Title: HELP, 2013 FURTHER/METHODS STUDENTS
Post by: ETTH96 on January 19, 2014, 09:17:38 pm
Hey guys, I'm going to be completing units 3/4 Further and Methods this year, and I was wondering if anybody could give me tips on writing a Rules book throughout the year in preparation for the exam.. What should I include and what shouldn't I include? Any tips would be greatly appreciated! Thanks guys!!

Pretty much everything I want to say in constructing a bound reference for further maths, Stick has mentioned in this thread. :)

Could you link me where it says that please? I've already started -.-

Your bound reference must not include:
• pages or parts of pages that can be detached from the
bound reference during the examination
So with perforated books, you have pages which can be detached from your bound reference and going by what VCAA have stated in this document, you won't be allowed to bring in books with perforated edges.

Hope that helps!

Instead of making a new book, I'm just tearing out each of the pages and putting them in a plastic pocket.. Then at the end of the year, I'll get them all bound together @ OfficeWorks.. Just an idea :p

Don't forget to seal the top part of each plastic pocket, you don't want the pages falling out :P
