the type of learning u'll do is quite similar to prelim phys - not that many calculations (but enough).. but there's much more emphasis on the social aspects of physics - how this and this impacts society and the environment, the advantages, disadvantages of this and this. basically it's a LOT of memorising.. and as for the angles - don't get too worried.. there are quite a few of those odd topics on phys that no-one really understands - and yet half the time it doens't matter cuz with a bit of rote learning u can fudge ur way thru any exam.
