    Cheating punishments?

    What kinda bullshit is it when an examiner accepts it? If you could remember things in depth that well, it'd be weird to see all those things on your desk 15 minutes later, but if they checked before, how could they accuse you? GL.

    Lol I like the look of this thread, I got 88 in my trial with a night of cramming. Marked by an hsc marker, too. Shutup Zazzy.

    Where do you stand?

    Re: BOS political compass scatterplot That test is flawed, the more right wing phrases are given in a way which to agree with would be self-incriminating

    Labour Market Policies Question!

    I don't know much about this, but I am pretty sure they're not moving back to a centralised system LOL. 20 years ago it was a labor government which led to decentralisation, the howard govt encouraged this further, the Rudd govt is instituting reforms which though not as extreme as howard's are...

    General Thoughts: Mathematics

    Because we all know how hard it is to use Simpson's Rule, which is also a component of the General Maths course, let alone the difficulties involved in sketching y-2x=3. Definitely 3 unit stuff.

    2009 Mathematics 2U HSC Worked Solutions

    I think your answer with the savings question is wrong, I got something like $129966 as opposed to your $128k; and I'm not alone. Is it because you rounded up the payments to 179? he didn't need a full payment the last time, like .4 of a payment or something, hence shouldn't be regarded as a...

    How "provocative" were your conflicting perspectives ideas

    Discussed dramatic style in Caesar + emotional depth and appeal to audience etc. Pity I didn't discuss the 'diverse' component enough, though imo that word's a bit of a wank when it comes to English

    I wrote in lead.

    True, but then again, how many people out of 25000 or so would have made that mistake? It'd be a damn few thousand.

    wat do u think was da hardest question

    For all the stuff about the middle questions being the hardest, parts of q10 were the hardest, and so was all the probability (yeah I'm bad at it). But then, I didn't really bother spending much time on the parts I didn't get.

    scaling between maths ext1 n physics????

    Mx1 easily. But don't use that to make you choose dropping one. They both scale awesome.

    Yes; I must ask, with graphs, do they have to be in pen? I did them in pencil, but everything else in pen...

    Did you leave out any questions?

    Left out the last 2 mark part in 10, and the stupid one mark dividing up triangle into 4 isosceles question.

    Rollercoaster Q WTF?

    band cut offs

    Re: Would this be enough for a band 5? Yes, it's possible... But, although the aligning probably won't be massively generous this year, this is all speculation, we can't pinpoint it down to an individual mark. In previous years 100 has gotten a band 6 though

    General Thoughts: Mathematics

    I found the exam easy, although I know I've lost at least 10 or 11 marks. Does that make me cocky? The exam wasn't difficult, it was easy questions dressed up in approaches relatively unorthodox in comparison to the papers of recent years. I think I've only ever done a couple of q10s which were...

    band cut offs

    Re: Would this be enough for a band 5? Don't be fooled by the people saying 'oh, this test was SUPER HARD, THEREFORE 70/120' That's just not the case. The test was different this year, but it was only a bit harder than the 2008 one really. Hence the aligning probably won't be massively...
