A sadist handled our MATHEMATICAL METHODS II when I was in school. Never smiled in class, taught so passively but tests and exams were hell. We had a lot of things to read up prior to the exam and I didn't even sleep for 2 days before exams. When the question eventually came, come see question! The cheapest thing there was the Green's theorem where you will start with the proofs, the Laplace transform I was banking to have a whole question set on it failed to be so, it was just question (4d) that was set on it. I got an E in that course and about half of the students that took it failed even Engineering students. We staged a protest, saw the VC, the lecturer was called and he was told to upgrade the course with about 5 marks or so, he refused. He said the law states that a course should be upgraded if 50% + failed but just 47%failed his course and he wouldn't upgrade .




Another challenging course was REAL ANALSIS and God be with you if Dr AAA Agboola will take you that course. He is not a sadist(most people think he is though) but believes everyone should be a genius. He seems to like that aspect of maths where most lecturers dread. 90% of his published works are on Groups, rings, hormomophism theorems, real analysis and all other abstract mathematical areas. His questions are not usually easy too. We had a C,2Ds, about 34Es and the remaining ones from 70 of us scored "F". Students gave testimonies for getting an "E" in that course. No be small thing o! We were blessed in terms of lecturers ; we had 2 of the best 20 mathematicians in Africa (Oguntuanse and co).




I can never forget our computer programming courses too, those ones na die. Not until 300 level, we used to write programs on papers . From 300 level, all our programming courses were done straight on the system and right there in the examination hall, you will know if you have failed or passed cos you will run the programs and if none fails to run, na F be that.

Nigerians! Instead of spending the time preparing for the exam, they spent it praying! They forget that faith without work is dead and useless

Hahahhahaha ,bro .thats the kind of generation that is coming up,its painful that religion has blindfolded many ,instead of doing the needful people end up doing the wrong thing at the wrong time,who can you blame ,the conmaster or the gulible.

URP 32-something. I've forgotten the course code. It is called City Centre Design.

There's also another one called Urban Design it's like master plan.

Bro thumbs up ,quantum is hell ,about 3 or more faint cases were recorded in the last concluded quantum mechanics exams here in my school ,this is true and not a joke when there woke up it was discovered that was their last chance in the school ,after spending like one hour in the exam hall without writing something tangible ,they gave up .


Please sire ,how do you help me with some materials in quantum mechanics

Hmmm MTS 311 (Groups and Rings). The cheapest question you can get there is what is a group or what is a ring?and that will take about 9/10 lines to define cos you will state all those 9 yeye axioms and tell them that if it obeys the above, then it is a ring. Kai! And that won't fetch you more than 1/4 mark or even 1/8 in some cases. When we did ours, a very close friend of mine dozed off when he saw the questionscheesy; I guess he didn't sleep well prior to the exam and he crash read also, too many proofs to memorise and all.He failed it and lots of people too, I have a way of scrambling for an "E" in those courses cos I will continue writing and joining the bits I know or have an idea of rather than give up and go submit. I know by the time they add 1 mark here, 1/2 mark there, 2 marks there, it will enter 40 sha. grin

.....Too many theorems without names.....Hard to cram....You may even understand them(very easy) but to remember them nko....In Mathematics,Real Analysis takes the cake......It is the abstract aspect of Calculus...All the theorems and principles of Calculus are derived from Real Analysis....

....ODE and PDE are applicable in all fields of human endeavours...Even in Medicine....You have to make the connection yourself....Learning Ordinary DE is the first step in learning Modelling and there is no field where Modelling isnt useful...In ODE,you reduce life's problems to Mathematical equations e.gIn constructing the Third Mainland Bridge,what design will guarantee the best structure?....This may be reduced to 1000 ODEs and PDEs which can be easily solved by computers....CIVIL ENGINEERING?...NO,MATHEMATICS....

I always targeted A in all my courses and always felt like crying anytime I didn't make one.

I did 48 courses throughout my university days, had A in 34; B in 10; C in 2; and D in 2.

Had A in 71% of the courses I did.

Always a pleasure to help a broda out.. But the only materials I can help u with are the handouts and text books .truly that course could give brain tumor
