Maths Extension 1 Predictions/Thoughts (10 Viewers)

[coolcat6778]

Are you able to actually confirm the instruction explicitly/officially comes from NESA first hand (not by deduction/speculation) and not someone else? My view is informed by a particular recent experience on this site (not going to say it explicitly but you can read between the lines). I’m still skeptical as it just doesn’t add up for me.

The schools that are licensed to administer the HSC overseas are all within 3 hours of the NSW timezone.

Also, there are controls in place for it according to this:

The students sitting the HSC in Singapore

At the same time as more than 70,000 year 12 students are completing their first English papers in exam rooms around NSW, about 60 students will be doing the same paper in Singapore.

bro who would want to put up with mandatory English. Singapores do A Level by default, why would they want to do trash HSC

if you want more info about it i suggest u contact the secretary of mansw.

initial knowledge of embargo originated with her.

at the time hardly anyone knew about it

now a lot more people know about it

but what perplexes me about it is why does it seem to only apply to maths? why haven’t we heard about it for other subjects?

i find it hard to believe students in other countries who do the hsc only do maths.

because a math leak is easy to take advantage of. like even if u get the hsc english question a day early, thats not gonna do anything if u cant write in the first place

does anyone know what the e4 cut off was last year?

does anyone know what the e4 cut off was last year?

52/70

52/70

this year’s would probably be 50 then

the projectile motion question is a physics question asked in the WACE lol

 

[eternallyboreduser]

Wait guys for the q where it was like dy/dx = 5/y i left my andwer as y=plus (the eqn), i wrotr the minus case first and gave the justification cos when x=0, y<0 but i crossrd it out and put just the positive versioj cos i was thinkijg that like since 16 = 4^2 then sqrt of 4^2 will be absolute of 4 so it can be -4, will i lose a mark?

Nooo that question cooked me and usually I do well at projectile motion
I derived displacement formulas at least?

proof hsc physics wasn't challenging enough. i did this question before with physics formulas. what i did differently today was derive the physics formulas as we had to

Nah like 51 imo

any solutions out for mx1?

 

[coolcat6778]

This ATAR question was so difficult, the average WA student scored just 35 per cent

Mathematics expert and lecturer at Murdoch University Dr Brendan Florio said it was a “discriminator question” that set the top students apart.

I only did this question before cause I wanted to see if I could do it (i could) as it made news in WA as the hardest question in their physics exam

smo pls

 

[sonny_angel520]

im actually emo i calculated a 47/70 just now

was student number printed on each writing booklet like q11,12,13,14??

on each quetsion booklet but not spares though

okay cool, didn’t have spares
thank you i was panicking

nesa knows that students are having a stressful time, even if you messed your number up or missed it they wouldn't let something like that get through most likely

What raw mark do you reckon would give 80 or 90 aligned this year
