How can I improve my physics problem-solving skills?

[Iftekhar Uddin]

I enjoy physics but deciding what calculations to do in certain situations is my limiting factor. It doesn't help that many problems can be done in different ways depending on what information is provided.

I'm trying to transfer to my state's school for computer science and really need an A in my physics II course (studying electrical fields right now) and I saw a thread of a student getting their question answered in a helpful guiding way so I decided to make an account!
