With respect, I thoroughly disagree with this - doing this many past papers will wear you out very quickly, and won't actually help you learn. What is way more important is to learn from your mistakes and refine your skills - maybe do 1 past paper every 2 days. This way, you have time to do the...

First of all let me say that you are not stupid, dumb or useless – you’re a valuable person with your own unique abilities and talents. It sounds like for the past few years you’ve been mistreated and repressed by others around you – this is such a horrible experience to go through. You say that...

I can't remember exactly what paper it was, but it was a MC question which showed a shadow of a maltese cross, and basically said "a magnetic field is applied in X direction, what happens to the shadow"

This is what would be expected; however, I remember that a few months ago our teacher gave us a past paper with this exact question. I argued exactly what drsoccerball said. My teacher then pulled out a discharge tube with a maltese cross and actually did the experiment - and startlingly, the...

That feel when you're inspired to do heaps of study, but feel too unwell to fully concentrate on any school work. I guess I should just try and rest for the rest of the day and see how I feel tomorrow

+1 Do 2U (and maybe some 3U) in this upcoming break. Then, in the 6 week summer holidays, learn as much of the 4U course as you can. That's what I did: I learnt Conics, Graphs, Integration and Volumes well before the 2015 school year started. Then, over the next term or so I taught myself...

Yeah that's what I was thinking. Cheers for your help :D

Ah, thankyou so much, I see now. One final question: what is the reason for the 2C1 in Terry's solution? I understand all of his other working but I don't see what the 2C1 is there for

Could somebody please point out the flaw in my method for this question from Terry Lee? If it's hard to understand from the picture, my idea was to choose 1 ball from each colour set (hence [11C1]^4), and choose 2 more from any of the remaining 40.

Wasn't too bad I guess; question 8 was cool because the entire question led to a very simple but cool result

Just did 2010 4U HSC and got 93% raw, pretty stoked :D just hope I can keep it up until October, and that I don't get too nervous in the actual exam like I did last year

How are you making the transition from line 1 to 2?

re: HSC Chemistry Marathon Archive Cheers dude, that's super helpful :D

re: HSC Chemistry Marathon Archive I've only learnt the Solvay process recently, but I'll have a go: Importance Limestone (calcium carbonate, CaCO3) is an essential raw material for the production of sodium carbonate via the Solvay method. It is burnt/heated in a kiln in order to produce...
