    Official BOS Trial 2016 Thread

    Would be nice if there was a 100% (which seems possible judging the level of the 2014~15 papers), but I guess there's a chance that this year's paper may be much harder, though I doubt this considering the OP's reference to the past papers.

    Official BOS Trial 2016 Thread

    There are many ways they could be styled as closely to the HSC, but not be a reflection of its difficulty. E.g. The questions are broken up into parts with small mark allocations to each part like the HSC, but this doesn't necessarily limit the 'difficulty' of each part. The exam is also 3...

    Forced to drop to Standard by School

    I have heard of several cases in the past where students have been forced to drop from advanced to standard English (in low ranking schools), so you're definitely not the first (not that you claimed to be, but just putting it out there).

    I deleted that other thread about the potential state rankers I did not think far enough ahead to think about the issues which could arise from publicizing their names (Though all of those names were taken from results of competitions run by the AMT, ICAS, UNSW, etc. so their names have...

    The Four unit advanced level marathon...

    BoS trials are so good lol Well tbh I reckon the HSC 4U exams nowadays barely assess intelligence/problem solving/ mathematical ability anymore, while BoS trials does. So I don't think topping BoS trials will necessarily get you first in the state lol. Judging by the easiness of the post 2012...

    Re: HSC 2016 4U Marathon i) a=e $ii) logging both sides, lna= (lnx)/x. The quantity lnx/x achieves a max of 1/e, at x=e, and range is all real values$ \ <1/e. \ $Thus, there exists a real solution as long as 'a' satisfies $0<lna<1/e \ or \ lna<0, \ or \ 1< a< e^{1/e} \ and \ 0<a<=1
