    School Litter Policy

    My school has enacted a new litter policy and it is garbage. (Pardon the pun) The rule is that if any teachers catches you standing near, or walking past any litter without cleaning it, you get a "Litter Detention".

    Worst case scenarios

    I dont think that is such a big deal... Most of the topics in 4unit doesnt require you to evaluate values, usually in exact values. Other than the possible questions in Mechanics or Motion questions in Harder 3 unit, i dont think not having a calculator in a 4u exam is that bad.

    Hardest 4U topic

    I had thought initially that mechanics would be the hardest, but after doing it for a while, its actually quite easy now. Hardest i would say is Harder 3u, especially the probability questions and circle geometry ones.

    Past Papers
