I'm so jealous - I have 3 exams next week! What unit(s) of study will you be doing?

Based on the quiz ... meaning that I'll be tortured a second time :( Thanks :D

For PDEs, I'm just gonna re-do the tutorials (actually, do them for the first time, since I didn't have time due to assignments and quizzes). :frown2: Did you hear any tips (official or unofficial) on how to prepare for the exam for PDEs? :frown2:

For two of the units of study that I'm doing this semester, I have no past exams/sample exams at all :frown2:

Thanks! I'll definitely start speaking to some academics by the end of the year or early next year.

Unfortunately, I think this year's my last chance to apply for a vacation scholarship, because I'm expecting to graduate in July next year. I spoke with the person in charge of vacation scholarships for my School, and he said that the applicants had a HD average, whereas I only had a mid D...

Congratulations! I'm so jealous. :cry:
