Hi all,
The results are finally here!
Unfortunately, nobody scored above 70% as per the challenge. The highest score was 65/100, a very good effort! Well done to that individual.
Thank you all for attending. It was a difficult exam and a huge challenge for all. I'd like to congratulate each and every one of you for having the the guts to attempt this paper, knowing what you were in for, well done =) This exam is very difficult and it is to separate the creamiest from the cream of the crop. To show you what I mean, students scoring ~20% raw last year scored an E4, so this exam is to separate all the E4's from each other, from low E4 to 1st in the State potentially.
The solutions, marking criteria and markers comments will be released by the end of this weekend for you all to read.
Once again, thank you all for sitting the paper and well done for giving your best shot at the exam, which is what matters most.
If you wish to receive your results or your friends', please PM me asking for them and I will tell you which position you were in, to see your raw mark breakdown.
One major thing that I noticed when marking these is that a lot of responses had a LOT of working out, but it was often based on incorrect assumptions or incorrect understanding of properties, thus scoring zero.
Again, here is a copy of the paper if you are interested in seeing it. Please note that this is slightly different to the printed ones on the exam day, as we've corrected some typos in there.
Extension 2 Examination.
For those wishing to attempt in 2015, please feel free to message me on these forums next year early October!
Good luck all for your HSC Examinations =)
