Physics - Sem 1 | MU

How to pass in Physics-I ?

Before you directly start exploring study resources of mechanics and guidelines it is really very important to note down this important statements. 

• Switch to popular references, means if you where using class notes or other books other than the list of books provided by Mumbai university then you have to switch or add this references to your existing source of learning.
• Follow the guidelines perfectly and the list of questions / concept / summary provided by team brainheaters.
• For Mechanics most important part to focus for is Statics which should be your first priority.
• ​You are all set now ! Let's Go

Follow the order of preparation.

1. Observe the Blueprints and choose what you gonna select for your studies. (Blueprints may not repeated exactly same but number of question from each modules remains same)
2. Read and understand the Bh.plan for your preparation (Modules with high scores and priority should be your 1st priority)
3. Start exploring the preparation kit and understand the contents of topics/modules you will start with !
4. Open up points to be noted and start practicing or reading and understanding (From reference books) sums of the selected topics make sure you keep refer points to be noted section while you are practicing sums.  

Blueprints 

Expected Blueprints - Specially for papers 

Blueprints may not reflected same to same - There can be swap of questions or sub questions nothing else. Observe and select your set of questions to prepare.
