Study tips for ECE students 2 points, 6 comments
“What are the best study tips you can offer a computer engineering student (going into 3A with a lot of labs). …”
u/AAstar2: “I was in ECE Stream 4 in CE. ECE 316 is hardest and ECE 380 is easiest. The rest are in moderate difficulty. Study post-midterm material first, then brush up on pre-midterm material. …”
u/AAstar2: “I was in the old curriculum. I think we took these in 3A. ECE 300A Electrical and Computer Engineering Practice ECE 316 Probability Theory and Random Processes ECE 380 Analog Control Systems ECE 327 Digital Hardware Systems (computer) ECE 351 Compilers (computer)”
