    Which subject is more "prestigious" - English Extension 2 or Mathematics Extension 2?

    Re: Which subject is more "prestigious" - English Extension 2 or Mathematics Extensio I don't think any course lists MX2 as assumed knowledge. I could be wrong, however.

    Which subject is more "prestigious" - English Extension 2 or Mathematics Extension 2?

    Re: Which subject is more "prestigious" - English Extension 2 or Mathematics Extensio To be fair, 4U maths is quite difficult and often, to do well, you have to work tirelessly hard. I would say that 4U maths is more prestigious, though. But 4U english is a lot of work too.

    Thoughts on Paper 1 of the CSSA Trial Exam

    LOL, I just googled "quaking cheat". Nah, but seriously, section one is just one of those things where if you make sense, load it up with techniques or whatever, then yay all is swell. (At least, I hope.)

    Thoughts on Paper 1 of the CSSA Trial Exam

    "Obsolete" doesn't mean different language. Usually, "obsolete" language means language that's no longer in use, like "archaic" "quaking cheat", etc.

    Reflection is separate from the major work. I'm pretty sure, but double check anyway.
