I dropped French. Biggest relief no longer studying two languages. Plus the teacher was a complete incompetent idiot.

So I have the Physics practical 'Using a pendulum to determine g' tomorrow, and it counts towards my HSC. Anyone have any useful points ?

Just know what reliability, accuracy & validity are :\ good luck

What raw mark out of 70 in this year's Extension 1 Maths exam would people expect to get a 95 Examination mark?

Going off previous years and equating it out for the changes in total marks, my guess would be mid-high 50's/70.

sy, if you are expecting a 65/70, that will be a 97 exam mark, and possibly 98.

Risk it.

yeah boi

okay

Wild wants to know how easy it'd be to get 93+ in SOR I

And whether he should drop physics to pick up SOR I (he'd go from 12 to 11 units).

Don't think anyone does that here. But for Physics, a band 6 is 76/100 (in 2011) so a 93 would be 83ish/100 I'd guess.

No idea about SOR I. But really it comes down to his strengths and work ethic.

Well I do SOR lol. So obviously I'm biased towards him picking it up Then we can share notes and shit. And physics sucks whoo

Anyone else got an opinion on dis?

But Physics is one of those subjects where you really need to enjoy it to study it. Which one does he hate more? [Dat thief kisser blocked me on steam]

SOR I is out of 50, so I assume he means either 46+ or 47+/50. Overall, SOR isnt too difficult (dont underestimate it though) and with a bit of hard work and the right strategy I think a mark in the low-mid 90's is definitely achievable.

Sharing notes and papers are good, but hard work and ethics are the most important.

Ext 2 eng > sor 1

Well he's failed physics exams lol. I'm sure he hates physics but its not like he can hate SOR when he doesn't know what it'll be like. He's just not sure whether it'd be worth it or if it'd be easy to get a good mark.

Ext 2 is a lot of work, Wild doesn't want to do it and I doubt you could pick it up in wk6?

Only he can determine if he will put in effort. But I would suggest the one he is most interested in.

 

[Aysce]

Well, I go tutoring for 3U/4U, Physics and English... and I'm still kinda alive...

Which tutor for English? Private or college?

But yeah, sounds like a gifted kid. Expect him to do well.

You're on the verge of death. He goes to a private one with a HSC marker - Yeah he is, a pity that I couldn't convince him to move to a better school but meh.

 

[SpiralFlex]

One you finish high school you will find that tutors were not necessary.

Well, I can handle it. I don't even need to believe I can. I just can.
