Math Methods 的final exam以它逐年遞增的考試難度和頗具挑戰(zhàn)的 Exam 2大題,讓很多同學覺得自己選的其實是一門高數(shù)。在前幾年的試卷里，Tasmania Jones 已然讓大家叫苦連天，它對各個知識點高度的綜合性以及大篇幅的文字更是讓很多中國留學生考到懷疑人生…

　　相對于 Exam 1的套路滿滿，要想在2小時之內(nèi)正確做完 Exam 2里堆砌的20道選擇題和4道大題，如果沒有針對的復習和考試技巧可以說是不可能完成的任務。那么我們怎么來有的放矢地解決這些大BOSS呢? 今天小編就為大家分享一些成功心得~

　　The increasing difficulty of Math Methods in recent years, along with its 2 application questions in the intensive Exam 2 have been far too challenging to most students. Tasmania Jones, the legendary figure in past couple of exams has now gone, but we never expect the whole exam is getting any easier… Compared with the relatively easy and stereotype Exam 1 , Exam 2 can not be done well without pinpoint revision and exam techniques. Today, I would like to share some really useful revision strategies and exam tips.

　　沖刺學習計劃 Final Review before VCE

　　考試前的最后一個半月是總復習的黃金時間，我們應該做好下面的細節(jié)：

　　a. 嚴格按照exam instructions的要求，平均每周做2到3份考題。

　　b. 將不會的題歸類、分析、總結方法，然后寫到exam notes里。

　　c. 總結和記憶試卷里的關鍵難詞，特別是2卷大題。

　　d. 在考試前的1到2周，應該回顧這些卷子，第二遍的復習往往比只復習一遍來的印象深刻的多。

　　As the last one and a half months is prime time for VCE prepation, students need to make sure details below are fully prepared.

　　a. Follow the exam instructions strictly. Complete 2-3 test papers per week.

　　b. Classify, analyse and summarise difficult questions and take notes of them.

　　c. Summarise and memorise the key words, especially those in Exam 2.

　　d. Review those test papers 1-2 weeks before the final exam.

　　關注重點題型

　　Questions you need focus on

　　1. Function 大題。 出現(xiàn)頻率最高的是 inverse function , circular function 和與calculus相關的gradient, maximum values, area。

　　2. Calculus 大題。 普遍的問題是找最大最小值，算面積。最難點在于找到可以derive的target function。換句話說，如果要找到兩個curve 的最短垂直距離，這個距離公式應該怎么寫?

　　3. Probability大題.。最難的是binomial , normal distribution和 sampling statistic的綜合題. 很多同學不能判斷什么時候是 binomial event, 以及如何計算與 sample proportion 相關的概率題。

　　a. Function Questions. The highest frequent questions are inverse function, circular function and calculus associated with the gradient, maximum values, area.

　　b. Calculus Questions. The most common problem is to find the maximum and minimum value, and to calculate size. The most difficult point is to find the derive target function. In other words, if you want to find the shortest vertical distance of the two curves, what is the formula to calculate the distance?

　　c. Probability Question. The most difficult questions are binomial, normal distribution and sampling statistic comprehensive questions. Not many students determine whether it is a binomial event for a situation, and how to calculate the probability related to sample questions.

　　重要考試技巧 Important Exam Techniques

　　1.合理的分配時間

　　在 Exam 2里首先做選擇題，并且做到平均每道選擇題不超過一分半鐘。

　　2.針對性的讀題，不要糾結不認識單詞的意思

　　在剩下的1個半小時里，先做自己更有把握的大題，對于文字量大的描述題，應該直接從關鍵字下手，盡快的分辨出所考題型。

　　3. 注意題目之間的聯(lián)系

　　每道大題會分成幾個部分，每部分的小題之間一般都是有聯(lián)系的.我們通?？梢杂们懊娴慕Y果來做下一問.當你沒有頭緒時，請這樣做。

　　4. 關于分值

　　1分的題只寫最后答案就可以;兩分以上的一定要寫步驟才能得滿分。

　　Time Management

　　Make sure you can averagely finish each multiple choice question within one minute.

　　Read questions carefully. Don't waste your time on difficult words.

　　Pay attention to the connection of each question. Each big question has several questions, so you could find some connections and clues from them.

　　About marks

　　Only write result for questions marked 1 while write results and solutions for questions marked 2, otherwise you cannot have full marks.
