Princeton Review Physics Book... wow...

<p>The stuff in this review book is ****ing me off a bit, at times. I'm studying for Physics C Mechanics and doing some of the free response questions. I thought I knew the material well, but now the guys from PR are asking me to solve complex integrals with natural logarithms and be able to use Pythagorean identities and contend with huge, ridiculous system's of equations...</p>

<p>I'm struggling more with solving things mathematically than I am with the actual problems...</p>

<p>I thought that the only real stuff I would have to worry about math-wise would be the basic derivatives and integrals of functions like y = x^3 + 5x etc</p>

<p>I really hope the test isn't like the PR book. That book almost completely ruined my motivation to study for that test, and some of the math just got too tedious for the non-calculator MC.</p>

<p>I guess I'll find out how it compares in one hour!</p>

<p>From what I heard, those test prep companies give harder tests than the actual tests. If they don't lower your morale, you are much more likely to pass.</p>
