I guess its what i found in my class is that there all duds. They think they know what going on and then exam times on and they don't know it. Thats why i reckon the course is easy cause easier to be ranked first.

Anyone else incountered this? or is it like your class is competitive?

Re: Engineering=Easy

actually our class is a bit of both. the positions for the top 5 or so are really competitive and the rest of the class are just average.

Re: Engineering=Easy

Ahh no. The guy comming first in my engineering course is on 97%.
Second is on 90%...

It's pretty competitive over here.

Engineering is definately harder than physics.

Re: Engineering=Easy

Everyone in my class of ~16 is really competitive, exept for the last guy... Man, i used to be like 4th and now i'm 8th the saddest thing is that the y11 accelerated students are always the best...

Re: Engineering=Easy

thats wat i really dont like... big headed geneuses who ace every test, and come top of the class without even trying... and then redicule you for getting a lower mark then them, when you put your heart and soal into getting the best mark you can with what you got.

Re: Engineering=Easy

Engineering=hard.

I find that the syllabus is very different to other subjects such as physics and chem. I don't know what I need to know.

Re: Engineering=Easy

Lets just hope that the exam on Wednesday is going to be relatively easy. Ive tried doing all the past papers, going to my teacher for advice, and getting as much information from these forums as I can... But I still dont quite feel fully prepared.

Does anyone else feel the same?

Re: Engineering=Easy

Maths is a big part of Engineering, but thats it, its only a part. . . There are many other different parts to engineering that just baffles me...

Ive tried doing practice questions for Engineering on the Board of Studies website. Theyre only munti-choice questions, but theyre good practice. You guys should try it too
