2020 - 2021 was pretty chill
2022-2023 are in the harder end

So i hope 2024-2025 will be similar in difficulty
and since 2024 was pretty easy
hopefully (fingers crossed) tomorrows is as well

I think that 11-13 will be straight bookwork then it’ll just be a slow burn from 14 to the end.
I think there’ll be big multi parts like 8 mark 5 part type stuff on mechanics and vectors prolly

Oi guys just double checking for the HSC slope questions. When talking about the respective net forces in vertical and horizontal , we tilt the coordinate axes to align with the slope. So the net force in the vertical would bg mgsin or mgcos depending on what angle u use right or am I wrong.

Yeah draw a triangle where mg is the hypotenuse going straight down, then at right angles there’s the force down the slope and the normal force. Down the slope is mgsine I believe and normal is mgcos I believe

reckon if its too hot you could illness/misadventure? I mean in English I heard of people applying for it taking too long to get extra writing paper, surly if its a furnace in the hall that counts

they're definitely not getting consideration for that tbh it's way stricter, and if you know you're going to need extra writing booklets ask for them before the exam starts

it's also unfair when staff likes to make their own rules saying "i can't give you them now" or walk as slow as a fucking snail

does anybody know if our ext 2 response papers are scanned or marked physically? My teacher told me that they marked them physically and therefore I could use an erasable pen however I just want to confirm this as it would suck to have all my answers melted away.

I've heard they know when a student has high IQ (because they get given their internal assessment marks) and give special consideration and extra booklets to thos students faster because it's some weird hierchal thing
I didn't see that at my school yet but I've heard about it from other schools
like smart kids getting their own room kind of thing

none of this process is fair
