Hey Jamon!!
My problem is usually with the practice exams! And I know, people have been telling me to do more practice papers to get better at those Band 6 Questions. But honestly, I think the real problem is with the "thinking process" that is involved.
For example, if we get a Band 6 Trig Question and it's very unfamiliar... What is the thinking process that you or anyone who is a Band 6 in Mathematics undergo?
i hope my question make sense hahah...
If it targets band 6, you're not supposed to have seen it before.
Hence the emphasis on "thinking process". Because you've never seen it before, you're not going to have something right up your sleeve to directly attack the problem. If you do, it means you were already at the band 6 level, which at this point in the year most people are not.
For your first few problems, you might just think for a while and not find anything. So don't be hesitant to just look at the answer.
Then, as Jamon said, look for any patterns. Compare the thought process involved in using whatever rule they applied. See if there's any reason why they, for example, made a good choice picking the sine rule over the cosine rule and etc.
Well if this is a HSP then the order definitely matters. To the shops who put cheese on TOP of the meat, not within or below, then shame on you. Shame.
But for a kebab the order definitely doesn't matter
Pfft I will never have an HSP, too oily.
Well, if the order doesn't matter, don't you have to divide out by 3x2x1 (ignoring factorials at a general level because I dunno if they get taught it)
