Nah, didn't do any test I just enrolled for Matrix recently and they asked me what subjects I do at school. They put me into MX1 Accelerator when I said 2U Maths Accelerator at school. We've done Intro to Calculus and Series and Sequence for school but I heard at Matrix there on the mere edge of finishing polynomials. Thats why I'm stressing, don't know if I can cope. muffin you do physics don't you?
no

and i hear that the accelerated class is actually a new class..
you dont join in with the current accelerated people..
lol..speaking of that, the scholarship exam was taken by practically most of the accelerated people

we finished the year with polynomials and this is a1

so for polynomials..we got questions like

i)the roots of x^2 +11x + 1 = 0 are alpha and beta. find alpha^ + 2 beta^2

ii) P(x) = x^2 + kx + 1. find the value(s) pf k for which P(x) > 0 for all x

not that difficult so if you can manage those..stay with accelerated

but the last topic test everyone at matrix did..the average was like 6/30 ?
i got 9 and i still managed to rank like 11th out of 77?
i lol'd at that for a very long time

Yeah, I've been studying Polynomials myself cos she told me thats what the class is doing. I just briefly into polynomials. like
Solve the equation:
(x-1)^3-4(x-1)^2+5(x-1)-2=0
(2x+1)^3-2(2x+1)^2-5(2x+1)+6=0
I still need to finish roots and coefficients of polynomial equations and special results.
I know I'll experience problems most of the time cos we've done Calculus and Series and Sequence since its a 2unit acc. course at school.
I also heard that Trig is next.
lol..i felt sooooo shit when i joined my first matrix class
but anyway..your going to really have to catch up on polynomials
