somebody's anxious that ppl are getting an advantage ay Rench...

1. Does it cover the whole course...i.e. is it a whole-day lecture sort of thing?
2. How much does it cost?

(1) The morning lectures deal with extra-curricular applications on mathematics. (I must say that the lectures could have been better organised and more involving other students.) In the afternoon session, students go to one topic of the Extension 2 course and learn techniques to master that topic.

(2) I have forgotten; $35 rings a bell.

yeah i think that sounds right..... just ask ur teacher, if they hav no idea, tell em 2 read their mail from the maths assoc.

TSD is worth it. Best idea is to get students from your school to go to all the different afternoon topics, and then share notes.

Is the TSD like the USyd lectures? I.e. you can only choose one topic?

 

[McLake]

For the morning you get an overview that all students go to, but in the afternoon, yes, you can only go to one (Note: this is based of past years, it may have changed).

 

[ishq]

When is it?
Anyone know?

 

[~ ReNcH ~]

I think they invite you, so you don't need to worry about missing it.

So I'm presuming that an invitation is sent to all schools that have students sitting MX2...?

 

[dawso]

ask maths teachers, run by maths assoc...

 

[ishq]

It might be interesting.

ruse doesnt send their whole grade to tsd...not even their whole top class
last year there were only 4 ruse students there, of which one was a yr11 medallist and not a 4u student yet
and even worse, they made us wear school uniform, including our blazer...our jerseys hadnt arrived yet (they usually arrive around last week of term 3)

 

[Trev]

Is your school uniform bad or something? Or are you stating that you would have been recognised because of it?....

 

[blackfriday]

well wouldnt you rather where year 12 jersey than full scale blazer?

 

[~ ReNcH ~]

Do you have to wear school uniform or is that up to the discretion of the school?

Good question. No teacher at my school has ever remarked on this, and I, personally, have never heard of it.
