    New Syllabus Consultations - Thoughts?

    the only major change i can see for maths is introducing 3d vectors in 3u. in fact most of these syllabi have little to no changes

    no. theres no such thing as bs. everything you say needs to have purpose and meaning. you really need to know your theory well and use terminology correctly and where its relevant. if the marker doesnt see those buzzwords, youre not getting the marks. also you need to include calculations and...

    i was telling people last year to not underestimate the marking criteria of an easy exam and i got nerd emojied. all of you need to be seperated into bands one way or another and nesa will always find a way to do so. if its an easy exam, then they will give less marks to responses that only...

    Should there be an Aboriginal voice to parliament?

    i dont like the terms 'more educated' and 'less educated'. like what does that even truly mean. someone can easily go to uni, learn jack and just pass courses, then get a degree at the end and be considered educated. in my opinion, i think the key distinction to be made is not someones...

    ye exactly. 2021 felt more like a trial exam than anything. 2021 q14 is also radically different as it was many self-contained problems rather than a small number of significant ones

    for 16 c i), the non-otherwise approach is to create a vector perpendicular to B called C = (b2, -b1). area OAB = 1/2 * |OA||OB|sin(<AOB) = 1/2 * |OA||OB|cos(90 - <AOB) = 1/2 * |OA||OC|cos(<COA) = 1/2(OA . OC) = 1/2(a1b2 - a2b1) since |OB| = |OC| pretty sure this is the simplest you can get.

    people think its harder than 2022 when its a bit dubious whether thats true. this years exam way more 'abstract' apparantly which i didnt really get that vibe tbh

    14 a was easy if youve done past papers and seen it, 14 b i) everyone wouldve gotten, 14 b ii) the hard part is knowing to use double roots but thats pretty clear after realising it needs one real solution. 14 c i) ill say is a little hard but theres a really smooth method for it that only...
