    HSC Standard/Advanced Paper 1 Exam Thoughts

    Lol apparently even though there questions asked for our own personal opinion (how has it caused you to reconsider...), we weren't meant to use personal language. Rip my atar..

    HSC Standard/Advanced Paper 1 Exam Thoughts

    Ngl I liked hagseed. You don't know true pain of english texts until you've read boy behind the curtain by Tim Winton though.

    HSC Standard/Advanced Paper 1 Exam Thoughts

    So stupid. I would much rather if a useless compulsory subject was rote learning as opposed to ReCOnSiDeR type questions on themes never even taught in most classes lol.

    ATAR Estimate??

    Don't worry about your school rank, just aim to do as well in externals as possible. I can confirm that I go to a pretty low ranked school and we generally get like 7 or 8 people getting over 90 atar each year (small cohort size of like 60 each year), with the people doing your types of subjects...

    HSCBUZMAN'S ENGLISH PREDICTIONS (ADV)

    I really hope you aren't right for mod A, that conversation would single handedly kill my atar. Also if mod B is based off a specific poem for Malouf I have a chance of being stuffed

    Whose ready for english?

    Everyone just remember that after a few more days of awful torture and suffering, we will never have to deal with this utterly useless subject again.

    help on abstract perms and combs

    Can this be derived in the same way with binary, but grouping them in such a way that you have c 0s behind each 1, then adding up all the individual cases, which are starting with 1, 01, 001 etc?

    Whose ready for english?

    Lol common mod is the absolute worst for me because we have the worst possible text you could imagine (Tim Winton). Mod A and B I'm not too worried for, but I'm not feeling very good still. Mod C hopefully is imaginative. Really hope I can scrape a band 5, but its not looking likely at this rate...

    help on abstract perms and combs

    Yes, and this formula can be derived quite easily using binary (which is exactly the same method you used to solve this question, but with red and blue counters instead of 1 and 0). \text{Imagine you have N cards and want to select n such that no cards have consecutive integers. This is...

    How do you view these band 2 answers? Sounds like an untapped meme goldmine lol.

    Lol well hey, that works with stuff like the integral of the square root of tan x

    BoS Maths Trials 2019

    Biggest meme for us was saying let u=x when given an integral to solve by u sub. Also the classic "expand this expression", then redrawing the question with the brackets more spaced out.

    Ah right, I didn't see that he meant that. Yeah thats much easier than the other method haha.

    What raw marks in extension 2 generally correspond to state ranks?

    Yeah q8 was pretty easy tbh, especially the circ motion part. The only really tricky question in that paper was circle geo, and even that wasn't awful, compared to something like the last question in 1989 or even 1998. But part iii of the circle part is a huge trap. Like I just assumed it...
