I'm just guessing.. Full marks for 3U maths and maybe 95-97 for 4U (for state rank).

67/70 in MX1 would get you 98.

From what I can remember from previous years, it's usually full marks in 3 unit and around 95+% for 4 unit (prior to 2012 it was out of 120). Just keep in mind that both exams took on a new format in 2012, so there isnt much past data to do on. Also, the exact raw marks needed can vary slightly from year to year (even though they are relatively stable for MX1 and MX2).

What do i have to do to get over 95/100 in extension 2? Don't say just practice practice
i usually get full marks for MC and q 11 to 14 but i always lose many marks on q 15 and 16 (last two questions)
could you guys tell me tips on how to do well and what you did to achieve and such

It would be great help

thanks :)

I won't give advice for Maths as I wasn't very good at it...but I can say that you will need to at least understand all the ideas etc.

By the way, 96 in chemistry and physics *probably* won't get you a state rank.
