2005, question 8b onwards. 2003 was okay at the start, but suddenly got worse at question 10.

I think people found the 2006 paper quite challenging. Usually someone gets 100 every year, but NO ONE got full marks in 2 unit for 2006.

I would have to say 2005, like many other people haha. It is certainly challenging, esp after Q9b).

Interesting trend so far (with 5 people, lol). But let's see the trend...this will help me to predict what kind of 2008 HSC would be like...

I think it will be moderate to hard, im guessing with a moderate paper and really fucken hard Q9 - 10 (it seems to be the new trend haha).

i think most of them are around the same difficulty, but i cant really tell because most questions from 1-8 seem the same to me. its just the questions i have to think more or cant do in q9-10

so i think this yrs one will be normal, with some hard ones at the end like always but predicting what these hard ones will be is the hard part

I don't know. I rarely lose marks from Q9 and 10 but rather, I lose few marks from questions from 1-8.

And yeah, I don't judge paper based on Q1-8 because they are all similar every year but Q9-10 can get pretty varied in terms of difficulty. I found 2003 hardest because it just took me the longest time to get around.

YES! the only question I found not bad after 8 was the financial loan repayment. everything else was gay.

Everything was okay until question 10b.

It was like running into a brick wall. But I figured it out eventually.

I think HSC 2003 can be summed up like that. Same can apply to 2005.
Agreed. BOS can be so fucking cruel sometimes.

CSSA 2008 was... interesting...

It wasn't too bad, but it certainly wasn't the easiest of papers.

2008 CSSA was easy. It really didn't give me any indication of how hard the HSC paper would be like in reality.
