I found the paper extremely tough, especially the last question !!!
What do u think the GT will be?
Hopefully in the 50s for an A????

Hey. I wouldn't say extremely tough, but it was quite hard. I don't think it'll go as low as 50 for an A, I think it might be around 55-56ish. Which questions other than the vector one did you find hard? Were you able to attempt all questions? Let's hope for a low threshold.

got full marks on the last quest mostly. Very long paper though.

I did the one about finding the angle from cosec etc half way and left it thinking ill come back for it. No time though. Still should get some marks for effort.

Yh...I meant...50s...so hopefully 55 .. :|
Also....the differential equation question was kinda weird:..

Can we discuss the paper now? ....if not, how long must I wait? |:

I found the cosec question quite hard, but apparently I made a really silly mistake, which probably resulted in me making the question much harder than it actually was.. I also got angry at myself because I couldn't do the first question, I think I was just too nervous.. :S I wish the exam was 2hrs instead of 1hr45..oh well

I personally don't mind discussing the paper, but I'm guessing its against the forum rules. You can always PM me if you want..

Yea, I over complicated it aswell. Got so messed up by the end. Anyway, I was close to making it all in one term before I moved to the next quest. So hopefully he should give some marks for effort.

By the way, we can discuss it as long as we word the replys properly. Dont mention the questions per say till tomorrow though.

the paper was shit ! The last question of vector iii and the volume one, I lost roughly abt 15-20pts.
Another reason is that I just can't deal with the nervous. took long time for me to solve easy questions.
I dunno why, when I did the past paper exam, I normally did it with like 45-1hr to finish the papers. but today I didn't have enough time and made some silly mistakes. ( I did believeI could get abt 65-70 )
Really really disappointed,frustrated. Let me very down.

Life goes on, never mind. I lost 20 marks in AS Math 1 because I forgot to turn the page, Lol. Finished 30 mins early and never saw the last page, didnt think there was one. The tragic part is that I finished this paper and didnt finish the AS one.

The paper was tough, I didn't do the volume question, the one for differentiation of Sinx*Cos^3 x and the Q10)iii)!!

Same here ...those were indeed tough.
I was so pissed off with the volume question. I forgot that it was volume and did the entire thing for area. Had to scratch out the entire thing and start with y^2 from the start.

Well there were 2 possible points. I got one of them, didnt have time for the second one though I knew how to get it. Cant tell you the answer here as its not allowed yet.

I didn't even bother reading the last vector question.. vectors just don't make sense to me.... and the differential equation, the trig identity, the volume of revolution and something else all sucked... but anyway, if we go into a chat we can discuss the paper. I wanna know all the answers you guys can remember!
