Maths next week... Everyone ready? Has everyone been preparing a lot these last few days? What do you do for study? (Notes, Past papers?)

I'm glad that they put the Mathematics Exam with a day between the Extension 1 Exam. That way, next week can be maths week for me. Get it all over and done with :)

What's your favourite and most hated maths topics? Bam guys... start posting away.

For me...
Favourite 2U topic:Max and Min problems (so long as the complex questions aren't ridiculously wordy and confusing to understand...)
Most Hated 2U topic: Loans, Superannuation etc. My weakest topic, can do simple ones but just hate how they are so tedious, or I pick the wrong number of years when it has specific years, it throws me off...)
Favourite 3U topic: Parabola and Parametrics
Most Hated 3U topic: Permutations/Combinations! Generally hate them, love the question 1-3s but anything like last years Question 10 ... :chainsaw2:

Like: mechanics (all but circular motion), integration, conics, induction (why no induction yet!)

Hate: complex numbers in geometry, complex numbers in polynomials, complex numbers in q6/7, probability, locus

Ergo, I hate complex numbers
