The physics calculations are not difficult but there is more emphasis on memorisation and regurgitation rather than the understanding of the different concepts.
This mod has almost 0 workload as there are no tutorials for students to do, the quizzes are all mcq and the assignment is relatively easy, only difficult part is the pyps are quite outdated so might have lack of practice when taking finals.
Biggest pain about this mod is that there is no clear structure/outline to the content taught. Mod split into 3 broad topics taught by 3 different profs, second prof is the worst and no one can follow what he is even teaching. The finals ended up testing some concepts that were only briefly touched on in lessons.
Can consider taking as gerpe sts if you can tahan the very very dry 3h lectures.May 25, 2021
