Ok. I just changed my major to physics and tommorrow I'm taking a placement test to get into calc 1 w/ analytical geometry.
I have several questions:
1. Where should I eat tommorrow? There's this great donut place nearby (my favorites are the maple bacon donuts and the creme brulee donuts) that I could go to beforehand, but there's also this amaaaaazing chinese place (my favorite is the lemon chicken and their homemade egg rolls) that I could have afterward. It's just a matter of timing and energy benefits. Basically, does sugar help with test scores? If so, I'm going with the donuts.
2. The test covers everything from simple addition to precalc/trig, do you have any pieces of advice for the more difficult topics therein? Note, the test is only about 25-30 questions, so most topics won't be covered.
3. The vast majority of my mistakes are just stupid shit where I'm not really paying attention. For example: multiplying exponents instead of adding when using the something something property of exponents. Do you have any tips for not making those little errors?
Any other math tips are welcome. I'm not that smart but I've worked very hard for this and I hope to do well. Thank you in advance.
