Hey guys how was your Engineering trial? I believe some of us have already finished :uhhuh:

 

[Triple777ER]

We had ours today, 15th August. It was an independent trial exam. It was fair

How many drawing questions did you have? cause i detest drawings

 

[Triple777ER]

We had 2 drawing questions, one was worth 3marks and the other 4marks.
Our teacher just asked us to do a freehand, we will be concentrating more on drawing after the trials .

How many did you have?

 

[xceler8]

We had the same amount and they were alright. Our one had alot of theory based questions though.

my trial is one friday but it has 0% weighting so dont really care wat i get

 

[ChockoRepublic]

do you need to be strong at maths to be able to do engineering studies?

my trial is one friday but it has 0% weighting so dont really care wat i get

Wow 0% weigting? How come?

The math stuff are pretty easy in engineering studies. You don't really have to be good at math. They are all basic stuff from year 10. But may get abit diffult but not as hard as hsc maths.

And triple what was your report question?

 

[Triple777ER]

i think concrete and bridges was the report ours was based on. Did you get your marks back?

 

[xceler8]

nope. maybe in 2 weeks time. have you got yours back?

 

[Triple777ER]

Nope, we will get our marks back soon, but the papers aren't going to be handed out until 29th because of some 'cool down' period, so as not to share information to others doing trials.

 

[xceler8]

Ohh k. Has anyone else finished their trials? Seems like it's only two of us -_-

 

[a.Limjoco]

do you need to be strong at maths to be able to do engineering studies?

i always thought so... but as i can tell so far, not have to be strong in maths for HSC level. dont get me wrong u have to be decent cause its applied math, but im guessing in UNI they will rape us .

im 3u math so my math gives me an edge against my class

 

[Triple777ER]

we have 4 people in our class
We got our results back, got 63% for trials, which i am not satisfied with.
Its extremely difficult to get 80 in this subject.
Time to look for an engineering tutor

 

[nathanraman]

i just got my trial results bak

:angry: so angry at meself... got 65% n i got 3rd or 4th out of 9....

if i dnt improve by hsc,

beta say bye 2 engineering degree

 

[xceler8]

which trial paper did you do nathan? and yes it is pretty difficult to get high marks in this course.

 

[nathanraman]

im not sure, but i fink it was sum independent

i go to a school out in dubbo and the paper was bought in

one question was about the process of precipitation hardening... maybe if u may recall...

i ended up wif 68% coz teacher missed a few marks, though still upset wif my result

just gotta try harder i guess

btw...xceler8....not to be rude or anyfin

GO THE MIGHTY DRAGONS!

hahaha

sorry just had to
