This was one of the most enjoyable weeks I’ve had working through KA so far. I finished the unit Vectors on Thursday and was able to get ~20% of the way through the following unit Matrices. Even though I wish I’d gotten further into Matrices, I was happy with my progress this week because 1) I still had to… Read More Week 76 – Feb. 8th to Feb. 14th

I was close to reaching my goal for this week which was to get 50% of the way through the unit Vectors but came up a bit short. I finished reviewing the unit Trigonometry on Thursday and got 40% of the way through Vectors by the end of Saturday. Working through the remaining two sections in Trigonometry, which… Read More Week 75 – Feb. 1st to Feb. 7th

I was pretty happy with how this week went. I finished the unit Composite Functions on Wednesday and got halfway through Trigonometry before the week ended. As I hoped, I was able to make a lot more sense of trig this week than I was able to when I first learned it. It did take me a bit of… Read More Week 74 – Jan. 25th to Jan. 31st

This week was pretty typical. I didn’t get as far as I hoped I would but feel good about my effort having spent ~6.5-7 hours on KA. I finished the unit Polynomials on Friday and got through a few videos in the first section of Composite Functions on Saturday. I spent most of this week solving equations which was… Read More Week 73 – Jan. 18th to Jan. 24th

I made about as much progress this week as I have every week since I began Precalculus, i.e. didn’t get too far. Just like every other week, I once again feel like I got a lot of really good work done but it’s taking me longer than I anticipated and longer than I’d like it to.… Read More Week 72 – Jan. 11th to Jan. 17th

UGH!! For the third week in a row, I once again didn’t get through the unit Complex Numbers. 🙁 BUT, apart from that, I was happy with how my week went. I now feel like I have a solid understanding of the different forms of complex numbers (except for exponential form which I’ll explain why) and how to… Read More Week 71 – Jan. 4th to Jan. 10th

Although I didn’t get as far as I wanted to this week, I was happy with the amount of work I completed and, even better, actually enjoyed doing it (loosely speaking). I began this week halfway through the unit Complex Numbers and spent the entire week using trigonometry to find the coordinates of complex numbers on the… Read More Week 70 – Dec. 28th to Jan. 3rd

Well, so far calculus is much more enjoyable to learn than statistics. I spent the entire week working on the unit Complex Numbers and only got halfway through but, even still, got through a lot of material. The majority of my time was spent working through algebraic equations which I found more compelling than nearly everything I… Read More Week 69 – Dec. 21st to Dec. 27th

I’m happy to say I’m officially moving on from statistics. I did well enough on the course challenge this week, scoring a 26/30 (but it really should have been 28/30), to feel good about going forward to calculus. The final two units of the course, Prepare for the 2020 AP Statistics Exam and AP Statistics Standards Mappings, only… Read More Week 68 – Dec. 14th to Dec. 20th

Once again, I could some up this week’s progress simply with, “it was fine”.  I got through 3 units which sounds pretty good but consider there were no exercises that needed to be done, only each unit’s unit test, it wasn’t that great. To give myself some credit though, the unit tests weren’t exactly easy, and… Read More Week 67 – Dec. 6th to Dec. 13th
