    HSC Physics Marathon 2013-2015 Archive

    re: HSC Physics Marathon Archive I guess just advantages of AC? AC Advantages: - Easier voltage to be stepped-up and down. - Allows high-voltage transmissions. - Less power loss. DC Disadvantages: - Much harder to be stepped-up and down. - High power loss. - Much more fatal discharge. (Put...

    Advice for cramming?

    The key is discipline. You know you can study - it's just that you're finding reasons not to. A day and a half is enough to fit a whole subject's syllabus, and also do some past HSC questions. As you go through the syllabus jot down important points, and points you don't quite understand and...

    Zero. A lot of them complain that it's because of the school, teachers, ethics, blah blah. I am dedicated to prove them wrong, and that school truly doesn't matter. Also because I attend my school I get +5 bonus ATAR as well as +1 just for being school captain (for some universities), so a total...

    I got the latter one too! :) I believe in myself, and you should too! Break the boundaries, my friend. EDIT: I think the highest at my school ever was ~91 ATAR. I'm ready to break it. :)

    re: HSC Physics Marathon Archive Woohoo! Band 6 here I come! (I thought to myself that wasn't valid, and I'm an idiot for forgetting that it's not impossible to hang it on the roof of a moving vehicle.)

    A collection of HSC Advice: What *not* to do

    It looks like you have a similar case to mine. I usually get over-confident and don't study for assessments because in class I'm able to answer pretty much everything. The key is to continually practice these skills by answering as much questions you can find. (At least for Math.) Don't study...

    HSC Physics Marathon 2013-2015 Archive

    re: HSC Physics Marathon Archive I'll give it a go. A inertial frame refers to a frame of reference in which no experiment can be done to determine whether you're moving at a constant speed or at rest. A non-inertial frame of reference refers to one that can be observed to be moving at a...

    I do understand that, but course ATAR requirements are not my concern. I don't even know what I want to do, but what I have my eye on is a $20,000 scholarship if I achieve an ATAR above 90.00. If I don't achieve it, it will just feel like I let twenty grand down the drain.

    Yay for us doing high-scaling subjects?

    Is above 99 likely- ATAR estimate please

    Since trials are often much harder than the actual HSC, I'm sure your marks can only go higher. That means that getting above 99, specially with your ranks and school rank, is very likely. That doesn't mean it's 100% going to happen though. Just do your extreme best, aim for state rank for all...

    Holy crap I just went through the ATAR result forum for last year. I'm getting anxious right now for my result. :(

    General thoughts: HSC chemistry 2015

    Maybe industry = production of smoke detectors?
