What kind of raw marks in the external HSC exam would you need in English Advanced for a 96 HSC mark? Edit: To account for aligning, I do Dickinson, Frankenstein/Blade Runner, Speeches and Julius Caesar.

I hear that Industrial Chemistry also scales the highest.

So other HSC and Grammar papers, which other maths 3u/4u papers are worth doing (e.g. independent, ruse, cssa)?

Are the Independent, CSSA or Ruse papers worth doing too?

After HSC papers, what are the best trial papers to do for maths 3u and 4u?

How about the chord of contact? Can we quote that, because it takes a bit longer?

I thought the unseen and grammar were okay (although based on stuff I already knew), but yea the Virgil and Livy lectures were pretty irrelevant. Now for trials and HSC...

Yea, does anyone have any 2013 trials they can upload?

I've been searching for 3U & 4U Maths Trial papers, but all the ones I can find are old (earlier than 2010). Does anyone have any recent maths trial papers they could upload (preferably 2012/2013, due to the new format)? Thanks.

What's an effective method of drawing links between two texts? I often find myself making superficial links using words such 'similarly' or 'in contrast'.

Bump!

What were the Mod B - Speeches and Conflicting Perspectives questions?

I'm struggling to understand this Module. I'm doing Julius Caesar. Are we meant to talk about why the composer (Shakespeare) presents conflicting perspectives, or why characters (e.g. Brutus, Antony, Cassius) have different perspectives on an event/personality/situation? Thanks in advance :)

Re: HSC 2013 4U Marathon Consider the ellipse x^2/100 + y^2/25 = 1, and let P be the point (6,4) on the ellipse. If the normal at P meets the major axis at G, and OH is the perpendicular drawn from the origin to the tangent at P, show that PG x OH = 25.

It all depends on your personal interests and ATAR aim. Don't do/not do a subject because it's easy/hard, do it because you like it or because you need it for your future goals.

Re: HSC 2013 4U Marathon Suppose that three points on the parabola y=x^2 have the property that their normal lines intersect at a common point. Show that the sum of their x-coordinates is 0.

Re: HSC 2013 4U Marathon Show that, if the four points representing the complex numbers z1, z2, z3, z4 are concyclic, the fraction (z1-z2)(z3-z4)/(z3-z2)(z1-z4) must be real.

Re: HSC 2013 4U Marathon Prove that four consecutive terms in a row of the Pascal triangle cannot form an AP.
