Hey guys, I made a website that marks your short answers for you, and I tested it on real, marked HSC papers (the first version predicted the HSC marker's assigned marking band with 73% median accuracy). If you want to use it, check out: https://hscpal.com.au/shortanswer Right now it supports...

If you've finished a HSC subject and received your exam back from NESA, I might be interested in buying it. I'm willing to consider any exams you might have. If you're interested, send me a DM.

The syllabus specifies we need to "calculate and interpret Pearson's correlation coefficient" but the formula itself is not written in the syllabus or the data sheet. So do we have to memorise the formula? Or do any questions that involve this formula just provide it for you?

Implicit differentiation questions have explicitly appeared in some hsc past papers. Are they assessable for our hsc year?

In a reflection you're supposed to make comparisons between your MOD C texts and how they inspired you. How are you meant to link a discursive and compare it to MOD C's poems and short stories? They seem way too different for any stylistic features or similar symbols to pop up.

I've tried searching for past forums about this and checked websites and can't find any opinions. Long story short, how many minutes would you guys spend on each section of the English advanced paper 1 and paper 2 exams?

With thousands upon thousands of students doing the same text year after year, isn't there a 100% chance that at least two people will use the EXACT same quotes for an essay? Out of curiosity, what would happen? Would they get picked up for plagiarising? If so I'd assume this would be a hot issue.

I've found an essay with mostly perfect summative quotes for a text. Is it okay if 80% of my essay's quotes where aligned with this essay? Or is that just plagiarism?

I've been struggling to study English a lot lately. I'm incredibly scared of not succeeding in a subject that supposedly measures my ability to 'think' and 'communicate'. These skills are incredibly crucial in the real world. They could mean the difference between a promotion and a failed...

THSC is no longer accessible and requires a password to use now. The website said you needed to be an active member of one of two websites (which included this website) to get the access key. Has anyone got a key yet?

What school has trials that cover the most amount of HSC content? In other words, which school's papers most reflect the HSC?

The 2020/21 math extension 1 and 2 exams are the only ones completely abiding by the new syllabus. Are all past HSC exams before them even worth doing then?

ATARs are getting released on the 20th of January. Actual HSC results are being released four days later. Isn't it a bit weird to do it this way?

Would you get lower marks if the question didn't ask for form and you didn't include it? Or should form explicitly be in every essay regardless of whether it is requested or not?

I'm at a school where trials no longer go to my internals. The exams themselves haven't really been that official. Still, if externals get cancelled do you guys think trials going replace them in any way?

Is the only way for students to get high marks in an imaginative through memorisation? If so what do students memorise that allows them to adapt it to the question? Thanks in advance fellow BoSers!

If not. Will we lose marks if we include it?

Any recommended calculators for the hsc exam that makes 4u easier?

Are the questions provided on Paul’s math notes, good enough to practice for HSC assessments or would that be a waste of time?

I was told that after the syllabus changed, we wouldnt need to include critic quotes anymore in Mod B or other modules as they are no longer assessed. Is this true?
