my physics teacher doesn't really teach much, just goes through course quickly and talks about a few concepts occasionally, we just end up not doing much in class then so tbh we aren't up to much, but we're supposedly up to rockets now.

In biology, we were learning about the arteries and the latest thing we did was about body fluid alternatives (like blood etc)

For us, we've completed complex numbers and doing conics. Our exam in later this term will be on both complex numbers and conics. But I do think our teacher flew through some things in complex numbers without proper explanations ><

Yeah the kids that do 4U at our school are in the same case as you guys. They are being rushed by their teachers and are struggling to stay up to date with work. Kinda sucks to be them.

It took us one full term to do complex numbers last year, making it one of my stronger topics.
But in the end, we rushed through mechanics before the trials and harder ext 1 after the trials.
That may have cost me an e4, but meh, high 80's is good enough.

I thought my teacher was rushing through the work too fast, but we only finished the course with 2 weeks to spare. That's how the 4U course works. It's up to the student to keep up with the work, which is why so many find 4U so difficult.

The course should be fast paced, requiring me to spend many hours a week just to keep up, even though our class was always behind.

lol. I probably spent around 28% on Ext.2. Probably around 12% Ext.1. 22% Chemistry. 18% Physics. 15% English Advanced. 5% Economics.
Hmmm very accurate percentages right there haha.

For me, probably 35% on 4U, 15% on 3U, 25% on chem, 22% on physics and 3% on english.
Yeah, I hate english with a passion :)
