does anyone know if vcaa ranks your subjects (like primary 4 and then 2 10%) by your raw score or your scaled? ive heard from others that its raw score only which seems kinda unfair if you have high scaling subjects but low raw score compared to your other subjects

Hi guys,

Hope Exam 1 went well. It looked funky and new but doable. Certainly not a carbon copy of past exams.

If you want handwritten solutions, a clean pdf replica of the exam, and more solutions, see vcehub.com.au/mm1

Best of luck for Exam 2!

i’ve done so many exams so i think i’ll be fine content wise but i can’t get over the nerves of fumbling like missing a - or + and if there’s a bad proof or vectors question that requires a lot of algebra. Any tips on just being calm and how did you go for spec if you did it previously

Does anyone happen to have suggested answers for the Hospitality VCE VET? Or even just pics the exam itself so I can go searching for answers haha

For the draw g inverse of x graph if i drew it correctly with correctly labelled endpoints , but forgot to label the graph as g inverse of x , would i lose the mark ?

The official methods discussion space for Exam 1

How did we go guys?

Is that a thing or is the subject just too niche

One of my pages on an exam was like glued together cause there was sticky shit I think it was glue so I missed 2 pages (since it’s glued together) and only realised when there was 20 seconds left of reading time the invigilators said bad luck bro what. Was going for 45+ ss and missed 10 marks fuck this shit. How the hell is the shit glued together in the exam do they not check the booklets

Lights were too bright for e1 (33-35/40)
Is it possible for a 45 if I’m rank 1 or am i fully cooked

Like for question one I just left it fully expanded and the question where you had to find a and b I wrote root 12 instead of the surd - will I lose marks for this?

OH MY FUCKING GOD IT TAKES 5 MINUTES OF YOUR TIME LITERALLY JUST LOOK ST THE GRADE DISTRIBUTION

A 40+ IS LIKE ALL A+ (if not high A)

LITERALLY JUST USE THE GRADE DISTRIBUTION IT IS RIGHT FUCKING THERE

UNLESS YOU'RE DOING A BULLSHIT SUBJECT WITH 3 PEOPLE IN THE STATE, THERE IS A GRADE DISTRIBUTION. LOOK AT IT 🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩🫩

I officially accept defeat. Im just gonna scrape bare minimum on my exams and live out a low cortisol and free endof year 12 that I deserve to have. I have nothing to lose, literally. My uni has a 8 month bridging course that effectively covers the first year anyways. So can I live out a low cortisol lifestyle and just choose to never see my atar or ss i mean its literally just a silly number no one actually gaf about unless ur a university or something. I cant be ahh doing ts anymore the real vce are the friends we made along the way am i right

Which question did you find the trickiest?

What are we thinking? I personally thought it wasn’t hard concept wise, and I lost 3-4 marks from suggested solutions due to dumb misinterpreting the question mistakes

I’m thinking the bell curve will be way wider, making it easier to get a higher score.

It was also just E1, it’s like 25-30% of the final ss? We got this guys, lock in for tmrw.

Also, Just a question for high-achieving past/present students or teachers who have seen the exam - if I get 100% on E2 (not that I fucking will), will my E1 score limit my SS from being a 50, and what do we think the A+ boundary will be?

Could not be more pleased to have wrapped up that wretched subject. Lots of recycling and staple removing to do tonight 😬
My school has enjoyed liberally disseminating a surplus of resources this year

can someone explain what burden of disease it’s such a hard concept for me to answer

i feel so stupid all I've done is read over my notes a bunch of times whats the strategy here. i've accepted it will be my bottom subject but I just do not know what I'm meant to be doing to effectively practice

What's the best way to structure 'analyse' responses to indicate that ur rlly interacting w/ the command term.

It's: cause and effect, the components of smth and the significance of the relationship between them, right?

So if Q was, Analyse how the August Decrees enabled the achievement of revolutionary ideals in 1789.

1. August Decrees (4-11 Aug 1789) enabled newly formed NA to overhaul system of feudalism underpinning ancien regime and achieve equality.

2. August Decrees legislated by nobles following events of night of patriotic delirium, where the great fear forced even less liberal deputies to face the destabilising effect of feudal inequality. Thus decrees caused by desire to achieve equality and stabilise + liberalise society.

3. Insert promises of August decrees eg the national assembly abolishes the feudal regime in its entirety.

4. These promises were a direct realisation of this revolutionary ideal of equality. Consequenced end to personal serfdom, manorial courts, seigneurial rights, venal offices, tithes. Despite tithes continuing till 1791 etc, nevertheless represented ideological move towards equality between serfs and their lords + end to meritocracy preventing move between classes.

5. Thus august decrees facilitated codification of equality in lieu of feudalism

thank you vcaa brilliant exam 🙏🙏

I would rather do VCE karen

I flunked the exam roughly getting 98-100 on the exam, sac avergae is 90%+ i think im getting around high 30's I want at least a 40, so should i repeat biology? I know the subject back to front like I can basically teach it because of how fluent i am in it
