I got a feeling that the boundaries will be very high ...


I don't think Student Room is representative of the nation. Everyone here always rushes to tell everyone else how easy it was for them because they're so clever.

I am 95% sure i got 74/75
And 100% sure that isnt 100UMS.
Dissapointed tbh. And dont noone say 'i wish i got that mark etc etc' i have my own aims and i wanted 75/75.
I am fully correct in thinking that 74/75 in 98UMS?
I dont think it was that easy but easy since all question had been asked before. I still think 70/75 will be A* and that wont change however the A boundary will go up 1/2marks.

I still think at this stage only from the comments and the poll that this is the easiest FP2 to date.
I wii be able to say more once I see the paper
and even better when I do the paper

Integral of 3cos2xsinx

Is it okay to integrate 3/2(sin3x -sinx) instead?

3cos2xsinx = 3sinx(2cos2x -1) = 6sinxcos2x -3sinx ... which integrates to .... -2cos3x +3cosx

I am not planning to do solutions now.
I have a list of currently 95 papers to do solutions for and this will slot somewhere mid-July in my do lists.

However it will be nice to see the paper.

Yep, I have it on me. I can scan it when I get home, but at the moment I can only post the questions?
