our school is crazy, we used to have 4u lessons EVERYDAY!!!! yep that is every morning Period X, from 7.30am (period1 for other people starts at 8.40am), but now, as some girls is also doing english extension in the morning, so it's 4 lessons a week, each lesson about 1hr.
Despite that, we are not that ahead, have done complex, polynomial, conics, and starting to integrate

i will rank these subjects from easiest to the hardest (out of the 3 i have complete)
1. Conic Section (despite some of the Qs are tedious, but i am an algebra person, and you feel intelligent after finishing 1Q in 1hr)
2. Polynominal (I can't recall much of this topic, all i know that it's a short one, we will learn part 2 later on)
3. Polynominal (I suppose I rank this as the hardest out of the 3, as I bludge the whole Xmas holiday and end up not doing any revision questions on it)
That is the exact opposite order to which i found it. After completing conics, i find it much easier than when i was doing it, however i still found it by far the hardest of those i have done. Here's my order (easy to hard):

1. Complex Numbers - nothing difficult here (before q7/q8 that is)
2. Graphing - once you get the hang of it, theres nothing they can ask you that you can't do
3. Polynomials (closely following graphing) - found it pretty easy after a bit of practice
4. Conics - some q's are easy, but some can be quite hard (ie, look at the conics q. posted on this forum)

I start integration on thurs.

Ugh I had mine a while ago too... it was soo crap. I don't think I understand the whole complex number concept... only 3 weeks till the half yearlies too... god I sometimes feel like I should drop already :(
