Don't think i'll drop engineering since I might end up doing better in it than in economics so I'm just going to have to grind both. Est hsc mark for physics was a 90 so you'll definitely be higher than that in solid b6 territory. I definitely hope its accurate and that I can even exceed those...

96.79 is what they gave me, but I just had a look again and my engineering mark didn't change from the second projection they gave me so it should definitely be lower than what they gave me. estimated indicative atar of ext 1 is 99.4 and ext 2 is 99.6

reckon your prediction will be higher than mine though since i bottled economics and engineering

got mine back this morning and im happy with mine. Tempted to ask for a prediction myself to see what other people think in comparison to what the schools prediction is

@jimmysmith560 can you help this man out with some better numbers

Do you have any physics or economics trials?

Don’t forget that we’re getting projections back soon and you’ll probably have a meeting for it where you can find out what they think you’ll get. Even then, I don’t know how much to trust them so just lock in for hsc and you’ll get above that, trust.

I honestly should have just dropped it then I wanted to keep 12 units until trials so I could see what I did worse in and what I wanted to drop as a result. did worse in economics trial but the mark is much more beneficial to my star It is a bit crazy dropping after trials but honestly I'd...

I swear engineering is the most teacher dependent class in existence. Good teacher = good marks otherwise you’re kinda screwed unless you dedicate a ridiculous amount of time to it. I’m first in my class, got 73% in my trial (highest mark) and am dropping it because my teacher is useless and I’d...

Apologies for not having the answer to your question, but I believe that with a gap so small, as long as you still do well you’ll basically get an equivalent mark. I too dropped to second in maths ext 1 (by 0.3%) and physics by a similar small gap, so I’d like clarification too if anyone else...

I have an NSB booklet of just AM/GM inequality proofs with solutions which might help see there strategy for questions, but I think it's just trying replacements or working backwards mentally/on spare paper and then going from known statement, making substitution, getting to answer. Most...

What should I be doing post-trials? I assume mostly focusing on fixing stupid mistakes and just doing more trial papers, but is there anything specifically?

I think I got the second part of the torque one wrong using the wrong angles (I think) and then for most questions I knew the theory but wasn’t sure how well I was hitting the marking criteria purely because of the neap sample answers

In my trials, I spent the first few minutes looking through the paper to find the high mark questions, and then go back to the multiple choice and try to figure out the answers to a few and scratch them in with my nail so that I can save time once the exam starts

it did feel pretty easy to me as well but honestly, I reckon there’s a decent chance I drop a few ranks which is unfortunate. If I’m 3rd or 4th after this I think I’ll still be happy. Having ext 2 the day before sucked

How'd you feel about the exam?

I just approach these calculations incredibly crudely: [what you're trying to find] = -(everything else), but making sure to take net exports NSY = -((20-10) + 30 + 30 + 10 - 70) NSY = -(80-70) NSY = -10

in the test?

its not me, think about who it could be

yeah, same
