AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on seeking past exams or practice materials for the Physics for Engineering 1 Section 2014 course, emphasizing the value of familiarizing oneself with exam formats to enhance study effectiveness. The participant notes a previous experience with similar courses, suggesting that understanding key aspects through past exams can ease the preparation process. Recommendations include working through end-of-chapter questions from the textbook, particularly focusing on conceptual questions, which tend to be challenging. Additionally, reaching out to fellow students or the professor for access to previous exams is advised as a strategy for better preparation.

I am currently taking Physics for Engineering 1 Section 2014.
My first Exam is coming up and was wondering if anyone has an actual Exam they have taken in this class or a good practice Exam.
If anyone is wondering why i am asking, i did this all the way up to Calc 3 and found other teachers test are quit similar and the best way to actually hit key aspects to study; thus making actual Exams quit a bit easier to understand.

Thank you, i listed the book i am using. Chapters 1-4

Serway/Jewett always provides a few conceptual questions throughout the chapters and at the end. Have you asked other students at your school or your professor about looking at a previous exam?
 
Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
