    Why do you stick around on the HSC forums post-HSC? (Not a roast, genuinely curious as I was thinking of doing the same)

    Question 16 Predictions??

    Yeah I'm gonna doubt probability and complex for the last q and thank fuck because I'm shit at those lmaaoo Honestly Conics would be cool, or mechanics ~ If I just get like 65+/70 for Q1-14, then I can scrape marks in Q15 and Q16 (I normally do well in Q15, like 10+, kinda weird) and get my...

    How are you studying for the exam?

    You will certainly get an E4 man don't worry about it! Any 80 will easily scale to a low 90s at least xP ~ I got 71 in my trials, so most of my HSC paper results have been higher than that, if I can get even 90 scaled I'll be stoked :D

    Band 6 cutoff predictions

    From rawmarks.info, it looks like low 80s typically gets a b6 scaled Tbh, Paper 1 definitely felt more difficult, but not as hard as people have made it out to be ~ Paper 2 also wasn't crazy difficult, but I don't think it was easier than any years so I'd say that the b6 cutoff would be...

    How are you studying for the exam?

    *It's really hard to reply to everyone D:* To JaxsenW and gallen88, I can totally relate to you guys xD ~ I reckon we can all get E4 scaled! ~ My weak areas are polynomials, complex and harder 3u tbh Mechanics is honestly quite a repetitive topic, so once you see the range of questions they can...

    How are you studying for the exam?

    Hey guys, with the exam in 3 days, I was wondering what everyone's final preparations are? I'm at around a ~70-75% raw mark range, looking to try and get around a raw 80% for the exam to ensure a niiice scaled mark xD What about you guys?

    Breaking up during HSC exams

    The real question here is do you still like the person? Because it doesn't sound like you do tbh Me and my girlfriend during the HSC have setup a timetable together so we around 8~ study done (in theory) and only talk during breaks that we have set out. That way we get study done and can talk...

    Didn't see the quote in creative writing stimulus

    If I'm going to be honest, it did mention that you had to incorporate the quote - If you add it in poorly, you don't get marks for it. If you don't add it in at all, you don't get marks for it and they take it as not engaging with the stimulus. HOWEVER, if you have made a very good attempt at...

    HSC Standard/Advanced Paper 1 Exam Thoughts

    Yo we did Frank Hurley as well, I didn't find the question to be too difficult ~ For my pre-made essay, all my discoveries were "New" so I also argued against the question, but they were also "Not joyful" so I agreed with that part xD ~ For my related, the discoveries were "Not new," so again...

    HSC Standard/Advanced Paper 1 Exam Thoughts

    It was reasonably difficult tbh, but felt similar to my trials: Section 1 was definitely weird, but upon looking back I am confident ~ Section 2 really REALLY threw me off at first, but since then I think I have done well and hopefully they see my 2 perspectives Section 3 I really wished for 2...

    Do I have to remember my Student Number?

    I believe for English they give you a personalised exam booklet that has your student number printed on it. For different exams however, it would probably be necessary to know your student number.

    Eng Adv Stimuli and Essay Questions Prediction?

    For discovery my prescribed and related texts are in separate paragraphs. So I have 2 paragraphs for prescribed, 2 for 1st related and 1 for my 2nd related just in case. So basically just make a paragraph that would in theory replace one of your 1st related paragraphs.

    HSC Stress

    You'll be fine, what other people have said about has been pretty positive. In reality it is just another exam, yes it means a lot but it is no different to the other ones you have done. And considering past papers exist, you can basically do the exam right now over and over again. So you will...

    Eng Adv Stimuli and Essay Questions Prediction?

    Actually I went through the Rubric after my previous comment, and they haven't really touched on Confronting and Provocative discoveries, this would honestly be a gift I think for a lot of people, including myself.
