      Great Idea fr.
      Top 3-
      Year 2:
      1.Differentiation (Differenating trig func + Chain rule + Product rule was very fun and gave alot of marks but a pain to finish)
      2.Numerical Methods (Done this in 24 hours and its intresting)
      3.Radians (Short and Sweet)
      Year 1:
      1.Trignometric Identies and Equations (Not too short, not too long and not too easy and not too hard. The best chapter out of all)
      2.Integration (Unlike anything we've ever seen before and gave alot of marks)
      3.Binomial Expansion (One of the easiest and intresting chpaters)

      ​@@rtwodrew2 Agreed! For the record, here is how I would rank them in enjoyment and content: (haven't ranked on challenge as I think that's very, very objective, but definitely FP2 is up there for challenge!)
      Enjoyment:
      S: FP2 (groups and number theory >>>>)
      A: FM1, FS1, FP1, D2
      B: FM2 (agree there's too much centre of mass), FS2 (correlation and regression is... too boring)
      C: D1
      D:
      Volume of content (higher rankings for smaller modules):
      S: FM1, FM2

    fp1 would be A tier for me because fp1 is the module that can help with normal maths. Plus, you can use the new methods in further maths, overall I agree with the list good job!

    Im taking FM1 and D1, would you recommend swapping D1 for something else like S1? im doing computer science and physics aswell for a level

    • @BicenMaths
      @BicenMaths  6 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      I think that's a good combination! When I put D1 low down, it doesn't mean I think it is a bad module at all, just wasn't my personal preference. It's still really interesting and you can of course be very successful at it! It works well with CompSci too.

  • @igcse8777
    @igcse8777 8 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    for fm1 does it heavily build up on the a level mechanics concepts or is it just the yr 2 friction & forces topic thats needed as prior information for fm1?

    • @BicenMaths
      @BicenMaths  7 วันที่ผ่านมา

      It's just friction and forces - and I think in Chapter 2 of FM1 I have a video or two at the start of the playlist getting people up to speed on it - can be done very quickly!

    Put some respect on the further pure modules. In revising those I’m also revising the other half o further maths and revising 66% of my normal maths.😂😂😂 Matrices and calculus from there makes it seem easier when you do it in normal maths and core pure.😊

    • @DarkKittens123
      @DarkKittens123 9 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      I did D1 a few years ago and honestly it’s really bad imo. A lot of it is just memorising algorithms and plugging numbers and stuff and doing a lot of mental maths. Luckily it’s not similar to uni discrete maths at all it’s just a one off boring topic

  • @khan99ish
    @khan99ish 9 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

    FM1 and FM2 I HIGHLY disagree with only because I never understood mechanics in general however FS1 and currently studying FS2 are amazing I’m definitely more of a statistician rather than a mechanic when it comes to maths

    • @BicenMaths
      @BicenMaths  9 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      I know the reason I love mechanics so much… I did loads of the mechanics modules when I was 18 (back when there were 5 mechanics modules, I think I did them all?) and was taught really well, and it’s just stuck with me - when I would prepare to teach something in mechanics as a teacher, the content just flooded back so quickly - which I think is a sign of being well taught! If it’s taught badly though, it’s really, really tough!
      So pleased that you’re enjoying stats so far - which chapter are you currently working on? Good to hear from you, keep me updated!

      You’re at the hard part, but once you figure out which distribution to use when, you’ll be set! It’s so interesting, I loved learning how we can make predictions from sampling a population. Let me know if you ever need anything!

    hi sir ! which combination for option modules do you think is the most difficult and the easiest ?

    • @BicenMaths
      @BicenMaths  7 วันที่ผ่านมา

      It really does depend on your individual preferences, but if you look at the document that I have linked in the description, you'll see a summary that will help you to think about what is most important to you - whether the module is lots of content, relies on other knowledge, etc. For me personally, I think a classic combo that I usually recommend is FS1 and FM1 - but I know many others would also suggest FP1 too, I just think it has a lot more content in it than other modules! I'd say the hardest is probably getting one of the 2 modules involved... but then again, the more you do of something, the easier it gets! As you can see, there isn't really an answer to your question, as I keep changing my mind whilst writing this comment haha

      Some extra time across the board is an excellent idea - if the questions are hard/problem solving, then more time actually allows people to think, rather than rush and try and do something they've seen before!
