What do you guys think of the Ext 2 Math scaling this year? Would it be better than previous years? (2 Viewers)

Your not the only one, the general consensous is that this exam was quite difficult relative to the 2020 and 2021 exams, and I would even reckon a harder than some of the upper level trials 2022 (james ruse and NBHS).

Im sure scaling will clutch tho dw, surely Nesa will cut us some slack right lmao.
I hope so.

I'm just so demotivated after ext 2. Don't think I'll even get a E4 in ext 1.

yea i feel u, i couldnt sleep yesterday bc i was thinking about "what ifs" e.g "what if I just spent more time on this question.../What if I used this method/What if I saw this word in the question".

Only way u can beat it, paradoxically, is by just doing papers for ext 1. Those thoughts won't leave for a while but u just gotta get back into the grind. Today was unproductive for me just like english but I'm ready for tomorrow.

Don't give up yet, you're halfway/near the end.

I second that, I also had an incredibly unproductive today, just to think that at the end of nearly 13 years of mathematics, that I crashed and burned put an intense burden on me, and people telling me to shake it off just fucking pisses me off, like bro after all that effort was it for nothing :(. But it is what is i guess.

Did papers today but felt so helpless. It felt like I could only just scrape a E4 raw on the papers.

Fingers crossed for tomorrow. Thanks for writing this out man.

It felt embarrassing. It cemented the fact for me that I had no chance in the first place against kids in top schools. I truly feel now that I was never good at maths to begin with. People are telling me that my ATAR will be fine but with these exams it's not looking good.

If you are "scraping" an E4 with your raw marks then you will definitely get an E4. Even for extension 1 the alignment is pretty crazy.
