Engineering: Material Sciences 1M03
Panick attack!!!

I have almost finished reading the assigned chapters from the book, but in all honesty, it all seems to be going over my head.

Any advice from fellow Engineers who are currently taking or have taken this course on how you are going about studying?!

You can bring a cheat sheet, in case you forgot.

Dude, you are wasting your time reading the book. They give you more information that you require. All you have to do is go over the given assignments, mid terms and notes. If you search on DC++ There should be more than enough past mid terms and assignments to cover everything in the course.
