Losing my mind over ECE 2010

I have never been so stressed for a class my entire life, but every single time I have an ECE test my entire body starts physically trembling with how stressed I am.

I'm doing well on the labs but we've had three exams so far this term. The first one, I admit, I was being lazy and I barely studied for, so I got a 75. Which was fine, but I wanted better scores, so I aimed for a 90 the next exam. I got a 79. Which pissed me off, because I spent 8 hours the day before studying for this and then I reviewed for 1 hour the day of.

And then I heard from people that it's better to practice the material every day. So I did that this week. I've just come from my third exam and let's just say I'm very confident that I've absolutely failed this exam. I'll be lucky if I even get a 50.

I feel like I'm going insane. I've been losing sleep and eating less just to practice ECE every day, but there have been no results. I'm losing my mind and I don't know what to do. If anyone has any tips that might help, I'd love to hear them.

Taking ECE 2039 before ECE 2010?

Considering taking ECE 2039 over the summer. It would be my first ECE class at WPI. I saw on the course catalog that there is no recommended ECE background, only basic computer programming knowledge.

  1. Would you advise I take 2010 first, or does it really not matter that much?

  2. In terms of programming, what languages/what extent of coding should I expect?
