Bump! Mikasa provides incredibly detailed, helpful feedback to boost your English performance. Don't miss out!

Hey there, I'm lpodtouch! :) I'm currently doing MX2, English Advanced (dropping Extension), Modern History, Economics and Chemistry. Not sure of my aspirations as of yet... good luck everyone! :)

I have to handwrite my notes despite the convenience of typing. Mainly because after the prelim yearlies, my handwriting was far from legible :(

C? All the other options would increase protection for the domestic industry.

The Trade Weighted Index refers to an index which measures the value of the AUD against a basket of foreign currencies; comparing the exchange rate against the nation's trading competitors.

Whoa 13 units - I feel a bit iffy in carrying 12 units.

How many marks are allocated to the question?

I think that was in the Preliminary course in the second module (Consumers and Business) in depicting economies of scale. Upon a firm's expansion, multiple benefits accrue in manipulating 'internal economies of scale' (i.e. improving their efficiency/productive capacity in lowering production...

Definitely review over year 11 polynomials - past HSC exams cover both prelim + HSC content. Reviewing over year 11 polynomials shouldn't take too long. It's mainly just factor theorem, remainder theorem, graphing, long division, finding their zeroes, in correlation with their geometry. It...

As rumbleroar stated, follow the one sufficiently elaborated technique per mark, providing linkage toward the question in fulfilling the criteria of a two mark question. Otherwise, you're imprudently allotting your time given how you will have to answer the onslaught of three markers...

Nope. One of my friends has decided to do 14 units, picking up 4u maths. Good thing it's provisional because I'm not sure how he or anyone would cope. :/

Always thought the Asian Five comprised of the Sciences + High Levels of Maths Wasn't sure about Eco though :/

I probably would've done the Asian Five (Maths, Bio, Chem, Physics, Economics), but instead opted for English Extension and MH :/ I regret not picking physics though.

1. First you have to write out a balanced chemical equation: Ba(NO3)2 (aq) + (NH4)2SO4 (aq) -> BaSO4 (s) + 2NH4NO3 (aq) 2. Given that the mass of BaSO4 is 1.15g, you are able to calculate the moles utilising the equation that n = m/M n = 1.15/molar mass of BaSO4 (don't have a...

The first sentence should clearly (and succinctly) define what externalities are ('Externalities refer to the cost/benefits associated with the production/consumption of a good/service...'). The rest of the question should be delegated into outlining and ergo explaining the positive/negative...

If I were in your circumstance, I would drop down to 10-12 units at least. It must be stressed that if you maintain the excess four units, they will not count toward your ATAR. Despite how pertinacious you are, the time allotted to those four units could be appropriately delegated to other...

I'd have to agree with you on this one - 13 units is quite frankly superfluous. However, given your circumstances, I would suggest utilising the first few weeks of Year 12 to experiment as to which courses you enjoy/dislike (as prelim and HSC can differ quite vastly). If you're still...

Yeah factor theorem is applicable to integer zeroes (however upon substituting sqrt5 and -sqrt5 = 0) It would preferable to just expand the polynomial and long divide to receive P(x) = (x+2)(x^2-5) then factorise accordingly.

Considering how it is a monic cubic polynomial (upon finding the leading term), you can quicken the process of finding the roots through looking for the factors of the constant term (of the polynomial) In this case it is -10 upon multiplication Considering how we have found x+2 is a zero for...

You use factor theorem to ensure whether it is either 1 or -1 Considering how P(1) = (1-2)(1+3)(1+1) -4 = -12 and P(-1) = (-1-2)(-1-3)(-1+1) - 4 = -4 You use the sqrts of 5 instead I just skipped that step because it was quicker to deduce. In future...
