    Aeronautical Engineering

    Helps a bit. But you don't need it. I'm doing the same course as you but they teach you the same principles in uni. I haven't even used anything from high school so far except for maths and physics

    E4 cut off- after atar release 58/84

    Okay, I checked my answer with terry lee, got around 58/84, hence i received an E4 mark which was 90. So I think that 58 was the cut off for this yr. Also I'm 80% sure i kept my own mark as the people below me did worse than me. tell me if you got lower than 58 and got an e4, thanks

    ATAR for comp sci.

    I think you should apply for UTS, Civil and Mechanical cut off is always higher than expected. 82 atar is very low for unsw considering the minimum is 80.

    General Thoughts: Geography

    i did Q24 and Q26, 25 was way too hard. Q24 was a bit weird, factors which cause ecosystem to become vulnerable are location,extent and biodiversity. However since we have to relate to the stimulus it didn't mention anything about biodiversity, even if you look at the map it doesn't give a...

    Damn! no mega cities////Cut offs?

    Did you notice that there was no extended response for mega city since 2006. And 2011 paper didn't contain any mega city related question in the entire exam. (except for 1 in MP) but that was given. Anyways what do you guys think Band 6 and 5 cut off are? Knowing that it is an easy test.

    General Thoughts: Geography

    Easy test, but 8 mark was a bit challenging. Hated the Cuc Phuong topographic map, took so much time to fine "da-river' thought HSC was trolling me.

    Rate the Difficulty

    Well i think the cut off was 54 and the layout was quite similar , in 2009 Q6 and Q7 were the only hard one. Similarly this year Q5 and Q7 were the only challenging one. I thought it was around the same. Anyways....STOP STALKING MY POSTS!!! :L

    Is the topic integration 2unit or Extension 1 math?

    integration level 2unit- basic, easy. Don't even need table of standard integrals. 3unit- easy 4unit work. As in they give us the substitution 4unit- Find your own substitution. Integration is the easiest topic in Maths IMO.

    radian mode

    Shouldn't be a problem, because there wasn't any other major trig question which required conversion by calc. Radian mode only applies for anything with SIN/COS,ect. If you do basic calculations like its the same as degree mode. Don't stress about it, whats done is done.

    HSC students' maths paper 'cruel and difficult' (SMH)

    Re: Lol people from bos mentioned in smh article That poll is inaccurate, BOS states that 9014 enrolled but poll has over >9500, and I didn't even vote. I think out of the 9000 student only 500 or so voted.

    cutoffs.

    I don't think this test was harder than 2009, so e4 cut off should be around 58-60/84.
