Tips and tricks
Tips and tricks
Taking a 5-week class in any subject can be daunting and will require a lot of time and dedication. If this is your first science class, or your first in a long time, this will probably be quite the challenge!
Follow these tips and trick, and I know you will be successful in this class:
Print or write out the course schedule - know when we have exams and the topics on each exam so you are prepared.
Schedule time to watch the lecture videos. You will need to spend about 10 hours watching lectures for each exam.
If you watch the videos over the weekend, you can use our time in Lab as study time.
Work smarter, not harder.
Take notes while watching lectures and bring them to our Review Sessions before each Exam.
