4 unit is overrated for sure. I've heard students say "you gotta do pages of working out for 1 question", which made it sound intense, but when I started and finished the course, I only ever did 1 page of working out maximum, and it wasn't as hard as I expected it to be. So they pretty much...

Your ATAR aim would depend on what field you want to study at university. Eg. if you want to do medicine, you'll need to aim for at least 98-99, or if you want to do Engineering aim for at least 92-93, as the cut-offs can vary each year depending on the demand for a particular uni. UNSW is an...

Link any previous knowledge related to the topic you are studying. Also, research about it on the internet from different sources, if possible, until it clicks in for you. Then apply this knowledge by doing practice questions/past papers, maths in particular.

My favourites are the soldier and spy. Although spy is hard to play as there's always paranoid pyros spy checking around the place. Great game nonetheless.

I agree with Shadow - you need to know your basic graphs i.e. trig functions, quadratic, exponential, cubic, logarithmic, hyperbolic etc. If the graphing happens to be quite obscure, you can just plug in x values and form a pattern. Also take into account as the graph goes to infinity (x ->...

IPT is not really that hard of a subject, but in fact, it's considered one of the easier subjects. It's a great subject, and even though theres quite a bit of theory to learn, it is fun to learn and in some ways, relates to a bit of physics - such as binary representing voltage states. I'd...

Just to clarify, this isn't my channel. It belongs to Keplaffintech.

Hey all, here is a video compilation of what my friends and I have been doing at school the past year. Credits go to Keplaffintech for the video. Enjoy :lol: http://youtu.be/y34On7ZfwN0 Song is Give Me Some Ammunition by Bagelism.

You could do Maths. Extension 1 and English Extension 1, hence you have 14 units. Extension maths aligns and scales very well, that is if you perform quite well, and it would definitely help into getting into medicine.

I assume those are your raw marks - in which case I think you are meant to moderate and align them first, then average them out with your estimated aligned exam marks, and then enter the final result into the atar calculator.

Well, the 80% raw mark would be scaled, not the aligned mark. Advanced English had a scaled mean of 32.5 in 2010, so if you attained your 80 raw, it'll scale to 32.5/50 (65/100), which is pretty good compared to the scaling of many other subjects.

Raw mark is the mark that is attained after the exam has been marked; eg. you do say a 3 unit maths exam, and you get 63/84 - that is your raw mark. Now, this mark is not released to you. First the board of studies aligns the raw mark according to standards, so since 3 unit maths aligns very...

Wait, don't they scale the raw marks, not the aligned marks?

During our IPT exam, one of the supervisors went around and gave us all cookies. Was the best haha. Problem Cookie Monster?

Whoa dude! That is by far the most ridiculous question I've ever seen! Such an eyesore...

I reckon you're looking at 99.7-99.95

I'd probably get ~67/84. I was surprised, the exam seemed relatively easier than some of the past papers I had done, well that is for questions 1-5, and a bit of 6. My class thought the exam was pretty hard.

Fudging is where you do working out that can relate or not relate to a proof question, but proving it without proper reasoning, thereby skipping many steps, or writing persuasive garbage, and saying something like "hence a-b < a+b". This is probably commonly done in induction lol - especially...

Q1) You need to multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of 1-4i which is 1+4i; so:1+4i/(1+4i)(1-4i) = 1+4i/1+16 = (1+4i)/17 Q2) You can either express it as a sum of two cubes, or just expand them both as is: (2-3i)^3 = 8-36i+54i^2 -27i^3 = 8-36i-54+27i = 62-63i...

According to Shadowdude's mark, yes 59/120 aligns to 83 - but that was last year. Aligning could slightly change this year, so I'd say 50/120 aligns to ~78-81. Could be wrong.
