i read the long response first bc it helps me organise it into themes if that makes sense. like what i need to remember. then i read mc. if i have time, i choose the hardest mc or hardest sa that i think will stump me and attempt those in my head. also helps wth integration to just think abt what formulas i will need. wbu

for trial I just did Multiple choice in my head, but now might spend just 5min of MC, 5min reading the last 2 or 3 questions. if i'm gonna lose marks it's gonna be on those questions, so it's worth the time trying the possibility of finding the click which takes you to the solution just eyeballing it. if it's something like 2021 Q34 that can be done just in your head.

isn't that when an AP and Gp is combined like in the question the AP series is 1+2+3+4... and GP is 1/6 + 1/6 ^2 ....
I've only seen these questions in like harder school trial papers otherwise they aren't that common

guys can u list all the hard topics bc i wanna checklist all the stuff ive covered
defo financial math is one of the hardest like the loan payment interest earned stuff, then you have the applied trig questions like the ferris wheel thing, and finally you have the min max questions (check last question of 2024). those are the big 3

btw dont rely on predictions completely guys there's a chance adv can be different from the predicted stuff like english so stay prepared for every case
