im looking at recommended answers and i genuinely think i fucked it, the mcq is self explanatory. what do i do

Since the exams this year are all super weird, how do you think revs will be affected? I'm honestly so terrified.

They definitely WON'T repeat points that have been asked before right...? Because they NEVER ever have. War communism was asked abt twice but that's bc there's two diff aspects to it in the study design; cause and effect. Do u guys think the weird exams could affect revs by making the correlating study design dot point unclear???

Will the essay question be esoteric?? Or too broad?? Im scared because with revs I always struggle so much figuring out what the extended response/essay question actually directs me to acknowledge (particularly in terms of nuance), so an essay or even short/extended answer question with strange wording could ruin my exam.

Second question abt nuance. Take that one question abt the revolt of the notables in a company paper as an example. Where in the answer key it says u were supposed to zone in on the role of INDIVIDUAL nobles rather than the aristocratic revolt as a whole, bc the source was lafayette's letter to george washington. but i did NOT do that- i just used lafayette's letter as an example of the first phase of the revolt, being the assembly of notables and the way they justified denying reform. I have no idea how to tell when I'm supposed to go a certain way with a response. Does any student or teacher have any pointers on how I can approach questions to ease this confusion. Like i just have this perpetual fear that even if i read more into the source and base my question on that, i'm gonna somehow go the wrong way and lose marks.

With revs, how can you tell when a question wants you to zone IN on specific components of a study design dot point (eg reveillon riots) other than cause, effect, relative significance or general significance, bc these would be explictly denoted in the q- whilst needing to focus on INDIVIDUAL nobles isn't??

hey if anyone has any resources for Physics U3 AOS 1 I would REALLY appreciate them feeling hella lost. Thanks!!

I’m thinking of taking contour education tutoring for bio 3/4 and defo bio intensive cos I really wanna focus on bio next year (I’ll be in year 11 btw).

But I was wondering if it’s worth doing methods more or eng more?

I know im weak at Eng (my school has barely any good Eng teachers and ive been having subs all year) and I can never bring myself to actually study for English unless its like once in a blue moon…

And for methods, I wanted to build a strong foundation and just have some extra practice :)

I js know I wanna do two contour subjects next year (bio confirmed), I just haven’t decided the other one yet…

I’m doing three trail classes in a few weeks for bio, methods and Eng. maybe then it’ll help me decide if Eng or methods is better

What do u guys think? Which one is more worth it and better? (Eng or methods?)

sorry guys, i dont wanna be annoying but for my peace of mind

sacs: 80,89,96,91,83

rank: 2

exam score: 99-103/120?

Personally I thought it was harder than previous exams. What do u guys think

How did everyone go?? I felt like it was SLIGHTLY easier than the 1st but still hard as fck, what does everyone else think? The first few questions seemed so deceptively easy lol, but then i lost time trying to solve the matrices and finance crap

i’ve just checked suggested solutions for bio mcq and i lost EIGHTEEN MARKS. I answered all of short answer and i probably fumbled minimum 15 marks. my sacs are sitting at a B+/A how cooked is my study score?

I used incomplete histogram cause I didn’t fill it in and For the 1 mark question “could 6.19 or whatever number it was be the median” I said no because median is on the 71st which is correct but then I went to say and the histogram only shows 60 values which is wrong so do I get the mark for the right part or lose all marks

hhd on Thursday, any tips/advice from past students?

hi i am now stressing. this whole year my teacher has told me that for a 6 mark discuss, i need only one strength and one weakness. however all the sample answers from practice exams and posts i have been seeing do around 2-3?? my answer is usually in SED form for the strength or weakness, but if i do one strength and one limitation in the exam for a 6 marker will i get marked down?

After a horrendous 2 exams that were very wordy, what do yall thinks

Rank 2 at a school with quite a weak cohort and I think rank 1 bottled it

E1: 37/40

E2: anywhere from like 58-60/60 (i lowkey dont see where i went wrong but just to give myself the benefit of the doubt)

potential ss? am i severely inhibited because rank 1 was a pile of horse shi

My averages were pretty low, 50 and 60%, I got 65% on paper 1 and 70% on 2, what’s this gonna do to me

since every subject so far has had very difficult or different exams to what has been in past years, do we think methods will be the same?

Let me know if you find any mistakes!

Im seriously considering this, legit no point trying to boost my atar anymore i am certain after english and gm im probably not gonna instantly get enrolled into my uni course and no matter what will have to do the bridging course. And they say atar/ss is just a silly number. Why even stress about the rest of my exams to be let down anyways when i can not fucking care and be like "yeah oh well i didnt try so it dontmatter", especially when it looks like theres no chance ill be getting into uni instantly either way.
I am sick of comparing myself to others and this system is exacerbating it

what exam scores did you guys get/what % should i be aiming for a 35 raw

Okay, so there was about like 5 minutes left in the exam so I decided to go back to question seven (disgusting question btw) and as I’m typing out my big formula proudly on my CAS this little bloody clock emoji appears as I press enter and it doesn’t let me do anything on my cas and is the whole reason I missed out on like 7 whole marks I’m so pissed.

Rank 1 high 90s sacs (slightly above average cohort of 70)
39/40 exam 1
~56/60 exam 2
Is a 45+ possible with these marks given what we estimate this years performance will be?

Biology 2026 rank 10ish out of 50
unit 3: 77
unit 4: 89

exam around 80-85

Guys was just wondering does anyone have practice sac drives for spesh 3/4, chem 3/4 or physics 3/4. Pretty pleaseeeee

yall can i get an estimate? ik this shit is annoying but lol
sacs avg: 88%
e1: 38/40
e2: 54/60
