    Are lectures at MQ mandatory to attend?

    Thank you! I do want to say again though that if I was able to put lectures in the times where I'm available, I would attend them no question. But since I have most of my lectures at a really bad time it's just not possible to attend.

    Are lectures at MQ mandatory to attend?

    I'll be doing Commerce with a major in Finance (for the moment) as I want to transfer into Actuarial studies/Finance. Thanks for the advice, I'll take it under consideration.

    Are lectures at MQ mandatory to attend?

    Got accepted into MQ and a lot of the early morning classes are gone (no surprise), so I've had to place some of my lectures at inconvenient times for myself. So is it compulsory to attend lectures? I know that MQ records their lectures so I can catch up on whatever I've missed. Any help on this...

    Doing past papers by topic all in one go or spread over the year?

    Yes. No more inequality induction hey? It barely showed up anyways...

    Doing past papers by topic all in one go or spread over the year?

    Try and do at least 3 induction questions a week, one summation type, one divisibility type and one inequality type to make sure you don't get rusty. Try and find any trial hsc papers from the past 10 or so years, they usually have at least one induction question in them.

    ARC NESA Band 5/6 Responses

    I think that ARC NESA mixes both band 5 and band 6 responses, but you should still be able to spot the difference between the two. Band 6 responses will have more detail and clearer explanations than band 5 responses. As always though, couple the sample answers with the marking criteria to see...

    I see, thanks. Yeah, that won't be a concern...

    Also, can someone explain the effect of your MX2 mark on your MX1 mark. Because if you do MX2 your MX1 goes to 2 units, so does that mean double the scaling?

    Bro. Relax. You're still getting an E4.

    Mathematics Extension 1 Exam Predictions/Thoughts

    Should be. I think I said something about y=x^2 having one real root and then because y=1/x-k has no real roots, if you simultaneously solve, the result should have one real root. Idk if this is true though...

    Mathematics Extension 1 Exam Predictions/Thoughts

    (i) Discriminant: b^2 - 4ac = 0 means one real solution. (ii) Then used the fact that x_1 had a different sign to x_2 to prove the inequality. However, I doubt that this is the correct way to go about it - we'll see I guess...

    What does everyone think the Crime and Option Essays could be tomorrow?

    Btw did anyone else use Implicit Differentiation for the rates question?

    Maybe 50/70, I really don't know. I'm Disappointed.

    Mathematics Extension 1 Exam Predictions/Thoughts

    I was reading on here that NESA has to examine everything in the syllabus in the span of 5 years. Is this true? They may pull another MX2-like scenario on us tomorrow (putting in an MX2 Projectile question when it hadn't been in the HSC before).

    Yeah that's something I completely skipped over ngl.

    Mathematics Extension 1 Exam Predictions/Thoughts

    I would imagine so, I mean it is towards the end of the paper and people would come across it with say 20 mins left and get frustrated because they don't know how to proceed e.g. the results involving the inequality signs. Feel free to look at statistics and tell us what you find, most of 3U...

    Mathematics Extension 1 Exam Predictions/Thoughts

    Wishful thinking, but it's highly unlikely. NESA most likely does that because the state usually performs quite poorly in Projectile Questions (or at least the later parts of the problems).

    Square root of complex numbers... I need... help...

    - This should hopefully help

    What papers have you done? If you have run out try some Sydney Grammar Papers (2012-2018) as they are around the same difficulty of the MX1 HSC.
