should i make my further notebook throughout the year, or in class?

[molllz]

should i start writing the notes my teacher gives us for further or just do it like a month before the exam?

what u recommend?

a month before the exam.
You relearn everything doing it this way...

if you do matrices it'll help with refreshing the procedures and question interpretation  a lot.

It depends...
When I did further, my 'relearning' was done through past exam papers. Whenever I couldn't do a question, I would go back to the textbook and revise that part. That way, I never revised stuff I already knew how to do well.
But I guess it wouldn't hurt to write up the notes...
Still, past exam papers are the most valuable revision you could do...!

TBH everyone's going to have a different opinion/method. Personally, I did it just before the exam, I find that I understand maths better when I review it after I've learnt it because I can see the bigger picture and some things just click.

For me, I did it throughout the year, basically using it to revise for SACS. It means that when you are stressed at the end of the year with everything piling up, you already have it done and don't need to worry about it. You can focus on more important things at the end of the year (practice exams e.t.c).

EDIT: Agree with funkyducky, you've got to find what works for you.

Throughout the year write down things you struggle with, then after you finish the course, do a few exams, write more things down.
Stress.
Collate things you don't like into note book
Do more exams.

During the year, in class make your summary book on binder paper. This way you can add in/take out papers you need or don't need at the end of the year. This way at the end of the year, you already have your notes made and can just do practice exams.

Another thing I found extremely useful was to make a single summary page for core and your three moduals before each sac and then when binding you summary book you an place these at the front. Theses summary pages could contain certain elements you forget/struggle with and important formulas.

The key with further maths is to do many, many, many practice exams. I ended up doing 50 although u would have liked to have done 60 had I had enough provide or available to me.

By creating a summary book throughout the year, when it comes time to study you would have already done the formalities and have time to refine your skills. It is a waste of time re-writing notes you already have in maths. Trust me.
