WELL, it happened. Dropped to Advance to Standard. Before you guys start raining on me about comments and scaling and such. I knew what I did by dropping! Just wondering how many N awards does it take for a student to repeat year 11? I had an English exam, but I called my parent to pick me up and ended up not completing the task lmao

God you sound like a star student LOL

No problem with dropping to Standard English, I just believe doing Standard English is kind of...tragic. Not even in terms of scaling, but just the things they do in there.

Nothing wrong with standard the texts are kinda shittier than adv's already shitty texts and you have to do well in order not to get scaled down. No pressure

2016'ers! Can I ask exactly where you are up to in 2U Maths, as in the topics?

List them from previous to current, I want to compare if we are 2 topics behind as said by my maths teacher

I'm doing 3U which includes 2U. We've done, in this order:

Basic Arithmetic and Algebra
Trigonometry
Functions
Linear Functions
Plane Geometry
Quadratic Polynomial and Parabolas
Calculus (only half-way through)

In my school the 2U class is separate from the 3U class. I believe the 2U class has only done:

Basic Arithmetic and Algebra
Trigonometry
Functions
Plane Geometry
Linear Functions (only half-way through)

Dun goofed maths

How many topics do you have left? You should be about finished by wk3

A few left

In my school the 2U class is separate from the 3U class. I believe the 2U class has only done:

Basic Arithmetic and Algebra
Trigonometry
Functions
Plane Geometry
Linear Functions (only half-way through)
+ Quadratic Polynomial and Parabolas

Same, the bolded part + quad polynomial and parabola. Currently we are halfway through Plane Geometry. We begin Calculus Term 1 (week 3) in Year 12.

The reason why out topics are all over the place is because my teacher tries to match the 2U topics with 3U topics so it gets understood properly.

Dun goofed maths

Wat

 

[Sien]

I'm so behind in 3u maths... the teacher is too focused on 2u

We finished the 2u maths course on Monday. I think it went:
Basic Arithmetic/Algebra/Surds
Equations
Trigonometry
Geometry
Functions and graphs
The Quadratic Function and wateva the rest is called
Coordinate Geometry
Calculus

In 3u, we just have to finish parametrics.
Oh btw, im back after my sulking sessh

 

[Speed6]

What sulking sesh?

 

[DatAtarLyfe]

That sucks buddy. I remember in year 10 when my favourite maths teacher got transferred. I feel your pain.

Thanks bro, super devastated. A few friends and i are gonna chip in to get him a present.

 

[DatAtarLyfe]

What sulking sesh?

It's when you ponder upon existential thoughts while sitting in the corner of your room, completely dark, wrapped in blankets and rock back and forth slightly
Nah just a bit depressed and needed some time to just clear my mind

ahh well we did it a bit differently for 3U

we did :
algebra (including inequalities and absolute value)
trigonometry and further trig? and 3D trig
functions
coordinate geometry
circle geometry
similarity
calculus (just started this term)

 

[Speed6]

You just have to let it out and not worry about studies for some time

 

[WrittenLoveLetters]

No idea, but all we have left are 3U topics which is circle geometry, polynomials and permutations

good to hear that you're feeling better sulking seshes are important when you need one

gg for perms and combs

 

[Sien]

No idea, but all we have left are 3U topics which is circle geometry, polynomials and permutations

gg worst topics

 

[DatAtarLyfe]

gg worst topics

Polynomials is bae...

 

[Sien]

Polynomials is bae...

Whatever you say bro
Btw have you done induction yet?

I wish the best for all of you in 2016
