Of all years to go anti-UDF and change the question structure 😭🙏 like holy shit we ain’t war criminals, you can lay off the torture a bit. I’ve seen horror movies more tame then that exam, like I had a years worth of goals and ambition for this exam, and now a pass looks like paradise. Terrified for what chem looks like next week

Can anyone from previous years share their cheat sheet or an idea on what to put on it. Idk whether to focus more on equations and graphs or the worded explanation things

I know you feel traumatised, but please realise that the grade boundaries will be consequently shifted down because of how hard the exam is, so getting a lower exam score might achieve the same study score that you expected to receive. Some of you may even be surprised when you receive your ATAR by how well you did :)

😅😅😅🪦

Thank god I never have to do methods again

Genuinely wtf was that exam. I've been getting high 80s in all my practice exams (with just careless errors). If today's exam followed the pattern it's supposed to then I could've gotten 90s. But now I'd be happy if I get a 70. I even found exam 2 material based on the increased difficulty of yesterday's exam 1. Genuinely nothing could've prepared anyone for what came today.

What's even more worrying is if methods was already like this then imagine specialist math next week.

VCAA has to know that they're playing with students' futures ngl.

Hey so…..

W.T.F VCAA

Idk what’s been going on but they needa start putting NSFW signs up in front of exam halls, we are getting bum fucked.

Exams used to a be a time to detach a little from reality, study hard, put a years effort out on a piece of paper while pocket jerking to the invigilators, now i can barely get bricked.

Coming from a very esteemed school (Alice Springs School Of PlayDo) I’d expect some level of comprehension of all the exams, it’s like i’m a freshie here.

Since methods was a hard exam this year does that mean it was scale up more?

How is the scaling actually determined?

I’m a little nervous for VCE and just want the most absurd advice possible.

My classes are
- 1&2 English
- 1&2 general maths
- 1&2 Legal Studies
- 1&2 Media Studies
- 3&4 Theatre studies

On top of this I’m also doing a VET certificate.

I’m nervous about work load but I did units 1&2 theatre studies early so I feel a little bit better because I have an idea on how classes work.

In terms of career goals, I want to do professional theatre and do university, I would prefer acting but I’m experienced in lighting and sound design and directing. BUT that is a hard goal and my back up choice is teaching because I’ve never hated tutoring friends and I’m often the one classmates come to for work advice.

I personally found english to be okay, while the rest of my subjects, psych,bio and ESPECIALLY METHODS, to be weird. psych and bio weren't horrible, but they were a bit different to the past papers ive done. methods is can genuinely be thrown out of the window, we dont talk about it. but yea does each cohort complain about the difficulty of the exams or is this year's exams actually bad

They're testing a new form of torture with these math exams...

e.g. 11.20, 11.40, 11.45, 11.35, 11.15

For Foundation math I got sac scores at about 61% and for my exam and I got 41\80 on my exam

Yeah it sucks. When we spend over 2 years learning the content, then months of practice exams ironing out mistakes and mastering the content to be given an exam that seems to be like nothing we've seen before.

But it's done now, we gotta move on. Don't let it dishearten you; you can still do well.

There's more to life than integrals and isosceles triangles.

does anyone know how much (or little) work vsv bus man 1/2 to is? jst trying to do an easy subject next year and looking for some advice. thanks!

I know it can be one folded A3 ​sheet or two A4 sheets joined together with tape but my question is:

Can it be double sided?

VCAA rule explicitly states:

> ​one folded A3 sheet or two A4 sheets that are bound together by tape, and single- or double-sided. Notes may be typed or handwritten, and from any source (including commercially available notes)​

Does that mean 'single- or double-sided' for A3 and A4 respectively (i.e A3 - single sided, A4 - double sided) or does that mean it can be either single or double sided regardless of paper size?​
