater doesn't show up as "U of MN," which gets me a calculus problem, but "University of Minnesota" disambiguates nicely among the different campuses. But the information about the flagship campus hits some good information, but misses some too. Try your favorite university for the terms

[name of university] cost of attendance

or

[name of university] admission rate

or

[name of university] SAT range

or other things that people actually look up about colleges.
