bettina44 said:my teacher said you should get an average of 90+ in maths to do maths ext2.i also want to do 4u maths only cause i want to drop eng ext,phy and dt by the end of the year. my marks are fine and all but she told me not to do it since its got nothing to do with what i want to be-graphic/interior design,yes i know sooo maths related.
on another note,the other day my friend chem teacher(who's asian) was rambling on about something that no one got,and she called out 'you know not everyone has asian brains.' lol
I read somewhere that Asians genetically are better at math and sciences, forgot the source though.lyounamu said:By the way, I don't think Asians hold a particular aptitude in Mathematics. It is just that they work hard in their subjects. Some may be naturally gifted but most work their way.
I love those weirdo questions, because it's usually only me and a handfull of other people who actually get them done. It usually just means a few extra marks for me.eliseliselise said:but they always throw a weirdo question at you in the test

that was quite an inspiring speech imo.eliseliselise said:yeah, 4 unit is by far the most rewarding course you can take in high school [imo]. there's no greater satisfaction than that encountered after staying up till 4am trying to work out some crazy hsc question, and after the 54864035204 pages of algebra; finally getting it right [without peeking at the solutions]!!
hummm last year... ah yes they were the days... 2unit maths was always above 90%, and 3 unit varied from 70-100%. i had a very solid understanding of the 3unit stuff, coz thats like all i did, but they always throw a weirdo question at you in the test i was ranked in the top 3.........
oh, & i'm not asian [i wish i was though].
but yeash, its still early days kiddo and this time last year i didn't even know what 4unit was. put the work in and see what your teacher says. & if you do end up doing it, buy the terry lee book!!
believe in yourself & remember that i^2=-1
sayoonara!
