Mock exams (1 Viewer)

[underthesun]

Done your mock exams? Did you do it back-to-front like what OLDMAN was suggesting?

Just curious, post your raw mock exam marks

edit: I'm waiting till the first person votes on 120/120

What is a mock exam?

 

[underthesun]

When you do an exam at home, with strict timing and strict rules (no textbook, no disturbance etc).

Basically simulating a real exam.

edit : Who voted 120/120?

 

[Rahul]

hmm...ok i will try it with the hsc paper for 2003 tonight

hehe j/k i'll try one from the last couple of years and post.

oh yeh. and people post the exam you did.

 

[Constip8edSkunk]

done '95-'02 so fay generally about 90-100... cept the 2000 one, where i got 73 hahahaha

i so feel ill crap out with stress in the actual exam though

 

[Rahul]

90-100, wow!

haha i just saw the last option. *freaking_out*

 

[underthesun]

You're still at the top of the standard deviation with 73, ;D

I sweare I punched the sofa because of too much stress on the 00 paper, I stopped at question 4 and went crazy..

Don't you get pissed when you do your exam and you come across a question that you know well, meaning that the exam is not "true"?

Yeh i know, i've only done the '94 exam, and i came across a few questions i'd seen before.

Can you recommend any good papers with a difficulty similar to that of the HSC?

 

[underthesun]

I might try that, only that I ran out of time to study maths.. since english is the first exam that there will be

Yeh i don't think i'll be doing much maths this week, i'm really starting to regret not having done anything for english all year.

But for maths we've still got wednesday through to sunday - plenty of time.

 

[underthesun]

That should be plenty enough for 3, or even 4 more mock exams. Will sleep, relax, meditate and stuff on sunday.

Anyways, we sure have confident people here in this forum. Maybe I should have put "I'm a nerd" instead of "baby" there

VCE specialist maths?
GCE A/AS levels?

though, from memory they have vector questions involving Dot product or cross product.

try:

http://www.cie.org.uk/CIE/WebSite/q...;+AS+Level+Mathematics+(Further)&typeoid=2208

it's the GCE A/AS further mathematics, will be a challenge

 

[underthesun]

If I recall, the bill pender thing has a list on really challenging papers. At the front, plus list of really good maths resources.

whoever voted 120/120, you started a trend

 

[blah]

That would be me

So, we have 4 medallists aiming high at the sky...

I don't know how many of them would be serious. It happens anytime a poll is posted, you always get the most votes for the highest option.

 

[Affinity]

weird.. that's defying the laws of probability..

we're assuming that people don't think when they vote, so the number of votes for each option should be approximately equal

 

[ND]

My assumption was that people just like to vote for the 'smartest' option. Like when there was that "rate your ability" poll, the option with the most votes was "10".
