Don't have TF2, but I'm playing DAOC atm.

Play CS: S later.

We can make a mathmo guild and do scrims/5v5s.

Lol I really haven't! Physics was lovely last year but this year it's dire. It even says in my physics textbook: 'Don't expect to understand all of this, just learn it!' How the heck is that any good? That's what I love about maths, for nearly everything, I understand it (whether I can do it or not...:P) It doesn't help with our useless teacher

I see from your profile you didn't take FM? How comes?

Thankies Your university applications going ok?

physics a2 is pretty ****, just learning to use formulas tbh, bit retarded. but if you do m3 like i do, you'd learn where all the formulas and stuff come from and generally understand them a lot better. i don't even need to pay attention in physics class. cheers M3

first module of physics A2 is a mix between a dumbed down version of M3 and a couple of things from AS chemistry.

As nfixlol said, the only way you can understand where the formulae come from is if you do some more advanced maths. For example, to solve the SHM equation and get sin and cos, you need to know how to solve second-order differential equations. If you're just doing physics, it doesn't really matter where they come from
