  1. Q

    Early entry question

    Early entry tends to be quite lenient so don’t worry too much, but definitely don’t slack off.
  2. Q

    Not take Maths for HSC?

    Nope unless it’s quant it’s really not necessary. But as I said before, quants are usually math PhDs
  3. Q

    Not take Maths for HSC?

    If you’re talking about Quants who work in finance... you’re looking at math PhD+
  4. Q

    Not take Maths for HSC?

    Finance barely requires 2U knowledge and someone who did general maths can definitely get by. Where did you hear that finance as part of a commerce degree requires high level maths?
  5. Q

    Not take Maths for HSC?

    No.... definitely don’t require 4u knowledge for finance (unless you’re thinking about actuarial studies).
  6. Q

    Please Urgent Help Needed

    Alternately, if the polynomials are identically equal, they will yield the same function value for every value of x. You can then sub in certain values of x which may make the coefficients a bit easier to find.
  7. Q

    Can someone help me out with ranking in a two person class please??

    Is the upcoming assessment trials? Since it's probably a better reflection of your relative HSC performance compared to other tasks, you can probably expect to come 2nd in the hsc exam so you'll just get the mark you earn so no need to worry. If you do manage to beat the person coming first in...
  8. Q

    chance of getting early acceptance into university lmao

    Tbh unis are pretty happy to accept you for early entry as long as you’re living and breathing. I haven’t heard of anyone being rejected from early entry, although some have been offered a “lower” degree.
  9. Q

    Quick Combinatorics Question

    Easier example that might solidify things. 10 different books to be divided between 2 people. A person is allowed to have no books. Lets line up the books in a row (on a table perhaps): B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 B7 B8 B9 B10 They can either go to person A or person B. Let's just put person A on...
  10. Q

    Quick Combinatorics Question

    This is probably easiest to think of it in a not-so-intuitive way. Instead of the heirs picking the houses, the houses pick the heirs i.e. House 1 has a "choice" of being distributed to A, B or C House 2 has a "choice" of being distributed to A, B or C ... House 10 has a "choice" of being...
  11. Q

    Commerce/Business differences

    To answer the initial question, BCom vs BBus comes from the Dawkin's reforms in the 80s where non-university degree granting institutions were converted into universities (like modern day WSU and UTS). Older places maintained the BCom name whereas the newer ones used the BBus name. The name...

    Year 9 Agriculture Past Test Papers

    Hurlstone’s agriculture test is stimulus based not content based. It will be of little to no use learning the ag syllabus.
  13. Q

    Can you achieve a 95+ Atar, with good marks in General Math (And other Subjects below)?

    Lol not at the selective school I went to. Things like accelerating and 13 units makes timetabling very messy so it just didn’t happen haha. Accelerating is usually for ranking purposes - it can really boost a school’s “success rate” (percentage of band 6s)
  14. Q

    Transferring to UTS law

    A distinction average (75+ WAM) should cover it (which is a little bit high)
  15. Q

    tutors around my area?

    Uplift and NGO and Sons were pretty popular
  16. Q

    How hard to get 99.5+ ATAR?

    Sort of an irrelevant question unless you personally go to james ruse or 🍊 If you do go there, then you’d probably have better knowledge on the stats than us!
  17. Q

    Cosine rule question

    Hint: write out the cosine rule for this particular triangle, and then try to expand and move everything onto one side. You should now have a quadratic formula in terms of x - use the quadratic formula to solve for x.
  18. Q

    Help, should I drop maths or not

    Only for USyd which has the maths adv prereq. I will note that USyd does not offer a Arts/Commerce degree - instead, they have their suite of "Advanced Studies" 4 year degrees which allow you to major in 2 seperate faculties. So you could do a commerce major and an arts major under a BArts...
  19. Q

    Can someone help me out with ranking in a two person class please??

    Tbh since the gap between you is quite significant, both of you will just get your own respective marks (the case where she does worse than you in the HSC seems not super likely, but can happen). You won't be 'scaled down' because you are in last position nor scaled up since you are second...
  20. Q

    pronouns

    Nahh he/she is fine to me, I was referring to calling someone "they" if they don't use binary pronouns. The nature of the word 'they' encompasses everything so I don't understand the need for pronouns like "kitty" or "zey".
