Im not sure what that mark was directed at, but i dont do 4u

Estel may be capable of that feat. Although i am in no position to judge him on his mathematical ability.

woah, i always thought Estel was a chick

u dont??? since when??? did u drop it???

Refer to exhibit A

Don't worry.
Almost everyone who has come across Estel on BoS has thought that he was a chick...lol - with a name like Estel (sorry Estel), it's an easy mistake to make

 

[~ ReNcH ~]

dang, would he have come in the top few for standard english also?

I know he topped Standard at my school...not sure about state-wide though, since you must get a Band 6 in order to be recoginised in the Top Achievers list - I know he got a Band 5.

i think slide wants 95 in ext2? [something crazy ]

I would assume that Slide Rule would be aiming to get at least 95, although I'm not one for making accurate assumptions

 

[Slidey]

Certainly, we will not know until it has passed, but I will aim for that.

Certainly, we will not know until it has passed, but I will aim for that.

I'm contemplating whether a 94-95 is doable for me...I'd need 93-98/120 raw, assuming 75/120 aligns to 90...

 

[velox]

Dux with 99.90
...he did Standard English so I'm sure that was the main obstacle to a 100 or at least a 99.95.

he seemed to have screwed up 3u lol. No band 6 for 3u. Must have done pretty damn well in 4u/spanish/chem.

lol.
Ah...the reason why his name isn't on the Honours List for Ext 1 is coz he accelerated in 2003 and got 98 (or 49/50 since he only did 2/3u in 2003)...

Btw. he got 98 in Physics too, by topping the state...and I'm assuming his Ext 2 mark was probably ~96-97 judging by what others in his class got.

 

[ishq]

I suddenly feel very dumb....

 

[blackfriday]

only very few people can get past mid-90s in 4u maths. feel better that you're just like everyone else.

 

[ishq]

Yes, in the land of the average....

 

[JamiL]

are u fukn serious, i was aiming 96 in 4u maths, mabey that is a lil high... n 97 in 3u... mabey i should lower my standards 2 sumfin capable... lol

 

[withoutaface]

approximately 30 people get 96 or higher in 4u.

 

[~ ReNcH ~]

approximately 30 people get 96 or higher in 4u.

Hmm...if only that were the case for Ext 1 as well - I'm probably in something like the top 500, which kind of sucks...
I'm sure the dux of my school would have got ~96, since the guy who came second to him in Ext 2 got 94.

 

[JamiL]

realy... i would of though since 35-40% of the state get 90+ (45/50) in 4u mabe 10% have recived 96 or greater

 

[blackfriday]

30% of the state get band e4...but 3000-odd people do ext 2 maths so thats like 900 people, which sounds worse than you think.

 

[~ ReNcH ~]

There's probably a huge gap between the number of students who get 95 and the number who get 96 - I haven't checked the stats yet, so I'm not quite sure.
