I've had 2 physics tests, was supposed to have one last monday but the teacher forgot... I hope it stays that way!

Chemistry and maths tests this monday though :frown:

I think our biology lot have one too, but I doubt they're doing all of unit 1 already!

My biology folder is twice as full as my other folders... it's obvious which subject I'm most interested in right now! :colondollar:

Our class is speeding - its hard to keep up ... i tend to read a head..but i cant ! - the bad thing is that we are covering it properly ... there is soooooooooo much to learn !

What topics have you covered in physics? - what other subjects are you doign ?

Thread has been rather quiet :redface:

Higher Level Maths is a reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal bitch. It's ridiculously fast paced.
In about 5 weeks we've covered, in great depth:
Complex Numbers
Logarithms & Exponents
Relations and Functions
Quadratics, Discriminants and Roots
Radian Measure
Bit of Trig
Triangles
Circles (Arcs & Sectors)

Ours is the same! We have done our first NAB and halfway through our second unit! It's so difficult too :/. A real bitch

Does anyone here do philosophy and ethics? I was just curious if anyone else feels like you want to tear your hair out but are in love with it at the same time :wink:

We've done material properties and electrical stuff so far in physics, I think we're 3/4 of the way through each of those topics. I've found the materials stuff pretty easy, but the electrical stuff expects much more prior knowledge than I have (grr OCR 21st century science :angry:

).

I'm also doing chemistry, history and double maths. How about you?

I'm not but I'm interested in what you mean? What do you do in the lessons and why is it frustrating? I thought it would be really interesting!
