Title: Hardest Trial Spesh Exam
Post by: kyzoo on September 30, 2010, 12:41:29 am
What's the hardest trial exam set that you guys have found so far?

So far for me TSSM 2009 >.<
I could not finish either exam 1 or 2 on time

Exam 1 - 26/40
Exam 2 - 64/80 under 2 hour time limit, or 73/80 using 2:26 hours

TSSM is definitely among the hardest - which is strange, because for methods it was relatively easy. And wtf happened to CSE and NEAP - they've become the new Heffernan!!!

I haven't found the TSSM Methods exams that hard, whereas Kilbaha are much harder. What were your favourites Martoman (for methods and spec)?

Methods I quite liked NEAP and old kilbaha (though 2010 kilbaha are just as good).

Haven't done any exams this year sans neap 2010 for chem and TSSM 09 (exam 1) for spesh sorryy  :-[

one of the TSSM exam 2 questions on dynamics/statics is wrong. it is two triangular ramps and you have to prove the acceleration if i can recall.
it is on a recent TSSM paper. they get a few numbers mixed up

good to see I'm not the only one struggling with TSSM spesh exams.

I've done more spesh than all my other subjects combined now, just haven't been satisfied with the marks

TSFX by far
especially TSFX 2007 - the applications tasks are INSANE.
Ironically, after doing TSFX, VCAA seems like a piece of cake, and I can boost my marks. . . . :)

Heffernan isn't hard but 2 of the questions in 2006 exam 2 are very dodgy =.=

I found TSSM exam 1 pretty manageable and easy; 37/40 under exam conditions. :)

We should be doing exam 2 tomorrow. :P
