    HSC Extension 2 Mathematics Predictions / Thoughts

    The BOS trials had many vector plane questions that required a solid understanding of the content. I've seen similar q's in trials my teacher supplied and the independent one. I'd say those are worth looking at. Question 15 of the bored of studies trials (guided proof of normal dist) is not...

    hey guys does anyone know any good math tutoring places that focus on exams type question.

    I'd highly recommend Al Jabr. The guy that teaches there really knows his stuff; and he's a sick cunt. It's a grind but totally worth checking out.

    Places to find harder proofs questions (~extracurricular/olympiad type)

    you let m be the interger solution, then equate to 4. Chuck a prime decomposition onto 4 and you get +/-(2,1) what each bracket is. Solve for m and you get your answer.

    Places to find harder proofs questions (~extracurricular/olympiad type)

    I just finished doing my trials and came across a few interesting/uncommon kinds of questions that aren't found in your standard textbook (cambridge/terry lee). An example of this would be the following: Prove that the only integer solutions to the equation (x-a)(x-b)(x-c)(x-d) - 4 = 0 is...

    HSC Trials is in one week from now and I have not started studying properly

    is this actually true.. Edit: Not neccessarily, but OP should be wary because below avg marks + low attendance may become a catalyst to not getting their HSC. Take the advice on this board with discretion, as always.

    COVID-19 and school closures

    Most schools were actually approaching the second assessment task phase. They've been postponed for the most part (or changed to hand-in).

    Going on a Europe Trip

    It depends on your work ethic and how much content you are willing to catch up on. In general, not really.

    Correlation between Complex Locus and Circle Geometry (former harder 3u)

    Currently, the most efficient way to study locus problems; and the wide variety of rules/properties you may be asked to prove is to: 1. Grind out problems. 2. Identify what circle geometry property is being used. 3. Learn it and move on. I'm still not super convinced with how thorough this...

    Things to do on the day of the exam.

    Hey, just wanted to get some thoughts and strategies about how to (mentally) prepare yourself on the day of a 4u exam. If you found anything helpful in calming you down and letting you focus on the day of the exam, I'd love to hear about it. Thanks!

    Logic - negation

    Terry Lee does not cover negation and the like. Both Fitzpatrick and Cambridge do - although Cambridge does delve into set theory and venn diagrams and stuff. Not sure about the others.

    Maths Practice Papers New Syllabus!

    Legend Edit: I thought that I may as well be constructive with this comment - a 3U vectors past paper would be extremely helpful to basically everyone here. Reasons for being: 1. It helps the 4U students get better at geometrical complex problems 2. A decent amount of people I interact with...

    Euler's Theorem

    My 4U teacher taught and made us prove it using a Taylor or Maclaurin series lol.

    SMSHS: Is Year 12 Entry Worth It?

    St Marys is pretty great. I have a mate who moved over from another school recently (for year 12) and he's having a pretty good time.

    Help on Past Paper questions

    i've only just started the course so i can't really help you, but it seems you're more likely to get a response if you provide screenshots of the questions.
