Yeah, thats true. This year in particular probably has the highest number of drop outs for cosmology. Its pretty difficult and consumes so much of your time. Started of with about 33 and now its down to 23? Most of us are barely passing on with still 70% of the course yet to be completed (exam...

Go cosmo! ****loads of work, but its fun. I dont think the expression of interest form is out yet. Wait a couple of months. You basically fill in this form, go to the information day in november (where you watch past students graduate) and then formally apply. You wont know if you made it in...

The UMAT was okay. I thought there wouldve been more shape finding questions instead of the sequence types. Section 1 was a killer for me in terms of time, had to guess the last two. Had to go to the toilet so many times too... :o I was there at 8am, seat 248 (I think)

Just some additional info which could be useful. If you have a footnote and then in the very next footnote refer to the same source, you can use "ibid" plus the relevant page numbers (ibidem = in the same place) instead of typing the exact reference up again. Theres also op. cit. (opus...

Cramming only works if youve learned the material or payed attention in class the first time around. To properly cram (if there is such a thing) you need to give yourself about a week before the exam. Get your notes in order and start reading them over and over again. Then just work through past...

Bah... same here.

2-hyrdroxypropane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid :p Its easy to remember the name if you know what it looks like. I did a past paper and one of the questions asked to draw the structure of citric acid for a mark. Thats how I learnt it :)

Thanks for the offer but ive already got my own summaries (which i also think are quite nice) ;)

Just look up isaac newton, it all started with him.

I dont think you need to know about ultrafilters and nanofilters. Ive got this worksheet that my teacher gave me and it says that "ultrafiltration removes most colour and all viruses while nanofitration removes hardness" Thats pretty much the extent of the information give.

Its one of those topics where you just have to get a text and write your own summaries :) tough break i know.

Synthetic detergents use the SO₃- (anionic detergent) as the hydrophilic part of the molecule, while soaps use a carboxyl COO- group. Soaps are ineffective in hard water as they form an insoluble precipitate with calcium or magnesium ions. Synthetic detergents however do not form a...

they do cancel it out the 2cosu and because 4sin^2(u) = 2(1-cos2u), integrating w.r.t.u you get 2u - sin2u = 2u - 2sinucosu Also, because its an indefinite integral, you gotta resubstitute back in terms of x. so remembering your substitution x = 2sinu :. u = sin^-1(x/2)

Bloody arnolds... dont they have anything better to do? *sigh*

the chemistry one is solution

*Smacks head* Oh I see my error now! thanks :)

Okay, now im lost. Umm, if theres 70% concentration remaining, then dont you use the concentration that reacted (30%) to determine the concentration of products thats been created?

Thank god your back. Actually, i have no idea what the substitution method is, i never learnt it. The reason why i said n² = 1 was because for some unknown reason, i always assumed n was an integer. Maybe i should go learn this method. Thanks for that :)

You mean minus the reciprocal of the gradient ;)
