    HSC Maths Exam Gets an F for Failing Our Students

    I think I'm healthy. Pretty sure. :) Well, I mean I don't feel stress cause I don't really see a point of stressing as that will only degrade your ability to think with a clear mind, so it doesn't really exist in my dictionary. (Kinda sounds like a nerd but: It reduces efficiency). Too late...

    HSC Maths Exam Gets an F for Failing Our Students

    Definitely agree with notme123 and idkkdi. (Didn't really wanna write up a whole ass essay to post so I didn't really cover many aspects in my first comment) To build on idkkdi's comments: I don't know if this is just me being depressed, edgy or just simply 'Asian parent' mindset, but I don't...

    HSC Maths Exam Gets an F for Failing Our Students

    From my experience, I can say that the tests did contain some difficult questions, but there were certainly a vast amount of simple questions (majority of MCQ and the first few questions of Section II) that would adequately allow every student to show that they have attained a satisfactory level...

    Does E12 course need to be the top preference?

    I'm pretty sure the application already closed a long time ago, but anyways you probably received an email yesterday I believe saying your application was already assessed and that you need to have your desired E12 course in your UAC preferences by the 3rd Nov to receive a conditional offer...

    Do you have to be good at math to do good in chemistry

    The hardest kind of math you will ever encounter is quadratic equations, which will occur in year 12 chemistry, which I'm pretty sure was taught in junior years, so shouldn't be too much of an issue even if you don't do maths as Masaken explained. Besides the quadratic part, those who don't do...

    is state rank still possible?

    I'm pretty sure my point (which I heard from a friend) was that for an MX2 student, you need to perform better than that of an MX1 student, if not match the supposed state rank raw mark for the position of state rank, to attain the state rank for MX1. I don't really understand how it could...

    is state rank still possible?

    Sorry, but could you state which part disadvantages them, I don't follow.

    is state rank still possible?

    I don't really know, I'm just repeating what I heard from my friend. But personally. I think it should actually apply both ways. Like if you do MX2, you should be better than MX1 students (not aggressive), so you should perform as well if not better. Vice versa, for MX2, if you are just putting...

    is state rank still possible?

    I don't know whether you can state rank or not (I don't know about the stats/numbers). However, besides your performance in the HSC test, you also need to consider: - Your internal rank (as it corresponds to an Assessment mark that accounts for 50% of your mark) - Whether you do MX2 or not...

    does anyone have any work experience suggestions?

    Ok, kinda makes sense now. Yeah, my school didn't offer that thing, at least my year didn't get offer it. (Typically you would sign yourself up/talk to the careers advisor yourself about the many job offers that the careers advisor emailed out).

    does anyone have any work experience suggestions?

    To my understanding: The thing is, as a high school student you won't be able to have access to all these fields you have listed, as they are all basically restricted/out of reach unless you have connections and you will probably not be doing anything important or that impactful to the daily...

    How does scaling work?

    Understood. Thanks for the explanation. Never would've thought of that, cause could never see my school spending money or effort into improving performance instead of the thousands of miscellaneous and non-beneficial trash that the principal splurges on (e.g. a big metal board thing hung up...

    What is the hardest Maths Extension 2 topic?

    There really isn't that much correlation between vectors in physics and mathematics, cause mathematics goes further in-depth and you are using more mathematical approaches rather than the formulas, which you would basically be deriving/attaining naturally when doing questions that are asking you...

    How does scaling work?

    @jimmysmith560 (Don't know why, but couldn't use 'Reply' cause of something containing a 'link' with my limit being 0? But anyways) If your school receives your HSC marks, can't they just calculate your ATAR? Similar to how people can use an ATAR calculator, or they could use aggregate/data to...

    4U & Advanced.... advice

    Oh, I thought you had 1 teacher allocated to your class that taught all 3, cause that's how my school works. Well then, there shouldn't be any problems then.

    4U & Advanced.... advice

    Welp. It's kind of hard to figure out the mindset behind questions going through a textbook. I don't know if there are videos online that go through each topic thoroughly, you'd have to have a look. It's gonna be much harder without this mindset and methodological process for breaking down...

    4U & Advanced.... advice

    I don't know how this works, or whether this is true across the board. But, MX1 and adv don't really seem like much at all if you do MX2 (at least from my school cohort's perspective). There are only like 2 (pretty sure) topics common between MX1 and MX2, vectors and integration, where the rest...

    University

    UNSW doesn't have an ATAR requirement. It typically has a cut-off selection rank of 90~91 (if I remember correctly), but anyways, you should be aiming higher than that to increase your chances of getting in (especially when the median entry selection rank is like 99+) *crying*. You can transfer...

    Unfair HSC Exam Schedules?

    You probably can't find anything because every person takes different subjects, and getting a sample size big enough to account for so-called "effects" would be quite hard/tedious work. But as @ExtremelyBoredUser said, and looking at the spread, it seems that the tests are spread to accommodate...
