If you're having trouble with circuit analysis, I would look for
weaknesses in either math or physics background.  I found that taking
two semesters of calc (and actively taking the third semester of calc 
along w/circuit analysis) was an extremely successful strategy.  Anyway
you cut it if your trig calc isn't up to snuff you're dead meat.  If
the problem is that you make mistakes with the large system of matrices
the only solution is to practice more until the mistakes are minimized.
Finally, doing a dimensional analysis at the end (ie the answer is in
the right units), checking that the answer makes sense, etc at the
point you finish the test is a good thing to do - try to finish your
exam 15 minutes early for this phase.

If the problem is a bad instructor, just take a different section or
wait until the current instructor has his semester off.
