how many of you think that physics is sooooooooooooooo hard. That Class requires so much work and so tricky? Is there any book out there that will make my life simple

Physics is one of those things you just gotta bend over and take it.. the best thing to do would probably to seek out your TA or professor.. what they say in class will probably end up on the tests.

If physics is hard wait until you have to match the drugs with the bugs and the bugs with the drugs. Pharmacology makes F=ma look like a piece of cake.

you have to break physics down into its basic concepts.

go sentence by sentence if you have to.

go to TA office hours and your professor's office hours to see how they simplify the problem and solve it.

once you get the concepts, physics wont be as tough as you think it is.

Physics is 90% conceptual and 10% mathematical. The previous poster who suggested going through each problem line by line is very right. You've got to figure out what you know, what you're looking for, and what equations you've got to play with. Sometimes looking at what equations you've got is all you'll need. It's also important to make sure you're variables are in the appropriate units.

If you can't understand the lectures (I couldn't) spend a day a week going over the chapter for that weeks material. Make notes, work through the example problems, and don't give up. I did this exact thing (horrible prof.) and I got an A+.

Good luck, and don't stress.
