I reckon 2003 will be hard since 2002 was quite easy.

I have already done it :P

Yes 2002 was easy, but last year's class in my school bombed out on it.

bombed out means do bad btw, i just discovered that recently

hmm...what about 2001??

**jm1234567890** · 26 Sep 2003, 11:00 AM

2001 was average

How do you do a post on Maths?

It's Maths... the 2002 paper was easy compared to my school's Trial (but it's renowned for having soem of the hardest internal assessments in the state...)

2003 won't be hard if you just do heaps of past papers from over the last 5-10 years and soem from other schools maybe...

It works if you do it, but if you don't... well...

Exam papers are very different in the Exam hall or wherever you do your Exams. I can tell you, the Integrate-twice question wasn't as obvious in the Exam (last, last question of 2002).

But i found 2001 easier than 2002, so by looking at that arithmetic series, 2003 will either increase in difficulty or go down to an easy standard.

Either way, it shouldn't be as bad a the 4U exam.

You're talking predicting between a sine wave sequence and an exponential sequence
