[andybandy]

omg thats the hardest 2 unit paper ive ever seen..

 

[Focus is Key]

Ohhh, that looks annoying. I'll give the paper a go tommorrow, have a feeling I'll need the solutions lol

 

[DarrenPhiLuong1]

Hey CarrotSticks are there going to be solutions? or are we going to post the answers here ourselves

 

[anthony_wheels]

I seriously skipped 1/2 of that, and of the half that I did do, i'd say I would have screwed up 1/2 of it! Aiming for a solid 25%! :O That goodness the HSC papers are pretty similar for year to year. I.e Same questions, just worded differently!

 

[JT145]

I'm aiming for 10%.

Mhm. Yet again I'm a solid hitting 60% student in an actual exam

 

[HAX0R]

What happened the the solutions? There were solutions to the 3u exam... Now they're deleted?

Actual exam, as in a past HSC or school exam? haha

One good thing is that once we get the solutions (and understand them) we should be able to do similar questions in the actual HSC (if they even put similar questions in the HSC)

 

[HAX0R]

Guys, just letting you know the actual exam will be 5 times as difficult.

 

[obliviousninja]

Looking at the paper just then, most of it is do-able.

I wanna get link to 4u, but I dont want people posting answers to that thread.

Not sure if srs. Have a look at any of the HSC exams from the past 30 years and you will not find one as difficult as this one.

Agreed, but it's tough under time constraints (well, that's what I found anyway) ... You probably would have found it easy if you're doing 4U

Lol the 2u wasnt as straightforward as it looks...

If you dont want people to spoil it then dont fkn open it lol!

 

[ForOneEon]

Definitely not straightforward. However, the main problem I encountered in all three exams was time. If you were given even ten more minutes, some questions just click into your mind.
Still, I feel like an idiot for forgetting my area of a sector formula for 16a.
