If you are struggling with any of the past paper questions visit this site examsolutions.co.uk and you can watch tutorials on how to do each C1 past paper question. Better than a teacher!

Yup I've done all edexcel ones, so I'm doing the soloman papers atm, gonna do the spec paper 2moro and do the ones I scored low in again.

Has anyone found any questions (or even whole papers) particularly hard?

I'm sitting it for the first time, but in my A2 year - so haven't done any revision as I'm concentrating on C3, C4 and M1 (I want an A*, and I really struggle with M1 - straight after C1!).

So was just wondering if there are any really hard questions I could do just to make sure I'm ready.

i don't understand one thing in the discriminant question...when they say it has no real roots then what do they mean?

The June 11 paper I did that last year and got 80 did that again yesterday and got 86... while in the others I've gotten at least 90+

it means b^2 - 4ac < 0

So the discriminant is less the 0, so from there you go on and solve

Thanks ^^...one more thing, i don't understand how to draw graphs of e.g y= 1/x+4 where you have to draw asymptotes and they also ask you to find the equation of the asymptotes.

Well do you know how to draw the graph 1/x right?

As long as you have done all the past papers and have learnt from the mistakes you have made, then you should be able to get around 70/75 easily, right??

Also, time does not seem to be an issue as I seemed to finish within 45 mins at the most when doing the past papers?

And are Solomon papers that important?

[QwertyG]

I got an A in January by just doing Edexcel papers not solomon paper, but i got a really low A

Good luck everyone!

Btw, there was this question which I struggled with:

Given that find expressions in terms of y for:

(a) (i)
(ii)

It's from a solomon paper
