For sciences, it's key that you learn the 9.1 outcomes - what you need to put into prac responses is fairly predictable once you know these, yet so many people ignore 9.1

Do you have answers? want to be sure before posting

Hey Peter, yeah - mid to high 80s, you just need 3 more marks for a state rank ;)

Aiming for bachelor of science (advanced mathematics) at USYD (last year's cut off was 98.35) - would be happy with ~98.35 but I'm aiming for 99.95 to motivate me to study

School rank - 91 to 110 English standard - 7/99 (The top end of our english cohort is really strong - average was 60% ish in trials while people were achieving 95%+) Chem - 1/26 MX1 - 1/16 Mx2 - 2/5 Physics - 3/23 Also, is it impossible for me to achieve an ATAR of 99.95?

I thought like ~70% in 3u (57/84) aligned to ~90

Ok - averaging around 75-80% raw atm. Just need to focus on harder 3u (Cambridge didn't really cover it well). Losing like 15+ marks a test on just that.

I did every question of Cambridge before I moved on to past papers - not sure on the length of other textbooks though.

That makes sense, made the mistake of not cancelling m out in my trial when the final answer had no m - didn't even think to go back to change it. Wont make that mistake again :), thanks.

Ah, yeah, would you have to specify that k incorporates both a constant as well as the mass though?

I think he means how resistance is sometimes mkv^2 or mkv versus kv^2 or kv.

71/100 - didn't get to study much, so somewhat happy and disappointed.

Not bringing the 2 out made it harder - it wasn't a trigonometric identity because of it. I'm not sure if I'm going to rank first overall anyway, but I might appeal to make sure.

SHM question, in the form Acos(2t+a) where you have to find A and a given a velocity at t = 0 as well as displacement at t = 0. I didn't bring out the 2 at the start when deriving velocity. Part 2 involved figuring out the time at a given displacement. In total it was out of 5, i received 1/5...

I only spend ~3-6 hours a week on MX2, and it's helped me dramatically in all other subjects (besides english obviously).

Can't you just find m using what you said in your other post, then inspect the graph and state if m is less than or greater than that.

It's more the fact that we will be getting marked against advanced rather than just standard. And I didn't link to the question too well in the first two paragraphs of my response.

Yeah, section 3 paper 1 is the only thing I'm not confident for - will just take on the feedback I get from trials to improve my belonging essay I guess.

Would you recommend memorizing essays to increase sophistication/vocab - I've started to do it and noticed the flow of my essays is improving. Those raw marks put it into perspective though - doesn't seem impossible to get a band 6 external.

Ah, thanks. Will just keep practicing what I'm doing then :).
