ahh maybe that's why...
what don't you understand about derivatives?
maybe spend some time trying to revise the stuff on derivatives during these holidays?......

and besides, how are you going in school anyway?

well i dont get the applications of it, like plotting stationary points etc and derriving a graph from an equation. Like i know how to do the basics like chain rule, quotient rule etc etc just the applications. I wanna get the applicatons before tutor starts because i think next topic is integration =\

and in school im doing great assessment task for 2unit maths was 98% i killed it :) but idk about extension teachers slacking off =="

hmm i've learned a bit of calculus before but i forgot how to do it :L

nice effort for 2U maths... i only got 88% in my recent 2U exam.. :/
hope you do well in 3U if you're thinking of doing 4U, which your tutor is giving you in-depth study of the stuff....

oh thats good as long as you got a "headstart" on calculus :)

oh yeah thanks it was a breeze my whole class failed though LOL
and i dont think i'll be doing 4U since im struggling with 3 because my tutor teacher said if you cant do 3U then its impossible for you to do 4U because its an extension of 3U
and i go Pal Education in Cabramatta, ever heard? considering of going?
