Starting Ext 2 Maths Now... (2 Viewers)

[~ ReNcH ~]

When did everybody start/when will you start doing the Ext 2 Maths course? I started last Thursday on Complex Numbers...does everybody start on Complex Numbers?

 

[McLake]

Almost everyone seems to start with Complex Nos.

 

[Archman]

i started with harder 3u.. wat the.

 

[Estel]

I actually think that harder 3U shouldn't be done last.
heh I'm alone it seems on that one.

 

[kimmeh]

Me = complex first. I know some schools start off with curve sketching

 

[Slidey]

complex numbers. almost finished.

 

[Vampire]

yeah we're doing complex numbers too - piss easy so far...

 

[~ ReNcH ~]

complex numbers. almost finished.

When did you start?
We only just learnt the mod-arg form of the complex number today...seems we have a while to go yet to finishing.

 

[currysauce]

damn LOL

u guys are flying through to have finished complex numbers

we just started last week.... i.e i just got up to argand plane LOL

oh well

maybe the fact we had exams first week back etc... adn started week 3?

 

[Slidey]

We started first week and have had 2 lessons a week since then.

 

[grimreaper]

We started first week and have had 2 lessons a week since then.

well then how on earth could you almost have finished? It took my class a whole term =\

 

[velox]

Dont ask. Slide rule has 'finished' the whole 4u course.

 

[Slidey]

We have almost finished because my teacher is blitzing through. He is deadset determined to finish as fast as possible whilst still allowing us to learn the material. Why? Because since this is a rural school, and he used to teach at a school in sydney which had many 4u classes, he is "certain" that the schools in Sydney are currently AHEAD of us, and wants to try and catch up.

Furthermore, given we are actually slightly behind in both 2u and 3u, I guess he doesn't want that to happen in 4u.

I have told him that almost all the 4u students I know, whether in Sydney or not, are actually at least a bit behind us, mostly far behind. He said "Nah, that's not true."

*shrugs*

Oh, and wrx, don't lie. I've never said I've finished the whole course. I've said that I've looked over the whole course, that I've attempted questions from many parts of the course, that I've even taught myself bits and pieces of the course, but never that I've finished the course. And I've NEVER said that I am good at the course. That is something I will reserve for saying once I do really well consistently in tests. Again, I've only said I want to be good at the course, and that I should in theory be good at the course, which has so far been backed up by the work I've done.

So please, lose that bitter tone.

 

[dangerousdave]

I started 2 weeks ago and we're half way through complex numbers

 

[Jago]

wtf sr, aren't you doing your hsc this year?

 

[Slidey]

Well, yes, I'm doing the first term of my HSC this year.
