Post by: cara.mel on October 10, 2008, 12:44:48 pm: why are there 3 xs in exam :P

Clearly exam 2 is easier because you can do the following:
-Consult your best friend TI-89 (or similar if you have different friends)
-Imagine the scenario in your head and simply answer all the 1 mark questions based on picture in head
-do reasonableness checks for your answers ie cars don't usually go at 500m/s

whereas exam 1 is just answering random questions and you have no idea if you are right or not, and you can't check because NO CALCULATOR.

I have trouble with exam 1 because I don't understand the point of them

Post by: shadezofemerald on October 10, 2008, 08:28:10 pm: haha yea i think exam 2's harder than 1 coz i did quite a few practice exams n i get more questions on the 1st than the 2nd exam. The multiple choice not too bad but anything that pops up that i'm not familiar with i'll still have trouble...Hating the short answer questions....
