Seeminly my school has decided to do the whole 2unit course this for yr 11. Suppose that our class gets enough hours (120) and complete all major assessments on time, would it be possible if we complete the HSC external 2 unit math this yr? as it is our first yr?

Ye, you can do that.

Accelearating for 2 unit maths isn't difficult at all really...

Yes, that's what i did at my school and we had plenty of time.

We started a bit earlier but that just meant we finished that much earlier for trials :)

simple answer, u prob coul;d do the test but u won't, many 3u classes do the entire 2u course in the first year, then do the test 1 year later, its something about being eligable for extension

im doing that too we've just finished year 11

i haven't been finding it too difficult especially considering that im not the type of person thats skilled enough to do mx - you should fiond it a good opportunity on the bright side itll be done and u wont have to do it next year so you can focus on mx 1

Our school offer acceleration for 2U and 3U (ie. all or nothing)... I think it's fine, but if you are considering doing 4U, I think it may help to do the 3U and 4U course at the same time because I find that 4U helps considerably with 3U.

For example, I used to get around about Rank 10-15 in prelim for Year 11 3U, but when I started doing 4U my ranks increased to Top 2...

It's different for everyone but yeah it's quite cool... lol

Let me just clarify once more, before i become extremely hopeful. I mean acceleration as in, 2unit course wasnt done in yr 10, but just whole yr 11 do prelim+hsc 2unit. If so, does any know any schools who does it like that, just as weight when i argue with my teacher.

our school has never offered acceleration. not that i would be doing it anyway, because im shit at maths. but yeah, considering some of the people at our school, they probably should offer it.
