0.4 Scared by the topics in the first week?
- Use the Maths Learning Centre (further down the link).
Contrary to what you might think at first glance, you can also go there for questions about „related subjects“. There you will find students from higher semesters who can help you with homework and problems with the lecture material. They can also give you tips on how to study.
- Try to do as many exercises as possible
- Try to stick with it and study and read in a timely manner. The semester picks up quickly…
- Form study groups / join study groups.
BUT: first try the exercise yourself and get creative, then ask fellow students!
