    HELP!! Method of sections/joints

    i'm not a big fan of sections. it requires a fair bit of practice, and also requires the right circumstances, although, if u r good at it, it'll make things quicker. i prefer joint analysis. it's longer, but it's easier. u have to make sure that for each joint, it has to have only 2 unknown...

    Are there any microwaves in the Uni?

    if u could be bothered, goto engo cafe near the lib but it's sometimes a bit seedy... could try the elec eng common room... although, it can be a bit tempermental (ironic that the elec eng has a stuffed up microwave?)

    mechanical or mechatronic engineer?>!

    Both courses share fairly common subjects throughtout 1st and 2nd yr. Although, they do start to differentiate a bit, as i've noticed this yr. Mechatronics is a progressive field, and there is a lot going on with regards to research and development. I'm in second yr, and i've noticed that we hav...

    HELP!! Method of sections/joints

    3D Line Equation?

    yeah, the cartesian form may seem easier, but when u get to uni maths, u'll learn about vectors, and vectors are a much easier way of doing lines in 3D space plus, they use vectors in matricies, etc, so it's more standard to use it but u'll learn about that later =)

    The Procrastination Problem...

    I would advise to try and fine the best time at which u work, and stick to it. Make that time the time when u just negate all other destractions (ie. tv, music, people, phone, etc). And when u have like weekend long sessions of study, do it in 20min, half hour blocks, where those blocks are...

    hell easy!!! I thought it was a hell easy one. I was beging for a manhatten project question. I was thankful they didn't ask about the cloud chamber or who contributed what to the structure of the atom. i think i ended up writing about 7 pages for the manhatten project question just for the...

    Modern History Exam Thoughts (merged)

    Good time... I reckon the exam was pretty easy. WW1 was a breeze. Sooo good. Germany wasn't too bad. I did the conservative elite question, just rambled on how they wanted political power in Germany. Riefenstahl was standard. Indochina wasn't too bad either, just rambled on again. I did how US...

    Chemistry - General Thoughts

    Meh, not too bad.... I thought it was a pretty good test. Some weird questions in their that i found a bit curvey, but pretty good all round.

    How was the exam?

    Sooo Crap... I reckon it was a shit exam... sure the first 4 questions were pretty easy, but lets face it, that was expected right. Then came the last four that were just crap. Does anyone reckon they allocated marks stupidly? Like 1 mark for like a third of a page proof!!! It was stupid...
