I can't imagine them not, I think if they did it would be an "Evaluate the understanding shift" kind of question. Excellent topic for it, incorporates everything we study :)

+1 Same with poetry, hardly anyone in my year focussed on Among School Children for Yeats, and at the end of the day those who were lucky enough to focus on it are going to fair better than those who didn't. Also, perhaps instead of the BoS setting 7 poems for study, or however many speeches...

Nothing haha, it's better to be an all rounder than just focus on maths. I THINK, not 100%, just what I have been told haha

Oh really? That's good news, honestly was pretty devastated walking out but yeah, think im sitting on about 72. Would you happen to have an idea of ~90 in the 4 unit? Maybe a bit less, like 85

So around 72 / 84 is about a 93 HSC??

Ah some questions were different (weird) and the test was really long, thus was hard. Well relatively harder than past papers from the last few years, same time problems as 2006, just not quite as hard. Maths is over though! Until engineering yewyew

Oh god, i thought so, did it earlier and had no idea what it was asking, even the solutions unclear. Cheers for clearing that up haha

exactly the same haha, lots of bs answers especially for 8 so probably 80+ arg, all that effort just to get shattered during reading time

when you did it could you just assume it? is that what it meant, so then you proved triangles congruent etc?? or did you have to prove the property haha

I thought overall quite a bit harder than previous years bar 2003, personally. Found the mechanics resisted motion question in 6 to be the hardest in the paper besides 8, could not get close to b). But idk, we will see, hopefully got an e4

Re: paper I found that exam very hard personally, did not have time to attempt 7 or 8 properly But i guess overall the only difficult parts were the mechanics, mostly conics was easy, the volumes were easy and integration was easy. Did anyone get 6.b) or c) ??? LOLWUT

hahah what, every thread i have read you say you are averaging 100+ in past papers though i guess definitions of a bad mark range from person to person.. to OP, just do your best tomorrow, write something down for every question and you should scrape that e4, the knowledge will come back to...

This is random but could you actually run through 2009 8. a) ii) for me? I don't understand the working in my solutions book. If it's too much to type don't worry though :P

You think if all of a sudden the BoS has an appeal pending for a kid bitten by a black house spider that they wont have seen a thread JUST like this on Bored of Studies? Seriously, you didn't really think this out at all. Btw, man up, its not the end of the world, there are other path ways +...

wish i could nail a 4unit exam like that, im coming first at my school and averaging like 90-ish except 2007, got 101 hehe yew ah keen to verse all you guys :|

ABED yes + I have same MX2 and chem rank as you hehehe

selling mine + passing on to siblings

Yeah i'm doing Yeats as well, i have prepared for Wild swans, Among and Leda well, i pretty much know Second coming and when you are old, and easter and airmen can beat it lol But the point of the exam, as the BoS puts it, is to reveal the work and effort you put in, not allow someone to get...

wow, I studied for weeks before mine, with practice essays and everything and got in the 80's jesus christ

We had a fire alarm in the very middle which lasted about 5 minutes, the repercussions resulting in 5 minutes of confusion and 5 minutes lost train of thought. Lucky we get a whole school misadventure, seeing as my last essay paragraph was half the size of the others :/ Overall though a fairly...
