Hey Everyone,
I'm a HSC year 12 student and I am interested in studying electrical engineering at UNSW. I've been recently checking out the UNSW electrical engineering society website, and have found some study resources. I decided to check out some stuff that I might be doing next year, but this was the biggest mistake I've made in 2021. I'm panicking a lot ever since I found this. I attempted some questions, and could not understand anything and have ZERO clue on what to do for the questions. I am not confident at all that I'll be able to keep up with the electrical engineering content next year. This stress caused by me panicking about the insane difficulty of the UNSW electrical engineering course is way bigger than the stress I have for HSC. I sometimes can't believe that they say only HSC physics and HSC maths ext 1 is assumed knowledge because HSC level physics and maths ext 1 is so much easier than the first year electrical engineering at UNSW.
I can't stop worrying about how badly I'll perform next year as I can't understand anything at all. I feel like I've been lied to about how hard the course really is.
In high school at the moment, I'm topping physics and have been consistently scoring above 80 in ext 1 maths, so I always thought that I'll be fine for engineering at UNSW as these two subjects are the only assumed knowledge for UNSW engineering. After seeing the past papers for first year electrical engineering final exams, I've experience a huge shock - and I doubt I'll be able to get close to passing the course.
This question gave me the biggest panic attack (I don't know how anyone is supposed to interpret this lol):
I have heard of Thevenin's theorem, Norton's theorem, Mesh analysis and Nodal analyse before, but I have no clue what they are and how to use them. It would be greatly appreciated if someone could please explain to me what they are and how to use them?
