...Seeing as though I couldnt b bothered with anything - let alone Physics & special relativity... I assume that was an easier test RELATIVE to the observer of other physics exams... if a teacher can post the EXACT answers to multiple choice and even Q2Q... would b very grateful... after MC I am about 12-15 marks closer to a pass...

...P.S. I think anyone with NO knowledge of Physics could have aced MC with a bit of common sense... exaggeration but u kno... it seemed relatively easy... I'd b band 6 if I could have given a damn...

...peace

so what did everyone think of the test?
I though most of it was ok except for the totally unscrupuolous question on Michael Jordan and the plotting the planets around the sun, also there was a 6 mark question on solar cells which has been taken out of the syllabus 2 years ago!

The solar cell was just application of existing knowledge to an unfamiliar situation.

Some people didn't have that existing knowledge due to it's removal from the syllabus though.

The existing knowledge was the properties of P and N type semiconductors, and so far as I know that's still in the syllabus:)

So the fact that solar cells were removed from the syllabus 2 years ago, and they asked a question on solar cells is not a problem?

Now I'm no genius, but I would assume that if they remove something from the syllabus, then they aren't going to ask questions on it in the HSC exam.

it was all fine except a couple of the MC
jordan, planets around the sun, solar cell roundabout car and accelerator question in q2q.

i could easily have got full marks in all those, half marks or no marks...
and i hate that feeling

thats exactly how i feel, well maybe not full marks. I doubt it if there is a possibility of you getting full marks, you could get none, as the markers will see that you have knowledge of the course

i know i put the planet orbiting clockwise - which is wrong

for jordan i didn't focus on the 2.5s airtime, just on brains over braun
q2q - i bs'd the whole question

i dunno
its over and i really shouldn;t care
but i could have done better

Very nice, most of us are stuck with just the white bits of the paper. I have a huge collection of disjointed papers at home where you write on some of the parts with questions.
