Engineering school
A French engineering school trains students in a three-year engineering cycle, often after a prépa. Lumi keeps the scientific basics in your head between projects.

In short
The engineering cycle lasts three years. You enter after a classe préparatoire through an exam, after a preparatory cycle inside the school, or on application from a BUT, a BTS or a licence. The course mixes science, engineering, management and languages, with projects and placements. The engineer diploma is an accredited title at master level. Specialities are many, mechanics, electronics, computing, energy and others.
What goes on your cards
In an engineering school, put on cards formulas, laws, theorems and their conditions of use, definitions in electronics, mechanics, thermodynamics and statistics, and management notions. Lumi has you recall them so calculations flow without going back to the lesson.
A study rhythm
Tests and projects overlap, so keep a short daily session rather than a big block before exams. Gaps should grow over time (Cepeda et al., 2006). Before exams, go over the oldest chapters first. Plan with How to make a study schedule before an exam.
