The Casio video I mentioned in my first post was previously only accessible by logging into the Casio Prime website which is something only teachers could do - which is why I didn't provide a link to it before. However Casio have now moved it to a location which is publicly available. The new...

Another one due out this month is Jones, A., Excel HSC Mathematics Extension 1, Pascal Press, 2019

I just had a look at the newly released Cambridge Year 12 Advanced book to see how they do normal distributions. They mostly use tables (which is good because that's how most statistics courses treat it too.) Technically the book does cover the syllabus because they do have 1 question using...

Terry Lee has a new book too which is supposed to be released this month called "New Fundamental Mathematics". This combines Advanced and Extension 1 into the one book for year 12. It is available for preorder at http://advancedmathematics.com.au and other bookshop websites.

Nesa have now published advice at https://educationstandards.nsw.edu.au/wps/portal/nesa/11-12/hsc/rules-and-processes/approved-calculators/calculators-for-the-2020-hsc "NESA recommends that schools and parents postpone purchasing calculators until the list of approved calculators for 2020 is...

There is an article on this now in the Sydney Morning Herald: https://www.smh.com.au/education/hsc-calculator-changes-will-disadvantage-nsw-students-teachers-say-20190813-p52gmt.html

I should point out that publication dates seem to be in quite a state of flux - so final publication dates may differ from the predicted ones in the list.

Terry Lee has also made a new book called New Advanced Mathematics. This is for the new HSC Extension 2 course. I have added it to the list

Thanks for the link to the archived version of the old hsccoaching.com website which has been shut down. But the new website (which also includes 2018 solutions) is at advancedmathematics.com.au

The hsccoaching.com was shut down. But there is a new website now called http://extension2.com ( a mirror of which is also at http://advancedmathematics.com.au ) There you can get the 2018 HSC solutions for Extension 1 at http://extension2.com/Resources/2018 Ext1.pdf (or alternative link...

When the hsccoaching.com website was shut down it was thought incorrectly by many that Terry Lee has stopped doing solutions. In fact what happened was that he retired and started a new website http://extension2.com ( a mirror of which is at http://advancedmathematics.com.au ) . So there are...

Another new book is Mastering HSC Mathematics - Year 11 Extension 1 Mathematics put out by MANSW by the end of March. Here is the website you can order from when it is released: https://www.mansw.nsw.edu.au/shop/mastering-mathematics-series-anne-joshua-jonathan-le

There is not much available for the new syllabus yet. You guys are the guinea pigs. Things may improve soon once schools start doing tests for the new syllabus. Currently you can get new senior maths, maths in focus and page proofs for cambridge. The extension 1 cambridge book will be...

Another one which didn't quite make it to the list, (but still worth mentioning) is Sydney Grammar School, Mathematics Extension 2 Notes, Sydney Grammar School, 2015 This unpublished text gets emailed to teachers upon request - and charged on the basis of student numbers using it. It will...
