Class of 2025 (2025 HSC CHAT) (17 Viewers)

I will never understand why anyone would waste their time on such a pointless subject like English Ext 2. Unlike 3u and 4u maths that are actually applicable for Uni courses, etc, you gain nothing from doing EE2 besides probably a sense of personal accomplishment and a keener eye in English as a whole.

ee2 students could write you pregnant, va students can draw you pregnant and there's nothing you could do about it. Do not underestimate their power. (also 10/10 rage bait)

4 unit math kids could find the probability of u becoming pregnant

There's no such thing as a pointless subject mate, not everything you do in highschool will contribute to what you learn in university
With this logic, any mathematics beyond the basics is useless then. Ur not gonna go to the supermarket and calculate the arithmetic sequence of a block of cheese are you?

yeah I'll def be looking at my roof one day and deciding to use the sine rule to find the angle that the roof of my house makes

Well you know I was looking at my lamp one day (the og 25s might remember this) and you know you the light that comes the light bulb radially produces a sphere? Well the lamp shade cuts it off in circles, so you’re left with a “sector” of a sphere, ie a cone. This cone of light intersects the walls, casting a particular shape on it.

Recall conic sections:

the wall is vertical, and as such makes a vertical cut to the cone of light, casting a HYPERBOLA on the wall

proof by exhaustion on desmos

so everytime you use a torch or lamp or other conic light source you’re casting hyperbolas, parabolas, ellipses and circles

*deep sigh* why oh why did they remove conics from the extension 2 syllabus (also this reminds me of my phase in early year 11 where I would graph pictures on desmos, I have a very good bulbasaur)

It's people like this who cause creative courses to be shut down. How dare a subject give you skills in any other area than science or maths.

YESS omg

yea i heard everyone who did the test in gradeo did the same trial

 

[bigupsanky]

btw @alphxreturns how was ur trial

 

[alphxreturns]

btw @alphxreturns how was ur trial

i think it went well haha so far its just one multi thats wrong (it was one of those select all that apply ) but there wasntany huge questions (max was 6 marks) and i feel like the time they gave was too long. everyone was just sitting there for the last 20 mins lmao

 

[reniiiblaseee]

im fucking panicking why is the hsc in 50 days

 

[melanie_o]

Should I still work hard/try my best for HSC even though I have low ranks? Or is it futile?

nothing is ever futile you got this!! but don't stress too much as well, it's not worth that much stress - just do your best into the HSC with no regrets!!

have you gotten trials back yet?

Yes and I have been crying myself to sleep for the past week fml, I tried my best but my best wasn't enough

I hope you're alright if you're on track to your goal then it's okay if you don't try as much, and honestly same even if you don't feel like you're gonna make it - stress is just a negative feedback loop
There's so many ways to get into what you want! we're all proud of you for trying your best, and sometimes that's really all you can do - and that's okay! it might suck right now but I believe in you to keep going

Also internal marks rarely equal HSC marks, there's a super high chance you surprise yourself!!

I'm praying for a 90 ATAR, just to give my self one win, but tbh how can I be sad if I have a 2 month holiday before uni anyway

Positive feedback loop I think, but I totally agree with all this! <3
