q 4c v. Stupid triangle thing.

Exactly my thoughts. Q10 did not deserve to be q10, similar to q10a from last year's, should have been q8-9. The last triangle question was the only mark I didn't do, and so far the only mark lost - I know all my answers as I wrote them on the paper.

Well I lost 2 marks with the stupid isosceles. I wrote down all my answers, and so far have not found anything wrong. So hopefully 115ish.

Let Q = 1/3

He is right. Once you do that, you get x=root(300/7). But x is between 0 and 5. Hence it does not exist and the cheapest method is straight there.

I got b=1.2, a =-1/20

What did everyone get to the answer to the last question in q10? I got 17/12 -2ln2.

Re: Band 6 Raw? No way.

I got k=ln2/1600

I got 17/12 - 2ln2.

I was thinking that during it, seems bit of a paradox to me. Ended up with 2pi/3 +2 as the final answer for the perimeter though.

Re: Band 6 Raw? I thought it was similar to last year's paper difficulty and q10 wise. So the cut-off will be similar to last year's, i.e. higher then normal.

I got 91/216

Personally, this was on par with last years. Found the paper, especially question 10 quite easy.

Yes.

Just remember that all papers are being scanned this year. Hence pencil may not be the best thing to use. Pen shows up better then pencil when scanning.

Well my teacher is a marker, and I know for a fact that if she sees a quote she has not heard before, she literally looks it up.

Cato? Wasn't he in number 3? I spent over an hour on it, and talked about everybody, fabius, scipio, micinius, macellus, longus, scipio's dad and uncle, flaminius and probably more. I basically just compared and contrasted the above.

In 2004 it was 83. My guess is that it will be 85ish this year. Personally I reckon I got 90+ raw.

I don't do the topic, so I am not 100% sure. However a few of the dot-points seem warfare related. e.g.'technology: weapons and armor', 'Significance of fortifications...', 'significance of warrior class'. Often ambigious dotpoints are exploited.
