Maths Extension 1 Predictions/Thoughts (1 Viewer)

Urm, I mean I think it goes the for other tests/subjects if you do go to selective (Common understanding from my experience is that trials are harder than hsc), personally I do agree and don't to an extent. Although I don't go to a private/selective school myself, doing other papers from James, NSB and etc are definitely harder and includes weird conceptual questions (which I suck at) that 99.95% chance that the HSC won't include. But with that being said, there are definitely easier trials even if they do come from selective schools.
But overall I would say that trials or test (from your selective school) are most likely harder (again this depends alot)

would the actual mx1 hsc be easier than my school exams if i go to a top 15, selective school

Generally it should be easier. Question 11 & 12 and some of 13 are sometimes just Christmas presents honestly [like you would have most definitely seen most of them before or variations] they aren’t meant to be hard pretty much cause it’s a test for the whole state.

14 is usually hard because the questions are just unique but like compared to other unique questions made by top schools it is easier. The distinction being a really top school could have a question where after you look at the answer you’re still confused, the hsc is basically just like you didn’t think that way when you saw the question but the solution is easy to understand. Like I wouldn’t say this years paper or any have been very “hard” per se. People might complain about 22’s stats [but doesn’t help when you don’t study for it] so realistically it’s not that bad esp for top schools like you guys.

Sorta makes all of X1 js a game of silly mistakes atp.
