Right. Well I meant what you said about just 'doing a couple of other elective questions for extra marks'. AHahaha doesn't really seem really legitimately that'd you'd be expecting state rank. But hey, if you do then congrats and well done?

Again with people overestimating the state. Your school might have found it straight forward.. I was personally thrown off by a few of the longer questions and stupid things like flow charts (really?) so yeah, I think it'll be difficult to estimate but don't get too sure of yourself. I thought...

Erm, I'm not quite sure it works like that...? Troll?

I put D for question 12.. I suppose I was weighing up "is alphabetical more important, or the order of the numbers in the full name".. I went with D because it was most like what I'd thought I was MEANT to be, and B was what I was comparing it to... Eugh, I don't know. Multiple choice murdered...

Holy shit balls, you literally just made me start crying. Jesus, not funny.. Unless they are actually right and I'm screwed? Far ooouttt, what even?

I got this result, with 6451.6 and couldn't figure out what I had done wrong, even though that was a ludicrous answer.. So I crossed it and just..rambled. Got it wrong, obviously =/ Hummf. Oh well.. One more exam

Yeah, I wasn't disputing that... But delta Y isn't the maximum y value? It's just the change in Y. I didn't think you could assume that the point of impact was the center of the parabola.

10 booklets? As in 30 pages? No way, that's insane. How big is your writing? I was happy enough at getting out 10 pages, with me small handwriting.

Who else did Language and Gender? The question was so loooong, and had a few concepts to consider, but it was a fairly standard response overall. Creative was fairly simple too, though I suck at creatives regardless of what the stimulus is like. What did everyone thing of the L&G essay though?

I suppose my low/realistic/pessimistic expectations (call it what you want) means I'm happy with the paper. But it wasn't 'easy'. Ext maths isn't easy, at all. Despite not going great by any means, I'm ok. I jsut don't want people reading to think 'I'm the only one who struggles", "I'm going to...

Not at all, thanks. I feel like anyone who feels the need to over simplify the ease of the exam doesn't understand the diversity of Maths students in NSW. Even in the Ext. cohort.

Thank you. It's frustrating hearing over and over again how easy the exam was, as they completely disregard the fact that not everyone find ext maths abundantly easy, and nor does the entire state have access to fantastic teachers or tutors, let alone a high ranking school to begin with. Despite...

Thanks for the reassurance. Reading these forums is sometimes akin to self-torture for me. Not a single person at my school does 4U, and my school usually gets around 40 band sixes, across the board, added up from every student, each year. Most people in my class, with maybe 3 really strong...

I'm guessing I'm just going to jump out on a limb and represent some of the less sure, non-4U students, from low ranked, rural schools and say that while the paper appeared easy for many, the majority of people here are extremely competent students. You guys are, in general, the top kind of...

I understand that, but why is the depth 0.4? It says the river is 12m wide, so shouldn't the volume at any single moment of the cross section be the area found by the Simpsons rule x 12m. And then you times by 0.4 x 10? Sorry I can't can't seem to understand how and it's really bugging me that...

Can someone explain, without snide comments or stupidly saying LOL,why the area didn't need to be multiplied by 12 to find the volume? I did it without multiplying by 12, then crossed it and did it again the other way. I'm literally kicking myself here. I was aiming for a raw mark around 90, and...
