OMG wow! I've done questions 1-9 so far, apart from question 7 - could you please help me with that? Also, can you please help me with question 10? :tongue:

So for question seven, I considered the differential of sin (2x^3) and compared it to what I was trying to get
Question 10 is an integral given in the formula booklet :smile:

You still get one though.

One 3 hour exam, without any formula books at all. Not cool.

Physics equations are generally easier anyway, yet we get a booklet for that.

Our maths formula booklet is amazing, we get sooooo much from it. We have so many pages in it :lol:

Yep, none of this panzy modular stuff. All the content is assessed in one go.

That plus the fewer resources available is what makes Advanced Highers more difficult than A2s - they command more UCAS points as well.

The CIE booklet is useless. Oh wow, how to derive sin x! How useful in a 3 hour long FM paper!

They didn't even give it us in an AS physics exam and no-one realised until there was like 10 minutes left.

IMO there is absolutely no point in rote learning things in maths - maths is about understanding... Which our formula booklet kind of encourages.

I want to murder the IBO, this is an extremely unfair advantage.
