Depends on the person, I didn't really notice a step-up. But yeah, you should be happy. :biggrin:


I hope I'll be alright by the time I get to A2 then :smile:

Also, are solomon papers meant to be harder than the actual AS-level exams?

You should practise normal papers first, no?

Yeah I was going to save the "normal " past papers that are all on ExamSolutions until around about 2 weeks before my first exam.

Also, for the non-calculator exam (C1) is it worth learning my cube numbers because I'm always coming across questions where you have to find the cube root of a number.

You should only learn your cube numbers up till about 5^3 or 6^3 maximum.

Thank you Zacken,
I had a feeling I wouldn't need to remember cube numbers all the way up to 10. But wanted to make sure I'm half prepared for those kind of questions!
