Why out of all the subjects for me, why I can't get my head around physics??
Can anyone else relate with me ?
I know what you mean I have trouble remembering equations and using the right one for the right question it’s an absolute nightmare I don’t know how I’m going to pass it 🤦*♀️

Well physics is really applied maths. I’m personally good at all 3 as physics seems to be halfway between maths and chemistry. Do you struggle with understanding formulas and rearranging them or more so with memorising units and defintions?

More with how to use formulas and the basics of physics I struggle with a lot

That’s interesting. Perhaps spending time trying to understand why some formulas exist and where they come from rather than just trying to remember them? Like maybe use the internet to do more background reading on the basics.

I think you should talk to your teacher about this, I know they can be a bit useless sometimes but it really doesn't hurt to ask and could benefit you.

Also, videos can be good to visualise what’s going on in scenarios. You could look on YouTube for videos explaining topics you find challenging.
