I have a textbook for it. Looking at the content is giving me a headache though. I'm going to try finding a PDF for you. I had one in my computer but I deleted it when I got my hands on a physical copy.

finished it now, easy enough but it got very boring, i hope you enjoy hypothesis testing is all i can say haha, only done it over M3 because S3 was shorter (and I really only enjoy Further pure)

oh god :facepalm: a night owl are we?

also incase you're interested; how to save £35 (as paper + ink probably cost about £10 :laugh:)

Hypothesis testing isn't the worse thing in the world, I guess. :tongue: I feel the same as you re: doing only fp.

Think I'm gonna head to bed now! Thanks again. :smile:

That is impressiiiive! :biggrin:

I've signed up for S3 :biggrin: My exams officer was super sarcastic and was even referring to D1 as "donkey 1" :lol::stupid:

My FP3 mock was a lot nicer than I imagined it'd be, but no nice reduction formula came which was a bit disappointing. I liked the vector question, though!

Thank you for the confirmation :h:

Please do tell me you'll be doing S3 as well - I've already registered for it :colondollar:

How are you liking matrices, by the way?

No problemo. :-)

Yes, I'll be doing it, got the book and everything. Will have a flick through when I'm in the car and have nothing to do or something. :biggrin: When are you planning on starting it?

The beginning part seems easy enough, I'm very cross with how they put forward learning inverses of 3x3 matrices. It's just some random algorithm? :confused: So I've gone off and learnt a much more intuitive method off google. :yep:

I don't know, I've already covered some chapters back in September such as goodness of fit and combination of random variables but I kinda forgot it all! I want to start doing it once I'm a 100% solid on F2, F3 and M3 (if ever), so I hope by March latest? The exam is kinda early, so best to get started soon.

Ooo, do share me a link. It felt like decision to me.

March latest sounds good, drop me a line when you start, I'll probably start around the same time as you.

This: https://www.khanacademy.org/math/precalculus/precalc-matrices/determinants-and-inverses-of-large-matrices/v/inverting-matrices-part-3 the ending bit is where he's explain why what he's doing works and everything just clicked into place for me!
