Trebla/Carrotsticks organise a day where they conduct the trials in exam conditions
then they mark them all and give out results

then they post exams online with solutions
Where does the event usually get held?

Last year I sat for the MX2 paper. Got like 40/100 lol



It's done like 2-3 weeks before the real HSC exam starts
so the point of the exam is to mimic the actual hsc except 1000 times harder

Yes

It's also a good indicator about what marks people will get. Most of the time people who do these papers are guaranteed to get a band 6/E4 so it kinda tells you ninety-what you're gonna get. Sometimes.

Are they usually based on predictions on what will come up in 2-3 weeks time or are they based on just random questions which are 1000 times harder than the HSC

DO they make post trial ones?
What do you mean post-trial ones?

It's done 2-3 weeks before HSC like lee said
The point is it is to challenge you and basically be as hard as possible within the bounds of the syllabus
They do one a year
