    band cut offs

    Re: Band 6 Raw? I think you had to use a compass for it, that's what i did, just drew circles everywhere and joined a few dots haha probably didn't get it though! I just remembered doing something vaguely similar in year 8... I couldn't get the rollercoaster question, i differentiated and all...

    band cut offs

    Re: Band 6 Raw? So what are we thinking for around about 110-112/120? And rank 1st internally by around about 25%

    band cut offs

    Re: Band 6 Raw? The difficulty in the paper came from the need for higher interpretation, once you knew what they were actually asking you to do and when you knew how to apply a concept the maths itself was relatively straightforward. This helps to pick the rote learners from the people who...

    General Thoughts: Mathematics

    I really liked the paper, the maths involved wasn't too difficult however it was a difficult paper because it was very left field and required us to interpret the questions and figure out exactly what they want us to do. I found that nearly all the questions at first left me thinking WTF...

    Q 10.

    Once you differentiate, you need to use the discriminant ie. (triangle) = b^2 - 4ac If that's less than 0 there are no real roots.

    Do doctors do practicals on corpses?

    I was actually saying that formalin doesn't bother me now because I work essentially up to my elbows in the stuff already... In what way is the stuff at UNSW illegal? I was planning on going there (ATAR permitting)

    I am bored

    Like Namu said, crossing the y-axis is no problem however if it crosses the x-axis and you're trying to find the total shaded area you will need to do it as two definite integrals taking absolute values, then just add.

    Do doctors do practicals on corpses?

    No but it's not normal to want to study medicine so you can essentially "cut up dead pplz YAYA"... Trust me, I don't even study med (yet) but I know you will be sorely disappointed and will have taken someones university place who really really wanted it to be a doctor, not to cut up dead...

    I'm aiming for a band 6/E4 in everything except for German in which I'll be happy with a mid to high band 5... My only struggle will probably be chem...

    this looks like a smart year

    Haha, but seriously, I was giving this guy some helpin chem before his exam and he was nearly crying with the stress of it, he couldn't work out why valencies were important to writing chemical equations, I told him that maybe next time studying at the last minute wasn't a good idea. He got 10%...

    OMG @ the workload

    Maybe you're not cut out to do 4 unit? It seems that 4 unit is the main problem for you, why not talk to your teacher and see what they say about the workload and the quality of your work? Although the HSC is pretty important it's not worth getting really stressed and anxious about especially...

    this looks like a smart year

    Well the highest UAI at my school in it's history was 97.65 and this year the headmaster thinks were going to get two 99+ so that's encouraging. Shame the '10ers are all dumb fucks

    General Thoughts: English Advanced Paper 2 (Modules)

    Yeah, that's true but maybe if alicemarie feels disheartened by reading so-called 'elite' students' saying they are confident then she should get off bos and gostudy so she can share their confidence. I just dislike the way some people can't make a point without contradicting themselves or...

    A subject which I like but am not good at, or the reverse?

    I would say drop both and I think that after not too long you will but I would drop Eco because 56 in physics is scaled pretty well anyway. If you enjoy it and are looking forward to it then you're going to be motivated to work harder and therefore get better marks. Physics is hard work but I...

    General Thoughts: English Advanced Paper 2 (Modules)

    Have a sook somewhere else would you? I would also like to point out the fact that you a great big hipocrite. This is because:1) People who are confident in their performance should lie about this confidence2) People should not lie about the number of pages they writePlease have a little...

    Hamlet - loyalty WTF???

    Yep! This question was designed IMO to distinguish the "on-the-spotters" from the "memorisers". Personally I talked about the loyalty of Ophelia to Polonius and Hamlet, the affect of paranoia on Hamlet's loyalty and the ghosts power over Hamlet's conscience as a result of his loyalty. About 25...
