When your instructor gives you a list of topics covered on the upcoming exam, the most common instinct is to memorize the information needed for the exam so you’ll be prepared. This is a poor strategy in the short and long term because if the exam is well-written & comprehensive, you’ll fail to solve most of the comprehensive questions that applies the known information in unique circumstances.

Instead, you should go into the textbook and read the chapters which your homework covered, look at YouTube videos covering said topic in detail, and spend some time quietly pondering the material while you do other things like walking, resting, or showering.

I also have plenty of online resources available to assist you towards understanding the topic conceptually and deeply!

Video: How to Read Equations in Math & Science

Thank you all for attending my first-ever live webinar last week covering ‘How to Read Equations in Math and Science’! I appreciate each of you for donating time out of your night to strengthen your understanding of math and science by learning how to read equations as relationships between variables!

In this webinar, we went over common issues surrounding traditional algebra education along with ways to read common equations seen in science like linear momentum, kinetic energy, and the ideal gas equation. We also discussed strategies for plotting these equations in order to gain a stronger intuition of their meaning.

The hardest part about math isn’t the raw calculations: it’s understanding what the math means when rearranging and graphing functions. Most students aren’t trained to interpret the math from a qualitative perspective which is why many students who are ‘good at math’ struggle in introductory chemistry, physics, and engineering courses.

That’s why I’ve created the Ultimate Algebra Guide for Science & Engineering Majors which covers all of the relevant concepts from algebra, trigonometry, and precalculus courses that are applicable for science & engineering majors condensed into a 700+ page guide!
