We just had a class test (informal assess) for prob. and i am the only person doing 3unit and i only got 76%...

should i be worried or is probability one of topics?... plus it was quesitons from a 1970's exxam, so hardly understandable...

what makes me more worried is a 2unit person got 100% LOL, oh well at least the formal ones i am 1st... but this has got me thinking.

Probability is one of those things you either get or you don't, I wouldn't be stressing about it too much.

How dare you, that's one of the easiest topics in 3U IMO. Though it can be tedious.

Do lots of problems and you'll get rid of those mistakes and get your 90%.

The thing with probability (especially 4unit) is all the fucking factors you have to account for - one miss and you lose big time.
