last leg

Just like in every race, it’s the last leg that counts. This is the point when every competitor give his/her all. Similarly, in school, it’s also the most crucial portion of the year when the most deserving individuals get recognized and separated from the rest, from the mediocre.

But, just like in a race, the last leg is also the hardest. This is why I’m urging my students to study and study like there’s no tomorrow. After all, there’s no school to look forward to after the finals. It’s just vacation – glorious wonderful vacation.

So for my students in Environmental Science, here is a little something to help you guys in your study. If that’s not enough, you can get additional notes from this. Then again, if you’d desire to know a little bit more, wiki is an adequate place to go to.

As for my freshmen students who are asking for more exercises, try solving these numbers. Try solving them fast. It’s not enough that you know how to proceed. Remember, final exams are given with time constraints.

For the rest, good luck! Whatever happens, I’ll see you at the finish line.

It’s almost testing time. A few more days and then we’ll see who moves on and who unfortunately stays behind. For those, who would like to get more practice before diving in, you can download projectile exercises here and some fluid exercises here as well.

That’s as far as I can go in extending a helping hand. The rest is up to you. More problems are available in the book!

Good luck!
