So my ICE and alternatives final is tomorrow.
Midterm covered all the good stuff that we care about. ICE, Diesel cycle, Otto Cycle, and all that really fun stuff. Even got to tear into/rebuild an engine for a lab.
Final is tomorrow and I just found out it's at 3:30 pm and not 10 am. This is uncharted territory: hybrids, batteries, regenerative braking, dynamic modeling. Professor's given us absolutely no indication of what's on the exam, only scattered topics and equations that came two weeks too late. This class is a great big clusterfuck as nobody has any idea what kinds of questions will be on the final: we shifted from applications to theory.
An increasingly hilarious set of events paired down the final project to "just" two parts (finding 0-60 and top speed + a few other things the TA provided) it still took a solid day of programming as we got the equations...two days before the due date. Friend/group-mate typed up my semi-coherent ramblings into "normal" English.
And yet, I am oddly calm as I pair down 8 lectures of 26 slides each into one page - front and back - of notes.
