I do extension and I love and hate it at the same time I love it because -It gives me the opportunity to talk about social issues/current affairs -1/4 of the assessment is basically just writing fanfiction HAHA -Analysing the film is pretty nice as well -Really helps with continuers (just from...

does anyone get really distracted during an exam? Today during a maths exam the only thing I could concentrate on was the whirring of the fan and people flipping their pages fml

Re: HSC 2015 4U Marathon $ Let points P and Q be $ (x_{1},y_{1}) $ and $ (x_{2}, y_{2}) $ respectively. $ $ From implicitly differentiating $, m_{P} $ and $ m_{Q} $ are $ \frac{-2x_{1}}{3y_{1}} $ and $ \frac{-2x_{2}}{3y_{2}} $ respectively. $ $ If the tangents from P and Q meet at...

Re: HSC 2015 4U Marathon That was a fun question! At first I tried to brute force it with algebra but that failed miserably. Then it struck me that using a polynomials approach would get the proof much more elegantly and much faster as well Will post my answer as soon as I remember how to...

I always have a bunch of muesli bars or a sneaky chocolate if I'm going to be working on English

Many a sleepless night I have asked myself this question :'(

survived the last two weeks with max 6.5 hours of sleep and I think my body is now punishing me :(

how come financialwar doesn't have a big red rep penis

You might (probably not) for prelim. But in the HSC, unless you do the really rare module Language and Gender (where you might study Twelfth Night if your teacher wants to), Ext 1 is Shakespeare free. Though if you do Romanticism you will encounter A LOT of poets and authors and critics who...

Regrets: Biology for prelim. I actually didn't mind the subject itself but sciences are just not my thing :\ Should have done: Ancient History Not that it would have mattered since I would have dropped both when the HSC started

My biggest obstacle is probably maintaining a consistent study regime for Japanese. I did alright for prelim just through a lot of passive study but I just feel it won't cut it for the HSC

Re: HSC 2015 4U Marathon I'm so confused :S Are we supposed to solve part a) simultaneously? Cause I did and I got x=0 and I have no idea how this can be used in part B)

dont listen to prince henry It is manageable but it will be a lot of work and you will need to be super organised. Only do it if you are really passionate about all your subjects. Passion will sustain you when your mind cannot.

From what I've heard/experienced matrix is pretty hit and miss, especially during the junior years

Went tutoring in year 9 at matrix to get ahead in maths. Ended up coming dead last. In all honesty, it depends where you go for tutoring. Afterwards I went to one of those hardcore asian teachers and I got back on my feet. However, just going tutoring doesn't guarantee good marks. I'd like...

Hmmm. My school's EXT 1 english cohort basically halved at the start of year 12 so I definitely see where you are coming from; the subject is quite demanding given that it's only 1 unit. I'd say wait until your first assessment, and if you don't do well, drop it. If you don't do well, no amount...
