Do you guys ever feel stupid after something clicks and look back to yourself thinking 'how did I not get that...?'


Definitely! I remember at the very beginning of year 12 my physics teacher was trying to teach us how to resolve forces in what has to be the most complicated way possible. After several lessons I went home and looked at it properly and suddenly thought 'oh, it's just trigonometry' and everyone got it after that :lol:

Ahhh I love trig! The only thing I've found a bit tricky in c4 is probs integration

What sort of integration do you do in C4?

Intergration by inspection, substitution, by parts and another one I can't think of (i think) we've only briefly done it in f maths so we could carry on with syllabus, not actually done it with normal maths teacher

AQA is probably easier tbh, we do other exam boards' questions 'as a challenge' but edexcel does seem easier than the others.

It's easy j because of the sheer amount of resources available

I find the core maths easy but the further stuff hard. I feel like edexcels markschemes are less forgiving but easier content; does this make me an idiot? probably :lol:

I know those days, the day which had 2 science exams and then spanish listening reading and the history/french combo were the worst :|
