How about the 2004 HSC 4 unit maths will be? (1 Viewer)

[ressul]

Any ideas?
I actually found that it's very hard to forecast the kind of questions in 4 unit papers. The kinds are changing every year.
But 3 unit is easy. All the types are regularly every year.

the topic makes no sense. I have no idea what you're talking about.

 

[Dougie]

ur right, theree r so many left field questions they could send us

I forsee, integration, complex numbers, volumes, mechanics, polynomials, graphing, and harder 3u.

I hope I'm right.

Yes...

how about number theory?

I have a theory on number - I am number one.

Yea, the main reason the recent Q.8's seem difficult is because theres no topic for them!!!
It's not like we can practise them either

/me crosses fingers than he see and makes sense of everything in the exam

 

[Archman]

it'll be cool to have some number theory, but it will probably be worked into a dumb induction or some other crappy algebraic thingy.

 

[Gesus]

the topic is number theory.

that's because the chief examiner is a number theorist. i bet you didn't know that. i know it because i'm close to where the action is ... very close ... closer than you think.

/me expects to see tywebbs face on cover of exam ...w00t

i like how the title gives so much insight into the thread

 

[McLake]

I should change it, but it is too funny ...

What exactly does "number theory" refer to. Would an example be 8b from last year?

 

[Slidey]

The theory of numbers. E.g. Proving e/pi transcendental.
