Since it is maths (only saying this because Maths always has one definitive answer) , it is possible. However, you would need to be very good at it.

Aim for it, sure. Though they tend to be quite anal in the marking, the last perfect score I know of was by Anthony Henderson in 1993.

In 1993? That beast! Average for that was only 46/120.

Lol its only yr10
Yeah i know :) i'm only caring about english and math.

But god damn that geography exam fucked me up. The essay question was worth 20 marks and it was "Evaluate the success of individuals, groups and different forms of government in managing coastal issues"

And i was like "what the..." so i sat there and braided my hair haha lol i just wrote "People litter on beaches and also erosion that is caused my the waves"

Another question was "Describe 2 human aspects that lead to Jambaroos success" and i literally wrote "Tourist attractions" hehe there goes my $150

Do the commerce exam, as prescribed by your timetable. That way if you get in trouble for it (you shouldn't if it's the school's fault), then you can claim that you just followed the exam timetable.

However, doing the French exam because the 'teacher said so' isn't as concrete.

My general rule of thumb was to study until the paper couldn't absorb any more tears.
Haha I guess that works. And I got demolished by some questions in a 4U paper today :(- there was this conics locus question that took me out and I couldn't do one of those complex questions where you need to find the centre of a circle...

And that was only up to Q14- hopefully I can get 15 and 16 lol
