So do you think he said "You have not completed the outcomes of the course" meaning that i haven't learnt it? See, i dont think he has a problem with me accelerating (because i am already accelerated by 1 year), but i think that he might have the misconception that i have to sit in on each...

thanks namu for all your support. I suppose that the only problem is my HT of mathematics. It seams he has his mind set on me not doing it. Although, when i asked him, it seamed like he didnt even consider the possibility, just, no. Would you have any advice on how i could change his mind?

Thanks namu So are you suggesting i do all the tests first, or are you suggesting that i continue my prelim adv and do the tests as they come whilst doing HSC adv maths? And yes, i agree with not doing the 3 unit as well. Spreading the HSC out over 3 year would be much easier. And my...

Wow, you were "actually" banned!? I though it was just a joke you did lol

And namu, would it be to much to ask; could you look at this thread of mine http://community.boredofstudies.org/2/school/199270/acceleration-policies.html . I would really like to hear your opinion about my problem.

I do have both of them and so i will do that. I have about 6 or 7 free's and no other HSC/Prelim classes so should i learnt it in my frees?

Hi, I am someone who accelerated into the Preliminary maths adv. and ext. 1 courses. Now, how i came about to do this was that in year 8 i found a passion for mathematics when I asked if my teacher could show me calculus. Soon after, i started to learn all the lower mathematics (9, 10 and 11)...

Hi, I have started mathematics advanced and mathematics extension 1 this year. I am at a school where the teachers are not very good and they use the most basic text book for the courses (maths in focus). To give some context, the highest score in mathematics advanced last year (in the HSC) was...

yes, this is right.

I got this aswell. edit: With the edited question, i get it with -10.

Okay, so the new rate is equal to 100% + 7.5% = 107.5%, so 107.5% = $1735, then just solve. If you need help with it, just ask :)

Thats right, except it is on Feb 17.

yeh, roughly this. The pay increases are actually 4.4% from January 2009, 3.8% from Jan 2010 and 3.8 from 2011. So its around 12%

whoops! :o I'll fix it up

\int{x^2} = \frac{x^3}{3} hence \int_{2}^{3}{x^2} = \frac{3^3}{3} - \frac{2^3}{3} = 3^2 - \frac{8}{3} = 9 - \frac{8}{3} = 6\frac{1}{3}

I completely agree with the report. In school, mathematics is taught as a 'memorize this formula and use it here' kind of way. This is one of the reasons why students hate maths... its because they are not learning maths. Maths should be taught as something beautiful, some thing purely logical...

My one is still here where the circumcircle is the circle that touches all 3 points on triangle CED. (circumcircle stuff is in cambridge :P)

The circumcircle is the circle that touches all 3 points of the triangle. wikipedia (Circumscribed circle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) has more info.

Question: Circle geometry The side AB of a triangle ABC is a diameter of a circle of radius R, and C lies on this circle. The angle bisector of angle BAC meets BC at E and then the circle at D. When produced, AC meets the circumcircle of triangle CED at F. If BC = a, express CF in terms of R and a.

Hey, sorry to butt in and such, but im kind of doing the same thing, i have done all of prelim adv and ext (learnt by myself), should i start learning 4 unit when i start doing my prelim adv and ext 1 classes this year? And should i start year 12 aswell? What are the main advantages with...
