Title: Salt in the wound
Post by: Studyinghard on November 20, 2010, 01:46:49 pm

Exam 1 2010 - cone of death question was basically a repeat of a question in exam 2 2009.

How many kept all VCAA practice exam 2's for the weekend before the exam and didnt get this question in 2010 exam 1?

If you would have 2009 then this would have been a walk in the park.

Not a repeat actually, although the idea was similar:

Last year it was acid into a cone, rather than a cylinder inscribed within a cone. Exam 1 2010 COD question would still have been tough.

Nice to see the change from 40+ to 45+ in methods thushan...

Still, the general opinion around town is a 50, if not 51  :P
