I had to take this test right when I joined advanced math. I didn't learn all the material I was tested on, so I got an approaching. While this was to be expected, I was a little disappointed because this was my first approaching this year. Because of this little setback, I chose to learn the material in class. Now, I know how to to the material I didn't before, and even though I got an approaching on the test, I'm well prepared for the next unit and whatever it has to throw at me. Something that I will work on for next final is to show my work on my test because I got a lot of questions wrong for that reason. 

Almost as soon as I started advanced math, we started learning about quadratic functions. We were asked to make a slideshow based on the prompt we were given. I chose to be with my friend Olive. We chose the rocket simulation, and we got to work. However, I couldn't present when we were supposed to because of a swim meet in Phoenix, so we had to present the following Monday. I got a Meets-, and I will try to get an exceeds or meets+ next time. 

This unit was about quadratics, or a type of polynomial equation where the equation used is Ax^2 +Bx+C. In this unit, we learned all sorts of ways to solve quadratic equations, from completing the square to factoring to the quadratic formula. I was really nervous for this final because I failed the last final because I got an approaching. However, I had no reason to be worried because I got a meets on my test, and I'm so proud of myself because I worked so hard. I answered some questions about my test from my teacher on a google doc, and here is that doc. 

This test was about the volume of shapes such as cubes, cones, and cylinders, and finding unknown measures of angles using the midsegment theorum, a line segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and is exactly half the length of that third side. I am so proud of myself because this test was the first one that I've gotten an exceeds on in advanced math. I got 39/42 questions correct, resulting in that exceeds. Because this was an open note test, we were able to use any hand written notes we made prior to the test to help us. I think this helped because I forgot many of the formulas needed to solve for the volumes of shapes, and my notes helped me to remember. I finished my Delta math geometry review after the test because I had a lot of other homework to do, and I actually don't think it would have helped that much to do it before because everything on it I already knew and all of the equations I needed to remember were on my notes. These questions were pulled directly from the math 2 final, and I will remember how to do them very easily because I have photographic memory. Overall, I'm very proud of myself and I hope my next test has the same outcome as this one.
