Predictions for Maths Standard 2 exam? (2 Viewers)

[katiekms]

I have a feeling this year is gonna be really hard because last years exam had so many tied firsts… I hope I’m wrong though. From what i’ve seen, one year there'll be heaps of ties and the next there’ll only be a few people who got first, because they’re trying to fix how hard/easy the exam was. Let’s just hope they keep it pretty easy

the thing is with math standard and 2u is that a lot of people will always get the same top mark. it's not worth it for NESA to focus on distinguish the minority of state rankers; they focus more on differentiating bands i'm pretty sure

trueee, but i guess even with that last years exam was much easier compared to others like the 2020. what do you mean by the first bit?

a fair few people get 100 raw so it's moreso awarded based off working out (and other math subjects apparently?)

ahh i see. so i was right about the working out, i said that earlier and got bashed for it bc they didn’t believe me im wondering how the other math subjects thing would work for standard or anyone who doesn’t do any other math

Not really, from all of the years till now there has only been consistently 2 people tied for rank 1

Check the spreadsheets on here:

HSC merit lists

The merit lists celebrate the outstanding achievements of students in the HSC. Learn about each award and where to view the current and previous years' HSC merit lists.

www.nsw.gov.au

They all only have 2 and 1 tied for equal first place in maths standard

Main exception was last year
