Hi,
I'm currnetly working in electrical installation/maintenance and am due to start a HNC in electrical/electronic engineering in September. Having not come from an academic background nor having completed the ONC I'm a little concerned that my maths maybe found wanting. I spoke to the admissions tutor who seemed to think that as long as I understood the fundamentals of quadratic equations and their use with complex numbers I should be ok. I'd be most interested to hear from anyone who has completed the course on how to best prepare for the start of term. I've invested in two very good general HNC engineering science/maths books which on first sight appear a little daunting although I suppose if I understood these books now there would be little point in doing the course. Any comments would be appreciated
Regards
Blaise.
