are we behind? (1 Viewer)

[Aquawhite]

It's a substantial lead on many of the other students... You've essentially done 1/3 of the Year 12 course up until mid course. A lot is calculus.

 

[Brontecat]

i'm almost finished real functions and then i've only got the quadratic function left
i'm skipping locus and tha parabola and'll do that later, but to balance it out i've already done year 12 probabilty

in my textbook there isn't rlly a calculus topic as such its more integrated into the other topics

What textbook are you using? It should have a introductory calculus section at least...

Locus is rather easy (but can get pretty annoying so don't leave it too late). The parabola section is all parametrics basically and it's pretty big so have fun! .

I don't think we are going all too fast at all.. compared to you guys..

 

[Brontecat]

i;'m using excel as my basis and then doing extra questions from maths in focus

are u accelerating too??

 

[dux&src]

MATHS in focus ??

 

[Miss Sunshine]

what's wrong with maths in focus?????

 

[duckcowhybrid]

Shitty questions. We use Fitzpatrick, but we get sheets from Cambridge and Coroneos.

 

[dux&src]

what's wrong with maths in focus?????

The questions ?
The format ?
The layout ?

I have my own textbooks to use..namely cambridge!

 

[Miss Sunshine]

i'm not minding it ^^

but i hear that everyone just adores cambridge..

care to give me a reason why??

what do you like about its questions, format and layout?

 

[duckcowhybrid]

Lots of hard exam style questions that push you.

Jai adore cambridge <3

the questions are more challenging, the questions are more diverse in that each question requires a new concept to reach your solution, the paper is glossy
YUMMY

format hmm well layout very organised and format is easy on the eyes.

WHAT about your opinions of this book?


where are you guys up to in maths?

 

[duckcowhybrid]

Finished Maximum and Minimum problems using Geometrical Applications of Differentiation. Now I'm just revising for half yearly (6 weeks away)

Ahh, wondered where this thread had got to... Anyway, just wanted to have a quick check in with others to compare progress because I'm pretty sure my school is once again lagging behind.

Maths (2U): Basic Arithmetic and Algebra/Surds, Coordinate Geometry

Maths Extension 1 (3U): Polynomials, Circle Geometry

Sooo yeaaah that's ALL the work we've done in term 1 :mad1: . Pretty sure that classifies as 'falling behind' but I'd like to hear the general consensus lol

 

[Lukybear]

Man you guys are way ahead.... Or We're just way behind...

 

[xXmuffin0manXx]

we're way ahead in 2u

we've done polynomials

but we dont do circle geometry till end of this term

You've done polynomials, as in you've done that as well as other topics in 3u, or just polynomials...?

 

[possessionless]

i didnt do polynomials till like august when i did extension!!
