I'm pretty worried you are applying for UNSW, considering you can't spell "fees".

92.95 I'm stoked as hell! I only needed 79.. hahahahah... Well congrats to everyone on doing so well this year! Good luck in your future!

Reasonably happy with my results. English (adv): 82 Chemistry: 83 Physics: 85 Maths Ext.1 81 Maths Ext.2 65 I'm looking at a UAI which might just scrape into the low 90's, or at least high 80's. SAM has said 92.4 (but that's from 2005 so you know).

I will launch a daring commando raid on the BOS Headquarters. And then politely ask them for my results.

I thought this was a question involving the discriminant... don't you have to find values of b which make the discriminant 0, so as to give only one solution (and therefore make 12x +b a tangent)? Could be wrong, but this is how I went about it, not sure what answer I wound up with.

iii) 0.07? That seems awfully low... Obviously the probability will be less than 0.5, because the home team will have just as much chance of winning as the away team. If the chance of the home team getting more points was just 0.07, then the chance of the away team getting more points must have...

I think you're right there Gecko. You could probably answer this question similarly to a binomial probability question, but as a trinomial instead.. or maybe it could be simplified to a binomial somehow. I didn't bother with part iii anyway, just answered parts i and ii, got 81 ways because its...

Awesome! I got that too.. I didn't show mcuh working out, you reckon they'll take marks off? I showed the integral and stuff, but didn't bother with elemental volume or writing sigma notation etc. And here I thought I couldn't do volumes! Yay!

I skipped the part where you try to work out a and b, and guessed them as (1 + 1/n 1/2) and (1 - 1/n 1/2). I basically just stole the stuff in ii), though I know its most likely wrong.

I had that idea in mind, couldn't work it out for some reason. Sucks.

Really? I reckon complex numbers was easy 0_o I probably stuffed conics, mechanics, harder 3 unit, a little bit of integration and most of mechanics.

'sif remember standard integrals..

Re: Is anyone else as fucked as i am? fucked like a cheap whore in singapore? May you rest easier knowing that I am one of you. Yeah, I'm only aiming for like 50%.. I got 44% in trials, and my highest assesment score has been like high 50's (or possibly somewhere in the 60's after scaling)...

Essentially you don't have to ace any assessment tasks, you just need a rank of 1st, 'cause if your school is good enough your assessment will be moderated very highly. Then, as you have a rank of 1st in assessment, you are guaranteed the highest HSC exam marks, and if these are high enough you...

It depends on how much study you want to / are willing / are able to do anyway, and also how understanding your partner is.
