I went to two lectures. Pay attention to those engineering disaster things: half the exam is like "look at this picture and tell me what happened."

how are you all finding it now? I'm still trying to find a level 1 science subject to do next semester and despite it having rather high contact hours it seems fairly easy...

Do calc1?

i hated methods too much to do any of the homework, i found it so repetitive and boring--so probably wont be able to enjoy calculus..... besides, i've forgot everythingggg and im lazy ha.

I did half the course on saturday and sunday (and I was never up to date throughout semester, only knew what was required for me to learn for the weekly assignments). Past exams are near identical.

Calculus 1 is the bomb.

Real Analysis on the other hand.....

Pretty much except without the physics.  But it's not VCE-oh-my-gosh difficult.  The exams are fair.  The coordinator wants to test your knowledge, not to directly rank you to the person sitting next to you in lectures.

Calculus 1 & 2 exams follow basically the same format each semester, especially Calculus 2 where the questions are basically similar each semester.

It is a blend of spec and methods, but it's taught well, unlike 99% of high school maths

how do you actually study for esd? none of the past exams have solution and as far as I know there is no workbook to work through. are you supposed to just look through the lectures?

Anyone know how simple a flowchart gotta be? Like for things like following the line do u just write corner check and follow line ? or do u write if light intensity greater than ? Or do u have to draw how itll follow the line? :-\
