Can I take an extra math unit next semester?
Q. I am currently enrolled in the university of Sydney. I failed math1001 in my first sem, and I need 12 cp from the maths and stats units of study. Is it possible to take an extra math unit to make up for it in the next semester, or do I have to definitely resit it? If so, is it possible to do it in the first semester of 2nd yr?

A. could answer this if I could see fig 52... possibly: The PNP is probably connected in series with a NPN and the output taken from the common emitters of the two. It allows the load to be driven in both polarities.
