i reckon general students should get more credit for surviving the course... we have to sit through months of loans, and interest rates, and credit cards...:rolleyes:

Look behind you
You're right there.

I do 4 unit english and general maths.

I reckon people that go gen. maths are the smartest cause unless you really love maths, who needs it. Computers do all our maths these days.

2 reasons for doin 4u :
1) SCALING ..... is there anything more to say?
2) doing 4u maths makes studying uni maths so much easier ...

basically, its not the love for the subject ...
