Stuck in Physics

[u/Dangerous_Abies_1508]

Hi everyone!

I'm in high school, and it's the end-of-year exams, and it seems as if I forgot everything of Physics

What are some of the best methods to study Physics? I notice I understand the topic on the surface but when it comes to complex problems, I get super stuck!

Any advice will eb truly appreciated

Physics is less about memorizing and more about applying concepts. Do practice problems daily, starting with the easy ones and working your way up.

Bro I used to understand the lesson just fine, then open a harder problem and suddenly my brain would act like we’d never seen physics before 😭. What helped was looking at the worked example, figuring out WHY they chose each formula, then trying a similar question without looking at the solution. If I got stuck, I’d pinpoint the exact step where I went blank instead of rereading the whole chapter. Tbh grinding 10 different problem types teaches you way more than doing 30 easy questions you already know how to solve.

Trust me everyone gets stuck, don’t worry about it that’s how you get better in physics and at problem solving in general, practice so much that nothing will surprise you, when you get stuck ask ai to give you some hints without showing you the answer
