How long to self teach D1 or M1?

I don't have a lot of time so preferably three weeks for either one. Do you think it's possible?

I personally would not be able to cover all of M1 in three weeks but I think it depends if you're a quick learner which I am not :smile:

I don't know about M1 as I haven't done it but you should be able to cover D1- it's pretty easy really and not that much to learn. The main challenge is not dying of boredom.

From what my teachers have said (they've been teaching for 10+ years and are amazing) D1 is pretty damn easy. My teacher said an ex-student learned it in like a day. I've personally not done D1 but there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of content, especially difficult content it just doesn't sound that interesting. M1 is very interesting, I really enjoyed it but found it very difficult at first so I wouldn't recommend doing that in a few weeks.

Is m1 and d1 possible in March and April? Kind of doubtful seeing as M1 is quite difficult like you said

If you mean between now and then, absolutely. If you mean starting in March and ending in April (so 1 month?) I'd say it's very tough but you could do it if you were very dedicated.

Starting in March and ending at the start of April so two months?
I dunno if I'll have enough time for exam practice

You *could* do it in that time, but you've surely got other things to be doing as well? Wouldn't really recommend it but it's possible.

D1 is ridiculously easy, then again m1 is pretty easy to self teach if you do physics already
