Carrot, the angles refer to the ones inclined on the positive x-axis right?

Yep, or negative X axis depending on how it is constructed.

Re: Official BOS Mathematics Trial Examinations: Spring Edition.

Will the questions be harder than this? Or relatively the same difficulty, or...MX2 Harder 3U difficulty?

Yep the projectile motion Q I replaced is considerably more difficult, and some questions you really gotta think about it to do them.

3U can only get so difficult, whereas 4U is a whole different story.

What raw mark are you expecting from E4 students?

Re: Official BOS Mathematics Trial Examinations: Spring Edition.

Nope you do not need to bring any money or anything. Just yourself and the usual stuff for an exam.

On Monday, I will be going to the Library to see if I can move it to the 1st week or maybe 2nd week of holidays.

Okay, so everything has now been finalised.

What:

A difficult Extension 1 and Extension 2 paper, aimed primarily at people wanting a challenge. I will personally mark every single paper to HSC Standard (I work with some senior HSC markers, so I am familiar with the marking process), and I will record the marks and PM them to you.

I will organise a time for you to come and collect your paper again. There will be NO opportunities to 'scab marks', because everybody will be marked equally.

When:

Monday 24th September (Extension 1 Mathematics 10:30am) and Wednesday 26th September (Extension 2 Mathematics 11am).

Where:

Parramatta Library top floor.

What to bring:

Usual examination materials such as pens, pencil, ruler, eraser, compass etc.

Attendance list:

If you have any further questions or wish to also attend, please post in this thread or send me a Private Message.

On the day of the paper, after the examination, I will make a thread to allow students to discuss the paper.

Even if you want to scab marks, they won't count to your HSC anyway. Plus, no scabbing of marks allowed in HSC unless if someone counted it incorrectly. (I hope not)

As for me, QQ I won't be able to make it on that day. Got a matlab exam on that day :(

Added you =)

And apologies for any confusion caused. Moving the posts somehow made my first post get shifted down, probably because they are arranged according to date.
