And what was with that simpson's rule question it said use six sub intervals but there were 7 values so how could u divide it ? confusing

whhat did you get for the probability part part a)? in question 9

Haha, I said *compared* to 6 and 7; I reckon I got about 8 for that question, I can't even remmeber what the question was for probability.

I got 91/216

IT WAS HORRIBLE!!!! THE WORST ONE OF ALL MY EXAMS.
I will be lucky if I pass, and what the hell was with question 9, that was the worst question for me, like question 10 was easier than question 9. I was aiming for an ATAR of 85-90, but with my maths exam my ATAR will be in the 70's if I'm lucky.

that exam was HARD and i did such stupid mistakes its infuriating! They should give you more time to really analyse the questions...didn't even finish the paper and didn't have enough time to finish qn10 - they looked easy but i didn't read them through cause i had to follow up on others and didn't have enough time
band 6 pppppleaaase.....but i'l take a band 6 as well

I have to say that it was one of the hardest tests for 2U I've done an I have completed >40 tests. I see BoS likes to f*** around with HSC '09... it wasn't easy, but I hope people still do well.

there has to be an odd number to get the 14241 pattern happening

Re: BOS has really fucked up this year WTF WAS THAT

yeah that was harder than any past paper. not just because it was the real thing but the questions were harder. q 10 was pretty easy but q8 and q9 fucked me up.

I know past papers were way easier.

 

[daryl-d]

there were questions that were tricky... but overall i liked the exam

did anyone get 5/12 - 2ln2 for the last part of Q10

 

[adcommo]

does that mean if everyone thought it was hard, and it defs was, does that mean it will scale more this year???

 

[Ostentatious]

six sub intervals = 7 values

[Brennyd]
