You essentially just have to get your approach on how to study them right. Each week your elements notes will be the lecture slides with words missing. When you listen to the lecture, you fill in the words missing. Essentially by understanding these lecture slides and applying them to practice questions which will be given throughout the semester, you should be fine for the exam. That approach got me a solid mark overall for ACST101.Hi! From your experience and perspective, is elements hard to grasp and memorise? Some say its what has let them down with their grades, whilst a large portion of others say they are 'easy marks'.
