That paper threw me down and raped me. It was at least 3x harder than the trial so by that, I must assume a raw mark of 8/9 out of 120. I couldn't possibly have got over 15. I want to die.

And what was with that simpson's rule question it said use six sub intervals but there were 7 values so how could u divide it ? confusing
6 subintervals = 7 function values

And as for the radium one, it was about the ratio (ie after 1600 it was half: Ae^(-k x 0) = 2Ae^(-k x 1600), and the A's cancelled out then you just had to use normal log laws and such to figure out k.

i seemed to get too many long decimal answers, this seriously disheartened me, time management was always my downfall, by question 6 (which went forever btw) i was still doing ok. then by the question 7 stage i had lost all hope, not only in maths, or my hsc, but in society in general, at one stage seriously thinking that "ill live outside of the system, and live from the land" didnt attemp 10 b onwards and rushed 7, 8, and 9. im looking at about 60 % max, and probably missing my minimum 75 ATAR
