When you're 1.5 years away from the HSC, there are no Holidays, there is no merry making... none.

if you say there's no holidays then you're doing year 11 wrong lol

Oh lord, maths. Man, I hate my school and their mentality "Lets have you do MIF but lets make your exams 100x harder!" (for 3U)

This is my school.

This is my school.

Do you think it would be possible if we ask our teacher to change from MIF to Cambridge? I know our school bought MIF, and actually, they replaced Year 7 - 10 books with Cambridge instead of Signpost, so I feel like they should do the same for Year 11 - 12. Even if that means maybe getting the students to pay for their own book. I totally prefer to suffer the difficulties in Cambridge and then do well in my exams rather than breezing through MIF and suddenly being whacked by an exam that requires you to be able to utilise the formulas on the spot.

It wouldn't hurt to try.

Use MIF to get a foundation, then apply that foundation to the questions of Cambridge to further your knowledge.

I advise that you use Cambridge at home.

Whats so great about cambridge ? We use New senior maths and i think its pretty legit. But i still don't use it for question(Trial question ftw)

Problem is, I'm barely holding on with completing MIF homework, since we move through it really quickly. And also due to bad organisation, where I'm doing other work and never putting 100% in completing everything in one night, every night. So the only time I ever look at Cambridge is when I'm doing some tutoring, so I have only ever had samples of Cambridge questions.

All I know is that the questions are much harder than MIF.

Hands down Fitzpatrick tops the most challenging mathematics textbook after Terry Lee

 

[Green Yoda]

lucky my school uses Fitzpatrick

 

[Speed6]

I also don't satisfy the requirements of the board to study Mathematics at least 1 hour per day. Some days I just don't other days I go for hours. Mathematics should be the highest priority.

Other subject/s always gets in the way, namely and predominantly English.
