Re: Thoughts on CSSA 2U Mathematics Exam??

no idea on the probably section. To be honestly probably around an 85+ just because I would have lost so many mark on the probability shit and on a few other bits which I was like wtf (the interest one? with the 250/month - no idea how to do)

You had to use par II, and sub it into part 3? i think? to get your answer.

Well in part ii you had to show that HK^2 = 2-2(............).

Then in part iii you showed HK^2 = 2-2cos(a-b).

Then you set them both equal to each other, the 2s cancel, and so does -2, to be left with what was required.

Re: Thoughts on CSSA 2U Mathematics Exam??

WTF was Q16 c?
Q15 a was a bitch, probability was easy as heck.

Rest of the exam was generally easy, hopefully 75/100, that's what I'm aiming for in the HSC to get high band 5. Damn, that exam ruined my week.
