It's not as hard as I thought it would be, luckily! But I missed all of Chapter 2 Vectors which is what was covered during transition last year, so I'm trying to catch up on that. Otherwise it's been going great! We're doing complex numbers and graphing right now :D

Yeah vectors and complex numbers are pretty cool, I just had my 'SAC' that's not a SAC on them today so onwards to trig for me - which involves graphing inverse circular functions so... kill me now

Are vectors and complex numbers part of the specialist maths unit 1/2 course? It sounds interesting :)

Yes. Vectors and complex numbers are both in the 1/2 component of specialist maths. It's also repeated in unit 3/4.

Enjoy trig, it has been the biggest pain in the ass so far for spesh.

Yeah it's so much harder than methods trig

Is methods trig anything like year 9 trig?

No, methods trig is circular functions like graphing variations of sin, cos and tan functions

Thanks :)

So basically I did French (47 raw) and accounting (39 raw) which is obvs not the best

I'm already doing English, Methods, Chem and Spesh next year which I'm pretty certain about

Now I'm just concerned at whether to pick up HHD or not

At my school, getting high 40s in Methods, Chem and Spesh is pretty much unheard of and I'm 110% (wow nice maths) sure that I'm not going to be the one that breaks that record considering I'm average in my year level

So HHD scales down heaps and my goal is to hit a 48+ but obvs that's a goal which we know is always quite high at the start of the year

According to some friends, HHD is basically rote memorisation which I'm good at, so is it worth doing?

I have a feeling I'll do better in HHD then my other subjects but obvs it gets harder at the competitive time so tbh I had no idea

Will it even help my ATAR I dunno tbh

Thanks everyone
47 for french is awesome, how did you do it! :)
