It's over my head.

SHIT ENGINEERING IS GOING TO FUCK ME HARD.

Math exams for engineering students are usually not as hard as those for math students because they are not in your major courses. They're usually a bit tougher than the one posted. But keep in mind that you would have studied for them. You should be fine.

At least that's how it is here.

Studied?! I attended one of the worst schoolsin Queensland, they curriculum was almost nonexistent. There was no studying, only discussion on how to afford that weekend's cheap beer and goon.

You may think this is another one of Spike's classic hyperbolic jokes. I assure you it is not.

I SHOULD HAVE MADE SOCIOLOGY HIGHER ON MY PRIORITY LIST BECAUSE I WOULD DESTROY THAT

FREAKING OUT NOW

Some nob head of a God decided it would snow, but not enough for me to miss work..........I woke up late and will miss the first hour anyway, but fuck come on, if you're going to snow on us at least do it properly!

Alright, first chill then go get exams from previous years and study the solutions. Most exams at university level are very similar to previous years because it is not east to "create" new questions.

I THINK YOU'LL FIND MY DILEMMA IS QUITE SIMPLE. I DON'T OWN A VAGINA OR OWN ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO HAVE A VAGINA SO I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THESE "COMPLICATIONS" ARE.

MEN ONLY FEEL FOUR EMOTIONS: HUNGER, ANGER, HORNY AND DRUNK.

OK boys, come next year if you wish to visit NY on the Queen Mary 2 you may watch your Chelsea games in their bars & lounges.

Book early & plan your days on board around PL fixture list.

The thing is, you never ever use those stupid equations!! Only equations I've used so far are equations surrounding ohms law to find out max load of a certain building or luminare calcs and to some extent finding the what the area of my cable should be when running from the MSB to DB(x)

Spike, maths is only one paper, takes you six months. You'll never derive or integrate again after that.

Yeah you won't use gradients and partial derivatives in contracting, but I always thought that math teaches a way of thinking and solving problems not just equations. You need to have a "mathematical" mind if you are to be a successful engineer.

Plenty I assume.

I think my way of thinking is too abstract and lateral for mathematics.

Architecture I think is where my passion lies, but I don't think I'll be accepted into the course.

I design, I'm a consultant.

Yeah u are right, it does give you to tools to go out and solve problems. I love maths cause there is only one answer! Haha

With mathematics it seems you either are good at it or you're not. Since school, I always find some stuff in math very obvious while others find it extremely difficult. Luckily, you don't have to be an excellent mathematician to be an engineer.

I always hated civics and economy and literature because I could answer everything right and still barely get 14/20
