I have completed my own worked solutions to the 2023 HSC Mathematics Standard 1 exam.
Thoughts on this year’s exam (link to the solutions is at the bottom of the post):
Overall, I felt this test covered the Standard 1 content well, but it may have been slightly on the harder side (Standard 2 was difficult this year, as well). Questions 9 and 10 were particularly difficult, and then the extended response would start getting tricky around Question 24 and then especially from Question 26 or 27, but even some of the earlier questions may have been challenging for Standard 1 students.
My personal favourite question was Question 19, even though part (a) may have been a little tricky since it involved substituting and then solving an equation, I just like statistics and regression!
My personal least favourite question was Question 22, even though not a particularly difficult question, it just was a bunch of boring financial calculations and summing them up.
