      It is made a lot more simple by being part of a team. We share ideas and help each other. That is what engineering is about; success as a team!

      I used them yes but its more about working with the fundamentals and being aware of them rather than focusing on specific points

      I use very simple maths all the time but that’s really easy.
      I use difficult maths every now and again, normally there is one point in a project where research or testing will require some calculations or a bit of materials physics. I never did physics A level though, I don;t think it is too hard and if I ever get stuck I go and ask for help from one of my colleagues. I never need to worry about asking for some help because we all bring different skills to the team and support each other.
