our teacher circled the ceremony building its, 'union building' and has an arrow pointing to C10A SAM

ah yes, C10A (or the SAM building) is the atrium

you can't really miss it cos it the "centre" of MQ uni and there should be signs leading to it

Inequalities was probably one of the revision topics (if not the best).

As for the extension topics, I went to diophantine and differential. Both had their good points, and I learnt a few things from both, but... there was certainly room for improvement.

from the notes that i saw so far of polynomials and curve sketching.. inequalities seemed like the most dealt with =D

was anyone in the cryptography session 1? the guy was so funny, with white fuzzy hair. he talked about the world war II more than the actual cryptic stuff, which was good because the maths of it turned out to be very simple and straightforward :(

second session i went to quantum physics, which was also very boring, although it did sort of relate to complex numbers. im sure i would have enjoyed cellular automna more if it was on.

last session was conics, that was alright, slightly worth my time, i suppose. he showed some proofs that might end up being useful.

does anyone remember the lady that was hosting the presentation in the bright aqua shirt? shes my teacher :)

and you could not have possibly missed seeing my school somewhere or somehow...we had the bright blue blazers and green skirts. :eek:

Um, did you even listen? They were HIS notes. I mean, you're free to see the worst in him, but I think that's a little stupid.

The only time he was clueless was when that guy was asking the very simply question about letting x_1=(y_1)^n, x_2=(y_2)^n, et cetera.

yeah, we werent sayin that steele, just observed that he was obviously under prepared at knowing the material a bit but oh well, he did explain each and every step which is important in these style questions, so ofetn textbooks just go from a to b and with no reason y they do it...
