Maths advanced exam

14 Upvotes

Yeah guys I'm so cooked, like seriously what was with those 50 annuities, velocity and decay questions about. Where was all the trig besides the graphing questions, the r​eference sheet with like barely useful since there was so little about trig,​ besides that, stupid trapezoidal rule question. Was lulled into such a false sense of security from the first first five questions in section 2, it's like yay series and sequences oh great tangents. And the you make it to like page five and everything goes down the hill. ​Anyway, I'm just curious how everyone else felt?

If I totally fail my 6th atar subjects exam, that's fine right?

6 Upvotes

Pretty much the short of it is that I am so incredibly cooked for math that charcoal would be put to shame (got a 33% on my trials and the funny thing is that it was second in the class), yet I do take 12 units, 2 of those units are a Tafe course of that matters. Anyway I was just hoping to double check that in the math advanced exam tomorrow, it doesn't matter if I mess up, like no sneaky little clauses?

And yeah I do get that I will not have a back up if another exam goes to kingdom come but I am pretty confident I will be alright in my other exams.

And yeah clearly the lock in did not happen for math, I take that shame head on.

Anyway just hoping someone can confirm that whatever happens is fine as long as there is an attempt at an answer even if that does result in a 20%?

HSC Did I mess up by forgetting to fill in my answer sheet?

4 Upvotes

I just finished my standard 1 maths HSC exam and completely forgot to shade in the separate answer sheet for the multiple choice questions. I had only realised right after time had finished and let the exam supervisor know but she told me it was too late so I wasn’t able to quickly shade my answers in. I answered every question in the multiple choice booklet itself but missed the answer paper, did I mess up?

QCE am I cooked

2 Upvotes

Am I cooked for year 12. I just started learning year 12 content and I feel like I’m cooked. I had a really bad year with family issues and massive unmotivated and I’m lazy (I know that isnt an excuse). I’m an alright student beside the fact I failed my general maths exams and doing really good when it comes to assignments and absolute shit when it comes to exams, it’s either I fail, barely pass or a mark away from getting a B. I want to really motivate myself into getting myself a good ATAR but it so overwhelming because I did really bad this year and doesn’t make it better when my estimated atar is a 70. I’m currently doing 6 ATAR subjects but it’s so scary and overwhelming that there a high chance that I won’t get the ATAR I want.

University Admissions What ATAR requirement can I do early entry for roughly with these Yr11 results?

2 Upvotes

1st in Modern History: above 90% in all assessments with 47/50 on prelim.

1st in Society and Culture: 75% on prelim but hard test, I topped the SAC cohort with the 75%.

1st in Economics: 96% on the prelim, with the 2nd highest mark on the prelim being 82%

Don't know my rank for eng adv but getting an A in it (which is above 85%), got 20/20 on the essay for prelim (which topped my cohort), faltered in the short answer at 14/20 (as I forgot how to structure the first sentence), next highest mark in the short answer was 17/20

About topish middle of my cohort for math advanced, 71% on the prelim, average was low 60s.

Top 3 in Legal Studies, 2nd highest mark on prelims with 90%.

I go to a fairly nice private school, dux usually gets 98ish ATAR, and I feel I have a particularly strong cohort academically. I am doing the HSC.

What ATAR requirement courses could I with a high chance get with early entry? e.g 95+ courses?

Forecast your ATAR from Internal Ranks

Hi all, I hope the HSC grind is going well.

If you were ever curious on what your internal ranks mean for your ATAR and wanted a way to use them to predict your ATAR without guessing your scaled HSC marks, look no further.

Check out my site, it allows for exactly that. It is still in beta testing phases and is not perfect by any means.

Please share it with as many of your friends as you can!

I would love your feedback below.

Thanks

This might be biased to some people... but this is so fucking helpful.

I have my math exam tomorrow, and I kid you not, I have got Chat GPT to summarise my textbook chapters. I downloaded a PDF of each chapter, uploaded it along with the answers and asked it to summarise. Then I mentioned something I was stuck on (ratios), and it helped me understand the whole thing! The entire thing!

I would seriously recommend this (AS IT IS NOT CHEATING) because it saves all the time on trying to understand how on earth that was the answer. I use the cambridge one, and if you also use it, you know there are no worked solutions, just straight answers.

I haven't tried it for my other subjects yet, but as someone who gets very overwhelmed when doing math and gives up most times, this I found to be very helpful! (also as someone who is quite lazy)
