I hope so. Or at least I hope for more interesting and extended questions.

I believe it will be applying complex numbers in order to derive some ridiculous inequality/identity/exact value of a trig ratio.

Hi all, I am trying to get an accurate idea of what my moderated internal mark may be for english advanced. School rank: ~150 through the years My internal rank: 19/60 Past school data for the subject: 2021: 3 Band 6s, 62% in Band 5 and 6, Average HSC mark = 81 2020: 2 Band 6s, 68% in Band 5...

Infinity/Infinity is not the appropriate way to find limits, you need to consider dominance laws. Exponentials dominate algebraic terms which dominates logarithms. And the dominant factor is the one that dictates how the function behaves as x approaches infinity.

I wonder why they had included the image of the scholar speaking to the camera for LFR. Was that something you guys analysed visually for your analysis? Or did they just put it to orient students into what scene the dialogue was from?

My thoughts; Mod A - A bit of a unconventional extract but I liked it because it forced you to actually consider the textual conversation/interpretations (at least for KR3/LFR) Mod B - Pretty standard and adaptable. Although the idea of entrapment within Eliot's poetry forced me to think deeply...

Alright everyone, time to get some rest. So, in more than one way... Good night and good luck!

Same timetable for me... not that I'm complaining about the long gaps lol.

The exam authors be looking through the putnam papers for ✨inspiration ✨

For the Ext. 2 paper, MC question 4, aren't B and D equivalently correct answers?

Continuing from that step, let the fraction be rcistheta, then... You could then say, similarly, for z-1/z+1=cis(3pi/4), z=cot(3pi/8) etc. Then you have derived all the 4 solutions.

This is exactly what I'm thinking. Finding probability and z-scores, exact values, working with logs of any base, evaluating recurring decimals, calculating with series etc. are all supposed to be operations that you need to figure out, not have a calculator do for you.

Yes. You really can't have a good range of ideas if you only discuss 1 poem.

The NESA "workbook" is not really a resource for practicing. It basically has the paper, full mark responses for each section as written by students in the exam, and some commentary from the markers. Basically it helps you see what makes a good response, but doesn't really help you practice your...

Pilot G2s are great! I recommend you try out the 0.7mm ink though, it's smoother which will help you to write faster.

The exam pages have thicker lines - I think 6 to 8 pages is about 900 words which is doable for anyone with exam pressure and enough planning.

If you've particularly enjoyed topics 4, 5 and 6 in prelim then I think you will enjoy hsc eco - it goes much beyond basics into the economics of the real world and the issues we face.

It's good that you enjoy and do well in mod 4 because a good part of hsc content is based on those concepts. You will need an understanding of mod 1 and 2 for mod 5, but it's easy enough to revise and if your new school is better then you should be able to do it well. Maths Ext. 2 is also...

I think maths is the only subject where prelim content effectively carries over to the hsc.

You shouldn't really need to plan for short answer (except maybe a quick outline in the column of your page for a 6 marker). I recommend planning the essay for about 5 minutes, but definitely not more than 10. Try doing practice trials so that you can get an idea of your own pacing and style.
