He calculated 90% of 120. Only problem is that raw marks don't align to HSC bands due to the aligning process.

I got $975.85

Re: Two exams in the same day? For those who have to go into that 'lockdown' thing, are you allowed to study your own notes during that period?

Try asking in the actual D&T forum. This forum is only for the 2008 D&T HSC exam. You'll find it under Bored of Studies > Secondary Education > New South Wales (HSC) > Technology > Design & Technology

The reason why comparing pages written is easier compared to the quality of the arguments is that pages written is a quantitative measure. Quality is exactly that, a qualitative measure. It's much easier to compare 1 or 2 digits, than it is to compare how strong a response is.

I used only Schindler's List. I Cannot Forget by Alexander Komel was a fairly last-minute change as the other one I had before wasn't very good. I spent about half the essay on it and the other half on set text The Fiftieth Gate, which was good, because I could go into detail about all the film...

At the moment, I can't get Closer by Ne-Yo out of my head. It's one of those songs that has a rhythm that's addictive

I don't know where you got that figure from Kevin. I compared the number of students listed in the 2007 Media Guide and the 2008 Media Guide. As I said before, this equates to 782 extra students.

Compared to last year, there are only an extra 782 students sitting the HSC this year. Considering that not everyone is planning on going to university and the number of courses available, this increase won't make a huge difference on the UAI cutoffs. Cutoffs will be affected much more by...

I'm afraid you're out of luck there. The examiners are the same for the entire HSC examination period, and they also run the School Certificate exams as well.

I'm pretty sure it was something along the lines of "adjective, a describing word ... like scared and on the spot" I LOL'd at that as well

Generally, staff development days only occur in terms 1, 2 and 3. This happens in government schools, as noted at http://www.schools.nsw.edu.au/calendar/?do=setViewPeriod&categoryid=21&viewType=yearView

For questions which require you to answer using an exact value, you can evaluate it on your calculator... as long as you know how to convert back to exact value. For example, if I get 5.026548246 as an answer, I can divide by pi on the calculator to get 8/5. To reverse that, we multiply by pi...

It's much faster if you learn how to use the keyboard to type the formulas instead of clicking from the ribbon. For example, you can type 2^3 *space* to produce 2 to the power of 3, or V= \pi *space* \int ^3_0 *space* (x^3/4)^2 *space* dx to produce the volume of the revolution about the x axis...

It's because the docx file format is actually a zip file, with all of the xml files inside it. In other words, it's compressed. When converting to doc, you're going back to a binary file format which isn't compressed, hence it's bigger. As for the guy who 'invented' the Ribbon, it was created...

1) The equation is a circle with the centre being the origin and the radius = 2 Hence the domain is -2 <= x <= 2 The range is -2 <= y <= 2 2) The function (a semi-circle) has a domain: -1 <= x <= 1 (as you can't get the square root of a negative number) The range is -1 <= y <= 0 This assumes...

To quote my former teacher/deputy principal (now acting principal): "There is plenty of time for honesty; the HSC is not one of those times." While he was intending to refer to the common practice of BS'ing instead of a) saying you don't know the content/your texts or b) how much you hate them...
