I am having troubles understanding the complexity of these type of questions, eg. steady-state temperatures, d'Alembert's solutions, potential equations etc. To me, they all look alike and I really get confused and when I am writing the solutions, they seem okay to me but when I get the solutions marked, I get a BAD mark...I just dont know how to study for it...any easy way?

You might consider one of the following books:
Differential Equations Demystified: http://www.amazon.com/Differential-Equations-Demystified-Steven-Krantz/dp/0071440259/sr=8-1/qid=1165475937/ref=pd_bbs_1/102-5515171-6303342?ie=UTF8&s=books
Schaum's Outline of Differential Equations: http://www.amazon.com/Schaums-Outline-Differential-Equations-Richard/dp/0070080194/sr=8-2/qid=1165475937/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2/102-5515171-6303342?ie=UTF8&s=books
I can't vouch for the first, but I've always found Schaums Outlines to be very helpful and easy to follow.

I dropped that class and studied (more or less) pure math instead. :]
