    Engineering Studies Predictions/Thoughts

    My problem with this subject is that the stuff (minus the hard mechanics) is actually fairly easy. But there's so much random content that the test will ask you about the manufacturing process of the large hadron collider and you just somehow have to know it from the one random sentence in your...

    SDD Predictions/Thoughts

    I think I got almost everything else correct but I somehow messed up the goddamn deskcheck o_O I didn't notice the line that set len was outside the loop and my brain auto piloted it and it's the dumbest mistake to make. And I thought I did my storyboard correctly but thanks to this thread I'm...

    SDD Predictions/Thoughts

    The code stopped at Q anyways (WHILE productNum != "Q"...) So you didn't need to check after that

    SDD LAST MINUTE PREP

    Something I've noticed personally that's helped a bit is that the answers are almost never actually looking for an insightful answer. If there's a situation and it asks for the benefits of using a certain approach in it, half the time the answer guidelines will half mention the situation and...

    Physics Predictions/Thoughts

    I'm definitely feeling like they'll ask a beginning of the universe question it's been ignored for a while now. And yeah, I expect all of you BOS people to smash this exam

    SDD Predictions/Thoughts

    Maybe I'm just bad at paradigms so anything looks easier lmao. No but like all the data type stuff is pretty simple, same with logic gates. Definitely with the convoluted questions though it's like choosing the lesser of two evils.

    Physics Predictions/Thoughts

    It was way too easy last year, I remember walking out of it disappointed because all the mistakes I made would be/were dumb errors of not writing the specific word they wanted instead of not knowing the concepts. Enjoy dying this year when they stretch the syllabus definitions and ask you to...

    SDD Predictions/Thoughts

    I'm doing paradigms but in some of these past exams I see the other option topic and realize I might be able to do better on them without even properly studying it depending on the questions

    Maths Extension 2 Predictions/Thoughts

    wdym? you have two roots, you need two more. You have (abcd being roots): a+b+c+d = 1 add abcd = -30, you have a and b given so you have 2 equations and 2 variables

    It was definitely somewhere in between 2021 and 2022 but 100% not 2021 easy

    Maths Extension 2 Predictions/Thoughts

    I think it was something like this z and w are complex numbers such that π/2 < arg(z/w) < π On a xy graph sketch π/2 < Arg((xz+wy)/z) < π It was only 3 marks.

    Maths Extension 2 Predictions/Thoughts

    Random advice for any people doing the exam in 50 minutes: No matter how hard the question is, just write something. The marking guidelines will give you a mark for even writing some basic formula because enough people didn't write anything. Just don't leave anything completely blank and you...

    Urgent - Can you write cis in the hsc

    Even if it's not "technically allowed", as long as it shows your working out to find the answer there should never be an issue. You could use a :) for your variables as long as it gets the right answer. If you're really worried you could always write let z = cos(x) + isin(x) = cis(x)
