<p>I aced both my tests in Physics 2 / Electricity and Magnetism. It’s weird because while I thought the tests were pretty easy, I still think that E&M is conceptually harder than Mechanics. The problem here is that I still doubt my knowledge about what I have learned so far / what concepts the class has covered. Acing the tests only proved to me that I’m a good test taker; not that I actually understand the material in its greatest depth. Anyone else ever do well on tests and still not feel as confident in their understanding of the material?</p>
<p>It sounds like you’re probably better at the stuff than you think. I think it’s unusual for a smart, thoughtful person to really feel like they know a tough subject by heart.</p>
<p>I don’t think anyone really understands the material in E&M.</p>
