Hey, I'm currently in 6th year and after browsing through a few courses, TP is the one that stands out the most.

Hey, I'm currently in 6th year and after browsing through a few courses, TP is the one that stands out the most. I do honours maths and physics now in school, but I'm worried that I might not be good enough at maths to do TP in college?
I average a B3 in most my tests, but I'm positive I can do better with more work.
I also average an A1 in physics.

How difficult is the maths in the TP course? Did any of you find it difficult to keep up with it?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks

Just ask yourself this; do you enjoy doing maths for the sake of maths?

I do really enjoy doing maths, Maybe Memories it's by far the class that I enjoy most in school, but I just find that I don't perform as well in tests as I do in class and homework! Hopefully more preparation for the LC will help me with the tests aspect though!
