Hellooo! 👋🏼 My name is Harry Surplus! I am a 19 year old Mathematics student at The University of Manchester. I post study videos, revision vlogs and university advice here on my channel.
👨🏻🏫 I TEACH A LEVEL MATHS! Check out my other RU-vid channel 'MathsWithHarry' if you are studying A Level Maths.
🎙I HAVE A PODCAST! Listen to 'Harry's Strictly Podcast' on Spotify, Apple, or Google NOW if you are a big 'Strictly Come Dancing' lover. ✨
I have no say I never needed the Integration or Differentiation Feature in the University at all. Since whenever you do this, the teachers wants to see how you did it and you are forced to do it symbolically by Hand and no approved calculator can do this. But nethertheless the Fx991DE X is still One of the best approved calculators and I used it For the whole Bachelor and Master.
When it comes to buying a calculator, in my experience the key deciding factor is to ask your teacher “What calculator will you be using in class to demonstrate, when you demonstrate checking using a calculator ?” then buy that. Simple as that. In class you want to be learning the maths and following along, not trying to work out how to do on your calculator what the teacher just did on theirs, whilst they’ve moved on to the next topic. You want to only have to remember the key strokes for one calculator (the one you and the teacher use) not two (the one the teacher just demonstrated on and the one you have). For the same reason, if you can lobby the school authorities to standardise on one make and model of calculator for all maths and numerate science subjects and to try to get a bulk deal with a supplier. This is particularly good where you will be doing GCSE and A-Level at the same institution so the calculator you get might be a bit over powered for GCSE but you save on buying a new one for A-Level and having to learn a new set of key strokes to do the stuff that carries over from one to the other. It also means the institution can buy in bigger bulk and get a better deal. Better a calculator that will last you 4 years (something like the CG50 would probably see you through university as well, so that’s 7+ years) than have to keep buying new ones because you cheaped out on the first one. It is NEVER cheaper to try to save money by buying the minimum that will suffice. Also, spend the extra few quid on the stronger case, look after what you bought.
Hey can you advise on which is a good combination (edexcel) Maths Further maths Physics Computer science Or Maths Further Maths Physics Applied ict I’m hoping to continue to get a CS degree
how about CAS? (that the most expensive Texas-Instruments & HP Calculators have got) Which is: The school-serious & important "high-end feature", to solve equations! ... Is there an app/program for this?
Thanks for explaining this, I'm 47 and gave up on maths aged 25 and a late developer. I get everything you say to a point, but what is the point of attempting a question if there isn't going to be an outcome of benifit at the end. At GCSE level, the subjects are modestly difficult to grasp as a new student, but most of the knowledge can be applied in real life, even algebra. I'm glad you explained the logic of not all A level questions have sequence of logical explanation and the workings out of paper. If someone explained that concept properly then I mat have continued with studying maths
Our teacher in the 1st grade of high school (9th grade) just told us all to get the fx 991 ex so we would be ready for the "matura" exam at the end of 4th grade (12th grade) because that's the best calculator allowed in that examination. It is definitely a very awesome calculator gotta say.
i got a graphing calculator on discount from my school and i'm starting the a level in september (it was their reccomendation to get one of the graphics ones instead)
Right now I am doing GCSE stats and im currently getting high grade 6 in my mocks would this grade help me alot in A level or will i have to learn some completely new things all together?
hey, the A level course runs over two years, so AS level is the topics you learn in the first year, whereas A level is what you learn in the second year. Usually people use the term ‘A level’ more as they refer to the topics you learn over the two years :)
thank you so mych for making this video like i was panicking and my mind was pacing looking at a question cause it was so hard and I was like "God how do i do this, I need help!" So i searched up on youtube your video came and I feel so much peaceful and feel like I can actually have another go at it I may not 100% get it but I can learn it. Thanks this helped ALOT!
Hello Harry, have you tried converting matrices done in linear algebra using the math converter. I can't seem to get that function to convert, the converted text is completely different and not what I wrote on notability. Kindly advise. Cheers
Anyone who knows how to get a ti 108? They are missing.. the only ones are priced like 25 40 50 €. I found some, but completely unsure about the generation, and they are all with crazy shipping costs. I have oredered from foreign countries yet, and neve had to pay 20 € of taxes... thanks to all.
Let's say we have to accommodate one new guest. To do this, each existing customer moves to a higher room number by 1. Then there has to be an empty room in the end where the last existing customer can move into. So the infinite hotel does have one empty room already?!
Special devices for special exams is just insane. Think about what you daily need, for everything else you take a computer, maybe an app for your smartphone. The only reason for any other decision is really "it's not allowed in school".
PLEASE ANYONE HELP! I have had the fx-991 PLUS(the gray calculator) for the past 5 years and it was good, but I started my degree last year, and I want to buy graphic one at the cost of 70$ top! Please help. I want calculator that can solve(like mine) quadratic equations(Mode 5-3). Also, I want calculator that can draw graphs for example: y=4x+2 or y^2=2x-4. Furthermore, I want a calculator that can integrate and differentiate(if there is one) PLEASE HELP! THANKS IN ADVANCE!
man wat the hell yall need graphic calculator for literally went through engineering math with a freakin ms570, complex and fourier analysis? went through whole vector thing with electromagnetism too... yeah... and like, the university doesnt care, and doesnt allow anything better either been using same one since highschool graphing calculator is not a thing here in this country probably a uk thing
@@flixemerson4191 my school doesn’t do it and I also didn’t do the best at it as I was dumb and didn’t revise it at all at gcse. My school does offer a btec in IT but i can’t do further maths if I pick jt
@@QuandaleRizzler32 ok fair, i would say just do some coding and learn about computer science at home through sixth form so you wont be so behind when you get to uni
The fx-CG50 is really poor quality, screen dreadful it’s colour is washed out looking and red looks pinkish and you end up jumping around all over the dam place to do anything worthwhile, going from app to app, to switch from hex bin to floating point calculations And multiple and division it uses children x symbol we’re one would expect to use • or * as well as / for division HP Prime a far superior calculator, easy to type in programs and PPL quite powerful as well as able to graph do base calculation in hex bin and floating point all in one place without jumping all over the place in different apps like the CASIO, on the prime you get to stay in one place and do it all
Hi Harry love your videos ! I have a question for you. I studied gcse maths in 2016. Now, because of the career path I want to go down I need a level maths. I hardly remember anything from gcse maths and I want to start my a level maths this year. What’s the best way for me learn the gcse maths again as well as get ready for a level maths ? Thankyou
I'm 30 and considering going back to school and starting maths from scratch, you've saved me tons of wasted effort in terms of planning and organization. Thank you!
