Turns out I didn't go quite as poorly as I originally thought
Got 57/60 for Q6-10, however my teacher informed me that had he used the CSSA marking scheme and not deduct marks for small amounts of working I skipped I would have got 59/60
I don't think I went quite as well in the 1st half though, I missed a few really easy marks just because I couldn't think straight in the exam. Will find out next week >.>

I got few papers back out of 10 (forgot which one though). Currently sitting at 98% and another person in my year got the same mark.

horrible horrible paper.
we don't mention it at school.
lol ...
i didnt find it THAT bad.... but it felt weird coz the progression from q1 - q10 didnt feel that way - i mean, usually its obvious how its gets progressively harder. I didnt find q10 impossible (which it basically should be) yet i found q1 pretty hard... and the middle questions were pretty hard too - hardly any free marks anywhere.

hoping for something like 75-85%

Really? 2 Unit Mathematics isn't that easy. I don't think you can do the questions while being blinded-folded. You cannot even see the question, how can you come about answering the question in that way?

Mathematics Advanced is basic for me but that paper is NOT. CSSA want to fuck me up in head about it. I'm shit serious about this.

Question 1 is super easy, i get 12/12 for that one. For questions 2-4 is good, i say about 8-10 for each. After that is gone died. It was added as extension. Alright? Its fucked up paper.

Are you serious? If you are saying that CSSA paper is hard, you will have a hard time doing your HSC paper too. There aren't much difference between them. If you can pull off 100 in HSC, you won't have much problem pulling off 90 in CSSA.

I think CSSA paper was quite decent. It does reflect HSC to large extent.

Really? Ok.

Do you think people can expect higher mark in HSC than what they got in CSSA Trial?

don't blame the paper. it wasn't that hard compared to HSC.

also 53/120 is quite low for the highest mark.
