Easiest module?

Generally, what do most students do well in out of all the modules?
My school's doing networks, linear and matrices, but i don't feel as confident with networks since it's completely new to me this year and something that isn't covered in methods.

I found series and sequences and graphs and relations pretty easy :)

Networks tends to be one of the harder modules.

This is a very ambiguous question, because everyone finds things different. It also depends on your mathematical and general subject background. For example, Methods students tend to do quite well in Geometry and Trigonometry, Graphs and Relations and Matrices, but might struggle initially with other modules. Accounting students might find Business-related Mathematics a breeze. Personally, out of all the modules I learned, I found Graphs and Relations to be the easiest.

For real? I found Networks to be so easy that it was hard/ eg didn't bother paying attention. Basically just counting :s

relevant. i can't do networks for the life of me. I'm not so keen on the whole inspection thing and the looming idea that there could possible be a shorter hamiltonian path lol.

My personal favorite is matrices, im not a fan of networks because of the guess/check-ness of it at times and i agree that its compleatly different from anything else.

if your looking to learn another module however i recommend trig and geometry. its essentially just formula running through year 10 sorta stuff, with just a few extra's here and there so yay. :) They do throw you an annoying question from time to time though .

If you're a strong English student as well then Business Math would also be simple enough to self teach.

The theory in Geo and trig isn't to difficult to grasp (although there is a substantial amount of it), but they can ask a lot of seperator questions on it.  I wouldn't do this without teacher resources at hand.

Since you're doing methods do 1,2 and 3. They are so easy within the 2 minutes you have for each question you can look it up in your textbook and learn the content during the exam.

exactly the reason i hate networks, i don't really like the whole trial-and-error sorta method

Thanks for everyone's replies! I might go ahead and do the geometry and trig

Networks and Matrices can be easily misinterpreted. While other modules have harder content, the questions may be more straightforward but require more formulaic thinking.

i really liked business maths, all if not most of the work is done on the calculator. downside is that you have to be very careful to answer what they are asking for.
