Paper was okay. I know a lot if people who struggled with it though. It was a lot like 4u in that there were many harder to get marks in the middle of the paper. I think I got 82 for this one.

Tell me someone who worked that one out in the time limit. I swear I'll worship them lol

I did it in the last 30 seconds, had an epiphany. I wrote so fast and when i finished I ferociously threw my pen onto the table and the supervisor laughed at me

For those who thought it was a bad paper, it could be worse. You could have to sit next year's paper... with multiple choice.

I did haha. One dude used induction in my grade and got it. All you do is let x=-1,.subtract the resultant equation from the one in ii, and wallah.

Seriously though, everyone in my year just walked out of the hall discussing how they only lost 3-4 marks. I thought I did reasonably until I heard them and then I got depressed.

They're a few. A lot of people had the same experience as you (ie. utter shite).

ah shit i think i may have left out the y-intercept for my graph in Q4 (vi)... would i lose a mark considering we still solved for it in part iii?

Re: holy fucking shit i might as well just die now.

Hey guys, dw if it makes u feel better, I go to Ruse and I lost 13 all up. Can I still get a HSC Mark of 95?

Re: holy fucking shit i might as well just die now.

Oh god. I missed that question for the y intercept. Arghhh why dammit why

Re: holy fucking shit i might as well just die now.

Woah, the median ATAR at Ruse is 98.xx, if you do crap, the name of the school scales you up.

nah, the external marks are soley dependent on you, if you gets a shit external, you're done. However, i doubt people at Ruse can screw it up that easy judging their consistency

AFAIK, it's actually normally in the 99s and just afew points below their mean which is also afew points above 99.

 

[clementc]

Re: holy fucking shit i might as well just die now.

Yeah it's 99.3 or thereabouts depending on the year

 

[WIK123]

Re: holy fucking shit i might as well just die now.

So basically, i've just screwed any chances of getting a 95, with 71/84?

 

[deceptionex]

Re: holy fucking shit i might as well just die now.

Er no, it means your getting an ATAR around 99.3

He means a 95 for 3unit.

And @WIK123, its probably unlikely you'll get a 95. Sorry.
