    How's your revision going
    I think many of the topics are ok apart from factorizing, rationalizing the denominator and the perpendicular graph topics.

    Unit 2 papers are easier than Unit 1 in my opinion. All you need to focus on are the A03 Questions which are QWC, which are at the end of the paper. Learn all the angle rules well as it is guaranteed in the exam. Good Luck

    Yeah same I'm just worried about some of the circle theorems that might come up and the volume question which is worth about 4 or 5 marks.....

    What did you get in unit 1
    A- 102 UMS
    I was really worried I'd get a B
    Maths was never my best subject.
    What about you?

    You know for practice paper B question 11 where you have to completely factorise.

    Do you not collect like terms because on the mark scheme it gives a different answer

    Some practise paper's mark schemes are a bit dodgy, so you may be right, I have noticed that myself!
