if one forum helped you in one area, maybe another one will help you in this one.

Warrior's technical advice could be of much benefit for you. In addition to the internet, you may convince your parents to hire a tutor.

Above all, you must BELIEVE that you CAN, and you WILL, achieve whatever degree of competence in math and physics that you aspire to. Your limitations are just that; yours. But like anything else that belongs to you, you may take it or leave it at will.

The key to life, is to find out what you want to do, then finding out how to do it.

Believe in yourself, have confidence, see the target, know you can get it...and, accept help from others. Get 'er done.

There are two thing you must do to be good at math and physics:

1) Work problems until your eyes bleed. Nothing will get you further than this, except #2.
2) Work problems until your eyes bleed WITH people who really understand the concepts and can explain them to you if you get stuck. Aka, good study group.

^^ this. What I used to do in maths was go through sh1tloads of test papers, whilst sitting next to the advanced maths kids in the library, and ask them to explain questions I didn't know to me. It's a sure fire formula for success in Maths.

Thanks amigos, your advice has been of great help.I'm now in a study group with some two maths and physics geniuses..for some reason, i understand em better than my teacher, oh and my gf is a master so i also study with her(swallowed ma pride)

I invested in a Pulse Smart Pen for college. I graduated as Valedictorian of my class. If you can get one of those and use it it will help tremendously.

Absolutely. It's all practice. Do as many problems as you have the answers to. All of the ones you don't have the answers to, seek help. It's not about memorizing, it's about having as much experience with the problems as possible so that it builds your confidence and intuition. Then during an exam you can go with your gut which saves time.
