Tagging some people who may be interested. Please let me know if you think they're useful/not useful, too hard/too easy. It's hard for me to judge whether they are that useful and whether I should make more. Thanks :smile:

All looks good! I think it would be good to have a question on connected rates of change/forming differential equations since people seem to struggle with these. I'll have a dig.

Wow some of these are quite tricky but I am really enjoying doing these, because its so satisfying when you get the answer after a full page of working out ahah- it's actually beautiful :') Thank you for your time in making these!!

Thank you!

OP

A few more have been added. They're all hard questions but the last one is particularly tough.

Does anyone have a solution to the last question?

It's the only one I can't work out and its getting annoying now....

Thanks in advance

I recommend looking at the original question first because it guides you through the process instead of having to do it from scratch which is tough.

Thanks, great questions btw!
Do you have any modelling questions as well?

I'm just preparing some old OCR MEI modelling type questions that can be used for new spec. I'll let you know once I've compiled them.

Do you plan on making any of these for the applied section (stats and mechanics)?

OP

I have added some old spec OCR MEI A Level statistics/mechanics questions to the OP which I feel are good practice for the new spec. I'll be adding more over the coming days. If anyone finds more old spec questions that they thought were hard or included modelling type questions then please let me know and I'll add them to the list.
