Pyramid of death wouldnt surprise me considering the things tasmania jones gets up to. however i hope theres going to be a lot less emphasis on just killing the majority with silly questions, and more of a spread from easy to difficult.

I CAN SEE IT NOW:
Tasmania Jones was scouring some Ancient Egyptian PYRAMID OF DEATH for treasure, when he stepped on a booby trap and the pyramid started filling with water at a rate of 5m^3/minute. Tasmania is inside a cylindrical chamber inscribed in the pyramid, with the base of the chamber lying on the same plane as the pyramid floor....

well if its anything to go by...the teachers at my school told us at our last methods class that the tech free will be hard this year, but the tech active will be easy, becuase everyone is doing CAS, with many being unfamiliar with the system...so who knows? could be an easy one :D

I think transition matrices, something to do with trig, probability..perhaps things unique solutions in MCQ

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out --
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me -- and there was no one left to speak for me.

My teacher told me otherwise, cause with the addition of CAS, they can make exam 2 brutal, while new CAS material for paper 1 is supposed to be stated in the "sample", which held no useful information on exam 1 whatsoever-.-

Out of Exam 2 VCAA 2006-2009, which one is considered the hardest?

I wan't those questions.  I haven't screwed one up as of yet :D

At least it gives you something to match the numbers up with haha...

@Souljette: I haven't done 09 yet, but i would say 2007 was the hardest.  Best mark was 78/80.

@ JinXi, you do have a point, but you see there is also a possiblity of making it easy becuase all those who just moved into CAS will be unexperienced, so to make the paper accessible and preserve that bell curve it will probs be easier..
