Why not mechanics?

Sixth sense can be bypassed if you've come across the same question type before. Experience can make a big difference. It's like people saying you can't study for the UMAT exam. If I encounter a particularly difficult type of sequence question for the first time it might take me 1-2 mins to do...

Generally if you're working with a graph involving 1/f(x) then where f(x)=0 the graph of 1/f(x) will have an asymptote. Another thing to consider in terms of oblique asymptotes is the behaiviour of f(x) as x approaches infinity As x ---> infinity , 1/x ---> 0 and x + 1/x ---> x Hence...

I hate the exponential difficulty around the 97+ range. We need less motivated full mark students. It'd make a lot of lives much easier.

In your sleep geoff :p.

Thanks man, I can only hope (or perhaps I could work too... maybe that'd help :P).

I'm thinking that 94+ should be possible but I'd really like 98's or 99's given the courses I'm looking at. This year aint going to pass quickly...

Today's chem exam was pretty painful. Especially when you have to add the indicator: drip . . drip . . . drip

Physics is the bomb.

You'd probably be best off citing the central postulates of relativity then giving a couple of their implications. 1. First postulate (principle of relativity) The laws of the universe are the same regardless of inertial frame of reference. 2. Second postulate (invariance of c) The...

He used the quadratic formula to get an equation in y, since you're integrating along the y-axis. x²-2x+y=0 x = (-b ±√[b² - 4ac])/2a where a= 1 , b = -2 , c= y EDIT: The alternative method is to complete the square: -y = x² - 2x -y =...

This one :D.

Me too. There are too many choices for the future. First stop is uni and medicine but I'd like to fit in some philosophy and pure math if I can (and a smattering of physics and psychology should time permit). On the side I'd like to play a bit of music. A platinum album would be nice... and...

I'm banking on not having an exam the last day of my trials... If I do, then that really sucks.

Chemistry :p

The fact that you have a low ranking amongst a cohort of "really smart" people probably means that you aint too bad at the subject. You need to put things into perspective. If you're at a selective school or have a really talented year then you have to think in terms of the state rather than...

Use the factor theorem and the fact that the factors are going to be negative (or complex) since all the coefficients > 0. take (x+1)(3x³+8x²+7x+2) and consider 3x³+8x²+7x+2 by itself when x=-1 ------> 3x³+8x²+7x+2 = -3 +8 -7 +2 = 0 hence 3x³+8x²+7x+2 = (x+1)(3x²+5x+2) =...

We're doing forensic :D. I'm sorry for all of you who have to do shipwrecks :(.

Thanks dude.

What does the TSP change? Does it allow someone more freedom within their degree as well as advanced programs?
