Nah dude that's way too fucking high LOL. People can drop 30 marks on question 15 and 16 alone. It'll be High 50s - 60ish.

Prediction: Average mark will be higher as a percentage than some past years, but there will be less clustering at the top...the hardest questions weren't worth very many marks.

Wow everyone complaining about how hard it is. Last q was the easiest one in the last decade besides 2007. E4 should be 65-70 percent as normal

Just wondering what HSC marks for this paper would 64%, 82% and 94% (raw) be aligned to.

yh i don't think the circle quadrant cuts it. I think height is dependent on quadrant of ellipse
cause Ab isn't r units
