    I know that MX1 is harder than 2U, and also that there is a bigger workload. However, how much of a step up exactly is MX1 from 2U? Is it a LOT harder? Is the workload e.g. more than twice as much/about 20% more than 2U? How much time needs to be devoted to it? I got around 74% for my half...

    Quadratic inequalities

    When representing a quadratic inequality, say (x-2)(x-5) > 0 on the Cartesian plane, do you shade the areas above y=0 and outside the parabola, or do you simply emboss the part of actual parabola itself that's above y=0 with open circles at the x-intercepts? Or does either way not matter...
