So did you we'll be saying that to the next 2007 4uniters

 

[Riviet]

Yes, that time will come kadlil... for now we have to suffer ;(
Oh yeah, today i was grabbing all my 4u textbooks for study and i realised that excel textbook was by patel and i was like OMG, so that's patel! Hehe i have all of now except for cambridge, which you guys say is not that good, so i take your advice and won't get it.

 

[Raginsheep]

From what I've seen, the general impression with Cambridge is that it looks ugly and/or the questions are ugly/hard. I found it to be pretty good and would recommend that at least you have a look at it.

 

[Riviet]

I have seen the 4u cam, ironically i'm using the 3u one for prelim, just finishing off some last topics before using the 3u hsc book. I would expect the 4u to follow the same structure and have the 3 difficulty of questions.

 

[Raginsheep]

They are different, namely because they have different authors. Like I said, I think its alright but then again, I was given all of my maths texts books by the school.

 

[mitsui]

patel is diff from excel even tho he is the author for the both books. xD
ok. lookin out for terry lee one then.
is his tuition good? bankstown huh? hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

[pLuvia]

He's suppose to be really good, I haven't experienced him yet, maybe this saturday or something

I'll give you feed back if I go

 

[mitsui]

lolz. but isnt he a bit far for u kadlil.??.. lolz
yea that would b gr8t. thx mate

 

[pLuvia]

It is but it might be worth it

 

[Riviet]

patel is diff from excel even tho he is the author for the both books.

Haha yeah, i have his excel book AND his small purple textbook (2nd edition). The textbook has more questions is more compact, and the excel one has comprehensive examples for revision and larger words lol. By the way, patel also has a 3u excel book so look out for that if you haven't already got it.

 

[mitsui]

woo...

how many textbooks do u guys have? juz curious..
um i onli have like..cam, fitz,.. ..phoenix...and random excel

 

[Riviet]

I somehow have the entire set mentioned in this thread XD except for cam.

 

[mitsui]

....

due to sever peer pressure, i guess i mite b end up buyin all of them
juz dont do any. =D

 

[pLuvia]

Damn you sure you need enough lol, I only have Terry Lee and Cambridge And they are enough I reckon, and BoSer's questions

 

[Riviet]

Lol, i have a surplus of questions for me to do...

 

[Trebla]

Omg, we just started Conics today with implicit differentiation. It's alright so far, but from what I heard it's the hardest topic in the course....ah crap......

 

[pLuvia]

How many topics have you done Trebla?

 

[Riviet]

I heard the hardest was mechanics and that circular motion topic, also the harder 3 unit can get very hard...

 

[Stan..]

Depends how algebraically confident you are.

 

[Riviet]

If you are confident with the geometry of the parabola and parametrics topic in 3u, then the conics will not be hard since you do stuff like parametric equation of the ellipse and hyperbola and chord of contact which is a bit of deja vu since we've done it for the parabola in 3u.
I'm looking forward to 4u.
