    2017 Mathematics Extension 1 HSC Exam Thoughts

    what would 63-65/70 align to? not sure if i would lose marks in 14 c iii for not doing 2nd derivative and showing it was a maximum and for question 12 b i for not putting in the x=5 intercept of one of the absolute value graphs. They didn't have it in the solutions but I'm wondering if...

    Should I drop maths ext 1, chemistry or physics?

    I'd drop chem, further in the course, there is a bit of common ground between physics and ext 1, in simple harmonic motion, applications of calculus to the physical world etc. You seem to be feeling most concerned about marks in chem. Also, you NEED to study everything, predicting exam...

    can I still get there?

    firstly- congratulations on your marks for chem physics and eco, thats awesome. For maths, I'd recommend little flash cards with general formulas that simplify each concept- no examples, just a general formula. Also- do lots of harder questions- that way the exam will feel easier. For...

    Can I/How to get 99+? Half yearlies not great

    Hey! you for sure can still get 99! But, I'd recommend dropping physics if your school allows it. You don't seem to keen on it, and as your marks aren't that great in it, I don't see any reason for you too keep it especially as you have 13 units. You don't want to burn out and it would have a...

    Half yearlies prep/stress/mistakes/other

    I just finished my half yearlies, they weren't too stressful, even though I had 6 exams in 4 days. But I had my creatives done and mostly refined in the holidays and did a gradual build up of study over about 5 weeks leading up to the exam to try and refine topics I wasn't too comfortable with...

    How do I study for the SATs?

    just do 2 practice tests, but find the common areas that you got things wrong. Its not just split into reading/writing/maths, there are subsections like your use of words in context, command of evidence, algebra, use of commas etc. afterwards just refine and understand your errors it will be...

    Does prelim knowledge get tested in HSC exams?

    for eco, the content isnt directly tested but a lot of prelim stuff will be needed to understand hsc content. maths is up to 30% but if its a question of mainly prelim stuff but also 1 bit of hsc stuff, it counts as a hsc question. But a lot of it is embedded in the hsc course

    Do you need to know your own sources for core study of the histories?

    hell yeah you need other sources. its best to have solid, versatile quotes, minimises stuff you have to remember and maximises marks. for ancient, when you get onto your historical period- id recommend also knowing which book the source is from, just helps to show more knowledge around topic...

    Tips for organisation for Year 11

    In terms of organising tasks, I'd make daily/weekly to do lists and try to do extra tasks like practice questions/making notes before homework. The prelim course for ancient is kinda weird, but if you write notes from the textbook as you go, you'll be sweet. The HSC course is more...
