MP2I (maths, physics, engineering, computer science)

MP2I, the first year of the prépa track combining maths, physics, engineering and a strong dose of computer science, stands apart for its computing weight. Lumi helps you remember the course and the syntax so you can code without looking things up.

In short

MP2I stands for mathématiques, physique, ingénierie et informatique. It is a science prépa first year that gives computer science a large share beside maths and physics. It continues in a second year, MPI. There, the entrance exams mostly open engineering schools, with specific computer science papers. It is the track for those heading toward computing.

What goes on your cards

In MP2I, make cards for maths and logic definitions, data structures with their complexity, classic algorithms, OCaml and Python syntax, and the physics laws on the syllabus. Lumi has you recall.

A study rhythm

Pair every coding session with a short Lumi session to fix syntax and complexities right after. Keep a daily pass, plus a review per chapter (Rawson and Dunlosky, 2011). Before mock exams, go over the classic algorithms cold. See How to make a study schedule before an exam.
