i thought it was shit. im a 3unit chick 2 but this was just annoying. its not that ther wasnt enuff time, they jst had a few of those dumb questions where if u dont get the first answer right, then ur stuffed for the next ones that use that answer. so ther goes like 4 marks in one go.
what was it out of???

hey did anyone get the series one? That was crazy. other than that i found the test easy. It wasnt hard at all actually. finished 30 minutes to go, but that dam series question..... 10 and 9 were actually the easiest questions in the exam. I'm hoping for a 100 or above.

Ugghh I had no idea for the series question! I kinda guessed and I might get a few marks for it, but it was horrible :( I really screwed up on question 9 and 10, i sat there trying to figure out the question with the square and triangles and that (i think it was in question 10) and got i) but couldn't go any further n was almost crying (lol i'm a sook :p).. So i just went through and tried to check out my other questions.

Definitely harder than most of the past HSC papers i've done I think!

mhuahaha, thats 1 mark i have over u lol, now just a few more

my thoughts on the exam, relatively easy, nothing to stunning

the series question with the farmer and his rain machine was weird, i did it the long way lol

overall, i'm happy with it

haha part i), i trial and error-ed it. 2nd guess of 7, pretty lucky. i thought question 10 wasn't too bad, can't say so much for question 9.
I did that too actually, I hope we get full marks for that.

VERY EASY TEST.... questions 8,9,10 were straightforward questions.... Honestly.. hardest question was 6........ it wasnt an AP or GP.... so you had to literally sub in 25 numbers.... Wtf? and did anybody remember that 1m^2 = 10 000 cm^2 ?
