further mathematics is meant for a man with big brain (unfortuantely, not me)

After a week at taylor's, i can adapt the lifestyle here. Wake up at 5.30am, lesson starts at 8am, ends at 3 or 4pm, bus come at 4-5pm, reach casa subang at 5-6pm, take dinner at 6.30pm, do homework from 8pm-10/11pm and sleep after that. Kind of rigid and compact my schedule here, but at last my brain starts to work and those rusts that stick at my brain and hands can finally scratched off.



Who i gonna thank for making such a miracle changes to my brain? Surely is FURTHER MATHEMATICS!!! Let me tell you how is this FM level compared to other pre-u program mathematics. For SAM students, u all very lucky. According to my FM2(mechanics) lecturer, Mr Wong said: SAM specialist mathematics is easier than A-level PURE MATHEMATICS (pure maths is another maths that is 100 times easier than FM). Amazed? Shocked? Taken aback? lol.....



How hard is this FM? Our first chapter that i am learning now, that is Projectile (according to Mr Wong, projectile is the easiest chapter in FM =.=) is a very new experience to me. It is a combination of Physic and Add Math, that's mean i have to derive new formula from formulae that we have learnt in this 2 subjects. For example, who still remember all those trigonometry formula? sin? cos? tan? cosec? sin square cos square equal to 1???? These are the basics for us. It is a norm that we use this formula while we completing a question. Every question needs at least a page of foolscap paper to fitted all the answer inside. Can u imagine putting all these cos...sin...tan.... into u=vcos*-1/2 gtxt??? Walau, no wonder when i told all my seniors that i am taking FM, they showed a weird, unbeliavable yet respectful response to me. Haha, thanks!!!



Let me explain what FM is about. There are 2 papers. Paper 1 is about algebra, summing addition, sigma notation.......while Paper 2 is about mechanics, statistics, calculus.....Paper 1 is considered more easy but although even i can memorise all the formulae in Paper 1, there is quite sophisticated and complicated when want to resolve a problem.



Still can't believe how high level is it? Tell u a fact. FM shall be taken by Chemical Engineering Degree student in their first year. That's mean i am learning things that i going to learn it 2 years later. Haha! And my lecturer, Mr Wong needed 20 minutes to resolve a sub-question on the whiteboard. It is not an exceptional for me to sitting infront the table for a single FM question.

Let me intruduce to you again my new interesting game, FM!!! Ok, gtg now. My bus is coming. Bye!!
