Eight Study Periods (of 55 minutes each) (1 Viewer)

[Shadowdude]

Is this enough 'study' time for Ext. 2?

I presume it is - it is eight study periods over a two week cycle, in total 455 minutes. So my question is how much of this time should I (roughly) dedicate to Ext. 2 Maths? Four of eight? Six of eight?

Also, since I figure this is extremely difficult mathematics - I've taken it upon myself to get some 'self-help' books. So far, I've gotten Excel's 50 HSC Exam Tips by Jeff Geha. Is there any other books you guys recommend I should get?

It depends on how much you get done

Get cambridge.

Get Cambridge and Terry Lee. They supplement each other well. Saying that though, coroneas could replace Terry lee

So Cambridge 4 unit and Terry Lee...

Cambridge 4 Unit Mathematics Year 12
Advanced Mathematics: A Complete HSC 4-Unit Course

That'd set me back... $120-ish, maybe?

And Revised 4 Unit (Extension 2) Maths Yrs 11-12 would set me back another $30... interesting.

I bought the Cambridge for $45

Terry lee was $50 or something

If you use them wisely then the HSC mark will more than make up for the $120 in long term

hehe so I'll use Cambridge and Coroneos then. I won't have to spend any money then because my school supplies both. Lucky

 

[Shadowdude]

Damn you and your rich school!

I think I'll go shopping after I find out what textbooks my teacher supplied us with... our school may be rich yet.

Patel's, Cambridge and Past papers, FTW!!!

(y)

and btw, coroneos, is only good for integration, its gonna be a waste if you buy that book.

 

[Shadowdude]

So that explains the low price ($30).

Interesting, interesting. I've been reading the memoirs of 4u students and I can see I'm probably going to have a very fun year in Ext. 2...

 

[ninetypercent]

yes indeed. I'm looking forward to Ext 2, but it's gonna be really really really hard. I hear that the drop out rate is pretty high.

BS it will be hard...Nothing is hard, it just requires more effort.
