For enriched physics (grade 11) - Be prepared to listen to the lectures in class - Full understanding of the concepts are necessary, especially for the multiple choice and long answer components - There is no time to check over answers. - Significant figures are sources of a lot of missed marks - DRAW FREE BODY DIAGRAMS - There is no formula sheet provided, so create one or memorize the formulas, even the rearranged formulas - For lab reports, definitely proofread for writing errors and be thorough with procedure and analysis - Take notes of EVERYTHING and refer to outside sources (Khan Academy, Textbook, Schum's Outline) for external aid and deeper understanding

You don't have to memorize much, just understand the concepts. Always take notes, and review the slides after each class. The practice questions he assigns aren't typically enough, so look for extra practice problems on the internet (Schaum's Outline for physics is good). Make sure you know algebra. Don't mess up on the significant figures. Also, do your tests in pencil.

Take into consideration that I didn't do well in this course, so the reader may want to refer to other students for a broader perspective.
