Guys who do 4 unit, do you find 3u really easy now? (1 Viewer)

[v.tex]

Have found that just doing 4u has made most of the 3u questions seem really easy. Theres only a couple that catch me off guard, mainly found in cambridge enrichment

What about you guys?

What were ur marks like in yr 11 3u to get into 4u?

They weren't amazing, think i got around an 80 something average, ranked around top 10 for a 25 person class. My school would probably let anyone in 4u lol. One guy was gonna join who got an average of 38%

oh ok i think 80% average is also acceptable in my school
tho im not sure bc they're so strict all of a sudden they made all the yr 12 3u class (literally only 2 accelerated tho they dont technically count bc they're class of 26) we dont have a 4u class this yr

your school is actually fucking retarded. Why the fuck does the band 6 rate even matter to your school? If there's even one band e4, regardless of how many e2s there are, that's still good enough...

Guys how do i get better at induction inequalities i am so bad at them

backwards reasoning is a good thing to use if ur stuck + taking everything to the lhs and proving that quantity is >0 or <0

They dont care they only want e4s n if ppl cant even make it to 90% on the internal assessments the math faculty makes u drop (they literally force u to drop)

Tbh I agree with you slightly, it is just those pesky end-of-exam trial questions with like a good level of difficulty that get u for a second that is annoying. But having done all of the 3U ans 4U content, it is SOOO much easier doing 3U because of 4U. For example, look at this 3U vector question from 2022:

It is literally asking to prove an inequality, which is MUCH easier now that we know 4U proof (just prove that RHS² - LHS² >= 0 using dot product!!!)

And this was one of the hardest questions in the paper too!

NOPE… differential equations is pmo but most other topics r quite chill

I dunno I guess so? I don't think I really experience a correlation, however I make so many dumb mistakes in integration (both subjects) its the actual bane of my existence
