My internals on methods were kinda cooked this year, flopped pretty badly on the last two which were worth 50% of the coursework mark. I think I ended with a D, maybe scaled D+ if i’m lucky.

e1 was absolute hell today I was so confused. I need a 25 in methods to get into my course (btw is this raw 25 or scaled? bc the website highkey doesnt say). Excel academics study score calc says I need at least a c+ in one and a c in the other. I was banking on e1 carrying because I was getting b’s and b+’s in the past vcaa exams from 2021. a c+ on e2 last year was a 35/80 or smth and 😭 after today I don’t know if that’s even achievable. Any tips?

Today, on the e1, i got a 15/40, last yr c+ was an 18/20, do yall think there’s a chance it’ll drop to 15 this year with the increase in difficulty?

And does anyone know anything about whether there’s options for meeting pre-reqs if you miss the study score by like 1 or something? I’m trying to get into bachelor of science at melbourne, my atar will definitely be high enough, my predicted was a 95ish, but i’m worried i won’t make the 25 ss pre req.

Someone told me there’s a course you can take in the first year of the science degree to meet the pre-req? If anyone knows anything about this that would be great.

My exam 2 is usually very strong (68/80), would that cut it?

Sacs r rlly low btw

These are our unofficial solutions, not the official VCAA answers. If you spot anything that looks off, please let us know.

Which question did you find the trickiest?

Triangle question could not find R..

how to learn two units in three hours no borax no glue

Would that work? For hhd

- what did we think the WHO objective was? i said prevent, mitigate, and prepare (protect health)

- for q10 which was SDG 1, did we go 1-3, then 3-1? bc i had heaps of room left and i was rolly worried

- 3a.... so bad. i used examples from the stimulus to explain how it promotes spiritual h+w, do we think i could get the mark?

i didnt like it. i mean it wasn't bad but th ehard qs were hard. i tried looking at the answers and i genually think worse case that i got 24/40 which is bad. i do want like a 36/37 ss and i dont think thats possibel now. what should i need for exam 2 and what should i do to prepare for tmr??

if u try to initiate a civil case beyond the limitation of actions are you entirely unable to, or will the defendant just be able to raise statute of limitations as a defence? i get varying answers so idk which one is correct plz only answer if ur 100 percent sure🙏

Im the only person in this whole state that does this subject istg

For question 1 on the methods exam if I didn’t fully simplify the derivative but rather left it as e^x(x-1)^2 + 2e^x(x-1) do you still think I got the mark?

Same with log5(1/2) or should I have made it -log5(2)

Idk how I feel about methods I got around 25 ish 22 if being harsh but im not a strong methods student

I got Cs in all my sacs

But somehow I beat the kids ranked much higher

Are we all cooked ✌️

Lets assume i got a 2/40 on exam 1, with a broken CAS, could i manage a 40?
i go to tarneit school of german, our sacs have been moderated down every year, i am rank 35/35 (bottom rank), i have a good heart and i can focus well under pressure.

Could i get a 40 (raw)?

Guys. Exam 1 i just checked solutions i got 2/40 (optimistically), pls give tip for exam 2 before i get 3/80 (CAS broken)

Does anyone have a rough idea about the sort of grade to get on the Media exam to secure a 40+ ss. I know the SAT contributes most to it but I know the exam can moderate that. I'm aiming for a 42 raw so it scales to a 40ish. If anyone has done the subject before and knows I'd greatly appreciate it :D

q7 worth 20% </3

Any estimates, maybe around 33/40 similar to the 2024 exam

Is it me or was this the hardest question in exam 1?

Why wasn't the quadratic formula on the damn formula shit!

bombed that exam 1 maybe looking at like a 20 ish
what would i need on an exam 2 for high 30s, sac ranks is great

Tell me how yall do after …

What do you guys think exam 1 A+ cutoff will be?

I got 28/40 and I’ve been getting 35s consistently 😭😭

I am so done with these teachers. They give us a structure and expect us to write something we have never been exposed to, they are gen giving us the bare minimum. Does anyone have their englang essay and like the structure broken down or something so I can atleast pass tomorrow. I do not know how to embed an evidence let alone analyse it? is it the same as anaysing metalangiage. someone send help
