How did everyone go? I thought it was quite difficult in comparison to past years.

Thought it was quite hard as well. The plane question was challenging but managed to get it after a while. However, the last question is another story.

 

[smartalec]

totally got the whole of the simpsons rule question wrong. also how were we supposed to work out A in that taxable income table question?

-also did everyone get a lot of d's on the first page? if was freaking me out!

I hope I wasn't the only one who didn't manage to complete the paper...

Can someone please scan/upload it? I haven't seen this year's general CSSA paper.

Note that the security date for the General paper has passed so there should be no dramas in doing so

 

[smartalec]

i finished it but craply. if thats a word.

 

[smartalec]

pretty much equielant to not finishing. generally maintained a good rank but ill be lucky to like. pass. hopefully everyone else found it equally as hard!

 

[coralie1994]

what was your rank? don't worry, pretty much everyone who sat that exam found it hard at my school too... sucks though cause I was hoping to keep my rank as well but I guess not

Guys - if you still have other papers to go in yr trials, maybe this postmortem exercise is not going to be helpful. You may get upset over "stoopid mistakes" you may have made here or there. How is that to bebefit you. Do so after you have completed all yr Trials.

 

[smartalec]

it was about 12-15/105
im sure youll do fine as well. ill be lucky to get ANY of q28 right!

ive got a week to study for my next exam. but what you said is true!

 

[coralie1994]

Yeah guess you're right! what done is done... the only thing we can do is better ourselves for next time!

 

[coralie1994]

Naw don't worry, we still have the hsc... hopefully our performance then will be much better! lol

 

[cutemouse]

Can someone please upload the trial with solns? I want to see the definition of General being hard

 

[smartalec]

hahaha. its probably not hard for others but im not too crash hot at maths!!

 

[smartalec]

and post not even 3 hours after the exam, as if anyone would have the trial paper AND solutions.

 

[smartalec]

regardless, im curious as to what everyone did for the taxable income table. how did you work out A?

 

[BMChoc]

that exam was so difficult we defs needed more time

 

[michbrown_933]

yeh i also ran out of time

 

[woga21]

It was so easy I had enough time to get out a 4unit hsc and do it in the time that was remaining.
