I usually get bad marks in easy maths tests....
so i dont really like the SC maths....

Its kinda like the general course, you gotta type in the calculator carefully etc... and not make silly mistakes..

n that isn't me..

which is why the SC is crap and doesnt matter at all..

now 4u maths,.... thats a real subject.
Get 96+ in that and u will have my respect

Band 6 in SC is extremely easy since the maths is like YR6 maths(if you don't believe me check out the SC past papers). As long as your brain isn't severely damaged before you go to do the exam you will DEFINITELY get a Band 6
I got 87 - band 5, I'm coming first in 4unit maths.

Q.E.D.

SC maths is fairly easy. Just make sure you understand what you're doing, and how to do it. Do a few past papers the weekend before, and you're set. I pulled a 92, barely tried :p... SC doesnt matter when you get to prelim, prelim doesnt matter when yuo get to HSC and HSC don't matter when you get to uni :p

I was last in every exam in maths in year 9 and 10. Dead set last. No matter how I tried. No joke. Teacher gave me individual lunchtime classes. She said I'd only get band 4 at most.

I hated maths.

Band 6 I then did receive, beating heaps of people in my class.

There's my story for you.

I did the SC last year (2004) studied not a jot and got 99. The only thing that bothered me in the test was that the questions were so easy there had to be some trick to it - but no. My friend got 84 without even starting the last section (worth 15 marks).... so the SC is nothing to worry about.

Study the easy shit, because they never put the hard mother fucking questions in the test. ROFL they even give you the formulas too :)

my advice to those year 10 who want to get band 6 in maths.... do a past sc test every few weeks to make sure you understand the basics of maths because the sc test is set so EVERYONE in the state can do it. so if you do advanced (not sure with intermediate) its important that you know the basics because i don't think anything from the advanced course is examined... i got 90 and did hardly any study and just the on-line multi choice tests..

oh and remember the non-calculator section.. its easy to forget how to do the basic's without one eg changing fractions into percentages and what 5% of $4.50 is etc...

to get a band6 you must have the ability to bullshit :uhhuh: but in maths, you must know how to add, subtract, multiply and divide - goodluck, you wont need it though
