who here is glad NESA got rid of circle geometry and all that other stuff in MX2?

 

[coolcat6778]

2024 is the easiest and best paper ever. yet it still aligned better than 2020 probably cause 2024 had a weaker cohort

Yeah and conics I still don't know what a focus is

Have u guys found the 2022 exam much harder than most of the other exams?

Is it me or i found 2023 harder than 2022

it's so useless, uni doesn't cover circle geometry and that lol. the fact that it took nsw 40 years to add vectors in to their math syllabus is crazy

i agree 2024 was hella easy i was shocked when i was doing it cos their 3u was pretty simple relative to other years as well

 

[kkk579]

I would love a big mechanics question at the end, like 8 marks worth or something

I hope no hard vectors lowkey im prolly the most trash at that

 

[kkk579]

I hope our exam is similar to 2024

i remember walking out wondering if i forgot to struggle cause it was way too straightforward (except for q16)

it still scaled very similarly to 2022 and 2023 tho so maybe bad cohort or it wasnt as easy as people are making it out

nah e4 cutoff was around 5-6 marks higher

 

[lucas10champ]

guys please do good in English so scaling for MX2 will be good

I'm trying (English is my worst subject).

Not looking forward to the likely disaster of paper 2 tomorrow morning.

Wait if a cohort does bad why does alignment get better

From what I know if you outperform your cohort to a certain degree, your mark won't get dragged down by them as much and instead scale more relative to the state average, but I'm not 100% sure so take this with a grain of salt.

Approximately 38% of MX2 candidates get an E4 every year. NESA wants to keep it like that every year, hence they adjust the E4 cutoff mark to fit that percentage.

4u and 3u people yall are based. On the other hand, this might mean MX2 will scale worse since people do worse in English if there are no they/thems.

that table is lying, 1 and 0 are both binary
