How to Get an A in Physics: A Guide for Premedical, Science, and Engineering Students

by Shane Stadler

This book reveals the secrets to studying physics effectively and efficiently.

Physics is different from any other course you will take, and the time-tested methods for learning this subject are being lost. However, most students who earn an A in physics have somehow been taught these old, proven practices, or have rediscovered them on their own. This guide reveals the secrets these A-students have employed to train their minds to excel in physics at the college level and, if you employ them yourself, you will have the advantage of studying much more effectively and efficiently than the majority of your peers.In this book you will

• How to recognize and avoid common studying pitfalls

• How to read the textbook in the most effective way

• Problem-solving practices that will maximize your learning

• How to distinguish ineffective, passive activities from those that are active and more productive

• How to develop an efficient study routine that emphasizes the most productive learning activities

• How to review for exams in a way that is both effective and minimizes anxiety

The learning methods and principles prescribed in this book are applicable not only to college-level physics, but also to any STEM course offered in middle school, high school, and college, including math, chemistry, physics, engineering, biology, and computer science.
