Astrophysics- easiest to get the marks in. I heard that Quanta to Quarks is the hardest option.

Q2Q is quite easy.

Half of the stuff in Q2Q was in I2I in the old syllabus :) It ties in well, plus its interesting :D

Astrophysics!

We did this module first, at the end of last year.
I've been told this is whack, is this true?

Your teacher probably thought it links well with Cosmic Engine.

lol, you do Physics and Chemistry but no maths.

From Quantum to Quarks... eventually. Any one else not started yet? It seems quite troubling that we're only three quarters through the coursework.

I did maths up until last term.
Couldn't stand it. :bomb:

That's worrying, we've finished everything since last term. LOL.
Hopefully your trials aren't coming up anytime soon.

how do you find projectiles?
Hate it.
I tuned out actually, don't remember much.

So my knowledge of projectiles = none. :mad1:

I don't like anything formula based, which is.. oh.. all of Physics?
Damn. :haha:



But everyone else in the class (they all do 4U maths) help me out sometimes. :/
And I'm doing kickass in the longer response section, but thats about it.

(i.e, for a question relating to induction cooktops, where you had to take on the persona of a salesman about the safety pluses over conventional cooktops, I went overboard with that question and ended up writing like, "So, will that be cash, cheque or credit?" The teacher was not amused. =.=)
