In the IELTS test, time is your enemy. Candidates who have taken the test and did not perform as well as they had hoped often complain that they were unable to give all the answers in the Listening Test because the tape was too fast, and that they ran out of time in the Reading Test.

Should I be writing a detailed reason for each question I got wrong in a notebook, so that I can go over it later?
Filed Under News | Leave a Comment
jmugele: I would not revisit the ones I got right. Instead, as I’m taking a test, I’ll mark the ones I’m guessing on or unsure of (I wouldn’t worry about keeping track of time on a test until late in the studying process).

Colleges That Change Lives : Evergreen State CollegeThursday August 17th 2006, 5:36 pm Filed under: College, Tips
In his book, Colleges That Change Lives, author Loren Pope profiles 40 schools. In that list, Evergreen State College is one of two public schools talked about. Pope deems only 40 schools in the country worthy of being classified as life-changing, and only two (only two!) are public. That’s just a whole rant I can’t go into right Read more

Electricity
F = (k)(q1)(q2) / ( r^2) **Coulomb’s Law — remember that opposite charges attract each other and like charges repel each other**
Electric Field’s due to a point charge
The electric field that exists at a point in space is the electrostatic force felt by a test charge at the point divided by the charge itself
E = (force) / (test charge) **if we plug the Coulumbs equations Read more
