We are finishing chapter 6. So far it is pretty easy.

I'm doing graphs at the moment! We're doing circles and hyperbolas :)

Are you working ahead of the class?

Wow! Your class is really ahead!

Our class is progressing normally. I plan to work ahead though  8) Your class is a little bit behind relative to our school.

Not necessarily. Rates of change is part of Unit 1, so some schools will teach the basic ideas of rates of change and differentiating power functions, and then come back to applications later on (stationary points, tangents, max/min problems, antidiff, etc.)

Bruh i'm struggling so much, especially now with remote learning.

I'm supposed to be up to the end of chapter 5 but I have still have like a 1/4 of chapter 3, haven't even started chapter 4 and barley scraping by in chapter 5. My teacher says I need to finish all of this by Tuesday so i guess i'm not going to have a weekend if want any chance of finishing it all. I'm asking my friend from a grammar school for his notes and relying on Khan Academy. Does anyone know of any youtube resources that are specific to Math Methods? Khan is amazing but sometimes i struggle to find videos relating to what the questions are asking.

I'm an atheist but god help me.

Check out Worm's Maths Academy - it's probably the best VCE-specific resource on YouTube. They have many Khan-academy style videos that covers methods 1/2 topics.

If you are using the TI-Nspire, try also taking a look at TI Australia which specifically teaches you tips and tricks regarding the CAS.

There is also this old YouTube channel called ScrewMathsMethods which has some highly entertaining and educational videos, but about half of them aren't relevant to the study design anymore.

What did you find difficult?

Figuring out the equations of any polynomials above quadratics, and drawing them too

As someone else said, WMA is good, as well as https://mathsmethods.com.au/
