Tbh Maths is the subject I'm most at peace with currently. All other subjects are driving me crazy.
I do C1, C2, M1 and S1.
S1- hardest
M1- easiest
To me currently anyway

S1 can't be that bad can it? I'd say Probability and Discrete are probably the hardest out of the module.

Do you do M1? And C12's sort of in the middle because I make a **** load of silly mistakes ugh

It's okay sometimes. The theory part where you have to derive a logical answer is where I get stuck mostly

I meant I agree with maths being easiest, sorry it was an awful way of putting it :tongue:

Nope I don't do M1! And yeah me too, that's where I always fall down, just with silly mistakes

I'm doing c1 c2 m1 s1 d1 and fp1, all of it is easy except for fp1 and bits of s1, d1 is just a retard fest

What in particular about fp1 are you finding it hard?

I'm doing C1, C2 and S1. Apart from making careless mistakes, I find most topics easy; the hardest is the word-y normal distribution questions, but I haven't practised many of them. This could be because I have gone over maths everyday since the beginning of September.

Ohh, I do biology too so yeah I agree with you on that xD which exam board are you?
I have been predicted AAAB, with a B in Chemistry. Ideally I'd like AAAA but tbh even a B is optimistic for chemistry haha :P wbu?

I have a few in mind like LSE, UCL and Kings too tho I haven't been booking those open and taster days yet. There's a particular set of universities which investment banks hire from (e.g. LSE & Warwick) so I have to try and get into one of those. :biggrin:

What does the taster day involve?

Its got nothing to do with the fact that he finds c2 easy relative to c1, it's the sknple fact that he finds c1 hard, I mean seriously he should look at fp1 (which isn't even actually that bad anyway)

alright mate, people's brains don't all work the same
he can find C1 difficult if he wants, it's just that he might be a standard deviation away from the mean in doing so
even so, no need for name-calling xoxo

I did it for a while and then dropped it. It wasn't really something I enjoyed so I preferred to stick to the subjects which I could tolerate most lol. Hoping to do well in them. How the hell have you guys not done the coursework yet tho? That's going to be killer when you have to all do it in a small time period.

Ohh right.. I wish I had dropped it or did something more enjoyable but, I decided to stick it out -.-
