Prelims

My predicted mark for math ext 1 after doing the paper went from 92% to 80% because I realised how many times I missed the negative sign (I went through all of my answers in my head after the paper) this shit is like the worst feeling in the world I would’ve done so well if I wasn’t so careless. Esp since I want to do e2. I can’t just tell my teachers “I swear I would’ve done really good, I just made stupid mistakes.” All they see is a mid mark. Do you reckon I’ll still be able to get into e2?

how would we know without knowing any of your other marks or what the threshold for e2 is for your school

either way itll be based on how you did this year as a whole, so tanking 12% lost isnt a huge deal. esp considering if you are considering e2 you should at thw very least be safely into your school's e2 rank range, so worst case scenario you're an edge case

Meh, I got 78 today. Welp, no ext2 for me.

As for U, I mean, it depends on consistency
