Maths Extension 1 Predictions/Thoughts (3 Viewers)

[C2H6O]

I can't believe 5 people who couldn't even answer question 11 paid for their raw marks

NESA was making bank in 2023 everyone got voluntarily extorted

the graph don't look linear to be tho

It should be piecewise linear between the band cut-offs for a given year

probably affected by internal alignment

hell nah i dont want to be thinking abt this exam

actually Trebla is right, the alignment is completely linear. You can see how the datapoints for 2023 completely match the extrapolated line. the cusps are where different bands start

ok then well this turns into a simple problem then

if we assume the bands are linear, and the e4 cutoff is 60 raw for a hard year and 75 raw for an easy year, we can predict the possible trend by drawing lines to 100
if @killer queen is aiming for min 97 aligned, draw a line and extrapolate the raw, which comes out to be 86 raw for a really difficult year, and 92 raw for a really easy year, and if its in the middle of easy and hard, 89 raw

i think def a lot of people r saying this years paper will be cooked coz last year was fairly chill.

Agreed, especially looking at what they did to adv (from the perspective of a relatively good maths accelerated students), I am quite scared for monday :v

 

[C_master]

i still havent touched this subject since mx2
the hsc mx1 papers dont even look bad
genuinely thinking about revising this day before the exam and focusing on chem instead

 

[coolcat6778]

chemistry calculation questions are so hard . if only our teacher didnt waste time talking about american politics and useless bs. fucking hate my chem teachers. like tds, and can't teach for shit? He also brags that he's part of fucking MENSA. Like I don't give a fucking shit about your IQ, you clearly suck at your fucking job and look and sound like a redditor just quit already

what subjects do you do

 

[coolcat6778]

what subjects do you do

mx2 and mx1 and chem . english and physics last year

 

[anonymoushehe]

mx2 and mx1 . english and physics last year

oh damn so are you accelerating chem for next year or?

 

[coolcat6778]

oh damn so are you accelerating chem for next year or?

im in year 12 now

 

[v.tex]

Yeah most of mx1 is lowkey not too bad. 14 gets challenging though in many papers, some of 13 can also be a bit weird

 

[anonymoushehe]

wait im confused are exam writers the same as 2024 for this year? like did 2023 and 2022 have the same writers which is why they are more the difficult ones? like 2020 and 2021 gave similar vibes if that makes sense
