Yeah there was a lot of 'explain' crap and potential to lose marks there, but otherwise it wasn't ridiculously hard...

i think EASIEST physics exam ever.
if you had a good understanding on the work it was sooooo easy.
the worded questions may have caught some ppl, but if you knew them it was very simple
I AM THE GAMBLOR.
NEVER QUESTION THAT.

If you have a good understanding any exam should be easy. Highly doubt easier than last years.

It was hard in the sense that there were a lot of explain questions, which always throw people off, and it was quite long imo. I know people who struggled to finish in time, which I never thought would be possible based on the 09 exam.

Was expected something super-hard keeping in line with VCAA 2010.
This one was a real dud. Wouldn't be surprised if 30+ get 100%

I'm not convinced, if anything I'd say I perform better under exam conditions because I have adrenaline pumping through. I did 09 while listening to Hamish and Andy and still finished in ~30 mins.

So far only one person thinks it was hard - that must mean it was really easy.

Take into account though that this is VCENotes, and you ill find that the state no doubt found it at least a category higher on the hard scale than we do.

And I finished all but the X-Ray question in 55 minutes.
