(Read question and try to remember reasoning that gets to the answer)- Prepare your formula sheet.- Take the practice exam.- It is no good to memorize answers. You have to understand and remember how you got the answers.10/11/2009 M.Dubson PHYS1120 Notes ©University of Colorado at BoulderR1R2I IR3IIVRbigRsmallIsmallIbig-V sameacross both R'sI2I3I1I1junction
