How'd everyone go?
Thoughts on the exam?

Personally thought the exam was fair, pretty much what I expected from CSSA really.
Multiple choice was fairly standard, 11 and 12 were also fairly easy. Q13 was decent.
Q14 was also decent, although I'm fairly sure I cooked the sum of series question

Any interesting/ left field questions or results?

Honestly, not really. Most of it was really quite standard to be honest. From what I've seen of CSSA it was probably on par or a little harder than average?
There was nothing really overwhelmingly difficult, just 1 or 2 things I hadn't done enough of.
Surprisingly the Projectile question was quite simple, and only worth 4 marks.

Questions were pretty good in my opinion - but I ran out of time. I had to cut my losses and just try and get as many marks as I could from throughout the paper.

Yeah for sure, I ran out of time on Q14. Got the projectile out but ran out on the sum question and think I probably wouldve lost a couple of marks for rushing through Q13 I think. With another 15 minutes I think I wouldve been very confident Haha

Pretty happy tbh, got 58/70 (83%)
Dropped a few dumb marks here and there, but overall not too bad.
Thoughts on the difficulty compared to previous years, and where 58/70 on this puts me roughly?

just curious but what rank is your school ? (i'm assuming its at least top 100 if 83% isn't the highest mark in your cohort)

Yeah mine was the top of our class Haha. And no, I wish I went to a top 100 school Haha.
My schools rank fluctuates between 250-300 normally :/
