Walk into your QCAA Specialist Mathematics External Assessment having already worked through it — every step, marked the QCAA way. QCAA Study Specialist Maths gives you 240+ past-paper questions from every Specialist Mathematics External Assessment 2020-2025, each with complete step-by-step worked solutions aligned to the official QCAA marking guide. And with the optional AI tutor (Amy), you can snap a photo of your own handwritten working and have it marked against those same QCAA marking guides — mark by mark, the way an exam confirmer does. PHOTO-MARK YOUR HANDWRITING LIKE A REAL CONFIRMER — OPTIONAL AI (AMY) • Take a photo of your handwritten working and Amy marks it against the official QCAA marking guides — line by line, the way a QCAA exam confirmer marks the real paper • See exactly where each mark is won or lost, with feedback in QCAA rubric language — not just a tick or a final answer • The closest thing to having your practice paper confirmed and handed back — in seconds, any time of day • Marks an entire mock paper in one go • Explains any concept three different ways until one clicks • One-on-one chat the moment you're stuck — no booking, no waiting The app works fully without Amy — she's the tutor and marker on call at 11pm the night before. EVERY PAST-PAPER QUESTION, FULLY WORKED — INCLUDED WITH THE APP • 240+ verbatim QCAA past-paper problems — every External Assessment from 2020 to 2025, Paper 1 (tech-free) + Paper 2 (CAS-active) • Complete step-by-step worked solutions on every one, each step aligned to the official QCAA marking guide — so you learn how marks are actually awarded, not just the final answer • Each problem attributed to its source paper and question, used under CC BY 4.0 THE WHOLE COURSE — ONE-TIME, NO SUBSCRIPTION • Every QCAA QCE Specialist Mathematics dot point (2024 v1.2 senior syllabus): Unit 3 complex numbers, proof by mathematical induction, vectors & matrices; Unit 4 further calculus (integration, differential equations, vector calculus) & statistical inference • Original Paper-1 & Paper-2-style mock problems modelled on real QCAA EA structure and topic spread • 100 syllabus notes, written for Year 12 in plain English • QCAA 2025 Specialist Formula Book bundled in — one tap during any quiz or mock • Exam-quality LaTeX maths display — notation looks like the real paper • CAS-allowed vs tech-free badges on every question • Live, dark-mode-aware diagrams (normal & sampling distributions, area-under-curve, tangent lines) • Spaced-repetition flashcards that resurface what you got wrong • 125+ term glossary with plain-English ELI5 explainers • QCAA cognitive-verb commentary + per-year examiner-report tips • Daily quiz that targets your weak spots, mastery rings, a forgiving streak • iPhone, iPad & Apple Silicon Mac · dark mode · accessibility text scaling PRICING — ONE-TIME, NO SUBSCRIPTION FOR THE APP • The entire app — every feature above — is a one-time purchase, about the price of a coffee, unlocked for good. No subscription. Unlike most exam-prep apps, the core app isn't locked behind a recurring monthly fee. • Optional AI add-on only: Amy Live adds photo-marking, AI marking, chat & explainers; Crunch Time adds a higher monthly AI allowance for the exam run-up. The app works fully without either. Subscriptions auto-renew until cancelled (Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions). YOUR PRIVACY — YOUR PHOTO STAYS YOURS Your working photo is sent encrypted, used only to mark it, then deleted within 30 days. No other student sees it, and we don't browse it. Never sold, never used for ads or to train AI. No tracking, no ads.

Also new: pick up where you left off, a card pointing you at the topic needing the most work, and question counts beside every percentage. Empty practice sets are gone. Thanks to the biggest shark fan we know for spotting this one. Sharks hunt using electroreception — jelly-filled pores on the snout that pick up the faint electric field of a heartbeat, letting them find prey buried in sand. ### 1.0.1 — 2026-08-12 Tick, tock. Every mock in the Exam Simulator now runs on its own clock — pick a 45-minute paper and you get 45 real minutes, no sneaking extra time (sorry). Hand it in and you'll get a time breakdown showing which questions quietly ate your afternoon, so you know exactly what to drill next. Sitting the real thing is the only part we can't make less stressful. ### 1.0 — 2026-06-24 No release notes. ## More apps by Kendal Slack - [Sightwords Superhero](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/sightwords-superhero/id6760823423) - [Typing Ninja](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/typing-ninja/id6761159226) - [HSC Study Biology](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/hsc-study-biology/id6767211242) - [HSC Study Business Studies](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/hsc-study-business-studies/id6767211407) - [HSC Study Chemistry](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/hsc-study-chemistry/id6767211420) - [HSC Study PDHPE](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/hsc-study-pdhpe/id6767211735) All apps by Kendal Slack: https://appshunter.io/developer/1183263943 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
