Anyone else hate electric power now?
That lenzs law question was a killer

[casbanjo]

That was meh.

I finished 20 minutes early, not sure if that's a good thing :/
Just spent a while checking up on things.

DAT Lenz's law ring-magnet question.

[Robert123]

Yeah that the one I'm referring to, it took me 5 minutes of second guessing myself to come up with a dodgy explaination

[Ghost.Lee]

It was hard but i got everything done.
 Lenz's law Qs was great fun

[Evan.T]

I think it was fair....but did anyone else find it harder than all of the other VCAA papers?

It wasn't harder, I don't think. Maybe exam pressure got to you a bit. But yeah that ring question was quite hard.

I thought it was a decent exam, just a bit strenuous. I'm concerned with the timing as a lot of people in my class didn't manage to complete it (myself included). There was a fair bit of content in just 2.5 hours :\ Anyone in the same boat??

i finished way early. maybe I missed a section??
OH MY GOD WHAT IF I MISSED A SECTION

[jono88]

I think i legit failed that exam  :/

i got everything good except for that find the error of the students calculation question. I couldn't even attempt that.
but everything else was really basic.

As long as you did everything plus your detailed study, don't fret!!  I'm not sure about your cohort strength, but mine is just average-above average which may explain why and a lot of them were doing their cheat sheets 10 minutes before going in

Strain energy was wrong, the spring was only 2 m long and the highest point was like 2.5m or something.

can't believe i misread some of the 6 resistors...what study score will i get if i lose 2 marks and get 148/150 in that exam?
