Depends how your school do it, ours (like quite a few others it seems) is teaching our class AS and A2 Maths this year, then doing the actual further maths next year.

AS Maths was pretty easy though, so if you just do that it should be fine, I'm mainly having trouble with the A2 units and the massive amount of stuff we need to learn! (Plus I'm not actually any good at maths in the first place, if you're decent at maths im sure it's fine :tongue:

Hi! I'm doing As Level AQA Maths (C1,C2 & S1), AQA History (Tsarist Russia & Peter the Great), CIE Thinking Skills (mandatory), CIE Chemistry and Biology.
Seeing as this forum specializes in Tsarist Russia, and seeing as I need help in that area, I was wondering whether anyone will be willing to oblige?
Firstly, I am supremely confused with all the rebel groups, their dates, movements, motives and where they're descended from or who leads them! Is there an easy way to remember them or a good website or anything I could check out?

Thanks!

Speaking to people in my school the number seems very low, but there is still quite a bit of time before the exams.

I'm going over C3 and C4 though because I didn't understand them very well when rushing through the units in class.

Ahh the days when I used to do FM, I was forced to learn product rule, chain rule, quotient rule e^x etc for M2.

It entirely depends on you, really. Forget GCSE maths, only people with A*s at GCSE were allowed to take F.Maths at my school and a third of them are struggling (there are only 6 in my class). One is probably burdened by a language barrier (she speaks English fine, but she's an exchange student from Norway and might not have the best grasp of mathematical terms.). The other one, however, is finding things quite difficult, most notably the speed of it (to be fair our school only gave us one extra lesson for F.Maths, otherwise we have the same timetable as regular maths). Then there's a sort of middle ground in this class, with people who find some topics easy, others slightly difficult, and then there's myself and one other who don't really struggle :mmm:

I would argue that the reason we don't struggle is that we learn the topics out of class, unlike that second person I mentioned, who whines that teachers don't explain things fully and to his liking exactly, which is a ridiculous expectation given our time restrictions.

(We're doing AS Maths and F.Maths in Year 12, A2 for both in Year 13, unlike many schools.)

tl;dr - take f.maths and if you can't deal, drop it, if you can
