u hav to do the right trial papers to really consolidate ur understanding.

e.g.
CSSA
Independent
James Ruse
Sydney Boys

dont do papers from girls schools or schools ranked outside the top 70. definitely do CSSA papers.

well i did a paper from NSGHS for 4u. it was a joke. and if u think about the fact that NSGHS is 2nd in the state. imagine how other girls schools papers must be.

EDIT: Ascham (a girls skool) does set hard papers. but thats bcuz they only let like the very top ppl in their skool do 4u.

I've done about 12 and I've got a week to trials...hope that's enough to get a good mark. Embarrassing errors from smaller tests...

You're being a sexist mate
im not being sexist. go do an abbotsleigh or PLC or NSGHS or Sydney Girls 3U or 4U paper and then compare it to a co-ed or boys skool which is similarly ranked and u see the maths tests at girls skools r easier. however if u looked at humanities exams, girls skools definitely have harder questions.

Interesting that you mention this. I noticed last year that the NSGHS 2 unit papers were really easy. As they were the first past papers I attempted, they got my hopes up too much.
