Yeah I agreed so far:

2U- Harder than 2004
3u- Easier than 2004
Biology- Slightly easier than 2004
ESL- Easier than 2004
PDHPE- Harder than 2004
4u- Harder than 2004
I'm not sure about other subjects..

I did bio too and those last questions were quite tricky and hard. What mark do you think you'll get?

Anything worth above 4 marks irritates me.

I hope my HSC exams will end on a good note. My chemistry marks have been consistent for quite awhile now, and a lot of the information is probably permanently stuck in my head as I had to write about them probably over 50 times in the past year.

There is some pressure though because my parents expect me to do the best in this and also because the HSC is the last chance I have at beating the biggest Chem whiz in my grade who always, always beats me by just a few marks.

Chem should be a sinch. If you work consistantly through the year you've got it nailed.

Most of the problems will come with the extended responses.

my marks climbed for chemistry, 59% then 60% (big difference eh) then whack 85% chemistry trial (CSSA), thankYOU past papers! I hope to push that up to low 90s for the chem hsc
imo i reckon it will be hard, last years was really easy, I hope its hard though, that way it rules out people who've studied alot and know their shit well (ie. dreamerish) and those who havent

Chemistry is gonna be a bitch. My teacher didn't teach any of the option topic but just photocopied the topic from a textbook and told us to learn it for 'our very last holiday homework'....... so instead of just revising I'm learning a WHOLE NEW TOPIC. So yeah, I've pretty much spent all day just learning about forensics. I just hope the big 8 marker at the end is something easy like about ethics or some crap lol.

Our school is doing shipwrecks and salvage. I'm sure it is easier than Forensics.
Good luck though!!
