Super keen tbh. Now that I've got tickets for Sydney I'll probably end up selling my Boxing Day ones as it'll just be too costly in terms of getting my way to Melbourne and getting time off work (assuming I find a summer job). If that's the case, it'll actually be my first time going to an international cricket game. Saw NSW - England last time they were here, and one or two domestic games, but that's all I've ever seen live.

It'll be quite an experience having the entire SCG packed to the rafters for what will probably be the first time. The atmosphere is always brilliant so I can't wait.

It's really an awesome place to watch cricket. The view from the Noble or bradman stand is just amazing

Bought a bicycle today. It'll come tomorrow noon. I haven't cycled for 6+ years and am looking forward to it.

That Mechanics 1 is a nightmarish unit (especially projectiles - I have to do 2 + 3 as well). And that I can not bloody wait to start Further Pure One on Monday.

Also wondering why I took probably the 4 hardest A-levels. Actually, I do know but, still, it's a heck of a lot of work.

Is that A Levels?

M1 is pretty good, M2 is fun as well, I haven't done M3, but it's meant to be pretty hard. What are you finding hard?

Think you're overplaying Further Maths tbh, yeah it's tough but it can't be that tough if a lot of schools can offer it as an "extra" and teach it in 2 hours a week.

It's mostly the projectiles stuff, especially with the angles. (e.g. "a cricketer hits on the ball on the half-volley. The ball travels to a fielder 100m away and leaves the ground at an angle of 45 degrees to the orizontal. Work out the initial speed of the ball"). That type of stuff.

And yeah, it's AS-Level Further Maths.

Well, most of M1 I'm pretty reasonable at to (the forces stuff, SUVAT, even vectors are not so challenging that I can't get past it with effort). It's just projectiles that I can't get my head around, really.

I have the same problem in physics also (although the forces stuff is easier, obvs.)

I've never done M1 and my school don't do it for Further either, so I wouldn't know.

What do you take again? Maths, Further, Physics and...

History. I'm enjoying it the most at the minute ITBT. Although I like all of my lessons.

Although this is aided by not doing General Studies. :P

And Marcuss, I had a look at FP1 earlier today (starting Monday, as we've already finished Mech 1) and it does look a little mrore friendly TBF.

Ahh, History ftw. Not sure I'd agree they're the 4 hardest A Levels, but it's subjective I guess.

I reckon the average student would probably give them as the 4 hardest A-levels. I wouldn't necessarily agree either (I'd find something like Textiles or Art waaaaaaaaay harder than than any of them), but that was more my point. I just didn't express it very well.

Yeah, and as I said, I'd disagree
