    General Thoughts: General Mathematics

    The question was on the lines of the Guy wants to find what is a cheaper option. The bike ride TO the university is 17km and costs this much per litre etc. The bus for 10 trips costs this time ---. 17km to uni = 34km both ways = 340km for 10 trips and at the price of fuel you calculate it. Why...

    Also, that's the whole point they won't tell so they can trick you. They won't write he travels 34km for one way and then back but rather 17km one way. Calculate how much per trip. It's implied he will go back. I asked on fb and it's like a 50/50 split on what people did but meh... It's 2 marks

    General Thoughts: General Mathematics

    No one goes to uni and dosent go back. The bus takes you both ways. I'm pretty sure there was a trick to it because they wanted you to find what was the cheaper option. And it would make sense since the bike is cheaper one way but not two ways and they can catch a lot of people out for 2 marks I...

    General Thoughts: General Mathematics

    Yeh it's stupid. I only know because I had to get insurance when I got my P's. Otherwise I'd have no clue.... Did anyone else catch the trick btw with the bicycle/bus is cheap? It's 2L, 34km ONE WAY, she then has to go back home another 2L,30km so the bicycle was like $30.40 cheaper

    band 6 cut off this year?

    Tbh I wouldn't call it a long shot if a 75 got a band 6 now that I'm reading even more people 8/10 felt it was beyond difficult. As for a band 5 I think=70+ Band 4=60+ Band 3=50+ The test compared to previous years is a big difference. Average Mark is probably going to be around 40% raw statewide.

    Comprehensive insurance means you and the other driver/s are covered regardless if you are at fault. Third party your car isn't covered if it's your fault

    Yeh I had problems with that question and the other algebra questions so I left them out. Also does anyone know the answer for the simpsons rule, why it is 114 degrees angle, and the question about the time difference, was it 140 mins?

    General Thoughts: General Mathematics

    I found this test so hard... Went through a few of the past papers and they were a lot easier imo. This one had a bunch of questions I didn't answer, probably about 20 marks worth and the ones I did answer I wasn't sure about. Very hard test and all my friends but one found it the same

    Could someone please estimate my atar? :)

    Oh it's ranked 308 according to some website. Average school but last year there were like 40 people with 80+ atar so not all hope lost

    Could someone please estimate my atar? :)

    Sorry worded it badly, those are my school ranks on the left. The percentage next to them is what I think I'll get in the hsc.

    Could someone please estimate my atar? :)

    Hey so before I write my ranks, according to my teachers the moderated marks in my school usually go up around 5%-10% but I'm not counting on it so could someone give me a close estimate of my atar if I achieved the following, thanks :D Ranks and marks- Ancient History: 23/70 and then 70%...

    General Thoughts: Ancient History

    If you wrote 3 pages just about Punt and her legacy that's really good. I'd say you could still get really good marks since the question was sort so poorly worded no one I talked to knew if they should just do Punt or everything in her legacy. I don't see why you can't get around a 12/15. 3...

    General Thoughts: Ancient History

    Perhaps, do you remember the question? I do know remember something about the college of augustales but nothing else, does anyone else remember the question/answer?

    General Thoughts: Ancient History

    What you did was right. They can't expect you do a 15 marker with only using Punt to show her legacy. To get full marks or close you would need to talk about other parts of her legacy such as her buildings ( mortuary temple at Deir El Bahri), her minor military campaigns, can talk about how she...

    General Thoughts: Ancient History

    a) The answer was mosaic NOT FRESCO b) Impluvium c) Fermented Fish Sauce d) Cutting the things up - this is the one people had mixed opinions on, its either that or hot food/snacks (my class had a discussion after the exam) e) Some Cult activity took place outside temples f) Chief magistrates...
