Check Q2 (a) on the 1996 paper and compare with our Q3 (a), BoS is getting abit lazy I think.

lol, very similar... that's why I remember doing it somewhere ^^'' And I found quite a few questions in the past exams being similar/same =_=

I rembered it because when I did the 96 question I made a really simple silly mistake on it and that kinda thing sticks .

If you do enough pps, you'll find every question in either a generalised or simplified form.

Yeh, well i thought it was pretty similar. I actually thought a lot of the questions were either the same or extremely close to questions from previous papers. However, in preparation i did so many past hsc papers that i realised there is a limit to what they can ask you, so i think anyone that did the past papers (i.e. the smart kids who went bak to 1996 and earlier) would reap the rewards. So yeh, i dont think its really a surprise that the question was similar to 1996

what?

i think its the opposite really..
there was no textbook question in that exam, even that repeat from 1996 was an extremly rare question that could be asked.
usually all the other yrs first 3 questions have things which are similar. eg find lim x--> 0 sinx/x ... *yawn*

i think all up this yr i did 2004-1988 and really, i cant find anything that similar.
