Hey,
So exams are coming soon and I'm in need of a new module.
Currently I'm doing:
Core: 96%
Matrices: 100%
Networks: 80%
Number Patterns: 98%
As you can see Networks was my weakest module and I find it completely confusing, and i'm here asking you guys what you think I should take up instead. I also do Maths Methods so if that would influence your suggestion, but take into account I suck at it haha.
Thanks :)

Geometry and Trigonometry or Graphs and Relations shouldn't be too bad considering you're a Methods student. Whatever you do, talk to your teachers so that they can keep helping you out. Good luck! :)

80% isn't a bad result for Networks at all! In my opinion at this point, I wouldn't change Modules because its still a good mark. If it was a worse off result, then I would have may be suggested you change Modules.
However, to answer your Question, and as Stick said, Geometry and Trig or Graphs and Relations are the other options. If you're tossing up between the two, may be do an Exam or may be 2 exams, and just do the Geometry and Trig Module and the Graphs and Relations Module. Then see how you go afterwards, and may be pick the one that you get a higher mark on.

Graphs and Relations would be even easier to pick up than Trig. Less content, and you would have already covered more of it.

^ As long as you don't assume you know it all and then find out that you don't too late (see the final question on VCAA 2011 Exam 2). There are some things which are not covered to a great extent in the Methods course.
