How do I memorise/learn derivations for engineering

Hi.

So I have about 2 weeks till I am resitting my university exams. For one of the modules I am resitting, there are a bunch of derivations I need to learn (I do aerospace engineering).

Are there any tips on how I do this?

thanks :smile:

Keep practicing doing the derivations and make sure you understand the underlying theory. I am assuming they are all from first principles.
It’s better to understand the mathematics & physics principles separately, then in the exam you can apply the physics law and break down the problems into the form needed to answer the question.

But to learn the key physics laws & principles i found repetition & focus worked best for me.
