Haha that's sick! Kudos for maintaining focus I can imagine that it would've felt quite scary cause no one wants to make silly mistakes:oops:

Quick question regarding marking but say for example you attempted a lot of the harder questions and had done some working relevant to the question, will HSC markers give out single marks for that? I know usually there is specific criteria (and usually one mark that says "or equivalent merit")...

It's definitely a harder substitution to use but I mean if you managed to get it to work with no mistakes in your working, I can't see why they wouldn't give you the full marks (provided you did get the same answer). There's always multiple ways to solve a problem my friend <3

Wasn't last year's cutoff like 78 raw though for a 90 (even though the exam was quite easy)? Unless I'm wrong and heard some wrong info through the grapevine:oops:

Work hard, think about concepts deeply and most of all... Enjoy it! Extension 2 Maths is a rewarding journey for those who put effort in, irrespective of what your final mark is.

Legend! Thanks mate :)

Gotchas so does that mean like the number of Band 6s and E4s awarded would be significantly less than previous years?

Greetings fellow HSC comrades I come to you with a question regarding cutoffs. So my current understanding is that they are based upon fixed standards however, what would happen if say most of the state did not meet that standard but you were still able to do quite well in comparison to...

Really hoping its like 90-94

What would a raw mark of 73 or 74 ish scale to roughly?

What would happen if someone used up a lot of the space but didn't write in the sections where it says "Do not write in this section" or below the line but still went a bit outside of the brackets around the page? Will they still manually check and ensure that the content still makes it through...

Thanks heaps everyone. I go to a normal public school so to be honest some years we do well in the HSC others not so much. It's all quite variable but I do think I have quite a competitive grade. Everyone in my subjects does try quite hard and we all do our best to work together which is nice...

Hey everyone, I figured I'd probably write something here in case anyone is in a similar boat. My school's trials got cancelled so they are just using our past three assessment tasks for maths to calculate our final internal mark. I was wondering whether it is still possible for me to obtain...

Thanks so much for the advice! I'm currently ranked top six in both subjects at the moment.

Hey there, So far we've finished two internal assessment tasks per subject at school. I'm quite happy with my marks for every subject except for 3U and 4U. Bit nervous if I can make a comeback and still obtain an E4. My marks have been so far: -------------------------------- MEX1 First...
