Idk, you tell me. (attachment has list of 2013 assessments)
You might finish the course in time, but you won't cover the topics as in depth as you could have. Your school is just wasting a whole term for MX2.

I did graphing>complex>induction>volumes>polys>conics>mechanics.

I was the only asian in my 4u class.

Don't adopt that attitude, there's always room for improvement. Work hard and you will get the results.

OK. What textbooks would you recommend for a beginning student in complex numbers? I was using Terry Lee's Advanced Maths, but that's more suited to people who actually know what they're doing :p.

Would it work if my school finishes all of the three unit course halfway through term 1 next year? My class only has binomial, a bit of three unit motion, integration by substitution and inverse trigonometry to go through before we finish MX1, and I think we'll have finished it by about halfway through term 1 next year- i assume that all the periods after that will be dedicated to pure MX2.

Thats a bit better, but I remember that I would devote all my study periods plus 1 or 2 hours a night just completing 4U homework, and then studying on top of that. If you're having extra periods for 4U, you might struggle to keep up with the content.

Anyone who is mentally incapable of doing 4U will have better career/economic prospects dropping out to become a plumber.

Go hard or go home.

Is this a textbook???.... or a person?! Cos we've got an Indian maths teacher with the same name, and he's kinda like a computer when it comes to maths, only a bit more powerful. :)

And YES, cos we did our mathematics exam today.... one down, ∞ to go....
