Okay, I guess we'll see.


Youll be fine as long as you registered successfully. I did the same thing last year and emailed them, they said its all fine if it was successful.

What are u guys doing for the next few days until after tuesdays exam? I would try and do mainly past papers but there seems like very few of them for fp3 and phys so ive been filling the gaps with random maths stuff which isnt relevant. Anything else I could be doing?

Oh wow, we're in very different positions. I have about 15 past papers to do between today and Tuesday because I've done absolutely nothing. :rofl:

Lol, I have so many past papers to do. Are you not on OCR for Physics?

Yeah, same. I've done only 1,2 past papers for FP3 but it is pretty chill. Gotta do more Physics past papers though, aiming for that A* like physicsmaths.

nah im on AQA (those scrubs)

Oh, that's why you don't have that many past papers then. Or have you done most of them already? I am on OCR (old spec that is being scrapped this year) so I've got all the past papers from 2009 to 2015 to be doing for the next days. :biggrin:

ah maybe. I think the papers cover the same years but I did most of them last year when I was fed up with ASs, before i know i knew like no maths :biggrin:
Now that's STEPs over does this thread become math memes now?

Meant to say full time maths memes :smile:

math = dank memes
Original post by Insight314
math = dank memes


The difficulty of the maths is directly proportional to the square of the dankness of the meme

But on the note of physics actually, if I want to find the relativistic kinetic energy of of a particle of rest mass m0, whats wrong with calculating E=1/2m(1−v2c2)−1/2v2 E= 1/2 m (1- \dfrac{v^{2}}{c^{2}})^{-1/2} v^{2} ?

I don't think they would ask you about 'relativistic' kinetic energy m8.

Or are you taking the special relativity option choice on the AQA Physics syllabus? You need that then.

No, on to Tripos Preparation probably


Don't you have exams next week?

I think we're making a summer maths thread, but I've got 1 last exam so I'm in maths purgatory atm
