So how has PHYS 111 been treating you so far? I know that you guys recently took an exam, I hope it went well. If you read my last post then the following will be a repeat.
Don't lose hope if you didn't do as well as you hoped. You can make up for it.
Review your mistakes! A lot of passed concepts will come back at some point.
Seek help. There are tutors that will offer assistance. Your instructor will help as well.
On another note, have any of you ever been interested in the field of Biomedical Engineering? The reason I mention this is because many of you are studying biology, medicine, etc. and were interested in their applications involving physics. As you all know, I am studying engineering/math/physics, but I'm not such a fan of Biology. Biomedical Engineering puts engineering and medicine into one field. Now I'm not a fan of wikipedia, but you can check out the page on Biomedical Engineering; it will blow your mind. It discusses the topics on surgery, medical imaging, genetic and tissue engineering, and a few others. None of this would be around if it wasn't for physics :)
Enjoy the week!

ReplyDeleteHi Peter! Just seen your post, but thank you for asking. PHYS 111 is going well so far. I did a lot better than I thought I would do on the test. It seems that the Homework problems are so much harder and I think thats why I was super nervous! I am hoping that I do even better on the next exam! Are the physics tutors always in the library or just certain days do you know?
Class is going well. Easy stuff!

ReplyDeleteIm doing well in the class and Im really enjoying physics.

ReplyDeleteI'm doing a lot better than I thought I was! I'm ready for the next semester. Will you still be tutoring then as well?
I enjoyed the wikipedia article. I especially like the idea of tissue engineering and neural engineering.

I must say that physics is much better than what I was expecting. I was dreading this semester all summer because of this class, but as it turns out i do enjoy this class better thank some of my other ones!
ReplyDeleteThis class has been a lot better than I anticipated which is good since I will be in Physics 2 next semester :)
ReplyDeleteBiomedical Engineering is a field that is rapidly expanding. I work in a busy ER and doctors are constantly wanting medical images instantly. Small, handheld ultrasound machines have been developed for medical staff to use, leading to instantaneous results for doctors. This is one simple example of the use of biomedical engineering.
Peter-are you interested in working in biomedical engineering?
Physics class is enjoyable especially anything involving physics in chemistry.
