18.
P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6
M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6
S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6

The lower set did D1 and D2 instead of M5 and M6. (That is, if they did 18 modules at all, some were dropped to double maths instead).

M1 and M2 are quite possibly the easiest exams I've ever had to do. If I remember, I got 100s in M1, M2, S1 and P1. (Really should have got 100s in P1, P2, S2 and S3 as well)

Honors Pre-Calc.

I'm not done with it yet, but it is already the hardest I've ever taken, mostly because I don't like math and am not particularly good at it.

LoL. Good one, Soly!

For me: 'Call for Fire'; an Army course to teach infantry guys to call for artillery fire on a position not their own. They gave you a plastic thing called a 'whiz wheel' that I (a highschool dropout at the time) could never make sense of, to supposedly help you decide distance, declination and armament - I think (Redleg could probably straighten me out on that). That whiz-wheel thingee got pretty banged up in the mud and various bodily fluids that happen upon it during combat, and even combat simulations in Army schools.

Then there was the litany of the call itself. You were supposed to follow the prescribed format, and have all your ducks in order (like 10-digit grid coordinates) before you call. Thank gods for the forebearance of actual artillerymen on the other end of a real call; coaching idiots like me, so they understood where I was, and where the bad guys were. And which to throw heat at.

But for training, they had no patience. It took 4 no-go's before I got it.

'Course it doesn't compare to chem or physics (huge holes in my education). I admire your achievements, fellas.

Ancient greek composition. Gah.

TA what are you doing back here?? this is where i hide from you and the others!!

I suppose it would be Chem AP, but we had a great teacher. Hmmmm. It would probably be the statics class I am taking now. I barely passed the two tests......

Difficult yes, but I love Latin and Greek prose composition. It's like puzzle solving, but far more interesting than stupid crosswords, sudokus etc. (Gah!)

I'm impressed. I have done C1, C2, C3 and S1 so far. All been pretty easy. C4 and M1 coming up. Haven't got 100% in any though. I find it physically impossible to do more work than I need to get the grade I want. It's very peculiar.
