Do you guys know any good guides out there for methods or something with challenging questions that I can work with? Thanks much!

The AN methods notes are pretty decent for understanding the theory behind the math. Also, when marking VCAA exams, go through Itutes solutions as well, his solutions sometimes show things that VCAA's haven't. Don't touch his papers unless you're getting like 70/80+ in all other companies.

Checkpoints is quite good for familiarising yourself with common VCAA questions. If you are looking for a challenge I would recommend Exampro. The questions are slightly harder and the detailed solutions give you a strong understanding of the maths behind them. This helps at the end of the year when you do your exam because odds are you won't have seen one or two of the questions before and having a good understanding really helps. Good luck!

Derrick Ha was amazing for me. My bro had an old edition of his book and i used it when i did methods 3/4. It was brilliant. I could learn the course without any other assistance which left me in complete control of my learning - which is where you want to be in VCE and especially with methods.
