Aim high

Aiming for higher, of course, but I wouldn't complain if I got those grades

Lol, 100/100, how are you going to complain about that?

Aim high

pfft, 100 on FP2/FP3 is where it's at

I meant 1,1 in STEP II, III

I would not say that, because I haven't managed it.

Ah I'm hoping for SSS but I can't see it happening
So yeah, I wouldn't complain about 111 or some variation thereof.

I've never fully figured out - are you an AS or an A2 student? If it's the latter, are you a Cambridge offer holder, and if so, what college?

It's the former I'm hoping to apply to Cambridge, I thought applying to Trinity might be a bit arrogant, but another one I liked - Christ's is taken by my sister, now I'm looking at Clare or Downing

Apply to Trinity, if you like it - Pembroke is the best though. Arrogance is a silly excuse to not apply to a college if that's the one you prefer. SSS is an interesting hope for a year 12 though - back then I just hoped I'd be able to semi-consistently answer questions. :lol

Thought I'd let you know, I was extra careful when calculating $Var(X)$ today

Volume of solid generated by curve y=f(x) when it is rotated 360 degrees about the x-axis

$= \displaystyle \pi \int y^2 \mathrm{ \ } dx$

The volume of a revolution is:
$\pi \displaystyle\int y^2 \ dx$
Where $y=f(x)$
Rearrange the equation into the above format, and it should be easy enough

DO you not just leave it in terms of a seeing as its just a constant, I got pie(306.38a^3) ??

Midnight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Midnight?

Lol, I'm banking on some improvement.
I'm only taking STEP I this year. . .
The real test will come next year

Ah, you applied to Pembroke? It seems like lots of people on TSR like Pembroke.

I've narrowed my choices down to Pembroke, King's and Emmanuel... I'll probably choose after exams are over.

Seriously, ran out of time? I find that hard to believe, although other people have told me the same. You don't know that just yet though.
