    Strength of 2012 cohorts

    We're definitely not as strong as some of the previous years, but I wouldn't say we're inferior - I think we can still do better than '11 and we're definitely stronger than '13.

    How many MX2 and EE2 students at your school?

    MX2 there's 77 i think, although there's people that have been strongly suggested (read: forced) to drop after the first exam. Probably will end up at 50-something. Not sure about EX2, but there's only one class so I'm guessing it'd be 20.

    As an accelerant, does maths go towards my Atar? (Read description)

    I thought that 2 unit didn't count ONLY if you complete 4 unit the same year. Not 100% sure though.

    99% Lost one mark because I should have used the converse reasoning for one of the circle geo questions.

    School Rankings 2011

    The percentage is number of band 6's divided by number of attempts. My school dropped quite a bit and my grade's a lot weaker than this years.

    complex numbers

    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/32043315/Circle%20Locus.png There's a screenie from my notes. Fairly sure that it's correct, but there might be mistakes, wrote it at like 11pm one night.

    Methods for develpoing your maths skill

    Read over the stuff you're covering in class beforehand. Don't go hard out and learn 2 weeks ahead of everyone else, just make sure you understand the basics before you do it in class. Don't do the homework if you feel you understand something sufficiently (I never did any calculus homework and...

    Post your assessment marks!

    Well, my teacher had been away for 2 weeks (HSC marking) and so we had around one week to finish locus and vectors for complex numbers and probability for 2 unit. Understandably she prioritised 4 unit and we ended up covering the entire probability topic in one lesson. Still shameful though, I...

    Do mathematics 2 unit tests count?

    As long as you don't drop extension 2 (which in your case you obviously can't), 2 unit doesn't count.

    Assessing factual correctness?

    I've got a Physics Oral coming up and we need to submit a pro-forma with references and answer a few questions. One question is "State how you assessed the factual correctness of your gathered data" and it's worth 3 marks. I've basically said that I assessed factual correctness by assessing the...

    Who thinks they stuffed up already?

    Screwed up Legal Studies, although by screwed up I mean I didn't do as well as I planned, still came above average. I knew all my facts and figures, I just can't write essays as well as I need to be able to. Oh well, I've got the entire summer holidays to work on it.

    Vector Question

    Patel Ex 4K Q11 "The points P and Q are represented by the complex numbers z=1-3i and w=-3+4i respectively. Find a point R on the real axis such that PRQ is a right angled triangle" This is the only question I've struggled with in this exercise, so I must just be missing something really...

    Chemistry Band 6?

    I go to a top 20 school that usually gets 1-2 state ranks in Chemistry each year. My overall internal mark was just shy of 80% and I'm not sure what my rank is, but I'd estimate it'd be between 20 and 30 (I did really, shit in the first half of the course, because I put 0 effort in, but then...

    Can I get a band 5?

    I absolutely loved junior science, and so I thought it would be like that all the way through high school. The thing I don't like about chemistry is the ridiculous long response questions that are more about the effect that science has on society than about science itself. Also, my teachers...
