    Know how to do questions one, two and three, they are usually very similar to textbook examples. If you're good, you can probably get to 4 and 5 :)

    Easy complex # question

    Let me see, I'll try that but not assuming that the case is true: 0 = 0 1 - 1 = 0 1 - 0.5 - 0.5 = 0 Because cos(pi/3) = 0.5 and cos(2pi/3) = -0.5, 1 - cos(pi/3) + cos(2pi/3) = 0 ....... equation (blah) now: sin(pi/3) = sin(2pi/3) isin(pi/3) = isin(2pi/3) isin(2pi/3) -...

    Easy complex # question

    I'm stuck too: let p = z_1, q = z_2 because OPQ is equilateral, q = p(cis(pi/3)) Trying direct substitution, p^2 + q^2 = pq p^2 + (p^2)cis(2pi/3) = (p^2)cis(pi/3) divide all by p^2, 1 - cis(pi/3) + cis(2pi/3) = 0 1 - cos(pi/3) - isin(pi/3) + (cos(2pi/3) = -cos(pi/3)) +...

    Do you bother writing out notes?

    Once you type them (not copying of course), you should be able to remember everything anyways. It's not like factual recalls are hard.. Unless your notes are 100+ pages..

    Mock exams

    That should be plenty enough for 3, or even 4 more mock exams. Will sleep, relax, meditate and stuff on sunday. Anyways, we sure have confident people here in this forum. Maybe I should have put "I'm a nerd" instead of "baby" there ;)

    Woah, thanks for the info :D i'll take a look at those.. too bad I'm not allowed to drink, got G6PD deficiency syndrome... looks like I'm gonna be spending way more time in maths than other subjects, even though scaling has less effect in the higher marks... Damn scaling!

    4u maths VERSUS 3u maths

    Probably. That's 1 minute out of total 180, so proportionally you should be spending 180 more times learning how to use a new calculator :D btw i'm bringing 2 calculators, maybe more if I get to get a good one. Shopping time soon~ :D
