Nah just joking, not that good - but someone give me an estimate please ? School ranking: 200 Ranks: English - 20/120 Maths Extension 1 - 2/25 Maths Extension 2 - 1/13 Music 2 - 3/11 French Continuers - 1/7 Let me know if any additional information would help

Hey all, I posted this in the arts section but thought it is relevant here as well. I'm applying for next year uni, but I'm not exactly sure what to do. I'm juggling between doing a bachelor of advanced math/science (same thing apperently) at UNSW or USYD cause I really like maths, but I...

Hey all, I'm applying for next year uni, but I'm not exactly sure what to do. I'm juggling between doing a bachelor of advanced math/science (same thing apperently) at UNSW or USYD cause I really like maths, but I also have some interest in philosophy and music, and since I have no idea what...

I'm sorry, I don't wanna be that guy, but I have to point out... It's j'espère réussir en français, not à réussir. But otherwise that is some excellent french, are you native ? Je suis impressioné!

Ahh i see, making 99.95s just that bit easier to get !

Hey all, This may be a stupid question, but where do we find out our school rank ? I've looked up and found inconsistent results... Which site is the correct one ? Also for an atar estimate, how much can the estimate be wrong by if the school rank from 2014 dropped down due to a dumb cohort ...

Yeah i know (a little) about taylor series, but I've never understood why you can let a function be a polynomial be a polynomial of infinite degree in the first place. Like say to find the e^x one, let e^x = a0 +a1x +a2x^2 +... And then use calculus to find the coefficents. But how do you know...

How do you know whether a function can be written like that ? Actually wait the explanation is probably far too deep and complex for this blog, what are the theorems called so I can look them up ?

Re: HSC 2016 4U Marathon - Advanced Level I think the other guy's proof is valid. You have A^2 = 2X, where A and X are both integers. Now consider if A is odd, i.e A = 2n+1 then A^2 = 4n^2 + 4n + 1 = 2(2n^2 + 2n) + 2 = 2m + 1 (n, m are integers). Therefore if A is odd, the A^2 is odd which is...

How can the average atar be 69 ? I don't get it, the atar is a rank against everyone in the state, so shouldn't it be exactly 50 ?

Hey all, So I've just finished my hsc and am contemplating what to do with my life. I'm (weirdly) more a maths person so I was thinking doing an advance math degree or advanced science with math units at UNSW or USYD. Except I'm kinda worried about employment opportunities, so I'm thinking of...

Lol i got 20 meters

Ahh i see thanks

Haven't a clue haha.

Awesome, well I'll have to just wait and see :)

Ok cool, I was just making sure because a lot of my teachers as you said could not explain it and it made me wonder if we even learn it at uni at all, unless you get to a very high level of math (graduate/post-graduate). Can't wait til uni !

Hey all, So I've just finished the hsc this year and now that it's all over, I'm thinking about all the things in maths that made absolutely no sense to me. One of these is good old integration. Like when first learning calculus, we were told dy/dx is NOT a fraction. But then when we get to...

Re: HSC 2016 4U Marathon - Advanced Level I like that one. Nice introduction to 4 unit problems. But since you made the problem, how did you actually find the roots for that quartic equation in x ? The 1/2sqrt(2-sqrt(3)) ones.
