the syllabus is from fucking 2012 and for 'emerging technologies' we look at the bloody wii u controller and the touch id --real revolutionary stuff
Well I mean it was suppose to be updated (I hope/think) but NESA never got around to doing that.

for mx2?? like maybe if it's q16 and it's the end of the paper and you have half an hour left.... actually idrk maybe checking is better

MAYBE just do the stuff that will get a few marks and leave it at that??

Oh I didn't realise - so IDeA is just like an accelerated (ish) course with more opportunities vs Co-op being an actual scholarship??
Also I didn't know this but IDeA program has expanded and now includes cyber sec so I guess IDeA is becoming a cadetship program with multiple courses.

thats the thing ideally u wouldnt want to check for dumb mistakes and not make them in the first place- so if u do its like ur sacrificing marks just for a chance to find mistakes

oh no that's the year after me i'm stocked to the brim with stuff for y12, this poor soul @moonsuyoung is going in blind (forgot if she chose to take it)
but i made a bet with my deputy that if I do well in my sor hsc exam this year, i can count it towards my 14 units (cause doing language outside of school u have to do 14 units for first term), so I'm hoping I don't do software engineering now HAHAHHAA

@synthesisFR I would say this instead

integration >>>> complex > mechanics (regular resisted and SHM) > proof (regular stuff) > vectors > proof (hard as shit qs) > mechanics (hard af resisted projectile bs stuff)
