...well, so much for that.

anyway would it take ages for the premier to hand out over 800 awards? (if most people turn up)

by inspection, 16 is one of the trivial answers :p (x=4, y=7, z=5, w=6) but honestly, if your looking for non-integer solutions as well, its a pretty crappy question. because from the second line, x+z=3+w (which don't mean crap cuz w don't appear anywhere else.) so the question is to find...

well although its not the case, people like laurie should get $4000.

eco 90 eng adv 89 maths ext1 100 maths ext2 99 phys 94 sdd 95 sam: 99.80 uai: 99.80 spot on.

just a quick question, placings are based on hsc or aligned marks right?(not exam)

I'm sure laurie did more than 2 (explains why he beat me) anyway, getting a good uai was the main priority, so scalingwise, 99 and 100 aren't that different. also the most i can get is 99 anyway since my assessment mark was 98.

so wats the award that you get $2000 for?

well i just call them the longlist and the shortlist longlist: economics, maths ext1, maths ext2, physics, software design and development. shortlist: maths ext1, maths ext2, software design and development.

aaahhha, i DIDNT come Second!! in fact, i came sixth, so, in your face! :p

opportunity arise from getting decent result in other more common competitions (amc) that he did enter. (anyway im just rebutting to keypads' comment of ngai was lucky that ppl stuffed up this year) anyway thats not the point of the thread, no matter what happened, keypad did top last year...

i didnt think 4u was that fun to the extend of doing it for fun. I did it because it gives good scaling.

sorry tom, but i have to say: ngai can actually be classified as a "mathematical elite" (whatever that is), he has been known to do well over the years in various maths comps and such and wasnt all that far away from getting a trip to athens. ...unlike someone else:D. (waiting for...

he was both on channel 7 and 10.

i did warn everyone not to bet on it. (bet with your head, not over it)

haha you lost that 5 bucks anyway. whats better, killing me or laurie wouldnt have helped. :D

please no, (wel if you do, make sure its at unsw)

since everyone is doing it, bah why not 15110 Economics 2 22 / 75 15140 English (Advanced) 2 13 / 188 15250 Mathematics Extension 1 2 1 / 153 15260 Mathematics Extension 2 2 1 / 117 15330 Physics 2 2 / 97 15360 Software Design and Development 2 1 / 8

sgs. anyway where is this "final rankings thread"?

alrite im probably not too qualified to comment but from what i've known so far here to sum up about last year: 1. last year's field was no where as strong. 2. there are a couple of really good guys but yeah, they did screwed up. 3. keypad is talented (wont comment on the extent), probably...
