shouldnt further electronics be done after electronics and photonics? or is it a more basic course?

I found it much simpler than Electronics and photonics - I think the only formula required was V = IR? And you just needed and understand of the different "stages" in a rectifier circuit. I've taken a look at the exam questions relating to the detailed study as well - all multiple choice; therefore you could say it's more basic.

Has anybody completed all the checkpoints to Structures and Materials?

Would they gear the exam towards what detail study you choose?

Sorry if I don't quite understand what you mean, but there are two core area of studies (Motion & Electronics + Photonics) which everyone has to complete and then you are able to choose one of three detailed studies. I believe you do the one that your school chooses, as quite obviously you are being taught the theory and stuff on that topic. All the detailed study questions are multiple choice, and the difficulty for each would be similar.

Yeah, i've done majority of the checkpoints, only a handfull of the torque questions i found confusing, but i figured em out eventually. All in all, structures and materials is minor theory, stress, strain, youngs modulus, torque clockwise=torque anti clockwise and interpretation of the graphs.

Also, whose got a zip file of physics exams, according to our current study design?

We finished up all of motion/forces and S&M before the holidays, had our SAC on S&M after the hols and now we are starting electricity.

I am rooted for electricity, I didn't do unit 1 physics.
