Mathematics: Post your doubts here!

variant 32 was very hard man , i found it harder than winter 2011 (33 paper), the GT for that one was 51.
Nothing was straight forward in the exam. differential equation, integration, volume and vectors were pretty confusing.
and it was more lengthy than most of the past papers...
so i think the gt is going be less than 55. I hope it is so A* can be around 65

which paper has had the lowest gt so far? lets check that paper and compare the level of difficulty?

 

[sameer.alam]

it was June 08 with 49 Gt for an A. It had two hard questions, u can check june 08 and tell me if you find it hard

june o8 is so not as hard as our paper... the only thing annoying about jun 08 was the second part in complex numbers and the pn/tns second part.. everything else was straightforward and solve-able... our paper... how the hell do you even integrate lnx squared or solve the differential equation they came up with?

on average, whats the minimum percentage required for an A in maths (all 4 components-p1,p3,s1,m1)?

 

[sameer.alam]

yeah so hopefully our gt is low. i got the differential equation right.. it was a tricky question.
and for for(lnx)^2 we had to put it in integration by parts with x .... but i got that wrong

 

[zain123]

can anyone of you ask your teacher or someone, about how high would the threshold be?

I messed up pretty bad in the volume one, the vectors i managed. But i dont know if my answers correct......but the saddest thing was, i messed up the difrentiation of the trignometry function to find stationary points :'( i just cudnt figure it out. Came home and realized what i had to do.......i hope i get an A....

Were the two values of lambda in the last part were 1 and 3?

Can we discuss the paper?

Haha, great to hear that. I'm expecting 50/50 in M1, not so confident about P3 though. Just a little confused about the 2 points in the last question,
didn't get time to cross check my answers with the equations given. Hoping for 72-74/75
