Why is Maths Methods so hard?
1. Maths Methods is one of the most difficult subjects...
Maths Methods is basically one of the hardest subjects that you can do. It's not as time intensive as like art subjects and that sort of thing, but it does involve a lot of work in order to get a good score.
2. Don't pick it because it get's "Marked Up"
Some people think that you should do Methods because it gets marked up and pick subjects which get marked up. It doesn't really make a lot of sense. Methods gets marked up simply because it is difficult. If you will perform better in another subject that you enjoy, you will probably get a better score in that subject unless you spend A LOT of time on Methods.
3. Maths Methods Exam harder than Specialist Maths?
There have been a lot of years where the Maths Methods exam has been harder than the Specialist Maths exam. This is because although the content in Specialist Maths is more advanced, the actual exam questions in Maths Methods are sometimes harder.
