After ~ 6 weeks, this week I FINALLY made it through that trig substitution section. 🥵 In fact, I actually got 4/4 on the exercise 3 times but wanted to make sure I knew what I was doing which is why I did it multiple times. Getting through this section has been the hardest thing I’ve thing… Read More Week 126 – Jan. 24th to Jan. 30th

(Disclaimer: This was a very frustrating week and so I swear a lot in this post. In other posts I’ve written, I’ll often write a first draft which might include swear words but I’ll edit them out before I post it. I’ve decided to leave them in this week because 1) it paints a more… Read More Week 125 – Jan. 17th to Jan. 23rd

I only made it through 2 articles and 1 exercise this week from the unit Integration by Parts, but, just like last week, I’m actually fairly happy with the progress I made and what I was able to learn. I got a much stronger feel for how to use the integration by parts technique and came… Read More Week 124 – Jan. 10th to Jan. 16th

For the first time in what feels like forever, I’m actually happy with the progress I made this week on KA. It took me three days but I finally got through the exercise in the section Trigonometric Substitution and was able to wrap my head around how this particular type of trig substitution works (with one frustrating… Read More Week 123 – Jan. 3rd to Jan. 9th

I’m starting to feel more comfortable with trigonometric identities but at the same time still feel like I have a long way to go before I fully understand them. As I mentioned at the end of my last post, this week I took a break from the unit Integrals and worked through a section in the unit Integration… Read More Week 122 – Dec. 27th to Jan. 2nd

In the 121 weeks I’ve been working through KA, I’ve never gone through a week like this one. I got my ass handed to me this week trying to get through the last exercise of Integrals and pretty much made 0 progress towards getting through the exercise… Let me give you an analogy of what happened…  I… Read More Week 121 – Dec. 20th to Dec. 26th

I think this is the millionth time that I’ve started a blog by saying this, but I had another tough week this week and didn’t make it very far through KA. As usual, it wasn’t due to a lack of effort! I wrote out 36 pages of notes but a lot of my time was… Read More Week 120 – Dec. 13th to Dec. 19th

I didn’t get too far this week on KA. I got through 4 exercises and 2 videos but unfortunately that was it. I started the week working on the first of three exercises in the section Integrating with U-Substitution and easily finished the first 2 exercises in about 15 minutes. The third exercise then took me about… Read More Week 119 – Dec. 6th to Dec. 12th

Once again, I didn’t get very far through KA this week. I spent the entire week working through 1 section of the unit Integrals called Integrating With U-Substitution. In my defence, the section was pretty big having 11 videos and 3 articles in it. Even though I didn’t get very far, I did enjoy learning about u-substitution which… Read More Week 118 – Nov. 29th to Dec. 5th

I’m a bit disappointed with how my week went this week. I think I just made it to 5 hours of studying calculus in total but it was close. I felt a bit out of my depth this week with what I was working through which I’m guessing is part of the reason why I… Read More Week 117 – Nov. 22nd to Nov. 28th
