Mathsonline is an excellent resource. Coupled with the 5.3 textbook a well motivated student(myself) could catch up. The difference between 5.2 and 5.3(advance) is not too much. The real challenge and difference between a 5.3 and 5.2 student in my opinion is study and attitude A tutor is not...

That honestly sounds pretty bad. I see where you are coming from but getting credentials from a privately run coaching college would be a bad for students with poor parents. I think the schools should let you do whatever subject you want and let you suffer the consequnces if you fail to keep up.

I am definitely not doubting what my teachers are saying. They have given me many warnings about doing Advance and Extension and I take them all to heart. My main problem is that only the students that are doing extension get advance. Some students who have tried really hard ever since the...

I think I kissed my own ass a little too far. I am still doing the mathsonline task for it and will read the textbook a little later. Currently My circle geometry is little more than a few basic circle geometry rules. You are probably right though

They teachers are acting as if the classes have been set

I disagree. Advance topics are more similar to 5.2 than 5.3. I am in 5.2 and I have learned all of the advance material and am now working on the maths extension material. I am doing circle geometry and it isn't that hard. Since I am a new user I can't send links but the education standard nsw...

I personally disagree with you comment. I personally think it is unfair to put pressure on 12-14 year olds to decide what careers they want to go to. You are right about it being to late for them. They were given 5.3 material to study on at the beginning of the year to see if they could get into...

I got the best grades(96) in that class so I am being allowed to do math extension and advanced. I was more asking for the other people in my class. They seemed pretty crushed that they could not do advanced

Hey guys. I am currently in 5.2 and am being allowed to do extension since there is space in that class. Another friend of mine who I convinced to do extension is also doing extension. Anyway, many people in my 5.2 class wanted to do advanced but not extension. Suddenly the teacher announced...
