Are we really trying?

We need to work a minimum of 15 hours a week. Read the designated chapters beforehand and do your homework on time. Try to solve extra problems that are not part of the homework. Ask as many questions as possible. And make sure you take notes when in class and when you study by yourself.

I cannot emphasis this point enough: You need to connect your pen with the paper. Let your thoughts flow out into the paper and allow the math, words and the figure flow back into you. This process strengthens your logical thinking. You will gradually get used to it and you will start to think like a physicist.

Talk constantly to your classmates about physics. Consult a specific problem with them. You will cherish those moments for rest of your life.
