    What car will you get as your first car?

    Mazda 3's are alright..got my P's in one. Though personally I cant stand them, the clutch is too light, because it's a newer car the dash is fucking huge and they're just...too easy to drive (then again I can't stand most new cars...so that is most likely a major factor). Anyway, I wanted my...

    Information Techonology was a joke...

    If you go to the hsc.csu.edu.au website, and head to the Information Technology section, it defines that mission statement as almost exactly that question (from what I remember anyway...unless that was my own notes :S). So yeah, it was B. Edit: (from Wikipedia) First -> philosophy. Second ->...

    HSC students' maths paper 'cruel and difficult' (SMH)

    Eh..I skipped most of the circle geo 'cause I had a feeling I would run out of time if I didn't (glad I did, otherwise I would've had to rush Q7). I also fucked up the graphing pretty badly...so many silly mistakes :(. Back on topic: I don't think the paper was that bad...it just came down to...

    HSC students' maths paper 'cruel and difficult' (SMH)

    This. Most people at my school found it fairly difficult as well. Including some of the Extension 2 students (though they do have higher expectations of themselves...skipping 1 question = hard exam). Also whats with all the hate to Q5....imo Q4 was harder than 5.

    Re: Holy Fuckaroni I feel your pain. The sillies I made in Q 1-4...good lord. I'll be lucky to get mid 60's, when I was hoping for mid 70's.

    So I 'm not the only one who feels like a retard for screwing up that question. Those marks will scale high, last years E4 cut off for 3U was..56? and for 4U, well a 96 will go, easily mid-high 90's

    HSC students' maths paper 'cruel and difficult' (SMH)

    This. Most of the marks I will lose will be for silly mistakes...particularly in questions 1 to 4. Sitting down at home though, without the stress, well, I feel like an idiot for making those mistakes (and not going back in my last 5 minutes to check my work, where I rather decided to attempt...

    Q7 (a) Volumes 4 Marker --> will I get 4/4?

    Someone should probably reply to this lol. It looks fine imo, exactly the way I did it with the exception of my silly mistakes where, for some reason, my radius of 1-x suddenly became x in my integral for some odd reason...there goes 4 marks for me :(. Basically you note cylindrical shells...

    Rate the Difficulty

    Lol. I got more marks in 7, 6 and 5 (separately obviously) than I did in Q4...I dun goof'd. hard.

    General Thoughts: Mathematics Extension 1

    okay my solution to the next part...wish I thought like this under exam conditions -.- l = 0, V\rightarrow full\newline \therefore V = \frac{\pi }{3}h^3\newline \frac{7}{8}\cdot\frac{\pi}{3}h^3 = \frac{\pi}{3}(h^3-l^3)\newline l = \frac{h}{2}\newline \therefore \textrm{as } \frac{dV}{dt} =...
