lol. I tend to only be able to draw darker things.... the only down side to charcoal.
I love maths though, I've always been good at it, (odd i know, i can draw and write... but still excel in maths), i do 3 unit maths, as in an extra 2 hours of maths a week and it's way harder, and i was alright with it at the beginning of the year, but so much has happened over the past few months i'm starting to slip.

You're obviously crazy, lol. (Just kidding) I think a lot of the time we seem to put a mental block on ourselves which stop us from being good at maths. Maths is like the subject everyone thinks is so hard, so we all end up believiing that it's too hard for us. I really am only average at best with maths though, but I can still say I passed 7th form maths  |

lol. I reckon that's true, I always show my friends how it can be applied to real life... no matter how obscure. haha.
Did better than most of the people in my year. lol.

Yeah, it is useful. I guess that is why it is compulsory.
Do you use graphics calculators? They saved my life when I had to do maths with stats.

We only just got some at school, and we can only use them during class, general can use them during tests, but they don't get taught how to use them.
Makes sense ey?

That's weird. At my school they specifically teach the class for them now. It helps with some things, but I think sometimes it is hard breaking away from all the theory to just the calculators.
The great thing about them was never having to draw graphs again, though some of the stuff I did in 7th form maths was still hard. I don't really remember much of the work I did now, but I remember there was this one section in probability and I just could not get the hang of it and I would never remember how to do it on the calculator, lol. (I failed that section. Got 0%, lol)

lol. Niice. We only got something like 30 calculators, so only the top 30 from mathematics (advanced maths) and the extension class are taught how to use them. Probability was easy enough... Just sucks not doing it for about a term, then getting tested on it..  |

Not really, they are too expensive for everyone to buy, public school and all. *Shrug*

Yeah, mine was like $85 but if I didn't get it I would have failed my 7th form maths class, (and probably 6th form maths too, lol)

Are we gonna bother with an icon now, lol? I don't really mind to be honest because I probably won't use it anyway, but if anyone else wants to set up an icon for everyone to use who want to (for it won't be compulsory) you can.

I don't think I could be bothered... The Dark Order have it easy, there already was one, and it wouldn't make much sense making one now, seeing as there wasn't even one in the book, *shrug* I say leave it be. Unless someone can be bothered of course. |
