Idk how ts works but yessssssss

basically they internally scale people's marks and then add the 10 units worth together to make an aggregate
and then, based on this aggregate, they rank everyone
then like the top 50 people are 99.95, then 99.90, etc.
so if everybody performed worse across the board you may still get the atar you want

I have seen some of my classmates attempt to do the same thing and the results... weren't great. By directly memorising someone else's exemplar can really limit you especially under timed and stressful environments, you might panic and just regurgitate whatever you remembered instead of actively answering the question, you also limit your own understanding of the text by simply copying analysis from someone else.

Well thats why you have adapting practice so you adapt to the point where the piece becomes second nature to you (just like if it was your own one)

it also depends on the question. what if they ask u to talk about a specific story/poem? What if the question is entirely different from the exemplar which u have? Adapting your exemplar essay fully to answer a question is gonna make you lose marks instead and memorising so many exemplar paragraphs is gonna create higher cognitive overload. rather you can save your time by just memorising quotes/stats/case studies or whatever. ur supposed to feel inspired by exemplars and understand how to write a band 6 response, not copy it or adapt it. However, you CAN adapt essay plans instead. They're more flexible and they give u a guide on what u wanna write on test day.

Guys is year 12 adv logs like a lot harder than year 11? Cause I’m going to the procon workshops and my school still hasn’t covered year 11 exponentials and logs. My school is so slow I actually can’t. I mean I did do some basic rules in year 10 so hopefully I don’t get too cooked

dont worry about it, maths is unique bc the year 11 and 12 courses are not separate like every other subject and both get tested in the hsc, so there isn't really a topic that is specifically 'year 11' in the sense that it becomes just assumed knowledge for year 12. you will learn logs and exp eventually and it wont be much harder than what youre used to now

Yea but the thing is that their gonna cover the harder stuff in logs for that workshop and if I don’t know the basics I’m gonna struggle even more

the only new stuff with logs after year 10 is a bit of calculus. if you really want to you can learn the log laws by yourself but it's not worth worrying if you don't get it now, the rest of the workshop will still be useful

Might they be covering differentiation/integration of exps and logs? I feel like everything else is in the yr 11 course iirc (which is just a couple formulas that are already on the reference sheet)

But exps and logs aren't very hard at all, you'll be alright. PROCON spells it all out for you

I’ve been trying not to memorise an essay for Common Mod (eng adv) but my improvised essays always come out so shitty! In trials my memorised Common Mod essay scored the least at 14/20 when my others were all at least 16/20.
I wanna give up because I hate our prescribed text so bad (1984) but genuinely what do I even do? Should I just memorise a mid essay so I can use it for anything? Should I made like a bunch of modular building blocks of analysis and piece them together? Ughh
