My teacher had a bit of a monotone, so I had a hard time staying awake in the class. When test time came, I tried to learn all the material and ended up hopelessly confused. I started off like this, so when I finally learned how to take notes and pay attention in the class, I had gaps in the fundamental concepts that made it difficult for me. We never finished E & M (semester 2) because I guess my teacher has to create a better lesson plan (and we had tons of snow days, which I’m not complaining about). Also, I never understood what directions the forces were supposed to be for pulleys?! And there are too many equations…
