Solving difficult integrals:
1. try u substitution
2. try integration by parts
3. maybe partial fractions will help?
4. nope. trig subs?
5. remember that that integral is one that you can't do by hand and need to look up from the back of your old calculus textbook
6. remember that you got rid of that textbook years ago
7. remember that wolfram alpha exists
8. put it into wolfram alpha
9. wonder why you didn't do this in the first place
10. why did you need to solve that anyways?

There's also step 3a and 4a plus optional 2a: remember you have no idea how to work with any of those techniques because you haven't had to use them since you took cal II, a class you barely paid attention to
