I'm not too sure if this is the right place to post up some texts. I work off a lot of text books and past papers, so I just wanted to post them up for future general maths students and for any 04ers who are doing some quick cramming sessions:

can we get questions that are not in the HSC syllabus but is in the prelim syllabus? e.g taxation questions? because there was a question on taxation on the 2003 test and i coulnt remember the concept or formulas..only something about net income = gross income - tax payable or somthing like that.

yes you can the board of studies is able to have the hsc exam contain up to 30% preliminary work

 

[IP_freely]

personally i think the Jacaranda text book is the worst, imo if u wanna do good go and get the New Century Maths textbook, wat ive noticed is that the HSC questions are similar to the 1's that r in this book

Re: General Mathematics Resource Directory

The HSC exam committee is releasing their solutions on the internet for the first time this year onto the Board of Studies website.

Previously very few people have had access to these documents which were never published before. I think most people will welcome the policy change at the Board of Studies.

Here's the General Mathematics one for 2009:

http://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.a...doc/general-mathematics-sample-answers-09.pdf

Unfortunately however they did not include the solutions to the Multiple choice section. Note however the answers to this section are on the first page in another document, http://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.a..._doc/general-mathematics-marking-guide-09.pdf

Re: General Mathematics Resource Directory

Is there any multiple choice online system similar to the BOSTES one but without a time limit?
