2006 hsc - there are just a ton of REALLY annoying questions in it. the hardest 4u trial ever concocted would easily be sydney boys 2002... i have not had the courage to attempt that paper properly out of the sheer fear of what would happen to me.... i have tried some of the questions from it...

love: harder 3u, mech, integration, volumes, induction, circle geo hate: fucking binomial theorem, never in my life has there been so much unnecessary working out.

3u: consistently 81+ - the lowest i got was 79 in that damn 2006 hsc grrr. 4u: it really depends - sometimes if i have an off day it can go REALLY low, but on most papers i get 100+. highest 114, but i don't aim for perfection in 4u after all :P

ohexploitable was talking about the sydney girls paper, i think, if i remember right. regardless of above, i also found this paper quite easy. i'm not surprised that someone got 117 in it haha.

if it takes you less than 3 hours to complete a 4u paper, it's either a very easy paper or you are just very very good. personally i've only finished a bare few 4u practise papers, and in those i finish with barely 5 mins to spare. they were pretty easy as well. 3u - i aim to finish the paper in...

i got 95/105 in my trial, and i'm hoping for about the same in this one. really depends on my belonging/b/c essays. i know my belonging and b essays were good, but i'm not sure how well i answered the question. i think i got 14 for s3p1 and probs 18-20 for s2p2. mod c is a bit concerning cos i...

guy from my school last year state ranked 4th - he was first internally, he got 104/105 in his trial. he didn't have one related prepared for belonging so that's probs what made it more difficult for him to come first. he got 98 as his overall mark though.

yeah um guys who were freaking out: i did 4 booklets in hsc for my essays for mod a/b so it was around 11-12 pages, not as bad, i didn't double space but i wrote large, ranging from 1-10 words per line LOL. mod c was 3, so about 9 pages.

LOL me too holy crap.

yeah, i thought they were fairly decent as well. i hated mod c though, cos the whole histmem thing was just a bit pointless in english to me. i'm not exactly a huge history buff you see ahaha

haha i do these texts exactly. also, because you would go to a relatively low ranked school, it's difficult to predict if you'll get a state rank since you don't know how good your essays are compared to a lot of top kids. for all you know, your school might mark easy. i think you should just...

people on the state rank list for maths ext2 will include jinghang luo from ruse and timothy large from grammar. edit: ohwait these dudes are in my grade i forgot which forum i'm posting in. haha but for maths i heard there is an alphamaffscunt in the grade below at my school, idk how things...

i know a lot of .95ers, and a few 100s from back in the days. a lot go into med, some go into combined law, and one i know even went to do some sort of literature course and is now teaching eng at my school :) the mentioned comm/advscimath is a popular choice also.

also re the exam: i'm predicting an okayish exam, with its fair share of hard and easy questions. not the most impossible paper, but defs not the easiest either. q8 will be a challenge. i'm hoping to get 100+ in the exam; anything over that is a bonus for me.

2007 paper is a joke, i could do every single question. i lost all my marks to sillies and got 115 >_>

if i remember your ranks right you are also a possible .95er, i'm expecting great things from you bud ;)

let us know if he does; i'd be curious to see. and just being sure doesn't mean anything. a dude at our school in 09 averaged mid-ish 90s for all his sciences, and state ranked all three. in our grade there's a dude who got one wrong only in every phys assessment - we all think he'll state rank...

^school rank? even if he's first in most subs doesn't mean he's going to get marks THAAAAT high.. like he could, but he'd have to be pretty extreme, and if your school isn't ranked too high you don't know how good the top people at other schools are.

nup, i have confidence in myself :D wbu

nah, i really don't trust the teachers and what they teach us hahaha. sometimes they have some decent handouts though.
