just wondering how people found the phys1131 course

 

[sunny]

Hard, when I did it.

Very Hard, Could not follow Joe's pace. Could not apply the formulae.

 

[maths > english]

how hard is phys1231 compared to phys1131?

IMO it is less difficult than 1A, like in 1B you will do relativity and if you able to cope with your lecturer (i.e. Joe for me) it should be alrite. Like if you have Joe, read the notes 2 weeks before hand or something or else you're mind wonders off

Heh...doing Higher 1A was enough for me to not do Higher 1B...

 

[Li0n]

some people *have* to do 1231 sunny

 

[sunny]

Yeh....poor souls..

 

[Li0n]

yeah in 1231 relativity, modern phys and doppler were all gift marks,
in 1131 i think only kinematics were gift (at least thats the last part of the course i understood)

i was totally opposite
i found electricity and magnetism much easier than mechanics..
perhaps abit of elec1011 helped out

If you do 1231 Higher 1b, you might as well do 1241 Higher 1b (special)

 

[Li0n]

yeah we had newbry, but i didn't go to lectures
or tuts for that matter


dont you need good marks for the higher 1 B special thing?

 

[gman03]

Heh...doing Higher 1A was enough for me to not do Higher 1B...

2004 physics was a bit different,.... higher + normal 1B have same lecture and exam questions... only difference is tut allocation.....

attend everything and you will go far
