My teacher doesn't let us use formula sheets. But we can use calculators.
Yeah you're right. I understand the calculus used in calc based physics.
But when it's only equations it doesn't make sense.

Anyway, from experience, real engineering is nothing like your exams. You
can use books, calculators, matlab, and you have weeks and months not 1
hour. Hold on there Joachim. Get through it, and the stuff you already do
at HackPGH is what real engineering is really like. Its hands on, and all
about experience and intuition.
However, calculus 2 in particular is very important for the rest of your
engineering studies. Especially partial fractions and being able to do
certain kinds of integrals. When you get into fourier series and transform
and laplace frequency domain analysis. So its not useless, its just not
nearly as hard in the real world.

I agree with Simon, trig identities identify as enemies. If I was aloud
an equation sheet this test wouldn't be that hard. But I have to memorize
everything.

Hello mechanical minded folks. I will not be able to come to
mechanical club today. I have a calculus 2 test on Monday and I
need to study really hard for it.
Best,
