Things like the actual circuit symbols for logic gates (I know what the various gates do from being a computer geek, but I need to learn the symbols), op-amps (what they do and how to use them - *whoosh* tbh), and the mathsy side, eg voltage over a potential divider, and how to work out where the switch and where a resistor goes in a potential divider to create a desired effect, etc.
It's mostly in the guide, I'm just annoyed that we've not been taught what seems like some pretty fundamental stuff. He mostly just told us where each bit of the circuit goes when we were doing the practical without much on why, though.
My knowledge of the stuff we've done is pretty good, I can tell you what all the pins on a 555 IC do, and I'm like the strawberry floating Buddha of those PIC chip flowchart thingies (again due to computer geekery more than what he's taught us).
