i dropped from 2 unit to general because i was failing and because my teacher treated me like crap, we only had one 2 unit class so i had no other option, 2 unit was way too hard for me.. and fallovachick, when i did my first general maths test i failed too but trust me its gets sooo much easier.

Lots of people in my 2u class dropped because of the teacher so you're not alone there fallovachick. There wasnt room in the other 2u classes especially because the other ones were merged with 3u people. As a matter of fact, half my class dropped because of the teacher so dont be so judgemental currysauce :p

try and do more revision on things that you havent done or dont remember, practice makes perfect. Yeah the preconception that EVERYBODY has is that general math is shit easy, however once you realised its shit we've done in junior years you sometime start to freak out.

however, study hard, revise more often and you'll be fine :)
mind you, the HSC exams for GENERAL maths is based on your ability to understand the tricky worded questions. So do more of them and get used to how questions are structured and what is asked of you.

good luck.

yeah well at my school, there are no 'other' two unit classes.. there is only one, the rest are general. i had to drop down cos i locked horns with the teachers heaps bad, she was a complete bitch (and my uncles ex wife hahaha) and the majority of the class were failing/dropped down.

im actually freaking out now cos i havent gone over any of the prelim shit they did (which is yeah, completely! different to 2 unit) and im about to sit my 1/2yearlys- 25 %

fun fun fun

p.s hi rach! :p

I movged down to General Maths at the start of this year, and it's good. I understand the work, and I'm finding it easy.

The work is easy. But I still go home and do my homework and study for tests. Definitely not as much as I did in 2 unit, but I'm getting better results in General, than I did in 2 unit (highest was 57% - lowest was 17%)
