Sorry, but I really don't think it's your place to tell me how to revise for my exams.
Mr F says: When someone flys the woe-is-me flag with remarks like "Exam's in an hour and a half anyway. Oh well." then I think the observation I made is justified.
I have been revising for this exam for MONTHS now, and the threads I posted last night were just a last-minute attempt to iron out a few creases.
Mr F says: It's a pretty major crease.
I do understand the theory of it, I just have problems reducing it to one equation, which is what I wanted explaining.
Mr F says: It would have been helpful to say that in the first place. Then you might have got precisely the explanation you apparently needed much sooner.
I know you won't care,
Mr F says: To coin a quote, "I really don't think it's your place to tell me" whether or not I care ....
but the exam went well and this didn't matter in the end 'cause the question I was given had real eigenvalues (which I find easier to get my head around), so hooray!
Mr F says: Good for you. I hope your result reflects that. (Not that I care, of course ....
