    UNSW Info Day Meat-Up

    I'd love to come to the open day. But it's about 2 hours away... on a plane.

    13 Units?

    I did 14 units (EE2, MX2, Legal, Ancient & Modern), got 97.25. Do what you feel comfortable with in terms of workload and in terms of ATAR goal (especially in Yr 12). Personally, I'd do as much as you can in Yr 11.

    Anyone at their schools have any cheaters caught?

    Just a question to anyone doing their exams at their school (as opposed to an external venue), couldn't you just pay a Yr 7 kid to stand outside the hall/room and yell in facts/formulas/quotes/etc? If I was desperate to cheat, that's how I would go about it...

    Does anyone else feel as though, these past few weeks have been going soooo slow!?

    Re: Does anyone else feel as though, these past few weeks have been going soooo slow! Most definitely... three more exams (legal is my last one), but after Ancient on Thursday... blah.

    Ext English 1: Possibility of specifying a text?

    I don't think they would/can- if I remember correctly there are 5 texts in the module (I do Romanticism too!) and you have to study 3, so if they did specify a text there is a chance that neither of us would have studied it...

    Raw mark for band 6?

    That's like saying if you can remember all the formulas in MX2 you'll do well.

    Raw mark for band 6?

    I think Modern History has more content, more issues and is just plain harder (I do both). Look at the syllabuses for each topic: Modern syllabuses have key features and issues as well as a list of dot points. Ancient just has dot points.

    General Thoughts: Mathematics Extension 1

    Re: Small numbers You can count the number of people who did Ex 2 Maths at my school over the last two years on one hand. You'll need less hands to count the amount of E4s we get ...

    Any rural students on here that have opinion on how they'll go?

    I'm rural! (Far North Coast) The lack of resources is a little bit annoying, but my teachers are really dedicated... smaller classes are good too (ranked first in 14 units)! I'm hoping for 90+ ATAR, but hopefully AAA scholarship and bonus points will make up for a lower score if that...

    General Thoughts: Mathematics Extension 2

    I concur. I recently found put my school is ranked in the 500s, so being 1/4 in MX2 dooesn't count for much... anyway, I'm hoping for high E3.

    Do you have strict supervisors for your HSC exams? Yes or No?

    I just tore the relevant questions out of my paper (English paper 2) and threw the rest on the floor...

    Watch into the exam room?

    I thought it was a 'watches off, on desks' arrangement.

    Ext 2-- scaled mark ?

    I got a HSC mark of 80 in Ex 2 and I'd guess my raw mark was <50%.
