Exam topics: everything!
workload:
as all 4mc mods, it takes ten hours per week. however, i found myself doing way much more, but it is extremely useful for future mods as it teaches, at its core,
the method of thinking when approaching physics at this level. i have done almost 300 Learning questions, practice, tutorial, mastering and all that combined, and I still
think there’s more to learn.Needless to say, pc1141 is a Necessary Evil for physics, don’t take it unless you wish unnecessary Suffering on yourself or you’re a physics major.
Then again, the Objective of the module is to gain a firm foundation on classical physics and mechanics, which will guarantee you a Turbocharged headstart to learning in nus.
All in all, i give the module a 8/10, And would definitely do it again to Learn so much more.
