    Work required for a state rank?

    Hello all, the HSC is nearing and I have decided that my aim for 3U and 4U maths is to get a state rank if possible - i.e. 83/84 in 3U and 117/120 in 4U (correct me if I am wrong). Now I ask: how do you study hard enough to obtain them? Is it by just doing past papers? Or using several textbooks...

    Theres about 118 people in my grade. So 2-3 buses will be needed - that's usually the case. And we've been there as a grade before, in year 10.

    Highlighting & Remembering Notes

    For remembering notes, yeah I wouldn't memorise them. I would just read the content in the text book, then read the same concepts from different books and websites - as this gives you more of a better understanding of their contexts, makes their purpose more clear, and could be more easier to...

    Effective study methods!

    Mate just practice, practice and practice. If you happen to find concepts difficult, ask your teacher or if that still doesn't help, research on the internet. Understanding the concepts in topics such as probability and motion, can get confusing, so it's important that before you start...

    Arghhh question 6 was horrible! Just the tent and circle geometry questions got to me. However questions 7 and 8 weren't as insane as I expected them to be. I guess it's more revision for circles and volumes for me.

    What makes Maths Extension 2 so hard?

    Extension 2 maths is relatively difficult because of many abstract concepts. Some of it is actually pure maths! The volumes topic and some of Harder 3U is part of pure maths. In order to actually understand 4 unit, you really got to analyse the thinking behind each concept and what it's general...
