i thought i did pretty crap in the exam... i didnt think it was piece, easy... as most of the two unit paper i sat for... this year was much more straight forward, allowing 2 unit students to also pick up some extra marks.

I thought this paper, really benefited it 3 unit, and even me being a 3unit student i felt as though, it was not simple, definately a hard paper, compares to other years

This was the worst exam out of my HSC so far
the tragic thing is that this subject actually counts for me
at least your lucky illmatic that maths doesn't count 4 u
I only do 11 units though :eek: not 12
Hopefully, if everything is better than maths, only that 1 unit will count
<3 1unit religion for that :)

The reason you guys found it hard is because the BOS suddenly decided it might be fun to apply 3U skills to 2U core. And yes 2000-2004 were harder than previous years but they still were based mainly on 2U applications. Anyone who thinks it was as easy as previous years is wrong. It was an exam for extension students. I know several people who got 90+ on last years exam and are now doing 4U and they averaged around 60 on this paper. I go to a selective school where General is not offered and my trial was easier. That's saying something.

Yep. Ditto. 2hrs a night since week 3 or 4 of T3. To no avail: the paper took too long.
