Re: How did you guys go?

this exam was impossible. 0 for 7 1 for 6. I'll be lucky to get 50%

Re: How did you guys go?

The exam was easy besides question 7. I expect 76-78/84. Way harder than last year....too many marks on a single projectile motion question i think.

Re: How did you guys go?

Question 7 was very easy, at least relative to past years, got 9/12 for it...didnt have time to do the second last part of it.
Skipped the Binomial question, the Circle proof, the d0/dt part of Q3, and a few others...again mainly due to time.
Overall I was quite pleased with the test.

Question 7 was hardly projectile motion IMHO. Simple trigonometry, maybe.

Re: How did you guys go?

Lol Questions 7 was so easy. But saying that i fucked up the first bit. After that it was just a bit of algebra.

Re: How did you guys go?

All right, except for question 7.
I think I got a better raw mark in Q7 for 4U than Q7 for 3U. =/

Re: How did you guys go?

overall, i'd say it was pretty hard!

Ok it wasnt really hard, just too much working esp. to write under 2 hrs!!!!
if the exam was at least 2.5 hrs, i probably wouldve finished the ones i wanted.

i definitely fudged up these questions:

3ai. l2x - 1l < or equal to lx - 3l
3cii and ciii with the car and the spectator
4ai. proving the exponential decay
4bi and bii those p & c's should be like 2 marks each!
4cii and ciii what the hell was that PO and MK = ML?!
5b and 5c. could not show simple harmonic motion nor that isoceles triangle
6b and 6c trig question was too long and binomial theorem was the worst of all!
7a and 7b other than that the rest were a relief

so yeah, thats how badly I went. probably be lucky enough if i get 60-65/84 but definitely not over 65, more like 55 perhaps if i could guess....
