Re: Current Year 11 thread mark IV (woo!) / Year 12 2012/13Hmh. That's a difficult one. It'd be easier to name the topics I don't like that much to be honest! I like the majority of it. There isn't a certain topic which I could up my finger on and say 'I like this most'. I dislike drawing/plotting graphs - I just don't find it interesting.
Ahah! I hate transformations of graphs too. Buggars. I'm not too keen on the modulus in C3 either. Domains/ranges etc. Its not that enticing. But that is also related with graphs.
I'd say I love algebra - but that's very broad, the pure side of maths contains a lot of it!
I also enjoy calculus, trig, sequences/series.. There's lots! /: I enjoy the Mechanics too - I expected this, as my love for Physics almost matches my love for maths 
How about yourself?

To fight and conquer in all our battles is not supreme excellence; supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy's resistance without fighting.
I didn't understand what was happening in episode one.. Until the end

When you say you dislike graphs, does that include integration and Differentation?(Original post by CharlieBoardman)

I think my favourite bits (I love most bits) are trigonometry

You won't need to worry though, cos your results are gonna be awesome!
I'm making my family wait in the car so that I can check them out first that way if I do well I can get them to take me up to London, and if I don't... I can buy some time by hiding in the school!

So is everyone teaching themselves A-level maths? ;D I think being normally smart is good for me, I'll stick with learning from a teacher you?

Is there any cpg books for AS level maths which contain all the units? I've looked and they're all individual ones.
