    When does trials start at your school?

    I'm looking at the school calendar and there's at least one subject that has a hand-in task after week 6. On the other hand, maybe they meant the major works submissions (eg English Extension 2) to BOS or something.

    When does trials start at your school?

    Do you mean the last exam other than trials? About week 9 last term. I still have 2 more smaller tasks after the trials which weighs about 5-15% around week 5

    Physics Trials

    Do you already have your notes ready? If not, definitely grab someone else's notes considering your test is in 2 days. If you are struggling to write some answers, I would recommend try reading sample answers from your HSC past paper book. Obviously it's better to do some past papers too, so...

    HSC Physics Marathon 2016

    Well I think the textbooks say it's 23h56m. I think the better way of asking the question was if it's better to use the exact or 24h. Some schools can be very pedantic about stuff like these and of the marking criteria says no then there's no point arguing haha!

    HSC Physics Marathon 2016

    Quick question: There's a question that needs to use the Earth's orbital period. I used the orbital period of 23h56mins (converted to seconds), however the sample answer used 24h. Would I lose a mark? Because Earth's orbital period is actually 23h56mins?

    QATS 2015 Trials Answers

    I see what you mean haha. Yeah, for sure the answers are wrong. Also for question 12 I don't think they even have the right answer... they probably mixed up MPC and MPS. Bad experiences with QATs lol, at least for Physics. I will send you a PM for my answers.

    Re: HSC 2016 3U Marathon Could someone please explain why I'm getting a negative answer when I use cosine in the following SHM? When I use sine, the answer is correct.

    Yeah actually thought of this before, here's a good explaination from the good old internet that seems to make sense:

    ATAR Estimate - can I get 95+?

    Thank you :) Seems a bit high for my current ranks lol :P

    ATAR Estimate - can I get 95+?

    School rank is ~55. I'd say we have a strong cohort this year. Hoping to get about 95, hoping for 96.5 for Co-op. The number in the bracket is the Band 6's in 2015. English Advanced: rank 39/161 (55) Maths 2U: rank 10/157 (39) Maths 3U: rank 21/70 (31) Chemistry: rank 43/111 (19) (nb. heavily...

    How do I know if it is safe to stop at a yellow light?

    Also make sure 5 seconds or so before you pass the traffic lights, look at the rear mirrors to see if anyone is behind you. This is so if the lights turn yellow, you can brake safely depending on how far the car is behind you. If someone is tailgating you then you should continue to proceed at...

    Re: HSC 2016 3U Marathon Can someone explain why they divided by 5 or 4 in the denominator? I'm having a mind blank here. (Or is this because it's combinations, because I haven't really learned much of that yet?)

    Re: HSC 2016 3U Marathon It's probably because it's supposed to be a permutations question. EDIT. lemme rethink this lol
