I think I've only dropped about twenty marks, and considering the difficulty of the exam (3u what?) I think I did okay.

That was like a harder harder 3u paper I swear. (A harder 3u paper being comprised of 3u questions from a 4u paper)

Till now none, considering solutions have not come out yet. Pray it stays the same.

My maths teacher said he reckons that because there is a shortage of Maths teachers, they don't want a large influx of students in the coming years taking maths Ext 1 & 2/2U because there are not enough teachers to handle it.

I didn't notice "use... the product rule" in the induction question and did first principles instead, so that will probably cost me a mark. may have lost a mark in the last section, since my working wasn't set out well, not sure though

other than that, nothing that I can think of

That would actually make sense... there were some articles on SMH about the lack of teaching prowess math teachers have too.

regardless. it's cruel of them to give 2009 the hardest papers in recent years.

2u and 3u i talk from experience

general and 4u i hear from my friends doing said courses

09'ers get all the shit.

1st, we miss out on these laptops that were proposed to be given to us a year ago

then they drop the ATAR bomb on us

now they are changing the english syllabus so there is MULTIPLE CHOICE IN THE HSC EXAM

lol, guys.

a word of advice, if you kill a frog, no matter how much you dissect it, or in what fancy way you take it apart, the frog isnt coming back to life. move on and worry about other frogs yet to come
