Scaling only works according to our marks right?

I'm doing it because I'm relatively good at maths, but the scaling is always a factor.

[Dragonmaster262]

Finished Complex Numbers, Polynomials, Some of Harder 3 Unit and Graphs (because my school cheated by starting half way through last term).

Currently on Integation.

I use Fitzpatrick, Terry Lee, Patel and Cambridge.

Unfair =.=

Self teach at home...At school we are doing complex (boring) but I have practically finished the course...

* What book are you using?

None as yet. Year 12 2009 have them. We make do with photocopies sheets.

* What topic your starting with?

Complex Numbers. Up to vectors, sadly we had a late start.

* What pace is your school going at?

Speedy, well I think. My class started late but seems to be catching up with ease.

* How are you coping?

i find the concepts simple but a little too much homework, its chewing into my other subjects.

* How much time you spend on each exercise?

Varies but seems to be far too long.

At my school all my math classes are separate; 2U School time, 3U Out, 4U Out.
How about yours?

2U-done. 3 and 4 U scheduled periods in school time.

You can never finish the 4U course. There's always more to do =D

What book am I using? Fitzpatrick. I bought Cambridge as well for the hell of it, to supplement.
What topic am I starting with? Complex numbers.
What pace is it? Pretty relaxed - an exercise per two lessons I reckon. At least for now.
How am I coming? Very well.
How much time do I spend per exercise? Well, maybe an hour or so.
When I have class, what does our teacher do? Mark exams, while he lets us work in silence. Or look out the window.
How's our classes? 2u is in school, 3u is in school with earlies every Thursday, 4u is completely out of school. Super Tuesdays is the best day, Period 5 - Maths 2u, Period 6 - Maths Ext 1, Period 7 (after school) - yes, you guessed it, MX2!
2u and 3u topics? 2u we're finishing off Prelim with Series and Sequences, sum to 'n' terms currently. 3u we are doing Trigonomeric Equations. Yummy.

I'm doing it for scaling, my love of maths, and the feeling I get when I get the answer to a question I've been working at for a long time. I'd say it's comparable to getting a girlfriend and kissing her, although I wouldn't know about that...

fitzpatrick textbook is somewhat lacking..

They do catagorise a little bit:

Topic:
-Exercises
-Diagnostic Test
-Further Questions (same as extension basically)

[Jonneeh]

Wow i seem to be spending too much time per exercise compared to everyone else, even with the time spent i dont feel like im uptaking much information

[ninetypercent]

yeah, I'm with Jonneeh. I spend too much time per exercise.

At my school we started ext2 in week 2 so we have only had 3 lessons so far. Im using cambridge and terry lee textbooks. Were up to modulus and argument. The only thing i dont like about cambridge is that there are not fully worked solutions in the answers section (most textbooks dont do this anyway but.....) for those questions where u just get stuck.

Complex Numbers. Up to Locus

I actually have no idea what I'm up to, but it's about what Yash said. But I think we're a bit ahead. Our class mixes up our 3/4U work and though I have separate books once I shut them I completely forget what I've been doing. I would say I'm doing about half an hour of maths work a night, because I can't really be bothered. So basically I'm screwed, but whatever.
