MATH1901:

Complex numbers, limits, taylor polys, partial derivs

MATH1902:

Vectors, dot/cross products, matricies, fundy thm of algebra, eigen values/vectors

I'll just leave MATH1902 for later, so for MATH1901, what do you think I should practice? (I've become REALLY rusty and I'll probably re-learn concepts in depth/develop some conceptual understanding and etc).

 

[SpiralFlex]

That is a very good book

 

[SpiralFlex]

However you are probably more suited to something like Calculus 9th edition by Rn Lrsons

Colorful and the questions have a designated problem solving section so it's not repetitive

 

[Aysce]

Got them both

Though do I have to worry about Maxima and minima? I'll probs just do exercises from both of those books.

So that's it?

 

[SpiralFlex]

Ayace I will sell you spivak for a low price if you PM me

 

[asianese]

Don't bother with exercises unless you have time...just read and absorb.

 

[SpiralFlex]

No no you have to attempt exercises just reading the theory is useless you need to learn develop skills to apply it.

That's like having an orange without making juice, yuck

 

[asianese]

lol.

Btw, thepiratebay costs nothing . *HINT*

 

[SpiralFlex]

We are so getting infracted

Too late my friend

 

[Aysce]

But yeah so just work through those exercises and re-learn complex numbers.

Will do.

Thanks boiz

There is a website where you can buy second hand textbooks it's called textbook exchange

 

[asianese]

Haha buy.

 

[SpiralFlex]

Some people I know value their textbooks as in they protect it like if it were their babies and don't like them to be damaged. There is one person who is a mod that I think is protective of his maths texts

 

[asianese]

Maybe when I win the lotto will I splurge on academic texts!

 

[Drifting95]

How many hours a day are you guys studying?

 

[Aysce]

I don't rest until the sun sets bby

 

[Sy123]

How many hours a day are you guys studying?

16 hours per day - I know, its pretty weak, I probably will only manage a 99.90 ATAR

sleep is optional

band 6 is compulsory

100 ATAR is necessary

starting to get my results back and this is what ive got so far
Standard English: 60/100 (KILL ME) ~20/49
Geography 20/20 - 1/8
Business Studies 47/60 - 6/30
Modern History ??/?? - 6/10(Most likely 6th out of 10, however its a very smart class)
General Mathematics 80/100 - =1/28
IPT 86/100 - =2/4

I hope this is enough for an ATAR of 80+
