That's mad expensive. I was crying at having to pay £146 a week for an ensuite at birmingham

Yeaaahhh boiiiii!! Add me on FB and join the group!

Are you studying Phys?

that pun...

I feel like I'm having to re-learn everything

I felt like I had to relearn a lot of things, but I don't know, something just clicked in me and it turns out I don't really need to relearn anything, because I really tried to understand the ideas in my head. Maybe it's because my head is now attuned to maths being one harmonious entity, rather than separate discrete parts of one family, if you get me. Like, the way there are several ways to get to the same answer... it's all mathematics.

That was beautiful.

No but seriously, that makes a lot of sense. I might try to merge the maths boundaries and see what happens. Thanks

I think your maths intuition is a lot stronger than mine :L normal maths is great i love it but further maths is just ridiculous in parts. unless its calculus or markov chains and then I'm having a party. Just not very good at other things. :s

Guess who's gonna fail fp2?

corporate tax reduction & alcohol tax reduction: absolute joke
Tories talking up reducing the deficit as a result of cutting welfare spending: disgusting
Spending so many million on a veteran monument: waste of money
The first time buyer savings accreditation: actually alright


The thing that irritates me the most about the conservative party is how they constantly talk about reducing the deficit as being a main priority. I understand reducing the national deficit is important but if it comes at the price of 1mil people visiting food banks in a year, zero hour contracts, unstable mental health jobs (ie mentally ill people seeing new psychiatrists every three weeks), 5 hours waiting time in a&e, social workers having more cases than they can handle, reducing welfare pay so much so that working families can only just afford to put money on the table & so that people trying to get onto the property ladder can only afford to rent, then I think prioritising it is absolutely ridiculous. Austerity doesn't lead to a healthy society; maybe it works for the rich but not for the working class & vulnerable in our country.

Well, if you look at the grand scheme of things, you're applying for engineering(?)
That's mainly calculus and you like that so

Can't imagine us having to use things like that Newton-Raphson stuff next year etc.

All I associate Newton Raphson with is that it looks like a staircase if you do it autograph I'm glad that was only part of our coursework. I'd die if I had to do that in an exam!

I don't even know what it is exactly... I know it's a rough approximation but it doesn't sound that​ useful. Whether I'll regret saying that, I don't know

I can hear Newton turning in his grave.

When do your exams start?Mine start on 18th May!

Fun fact: apparently Raphson didn't even work with Newton on the Newton-Raphson thing, he just decided to put Newton's name in front of it to make people think he actually did work with Newton and that he's clever, something like that (so I heard, not entirely sure if this is true)

Does anyone want a very good riddle?
