2005 CSSA Trial - Mark Estimations!! (1 Viewer)

[Stefano]

Go ahead - estimate your RAW mark.
Please be relatively honest and perhaps even account for mistakes.

I'm doing this so that we all get an idea of where we stand. I will go first.

Estimated Mark: 40%

 

[withoutaface]

I'll do it at uni tomorrow and tell you then.

 

[Trev]

~50% haha

 

[queenie]

yea, im prob around the 50% mark too.

 

[Antwan23q]

i reckon i went fair good so im sayin 60-70%, no chance me gettin over that

 

[nanashi]

woot! going for 80-85%

 

[AreYouAlright?]

~65% Optimistic @ 70% i spent so long looking at the paper wondering why i was sitting there doing that and not over with the 3uniters doind advanced maths... then as my maths teacher collected the paper he looked at me and said "What??? Didn't you finish the last question?" i could of shot him right there.

HAHA!

I still don't know what Q7 or Q8 look like... I went so f****'en slow, because I was shocked at the difficulty... *sigh*...

 

[AreYouAlright?]

I knew the CSSA Ext2 Maths would be rank but no one ever said to me it was typical for q 7 8 to be easier than some in 1,2,3,4 so while i was getting bogged down at the beginnin and all the way thru the easiest question on the last page i didn't get to attempt. I hate my maths teacher, he knows i suck at 4u and i know he only knows the proofs coz he's got a textbook it's a mutual understanding.

 

[Stefano]

HOLY *****!!! Q.7 and Q.8 were EASY!???

OMG DONT TELL ME I MISSED EASY MARKS... *Falls to the ground*

F**k this. I'm gonna play some Counter-Strike:Source. Anyone wanna join me ?

 

[yrtherenonames]

Didn't they give you reading time for the 4unit paper?

 

[Stefano]

Yes, 5 minutes. But I started doing the first questions in my head and was recovering from the sight of some Q4 & Q.6 questions...

In other words, I knew my stuff quite well, but didn't put it onto the paper too effectively

It's one of the frustrating features of CSSA papers. Questions 7 and 8 can be some of the easiest in the paper.

 

[Antwan23q]

omg, i didnt know the formular for the surface area. so i couldnt do it

 

[nanashi]

omg, i didnt know the formular for the surface area. so i couldnt do it

i managed to get it. dun think there is a formula.
took me ages to figure it out... wasnt worth the marks though...

 

[Antwan23q]

it was 8 marks bro
oh well, i reckon i lost about 20-25 marks because i didnt do them

 

[nanashi]

i wasted time for 8 marks when i could have been doing something in q5 (9 marks i didnt get there)

 

[Antwan23q]

once again, same

 

[yook]

its inevitable i failed...
i didnt know surface area either..

weird, i found seven and eight hard =]
maybe coz im dumb!!!!!!!!! ahh i hate 4u..

Hence the use of the reading time...though once I saw the probability question in Q8 I immediately left it. I came back to it later though and it wasn't as bad as I thought it might have been.
