i know 2u isn't assessed but I'm wondering if it's essential to still study for 2u?
Thanks !

Its called 4u for a reason.i know 2u isn't assessed but I'm wondering if it's essential to still study for 2u?

Try to negotiate with your school though. You can get through the 2U on your own fairly quickly if you're a capable student, no need to sit through a whole year worth of lessons when it can be done in 2 months.Its called 4u for a reason.
You have to do 2u work. 3u is an extension of 2u with a few extra topics.
And then when you get into 4u, they can incorporate any type of question they want. They can put an inequality question with series and sequences together or some shit.
You can't neglect 2u, you must finish the course.
With selective schools that can happen, because they offer accelerated subjects and blah blahTry to negotiate with your school though.

ftfyAs a 4U student, the only 2U content i know none of and dread being tested in 3U (because it can, cos harder 2U) is superannuation and loan repayments![]()

With a school that doesn't offer that, it's hard to negotiate with the teachers, because they'll have to work year 12 and year 11 timetables around just for one person. Instead they'll most likely reject it, and one will have to sit through the 2u lessons.
Plus OP is beginning 4u, he has yet to finish the 2u course (unless he has with a tutor or something) or the 3u course and is beginning the 4u. SO he will do them all.
With my school, i remember finishing two unit really early, finished the 3u course around mid july an 4u was around early August.
Plus doesn't OP have one teacher for Maths?
He wouldn't be wasting lessons, one day the teacher might do 2u work, while another 4u work.
hahaha everyone would accelerate maths!pretty much agree with you.
and to extend upon the bolded point you raise, I go to a selective school and first of all, it is too damn competitive to offer any level of maths in an accelerated form. and also all classes (2U, 3U and 4U) have one teacher only - easier for timetabling and easier for students and teachers to work with. even more generally, it is much easier for administrative purposes. and as FA16 says, my teacher will randomly do 2u today, and then 4u tomorrow. And the big thing is we as a 4u class can't go too fast for any topics, because the 2U, 3U and 4U assessments set are the same across the cohort and test the same topics.
So, although we could breeze through the 2U topics, we cover the 2u topics at the same rate as the 2U and 3U classes, to make sure all the classes stay aligned and pretty much ensure consistent progress across the cohort. of course, we still have the option as a competent 4u class to cover the 2u content quite quickly and spend a lot of that saved time on 4u and its difficulties.
so some food for thought there....
Hermione ganger can do thisSeeing as though the exams are on at the exact same time for the HSC then the school would have to be a special kind of sadistic to make you sit through all of the 2,3 and 4U classes.
Because she uses MIFHermione ganger can do this
Heck yeah, then everyone would get 99.95 atarDamn if only time turners existed hahaha
Oh yeah, lol soz.enigma pls "atar is a rank not a mark" wotudoin?!?!?!?!?!
2unit never heard of iti know 2u isn't assessed but I'm wondering if it's essential to still study for 2u?
Thanks !
You're essentially right, but how you've expressed it is quite confusing.2unit never heard of itbut seriously the 4u content itself is a mouthful to understand.
I think extension1 maths has some of those 2unit component like series and superannuation. The only applicable 2unit subject tht is quite important for 4u is probability.
Apart from tht extension 1 is harder 2 unit. So learning extension 1 would help u do better in 2unit as the concept are quite similar
Don't think that's possible cause we have the same class & teacher for 3u (covering both the 2 & 3u content)Try to negotiate with your school though. You can get through the 2U on your own fairly quickly if you're a capable student, no need to sit through a whole year worth of lessons when it can be done in 2 months.
