    Me either! I was ready a few weeks ago but lately I've been focusing on other subjects so now I've forgotten a lot.

    That's what I thought but how do you get -sin theta
    its because if you add 180 degrees to the angle it is the same but negative its easy to see if you draw out a sin graph

    I'm retaking and apart from the series and sequences C3 and C4 builds on everything else in C2, so it's not too bad.

    Sequences and series are one of my weak points!
    I'm not very logical
    Ohwell hopefully I will do okay tomorrow!

    Re: OCR MEI C2 MAY 18th
    Im feeling alright. Iv had 7 As in the last few months. Although the last 2 tests i did i got Bs. One of them i was 1 of an A, and the other one 4 of an A. Although im buying the silver faced Casio calculator today so it should boost my marks.
    If they ask the right questions i think il be able to get an A.

    Re: OCR MEI C2 MAY 18th
    Can anyone help me with question 12iv on the June 09 paper?
    I am totally stumped


    Just looked up the boundaries for this paper. 51 for an A, that's really low omg it is a hard paper though imo!

    If I count up my marks without answering the last two parts which I don't understand I still get 59! Pretty good

    Yes, but you've left it a bit late.
    Practice the questions you're not very strong on and learn how to solve those and ones similar to it and that should improve your marks
