Re: Memorization for Physics/Engineering
I agree, memorization isn't neccessary. Visit an Engineer and look at his desk, most will have a least 6 or 7 reference books on thier desk.

What you use, you'll remember... If you don't use it regularly, what's the point of having it memorized? And at least in my College experience, Eng good profs recognize this and let you bring references to exams. It's knowing how to apply an equation, not where it's sin^2 or sin^3
