MU123 - TMA04 finished

Visible to anyone in the world

I've now finished the final TMA on the module.  Massive relief to have completed that and to be honest it wasn't that bad, enjoyed the trigonometry side of it and the rest was fine.

Still have units 13 and 14 to go now before I can move onto MST124 but with the course website opening in 4 days and the course starting in 20 days I'm well on track to have this module completed before starting MST124.

I've noticed that the end of module exam on MST124 is on the day I get back from my wedding/honeymoon in Greece.  I am pretty keen to try and get this moved if possible as revising and reading maths books on my honeymoon could go see me divorced quicker than Britney Spears!!  Once the module site opens in 4 days I will post a question on the forums and see what my options are.

MU123 - Unit 11 complete. TMA04 started.

Visible to anyone in the world

I've now completed Unit 11 as well.  Unit 11 is a progression from unit 4 and is all about statistics and how the information can be interpreted and displayed graphically.  As with unit 4 I really enjoyed this unit, especially the case study which investigates whether extra sensory perception is real.  It really gets you thinking about how an investigation like this should be carried out.

The unit seemed much shorter than the others but not sure if that is just because I enjoyed working through it or whether it is actually quite a short unit. 

I've started work on the final TMA, TMA04 now as well.  Decided to complete each relevant section before moving onto the next unit for this TMA, I've done this for unit 10 already and will make a start on the questions aimed at unit 11 before moving onto the next unit.

Unit 12 is onto trigonometry which I've been eager to get started on since the course began.

Looking at the MST124 module website, I should be getting things through in the post early in the new year and the module is due to open towards the end of January.  My plan to have everything I can completed before MST124 opens looks to be on track just about. 

I should be able to move onto MST124 almost as soon as it opens and I will be left with 2 iCMAs to complete and the EMA as they all start after the MST124 opening date.
