Current Year 12 Thread Mark I (2013-2014)

i have 1 hour on each FP1 is the hardest as there is alot new and more to remember, D1 i find so boring and tiresome i'm about halfway in D1 too

FP1 is pretty tricky yeah I agree

Did anyone do the Senior Maths Challenge on Thursday?

what are you doing in FP1 ? we was doing matrices but my teacher got bored by time we got in inverses and went ahead to some algebra or someing with alpha + beta =-b/c and alpha X Beta = a/c ?

Yeah we've just finished that alpha beta stuff with quadratics. First we did complex numbers, then graphs of rational functions (which is dislike), then matrices and matrix transformation. That's 5/11 chapters on AQA not bad going

matrix transformation is horrible when it's in sine and cosine form, i can do it by x and y easily though

Have you sat a D1 mock yet ?

You get the reflection and rotation identities in the exam so it's not too bad and nope still have to do linear programming then I will be able to sit one

that does not sound fun -.- i hate the technological side of D1 its the main reason i despise it !! i don't really want to do one as there is alot to remember there aswell

Did some last year but it's a fairly dry topic. I enjoy D1 though

is that even possible

Might do D2 next year

i shun it's existence :P

My problem is with statistics

I'm not a fan of stats though i can't say I've had a full experience with it

If my interviewer asks me "If you were an animal, what type of animal would you be?" Is human an acceptable answer

Yep, got my silver that I was aiming for One of the maths teachers marked every single paper (and there were a LOT) overnight.

Haven't done probability since year 9 though, and we don't do any D modules, so didn't get any of those marks
