    MIF is good, just don't rely on it completely and if you find it too easy, use Cambridge

    Drop or Stay?

    A lot of people on this forum say that the questions are too easy. They don't challenge students and won't prepare them well enough for exams.

    Solving trigonometric functions Multiple choice HSC

    Angle should always touch the x-axis: First quadrant is normal Second quadrant is 180 - x Third quadrant is 180 + x Fourth quadrant is 360 - x Look at a unit circle and this will make sense. x is an acute angle. sin30 = sin30 and sin(180-30) = sin150

    Solving trigonometric functions Multiple choice HSC

    Find the general angle which is 30 degrees. Then use the ASTC rule to see where the tan function is negative (i.e. 2nd and 4th). From there find the obtuse angles by subtracting 30 degrees from the x axis, 180 - 30 and 360 - 30, to get the values 150 degrees and 330 degrees. Convert these to rad...

    The congruency effect: Study shows walking can boost your math abilities

    http://www.psypost.org/2015/05/the-congruency-effect-study-shows-walking-can-boost-your-math-abilities-34589 "get up and take a walk" is very common advice when stuck on a programming problem. It's interesting to see tie-ins like this.

    Year 11 3U trigonometry question, please help?

    Diagram cot(a) = \frac{x+hcot(b)}{h} hcot(a) = x + hcot(b) x = hcot(a) - hcot(b) x = h(cot(a) - cot(b))

    Study buddy?

    This whole forum is a place where everyone can help each other/share notes. If you want to study with someone on a regular basis, you should see if someone at your school is interested in studying with you. A lot of people don't make notes in year 11 anyway and just download ones from here. If...

    Have I messed up my HSC already with my subject selection?

    No, the only way to mess up is to do subjects you do not enjoy. Doing a subject just for scaling will probably result in you losing interest and doing worse in the HSC. Tutoring does not automatically mean you will get a band 6 in your subjects, you need to do a lot of independent study too.

    Is it worth the drop from 2u to General? [PRELIM]

    MIF has questions that are easier than year 10 textbooks. Sadly a lot of schools use it because the students 'aren't good enough' to use harder textbooks and as a result, students get bad exam results. This continues pretty much until the student gives up and drops to general, or starts using a...
