Uni exams?

I've got ones for Vector Calculus & Matrices, Electrodynamics, and Statistical Mechanics

Not started revising yet.

Ohh we're quite similar then.. I'm doing engineering maths 1, which is matrices, complex numbers, calculus, vectors and all that, which I've done before but I can't remember much :frown:

And the physics ones are Electromechanical systems and Mechanics of solids.. I'm so screwed in these 2!

Materials is more reading and remembering though, about how materials are manufactured and how strong they are etc.

(Time to log off TSR, blast some Michael Jackson in the speakers and get down to work!)

So glad I am not alone. I made a plan for 6 hours a revision a day that I knew I wouldn't be able to stick to, and woe behold, I barely do an hour a day. I have uni exams.

I have no exams this January- they've decided to let us do all of ours in May. Just great! It means that we'll have even more to revise rather than splitting it up.. but never mind.

Not really. I need to look over things and maybe learn a few essay answers, but nothing I can't manage. Ok, that makes me feel better :p:

We had MCTs last year, but this year are all essays. For our MCTs we had to read specific chapters from books that they set, is yours like this?

If so, just read everything and make sure that you understand it.. write notes, and maybe meet up with some of your course mates and explain some of the key concepts and theories.

are the mcq's quite straight forward?
would simply reading the content be enough to trigger your memory?
