agreed
they should increase the number of people doing Advanced. The school said that they would increase the number of Advanced students by moving Standard students up they worked well. They lied. :( oh well, the school can't really teach english anyway.
as for maths, I'm happy about 3 unit...
thanks
also, I fucked up in my first 3 unit assessment which was worth 15%. i think I ranked like 15th.
is that gonna affect my chances of getting 95+ dramatically?
School rank: 60s
English Standard: 2/95
3U Maths: 5/80
Ancient History: 2/35
Studies of Religion: 10/60
Economics: 1/35
Picked up 4U Maths in Year 12
thanks
Re: Australian Mathematics Competition
what was the answer to the question on the clock face and the size of the acute angle?
what about the one on the positive fraction + reciprocal = x/60??
and the one on the four cicles drawn with centres at the four vertices of a square?
Re: Australian Mathematics Competition
for the divisible by 7 one, I basically listed all the two digit numbers from 11 - 99 inclusive, and then reversed them.
e.g.
1111
1221
1331
1441
1551
etc
I know that the answer is definitely more than 15.
Re: Australian Mathematics Competition
From most of the responses on the BOS, I assume that most people found the test alright. I'm thinking that the cut offs for distinction and high distinction will be very high
Re: Australian Mathematics Competition
yeah.
the second and fourth number can be either:
3 and 5
4 and 5
3 and 5: 2 arrangements
the reverse of that = 2 arrangements
4 and 5: 3! = 6
the reverse of that = 3! = 6
adding together = 6 + 6 + 2 + 2 = 16
the answer is A
Re: How did people go in the maths comp today?
map question was Q20. 4 marks :D
Were any of the questions from Q21-25, (c) by any chance? (from the senior paper)
I guessed (c)for a lot them.
Re: How did people go in the maths comp today?
it was easier than last year's. I'm scared the machine won't be able to read my answers, because I didn't colour dark enough.
