SACs and application tasks aren't usually done as a SAC, unless you are in Unit 1?

If you are in unit 3, I'd suggest picking up A+ Notes for Methods, it has a bunch of extended response questions and normal questions on each topic.

We had one in unit 3 for methods (and one for spesh too).

Can someone please inform me as to what an application task is? I have one for methods next term, but I have no idea what they're about.

It's basically the application of maths to solve problems relating to a certain case, it's really similar to a case study if you've done those in Economics.
For example, i know our case study for is going to be on circular functions (specifically an unnamed student is going on a giant swing from camp) and you'll be given information about it (such as the original position being 16m) and you've gotta work with the scenario to give your answers.

Oh my god I'm so sorry haha. I meant to say trigonometry isn't... :S
