    Mathematics Extension 1 Exam Predictions/Thoughts

    Man. I'm so disappointed with how I went in this paper. I wasn't able to complete 14ii, but I was able to finish everything else. However, the solution was so simple and I'm kicking myself that I didn't see it. Fuck, I honestly found the 4u paper easier.

    HSC Software Design and Development Exam Thoughts

    Easiness is subjective. I personally find the algorithms sections easier as there are no grey areas for your answers. If its correct, its correct. The longer response questions are a bit more off putting as there are many different ways to approach them. Furthermore, even though I got that...

    Anyone do Computer Science?

    Most people go into computer science not knowing how to code. Its actually the rarer exception that people do learn to code prior.

    Anyone do Computer Science?

    I learned to code by reading books and then writing programs to apply my knowledge. The book depends on what language you want to start out learning. I started with C, so I read "The C Programming Language" by Brian Kerninghan and Dennis Ritchie. However, Python is generally the more popular...

    Anyone do Computer Science?

    Yes. I've practised for these kinds of interviews myself. Best thing to do is to practise writing out algorithms to unseen questions on paper. Its a skill, like everything else.

    Maths Extension 2 predictions/thoughts?

    Last question was not too hard at all. Circle geo question combined with the sine rule. I solved it by showing that the compound angles are equal to angles in two different triangles. Using sine rule from there you can get the required relationship.

    Shit man. I nearly had a heart attack. Thanks for the estimates. I hope the Q16 for tomorrow's Ext. 2 will be fun. Something like that Polynomials question from 1994.

    Who did you hear this from? Math Ext 1 was the only easy trial. Physics and Chem were marked like Hitler. Papers were easy though, nothing conceptually hard. Damn if so my school is fucked.
