1.  F = ma is the key equation in Physics 1.  It means everything.

2.  When the weather gets colder, its much harder to convince yourself to go to class.

3.  Befriend your Lab TA’s as they are much smarter than you and will offer a wealth of knowledge if asked.

4.  If #3 is not doable due to your TA being a troll, make sure to have at least one (1) friend knowledgeable in the subject you find most difficult.  Bonus points if this friend will tutour you at obscene hours of the morning, before an exam.

5.  Organic chemistry is not your friend.

6.  In qualitative courses, there is almost no such thing as a wrong answer — argue, prove your point(s), gold star for you!

7.  Never lose your U-Pass because it will set you back $40 plus the cost of the amount of weekly passes you must buy.  $40 + $23(x) = beer money.

8.  If your professor says he will give you extra credit points for donating blood, always ask how many he is offering for the donation of plasma, bone marrow, and kidneys.

9.  When in doubt, always go with “C”.

10.  You can wear the same outfit two days in a row because your classes alternate, MWF, and TTh, no one will notice — or care.

And now — onto finals!
