    @TheDizzeeKid have you seen Sheffield Uni Mech Eng it looks sick! Do you think I could work for a company like BAE with a degree in mech because it is pretty broad and they cant expect everyone to have such a specific degree, can they?

    Obsessed with status.... Tut tut.... It will come back and kick him in the butt later in life!

    (Original post by Cubic)
    He did about 7 consecutive posts earlier. xD
    Yeah but I did that before anyone was TheDizzeeKid even asked what was the post count!

    So... that would have had to have been some coincidence if those were my intentions.

    Tut tut tut.......... Envious of my proof to the Riemann Hypothesis. Be gratuitous not zealous.

    What is the obsession with post rankings? :L


    you're that desperate to be the number one poster, that you've resorted into not multi-quoting in order to maximise your post count! How shameful....
    And btw there is no obsession. TBF who cares how many times you have posted; it is hardly an achievement. Just a bit of banter mate. That was wit; I weren't being serious hehe.

    And also, Ramanujan and Hardy are supposed to be working together not compete against each other!

    I'm just trying to get at you We must meet up and write some papers to make up for this

    Also, do you fully know the whole content of C3 Maths? Or just bits? I wanted to self teach it myself over the summer, but realised it is pointless, as I don't sit C3 till Year13! I'm best off preparing for M1, D1 and S1 -.- which is much less fun.

    I might just look into it, but not cover everything, as I can do that in the summer leading up to year13.

    Is FP2 the hardest? I just assumed FP2 nad FP3 were of equal difficulty or 3 harder than the other simply because it chronologically speaking, is the next module.

    I am doing FP2 and FP3 hopefully so I guess I would find out anyway!

    If you are going to self teach it then why don't you just do it. You could then self-teach two other modules and get an AS in Additional Further Maths :cool:

    It's very subjective. Some find FP3 harder, some find FP2 harder. It depends on which areas of pure Maths you are best at I suppose. I would have also though FP3 would have been harder.

    Can I definitely do that after doing Maths and FM with AQA? And I have to do an additional 3 exams? I think I would do FP2, FP4 and M3.
