wow rohitpi...
how is 84/90 considered "pretty bad to ok"...
honestly man, how is an A+ considered bad...

Some people desire high A+'s.

However, not to scare people, but does anyone else feel that this years exam will be far more difficult than previous years? It seems likely because 2009 and 2010 both had relatively high A+ ranges. (i.e. 95.6% and 90% respectively) It is somewhat shown on the front cover, which has 23 motion questions!

Best of luck guys!

I think he was referring to 2009 when he said 95.6%...considering that like over 100 people got full marks on it.

Yeah - I was referring to 2009 as 95.6%. Sorry for any confusion - I edited my post to make it more clear.

what exams do you think relate closest to what will be on the vcaa one. for example tssm, itute, tsfx, or stav?
Pleasure and pain. They’re not opposites. They’re neighbors … separated by a thin line, by a split second.
One minute you’re feeling like everything is going your way … like you’re ready to climb the highest mountain … headed for the top of the world.
But in the game of life you never know.
You train for years to get a piece of personal glory or a chance to stand toe to toe with your peers and say, “Here I am. Take your best shot.” Then the contest begins and BANG! — you’re down for the count.
It’s not your day. You tried your best. But was it really your best?
So do you go home with a broken

Well, this guy in my class finished it in 46mins and got 90/90, so that's a bit depressing...

I just hope I can scrape a 35+ :(

The ones I'm doing at the moment are NEAP and TSSM, I think they have the best motion qs

I know what you mean I got a kid at my school who's 15 and in year 12 and he finishes trial exams in under 50 mins or so getting like 85+/90. He doesn't even bother to check if he's right anymore, he just assumes he is.
Just makes me depressed when I can't compete against a 15 yr old. :(
