my modules:

this year
FP1
D1
D2

next year:
M2
FP2
S2

The FP modules are by far the best.

So you actually enjoy doing the circle questions in FP2? Seriously it's torture!!!!

Well doesn't the content of the FP modules depend on the exam board?

Anyway my favourite maths module was C3, but I also really enjoyed FP1. I liked FP2, but I did quite poorly on it tbh. :redface:

FP1 has been my favourite maths module this year out of C1, C2, S1, D1, D2, FP1. Interesting stuff.
D1 for life :biggrin:

Yeah FP1 (for Edexcel at least) introduces you to new, exciting things. :biggrin:

What other a levels do you do? (Other than maths obviously!)

I want to do FP3 also, might study it outside of school next year. Will be very useful knowing Differential Equations for Physics.

My FP3 has no differentiation at all...

What circle questions? Loci of complex numbers?

OCR FP2 is amazing. FP3 touches on some uni maths (Groups/Eigenvalues) which is pretty cool.

Of course, AQA FP4 is nothing but vectors and matrices, which is so cool.

Weird that, all of the Matrix topics are in FP1 OCR. What's in FP1 AQA?

Not quite correct, most of the Matrix content for OCR is in FP3, same for Edexcel.

Looks like AQA FP1 has a small amount of matrix stuff... of course compare that to the insanely awesome FP4 syllabus =D
Does noone do M1? It's so much fun.

Thats exactly what I did back in the day! Dropped Chemistry after AS though - I hated it!

I did M1, M2, M3. I actually did M2 and M3 first then went back and did M1. :tongue:
