Hi all,
This took a while, but I've finished writing the trial exam that I promised a few weeks back! Share it with friends if you think it is helpful.
The exam covers the new study design, and should be quite a bit harder than the real VCAA exam (
in retrospect I think some of the multiple-choice questions are quite fiendish ). Please try it under exam conditions if you can - 15 minutes reading, 150 minutes writing, no notes.
I have also attached full suggested solutions to the exam. Discussion of the questions here is still very much encouraged!
As always I will be happy to help with clarifying anything in the exam/answering individual questions. I will update the pdf ASAP if there are errors in the current version.
Good luck!
v2: Fixed some errors, improved the marking scheme slightly
v3: Found and fixed problems in 3 multi-choice questions! I also now have full suggested solutions to go with this copy of the exam!
v4: Minor corrections as pointed out by gypsyakhyar and VanillaRice
v5: Fixing some numerical answers in the suggested solutions, as pointed out by my students IRL
v6: Fixed Section A Q16 and Section B Q8 b. as pointed out by manishmao
Please make sure you have the latest copy of both the exam and suggested solutions!
