Yes I believe I did pretty average on the quiz- basically a concept quiz isn't numbers heavy and asks questions similar to concept question questions I replied to @berkeman with and also simple mathematical calculations (like calculate the rotational inertia over an axis, convert velocity from...

Yes, I suppose it's a good idea to set aside time to read the chapter prior to class. Usually I'm still struggling with the previous chapter, that I don't want to start the next chapter until I get more of a grasp on it. I guess I just have to work on my mindset.

Yes that is true! I have learned not to start studying last minute- and that's why I started studying on Friday when my teacher introduced the chapter to us. I had 3 days to study for this conceptual quiz, which wasn't really supposed to be hard at all (according to him). And that's exactly what...

Before going into the test, I had done spent a good amount of time on these 10 concept questions at the back of the book in addition. Among these I had been able to solve 7/10 before going into the test. Here are 2/7 I solved: My work for those questions: A question similar to one of the...

I'm taking AP Physics C Mechanics in school. And I have spent the most time studying for physics than any of my other classes or extracurriculars. I study by doing reading the book, working out sample problems, doing homework problems my teacher assigns us, the concept questions at the end...

Thank you!

I first took physics in 9th grade for a single semester, and got a sem B much to my dismay. I did a lot of practice and I still couldn't understand the concepts. And now, I'm determined to get an sem A in AP Physics C Mechanics and Electromagnetism. But my first quarter just ended, and I ended...
