All mathematics is, is formula's and applying them

Yeah, 2U maybe. 4U is a little different to that - it's actually beginning to start on some real maths.

But practically all maths can be done through being able to appply formula's correctly, i agree 4U some won't, but basically it applies for all maths

Re: Band E4

Have you looked at 4U HSC exams / Uni maths?

Guessing not.

Re: Band E4

Then you'll know maths ain't all formulas. Esp in 4U.

4 Unit is being able to understand where stuff comes from. Deriving and understanding it rather than memorising.

Re: Band E4

Real maths doesn't work on formulas. It works on concepts and being able to understand those concepts, manipulate what's in front of you and come up with a tangible solution.

What are the cut offs for an e3 and e4 for hsc marks? I forgot is it 40-45/50 and 45+/50?

Re: Band E4

pretty easy if you can drill every formula need in your head.

Basically once you memorize every formula and can apply properly you'll get the band

+ understanding. That perhaps is more important than both of them combined IMO

You'd need about 45/120 in MX2 for an E3

 

[hscishard]

Not raw marks, but the final hsc mark. If that is the final hsc mark then i'll be going "what the fuck"

 

[Aquawhite]

Oh, MX2 E3 is 75/100, yeah?

 

[hscishard]

Hmmm, what do you think an E4 is?

 

[Aquawhite]

E4 is 90/100 aligned and about 75/120 raw.

Especially in Conics where its like "Prove that...." at the start of every question.

They're the kind of questions I liked.

This exactly.

Re: Band E4
