Idk if they still work for the new syllabus but most of the new topics are the same still, but we used Terry lee (decent/good). Cambridge is good but from what I remember it has some reaaally hard questions if you want to practice that.

Some notable changes are that the maths in focus will be out earlier than expected - yet the mastering hsc maths will be out later than expected.
The upcoming Mastering HSC Mathematics this time will be only me, which is why it will take longer.

I will most likely finish around mid-December but there's not much point publishing it at that time when I can instead spend another month or so to perfect it.

I've had a few teachers email me with this same problem. Currently investigating and should be fixed in a day or two.

So I got the new Ext. 1 and Ext. 2 maths in focus Year 12 ebooks - both suffering from font corruption.

The font corruption is extremely bad in particular in the Ext. 2 ebook.

Similar font corruption occurred in the early versions of some of the cambridge ebooks.

Maybe leave it for a few months and redownload them all again. That actually solved the problem for cambridge ebooks - after they received many complaints and were force to fix their ebooks.

Of course they could all completely avoid font corruption in the first place by typing up all the ebooks in LaTeX.

One notable case is the Cambridge Ext. 2 ebook. Early versions of the ebook had no font corruption whatsoever. The reason: that one WAS done in LaTeX. But only that one.
I find this really surprising.

The Cambridge books all look LxTeXed to me, and the original materials from which they began were all LaTeX works.

This is finally coming out October 23rd. This is on MANSW's website now:

View attachment 29161

This is 3 days before the HSC exam. So you'll have 3 days to work through the whole book.
Yes, finally they have arrived and I have one next to me right now! I wish they could have come sooner but it is what it is.

I have made it as in-depth as I could and there is a plethora of challenging problems in it. I hope they will be useful for current and future students.

The picture on the MANSW website is still incorrect, with the other "Author". I know it was just Jonathan Le for this one, so here is a real picture of the real book - with the correct cover (with just one author). This is important for referencing purposes.

Thanks for raising that. I've sent in a request with the updated cover now.

Yep I was able to get my hands on it last month but still waiting on worked solutions
Are there summarised/abbreviated solutions at the back of the book?
Is it just the full worked solutions that are pending?
