Harder or easier than previous years?

[nubs]

I thought the questions were much more straight forward, but with more room for stupid little mistakes
what did you guys think?

I thought the exam was quite easy and straightforward... but did so many stupid mistakes that it is so frustrating!!

Yeah conceptually it was easier but they had all those 'tricks' - like asking for the co-ordinates instead of the solutions - that will cause people to make silly mistakes.

[nubs]

Yeah dude, they put the coordinates in bold AND I highlighted the word, but i still managed to forget to give the coordinates, and only gave the solutions

Yeah you could tell that was deliberate to see who read the question - because listing the coordinates required absolutely no mathematical knowledge whatsoever.

I'd also like to point out that no matter what the exam was like, people are going to complain about it. Methods = too hard, spesh = too easy... seems like VCAA will never get it right.

Lol, yeah, i reckon this spesh exam was easier than all the previous years, and i found it soo much easier than methods this year. Also, VCAA is accused for 'plagiarism' for the language component of the English exam haha

for that force question, i did everything right except for the stupid mistake that i made at the end: 10*2=40 (kg)
f*** my life

Oh Dang. What question did we have to give coordinates?
What was the value of a, m1 and m2?

I got m1=1.58 and m2=1.88

[manzal]

ttn, I also got those values!!!
