[shikaree_bex]

Okay, so here's my story, i used to do 2 unit mathematics, and i was just passing, i wasn't putting much effort in but anyway
so i dropped to general , and i am soooo lazy and i just get all frustrated when i get a question wrong

so anyway, is anyone else practicing maths? if so, what questions are u using
i am using the excel book...

 

[tammer]

yeah the excel guide is pretty good, if you get thru that whole book, you'll be sure to get an awesome mark. i've done bits and pieces of it, but make sure you have a go at some past papers also.

btw, i used to do 2 unit also, just passing, but its too much work. general's da bomb!!!

same here
i came top3 in a couple of tests as well but then i went all downhill lol
and the teacher said a high general mark is better than a low 2unit mark so i quit 2U

I used to be in 2 Unit and now whenever l get a question wrong l get so angry because l feel like l should have gotten it right. I am the highest in my class (the entire grade) so l don't think that there is anything to stress about!

nope, the one you are thinking of is the Revise HSC General Maths in a Month

 

[bubz :D]

haha i dropped from 2u as well i think that's the case with heaps of people... and yeah, i did pretty well in my first assessment, but then i missed out on too many lessons [tafe on tuesday arvo], so after my prelims i was like, stuff it, it's better to at least PASS in general than fail miserably in 2u... XD

this girl dropped from 3u... to 2u... to general... and teh only reason she dropped from 3u was because she changed schools and 3u was full at my school... so she did 2u, but she HATED our teacher, so we both dropped down to general [for different reasons ]

she's topping general so badly. rawrrr i hate her ;D

hmmm my friends say that revise gen maths in a month isn't good?

 

[Misturi]

l just bought another textbook from an education book supplier. Now if l have a problem with a certain area and its the weekend l either email my teacher or look it up in the other book to get a better definition.

 

[yenta]

I'm doing nooo study watsoever for maths, I dropped from 2u as well and now general is just a piece of piss...i only ever studied for like 2 days for the trial and me yearly result is 87%. Its stupid, 2u is too hard but gen too easy

I might buy the Excel book, it sounds pretty good, I'm just doing past papers atm

 

[Misturi]

Lol, l understand general so well that my next goal is not only to get the top of the grade (which l've already done) but get 100%..doubt it!!

l'm going to study my ass off though this weekend and beat my best friend!!!

lol l know what you mean, when l first started 2U my teacher advised me to get a tutor to help me, l did but nothing happened! I dropped down to general, and my tutor says that l'm so good at it that he's giving me year 12 trail papers to complete in class (l'm in year 11)

Gen.Maths is the only subject I've been able to begin proper study for, which has been occuring through being regularly given past papers to work on. It's going alright, but I need to stop making the odd foolish mistake, so I can try and get over 90%..
