Re: Higher Maths 2012
The invigilators were just giving us sympathetic looks all throughout as people were restlessly moving and sighing, and crying.
i think paper one was not too bad, but what the hell was paper 2?
Have the SQA just decided "to hell with it, they've done all the past papers, but we'll give them something that looks like nothing they'll have seen before!" ARGGGH!!!

Yeah, I'm going to revise heaps this week, so I can at least get an A in physics if not maths! I need an ABBB to include Maths and Physics, just hope I've at least got a B in Maths.(Original post by Blue7195)
yeah same, now i need to get an A on physics
needed A maths for chem engineering, but that's not happening, so noww civil engineering, which needs AB/BA in maths/physics

Re: Higher Maths 2012I got root 10/4 as well(Original post by AspiringVet)
I got root 10/4, as did a couple of my friends. But then some other people got 5.

I didn't find it as difficult as some here are suggesting, but it was definately harder than I expected. -
Yeah! The invigilators kept looking around sympathetically as nearly everyone was still there when there was five minutes, and there was a few people crying also. Aaargh, so annoyed at the SQA!(Original post by lapples)

Re: Higher Maths 2012I got root10 over 2(Original post by StudyAk)
what did everyone get on the last question part (c) in paper 1 where you had to find the shortest distance between PQ and L2, i got 13 units
Also i had like 4 A's in a row in multiple choice questions

Re: Higher Maths 2012Thank goodness. Looks like I got vaguely the right answer(Original post by CSR)
I got root 10/4 as well

Re: Higher Maths 2012i got 1. Then wrote a statement about how the distance would be constant as they were parallel. Probably really obvious, but it means I look like I know what i'm talking about(Original post by StudyAk)
