    Hours of study

    However much you need. Some of my friends study 3+ hours a day, I study maybe 4 hours a week at most.

    HSC Music 1- some advice please!!

    I can't answer a lot of those questions as I'm a music 2 student, however, make sure your pieces are at a difficulty that matches your own level of performance. Playing an easy piece really well will always be better than playing a difficult piece badly. I can't remember the marking criteria...

    Scaling and Raw Marks

    Absolutely none, they're not scaled but "aligned" by the school. They actual marks schools submit don't matter (very much).

    Is textual integrity a real thing, outside of BOSTES

    It's just wrong, even when speaking you're not saying "should of" but the contraction "should've" as in, "should have"

    HSC 2016 MX2 Marathon (archive)

    Re: HSC 2016 4U Marathon \lim_{x\to 0} \frac{\sin{(x^2)}}{\sin^2{x}} = \lim_{x\to 0} \frac{\sin{(x^2)}}{x^2}\left( \frac{x}{\sin{x}}\right )^2 = 1 \times 1 = 1 Honestly, I'd consider that 3U level :p Unless by "With Proof" you meant "By squeeze theorem" in which case I wouldn't see it as a...

    2016ers Chit-Chat Thread

    I haven't yet memorised essays, but I'm definitely going to do it for HSC. It's a really easy way to get 90+ raw - just keep editing one essay until it's worth full marks and change it a tiny bit on the spot to fit the question. :p

    Good essay that doesn't answer the question: at least 8/15 Bad essay that does answer the question: no more than 9/15 :))))

    Trial exam was copied exactly from past papers.

    It's 100% allowed and in fact what a majority of schools do - if you didn't study past HSC exams before trials that's your loss :p Everyone had an equal opportunity to study them.

    Is textual integrity a real thing, outside of BOSTES

    I'm so tempted to use triple contractions in my essays for the lols

    Is textual integrity a real thing, outside of BOSTES

    ??????????? Textual integrity is 100% definitely a real thing What isn't a real thing is saying Che Guevara's loss of his motorcycle is representative of his loss of youthfulness as he undergoes a critical metamorphosis of character due to his cultural and intimate discoveries

    SDD, Drama, or Construction for Year 11

    It really depends on your school's assessment scheme for drama, but yeah you'll have fun :p

    SDD, Drama, or Construction for Year 11

    Assessment wise, a large portion of it is theory (essays, handing in your log books, rationale, etc.) but you do heaps of practical work in class, and if you're lucky you might get a few excursions too. :) Class time is almost exclusively practical, so you're expected to be able to handle the...

    SDD, Drama, or Construction for Year 11

    Drama is lots and lots of fun but the essays and log books will make you want to die There is no relevant content in SDD about industry - it's all extremely outdated at this point, but a really easy subject to get consistent full marks in I can't comment on construction since I haven't done it

    Raw marks for mx2

    85/120 in MX2 would align to around 89-90. 74-77/84 in MX1 would align to around 94-96. 63/70 for MX1 aligns to around 96. 75/100 in MX2 aligns to aronud 91. For 98 in MX1 you would need 66-67/70 raw, and for 96-98 in MX2 you'd need 88-95 ish /100. Source

    Re: HSC 2016 4U Marathon Exactly, which is why I would've just expected a 4u student to differentiate as if i was any other constant with the property i^2 = -1, and the rest of the proof follows :p

    Re: HSC 2016 4U Marathon e^z = e^(x+iy) for complex z is to be defined as the unique holomorphic function that agrees with e^x for real x? (I think that's a good definition for this) Since it's holomorphic that means it's complex differentiable, and so the chain and product rules apply in the...

    Re: HSC 2016 4U Marathon $By considering the function $f(x) = e^{-ix}(\cos{x} + i\sin{x})$, prove that $e^{ix} = \cos{x} + i\sin{x}$. Hence find expressions for $\cos{x}$ and $\sin{x}$ in terms of $ e^{ix}$.$

    The integral one, I just could not handle all the letters. Brain was like "sorry brain not found", I don't think I did any of part c. ...Nor much of part b.
