DONE IT! I've finally finished learning C3 (chapters 1 to 8 between Monday and now). Oh wow, that was long. Anyway, time for past papers.

How many papers have ppl done? Anyone trying out the Solomons etc.?

Done the Solomons, not all but quite a few! To be honest - they're not that great. There are plenty kf past papers, so not much need to do Solomon :s-smilie:

plus they're pretty similar to each other imo

That's true. I don't normally do Solomons but I've got, what, another 5 days till this exam - I've got no others and it'll be my very last one - so I'm probably going to get through as many as possible.

I found a zip file on another C3 thread with all the solomons, the elmwoods, old P3 papers that have relevant questions, a list of possible questions that haven't come up yet and all the C3 past papers! I'm going to try to get through those tomorrow and onwards...done enough for today I think, haha, just finished the practice paper in the book.

I was really freaking out about this exam on Monday, but now I'm honestly finding it pretty damn easy! My only fear's the ridiculous grade boundaries...grrrrr

How do you work out the range?
Find the range of f(x)
f(x)= (2x^2+20)/(x^2+5)
No idea how to work it out?
Answer is 2<y<4

Not a clue, but id assume - completing the square/factors something along those lines.

Then again I'd just draw it on the calculator and find the range :colondollar:
