I'm thinking about enrolling, does anyone know if these prep courses at Matrix are helpful? Is it worth it or overpriced? How big would the classes be?

Are the english ones any good? I'm considering going.

Is Matrix actually that good?

I'm curious too :/ I wonder if it's actually that good.

My friends did Matrix during the 2011/2012 summer holidays and they said apart from being really boring lectures, they give you good notes etc from it. About two or three who went who were in my English standard class, are topping it. I am thinking of going but it costs $180 or so for all the English sessions I want to go.

Ahh, okay. It looks really good, and the fact that they give you good notes is great. It costs a fair bit though =/

 

[petermeetswendy]

The amount of money is still a problem with me.

The english ones are terrible, get someone who can mark your essays individually and train you for assessments for your particular texts.

But I've heard excellent things about these courses for Maths and science. I'd actually recommend them for this.
