    good idea for xtra marks

    Yeah um good luck with that. Let me know how it goes, give me a call from UWS. BoS may be assholes sometimes, but they aren't stupid.

    Thoughts on raw mark needed for an E4

    Wow!! That makes me feel 100x better about my shocking estimate of around 40/84. (47.6%). So I guess I'm better than average, somehow. Just goes to show that the people here at BoS are much smarter than the average NSW-student lol.

    Rollercoaster Q WTF?

    Lol I didnt even think it was -b/2a. That didnt come to mind at all xD I differentiated to find the stationary point, found out what x was, and then y at the peak. I also found out the y value of P, by subbing in x = 30 into the equation. then... .:. d = (y value of peak) - (y value of P) =7.2...

    Thoughts on raw mark needed for an E4

    Me too, but bloody unlikely!! lol! Exactly the same here. Except I think I'll get a 40 maximum. Jeez, if thats the case I may get an E4... lmao Well if I got 40 raw (approx) then that should translate to... 35/50! I'm happy with that!! sweet!

    Can someone post up the paper?

    I don't do Ext 2 maths, and I got the induction question. Dont know if its part of the syllabus, but I've definately been asked 'miscellaneous' induction questions before. It was the only part of question 7 answered...lol

    How many marks have you dropped?

    I liked that test! It was easier than I thought. I really suck at Extension Maths, so I'm hoping for around 40/84. It was easier than other years where I normally get less than that. I think I got the first 3 questions mostly right, then flunked it from there :) (I'm no good at complex...

    General Thoughts: Mathematics

    If that equals 125/216 I will be incredibly happy - there's a bonus 2 marks I didnt think I'd get! ..87/120 ftw :D

    band cut offs

    Re: Would this be enough for a band 5? What do you real smart maths geniuses think an 85/120 would gain? I'm thinkin.....85/120 = 88% ?

    What mark do you think you'll get

    The only thing that gives me hope is the fact that I keep remembering that everyone here at BoS is better than average

    Q5 c)i)1)

    FUCK. I read the question wrong. I just found the length of the arc AB, not the perimeter of the minor segment. GRR

    band cut offs

    Re: Band 6 Raw? That would be awesome, but I doubt it. We would be lucky if anything in the 80's made it to a band 6.

    Rollercoaster Q WTF?

    Woo! So happy I got that 100% right. It looked tricky at first, but it was an easy question. a = - 0.05 b = 1.2 d = 16.2 yippie!

    Answer to q10 f?

    N/A Lol. Sigh.
  16. T

    What mark do you think you'll get

    85/120 (raw) That was a hard test IMO. The last few past papers I did yesterday, I was averaging 98/120. It looked like my kind of paper though, no really confusing questions. Just solid 'here's what you need to do, figure it out!' Wish I had more time to fully complete Q10.

    SOR I - Section 3! YOUR THOUGHTS

    Before an exam is approved and printed, an experienced teacher of that subject ‘sits’ the paper to check it can be completed in the time allowed. The teacher also comments on how well the paper covers the syllabus and whether the language is clear. Whoever had this job should be fired

    SOR I - Section 3! YOUR THOUGHTS

    Pretty sure it was Reconciliation, (between Aboriginals and the Church) as this is a syllabus dot point. Also, the cross in the middle also signified the church, and the Australia had dots around it, showing it was Aboriginal.....so yeah that was my conclusion. Couldn't have been much else anyway.

    If you hate English, you must post here in celebration

    With the exceptionally low ATAR I'll receive, I guess I'll have to change my career path. I think I might be a cheesemaker. :)
