    HSC General Maths Marathon

    Ok you have 4 different charges to add up. First, if its a week where he gets an emergency call out so its a $150 allowance. Then you just have his normal working hours, 40 x 22.35 = $894. Then you have his 5 hour callout paid at double time, so 22.35 x 5 x 2 = $223.50. Then his 2nd call out is...

    HSC General Maths Marathon

    Pretty good, I'm averaging 93-95% in past papers under exam condiditions so if I get a similar result in the exam I will be really happy. I actually love multiple choice for maths I do it in about 10 minutes so I have more time for the other questions. What are you finding frustrating?

    I've been failing all the past papers, what should I do :( ?

    Make sure when you are marking them you actually figure out where you went wrong rather than just giving it a cross then moving on. If you notice you are getting a lot of the same type of question wrong, find a textbook exercise on those types of questions and do them until you are getting htem...

    HSC General Maths Marathon

    I made myself a little summary sheet of things that are not on the formula sheet that would be good to remember and thought I would share in case it is useful for anyone else. My handwriting and drawing is not great but hopefully someone finds it helpful

    What's the deal with Arts?

    I think part of the reason people say stuff like that is because arts doesn't directly lead to a specific job like say nursing, education, medicine, with those degrees there is an obvious job at the end. But as Blue Suede said above, thats ok because arts and the skills you learn are applicable...

    Scaling before or after?

    So say you got 85 in a subject like chemistry, and 86 in a 'bad scaling' subject like senior science, but the scaled mark for chem was higher than for senior, it would be chem that would count towards your atar even though it had a lower raw mark? (assuming that the other 8 units were filled and...

    Mao's last dancer (novel) help? Related text

    I used the film version as my related for AOS, but I was advanced. I did not personally use the fables so that's something you might have to ask your teacher, but yes you would definitely be allowed to use them because they are part of the text. I personally chose a range of specific scenes and...

    Section 2 - Creative Writing

    So relieved it wasn't an interpretative dance or a painting, I was sweating for a bit there. Seriously though, thought the stimuli were horrible, especially when you had to make it the 'central element' but I think I adapted my story ok. Does anyone know if the picture of the woman was of a...

    It's not exactly forbidden but you're not going to get a good mark because it's obvious and doesn't show any skill or adaptation to the question

    Tips for Section 1 ?

    I do 1,2,3 paper 1 because I usually squeeze in just under time for sections 1 and 2 so I have longer to spend on essay. Did B,C,A for paper 2 in trials and will probably do the same again
