    DILEMA: Using other peoples notes for the HSC & Trials?

    its ok to use them but its actually harder to memorise other peoples notes than what u've written on your own, e.g if u wrote an english short story and also got one off the internet, if they r the same length, you'd memorise the one you wrote a lot easier than the one you got off the internet...

    Trigonometry Question:

    just wondering when using the acos(x)+bsin(x)=Rsin(x+@) can u just say R=sqrt(a^2+b^2) and @=arctan(b/a) or do u have to expand Rsin(x+@) and equate co efficients?

    Advice for study on Conics and Mechanics

    conics: just have to do heaps of questions on it whether textbook or past paper mechanics(resisted): make sure u get ur first equation right usually F=ma=f(x) or F=ma=f(t), then just use ur basic 3u kinematic laws like a = vdv/dx for first case or a = dv/dt for second case, and continue...

    lets see how impossble it is to estimate my ATAR

    immpossible to estimate accurately based on ranks as ur sig says also hard for test scores unless we know the difficulty of ur exams and markers relative to the HSC exams. all i will say if u got those marks in my school u'd get a 99+, though i'm told my school marks pretty hard.
