Will the HSC English paper markers have some knowledge or have read the prescribed texts that are being analysed in the essays they are marking?

From Quanta to Quarks We didn't get to choose but I like it anyway Apparently in the HSC, the each of the options are scaled appropriately so that you can't just do an "easier" option and get more marks. That's what my Physics teachers says at least

Re: Recommended Texbooks/Study Guides for Preliminary HSC? I disagree with many here I prefer the Excel textbook over the Jacaranda simply because the content is straight to the point whereas the Jacaranda gives way too much information on the context. Mind me, I have only the first edition of...

Don't memorise the formulae - most of the times, the "standard" set of equations won't suit the question Instead, derive them and know how Always start with the second derivative of y ie. y (double dot) = -g Integrate it, y (dot) = -gt + C Does it have an additional vertical velocity? If it...

Thank you so much, I understand it much better now Wow that essay length response isn't a Band 6 range? As if man! Haha

LOL @ the videos! Good procrastination, less than a week before English I should be going through my essays but I watch these instead hahaha

Consider (x + root x)2 = x2 + x + 2x.root x (note 2x.root x >= 0) >= x2 + x = x(x + 1) Therefore x + root x >= root [x(x + 1)]

Re: 回复: Who's failing the external Maths Ext 2 exam? Mm what do you mean? Your external mark is what you get from the HSC And since we all haven't done it yet, how do you know that you're failing? I think you mean the internal mark Yea like what others say, just keep practising Aim to do the...

6) There is a row of 5 coloured lights each with its own switch. When switched on , each lghts i equally likely to show green, red or amber. If all lights are switched on, What is the probabblity that c) exactly 3 lights are green? Let P(E) be the probability of 3 lights exactly green There are...

4) what is the inverse function of 2x/(x^2+1) ? Since the original function is y = f(x) = 2x / (x2 + 1) The equation for the inverse function is x = 2y / (y2 + 1) Now we rearrange the equation so that y is the subject x = 2y / y2 + 1 xy2 + x - 2y = 0 Notice how it is a quadratic equation in...

Or better yet, don't do the HSC at all if you want to bludge

4U is fun because it's challenging!

Phew finally someone normal.

Re: HSC Starts tomorrow? Yes it does make a difference It takes a week to memorise essays And I haven't yet so yes it does
