Would you know approximately ?/135 would be a prize?

you're ideally aiming for 100+ although it can be more or less depending on the year and how everyone goes

Not a clue mate sorry. At a guess something like a cutoff of 115? I can't really remember how difficult it gets.

I got 90 in 2010 and got a prize.

Those maths exams are bloody impossible!! Does anyone ever get full marks? I can answer like the first three and that's it :/

I've seen some people get full marks - they get a Peter O'halloran award or something like that.

The cutoffs for prizes vary, depending on your year level and state. Like in Singapore for example, the cutoff would probably be higher than most of the Australian states.

I find it really amazing the way some people can get full marks, because the last few questions are always really hard. I suppose natural ability plays a big role in these comps.

I actually got all of the last 5 questions but screwed up Q20-25 LOL but yeah, it's really hard and it's, I suppose, luck in some ways.

Wow! when did you get all of the last 5 questions? Which paper did you do and in which year? Amazing, man!
