Easiest to hardest:

1. Complex nos
2. Polynomials
3. Graphs
4. Volumes (just annoying sometimes)
5. Conics
6. Integration
7. Harder 3U
8. Mechanics

 

[sirfeathers]

sorry, what is conics?

ellipses and hyperbolas and stuff. pretty much harder parametrics

 

[Dumbledore]

superbump

now that all the 09ers have probably done all or most of the topics

 

[gurmies]

harder 3 unit






mechanics

everything else is relatively simple.

This

 

[lyounamu]

harder 3 unit
mechanics
that's about it ...

 

[study-freak]

Hmm I thought mechanics is deemed hard only because it is taught the last.
But harder 3u, i have to agree, is the hardest.

this is what the head maths teacher told me... i find it enjoyable and not very difficult...
i also agree that harder 3u is the most difficult

far out.. everyone here is scaring me.

Harder 3U (in particular circle geometry Q)--->Mechanics--->Conics(more practice maybe)--->[All others are relatively easy]

This. Complex numbers are waaaay easy compared to integration.

I don't get it, how can Harder 3 unit be harder than chapters made just for 4 unit?

also circle geo, fuck i hate it, don't tell me the reasons get even more annoying to write

Mechanics sounds fun though.

Well, a lot of the chapters made for 4 unit are somewhat elementary extensions on the 3 unit course. Harder 3 unit starts to focus on more interesting mathematics, often brushing on number theory in HSC question 8s Mechanics is quite great, in particular circular motion. Resisted motion questions have very simple theory, but often the amount of manipulating necessary to reach a given result is counter-intuitive.

Wow, that sounds quite interesting, it sounds as mathematical as all HSC physics should be

Beginning of this year i was going to drop to 2 unit, didn't try at all got 50% in my first 3 unit exam, now im going to do 4 unit, got 89% in my last exam

Solid effort 4 Unit isn't as hard as it sounds (despite the fact that I haven't scored well in a single 4 unit exam thus far)

Easy to Hardest :
Harder 3u, Mechanics, conics, complex no. polynomials, volumes, integrations, graphs =p =p

Are you sure you didn't mean the other way around? Harder 3unit can no way be the easiest.

hah what i said is what i wish it would turned out to be =p
imagine harder 3unit becomes easier 3unit ><!

Haha, well it's good to hear it isn't too hard. I'm sure you'll do fine.

What is like the average score for the average 4 unit student in tests?

in tests i have only scored 1 mark out of possible 12 in probability =[[[

4 unit prob is terrible, particularly those "choosing paths" questions :|
