Got the same answer for both iv and v but different working out and different values for A. For questions as complicated as this, would you still be right, or get a mark rather, if you're 0.1-0.5 or so off?

Just went through my answers and I probably got ~78 raw. Would that scrape a band 6...

Yeah you don't round it because if you put the rounded answer in the question you get something different.

HSC usually doesn't make a fuss for rounding off unless if its money questions

This test was bullshit compared to the 2012 paper.

However, provided that this has been received generally as a much harder test, what would you guys anticipate a raw mark of 60-65 allign to?

Apparently about very high band 4, low band 5.

Yes, but I think you can also leave it as a decimal since you can have .123 of a month? (.123 is approximately 4 days)

You can still leave it in decimal value can you?

I reckon I'm looking at 60 worst case, 66 best case. So probably somewhere in between :)

Is it true that your MX1 mark is scaled against your mathematics mark?

Was this paper hard enough to warrant a rant in the SMH in tomorrow's news paper?
