    UMAT thoughts and discussion

    Yeah. I realised that he was a sexual predator on the second go. I can't believe they would include an extract of that in the UMAT exam and to make matters worse, the narrator, whose point of view we saw, was the sexual predator.

    Absolute Values

    The question asked us to integrate -secx using the substitution, t=tan(x/2). All of the options were in terms of t. (Sorry, but I don't know how to use the maths thing to make things look more mathematical and fancy.)

    Absolute Values

    Hi. Just wondering, is abs(x-1) equal to abs(1-x)? There was a multiple-choice question in my Trial HSC for Mathematics Extension 2 and there were two options with something like this. Thank you.

    Re: Australian Maths Competition 2013 Cool. My school is so stingy. You're so lucky. My exams end after Week 5.

    Australian Maths Competition

    Re: Australian Maths Competition 2013 Does anyone have the paper? I want to retry some of the last few questions and to predict my mark. My school is too cheap to allow us to take the paper home even though there was a space for us to write our name, year and teacher on it. Apparently, they're...

    Australian Maths Competition

    Re: Australian Maths Competition 2013 Wow. You guys got enough time to do the last five questions. I guessed all of them. I have a 1/1000 chance of getting one of the last few questions right.

    Australian Maths Competition

    Re: Australian Maths Competition 2013 Wow. I didn't realise that the cut off for a High Distinction was less than 50%. I've been getting Distinctions for the past few years and I also thought that a High Distinction was way out of reach and almost impossible for me to achieve, but this gives me...

    UMAT thoughts and discussion

    Thanks. That's interesting and it gives me a glimmer of hope. I guessed all of the pick the middle questions. I spent some time on the first few, but I still couldn't get it, so I just randomly picked an answer for rest of them. They're so annoying.

    Anyone else got there UAC pin?

    I still can't activate my Students Online account. It says that they do not have an email address on record for me. It's driving me crazy. I told my school and they haven't done anything at all. By they way, I got my UAC pin today. I've still got no idea of what courses to pick for university.

    UMAT thoughts and discussion

    Generally, what raw mark will give you a 70 to 80 final percentile?

    UMAT thoughts and discussion

    I guessed half of the questions. Just wondering, are your results the percentage mark you got in the exam or a ranking of how well you did in the exam compared to everybody else?

    Australian Mathematics Competition

    Don't they tend to ask questions with the year number, i.e. 2013, in it?

    Australian Mathematics Competition

    Hi. So, the Australian Mathematics Competition is held this Thursday. Is anyone practising for this? Is there any point to practice? Also, do you have tips or tricks, especially for the last ten questions, which are almost impossible for me? LOL. Thank you.

    UMAT

    Hi. So, who is doing the UMAT test tomorrow? Do you guys have any tips or tricks for attempting the test? I was doing some practice questions from a variety of sources and I've found them to be from moderating to very challenging. Is this just me? Good luck.

    Ranks Determine Marks for HSC??

    Does that mean that if I do really crap internally and I somehow manage to get one of the higher external marks, I can still get one of the higher HSC marks?

    Australian National Chemistry Quiz

    I just did the 2012 past paper and I got 21 out of 30. LOL. What would I approximately get? Would I manage to get a Distinction? I also managed to get the 2008 past paper today and I got 23 out of 30. 2008 seemed much easier than 2012 for some reason. I was basically staring at half of the...
