do this for me...

go to your calculator and type in squre root of -1

when you get the answer, think long and hard about wtf does it mean..

when you come to 4units... you will be able to solve that root of -1

it will allow you to open doors that the 2unit or 3unit course closed to you for years.

Maths through correspondence will allow you to have 1 on 1 tuition (if your lucky) which may suit your learning styles. BUT more importantly, your external exam mark will become your HSC mark as you only sit one exam. This means you only need to ace the HSC without worries about the internal assessment marks.
I wish I had the chance to do 4unit through correspondence as I found my school's teaching are pretty useless compared to private tuition or self study.

Ou school had three people doing it, and half the time one of the guys was away, so our class was almost a one-on-one tuition anyway lol.

But yeh, if you wanna do four unit, correspondance isn't that much of an issue. Just try not to get annoyed with it. A couple of my freinds have done correspondance subjects and they get to halfway through the year and then decide they don't like it anymore because it's not in a class or anything. Then they just don't try anymore and they end up doing so much shitter than they could of.

Anyway, moral of the story is, correspondance is cool if you do the work. If you bludge it off you are really going to go shit.
