Yeah haha, so many hard questions.

Anyone remember their coordinates of the point P? Question where you had to find dy/dx then the vertical line toucing the curve.

i got (k^2)/9 of the y-coordinate. Iforgot the x and dunno if it is correct or not

Yah ok I think i got that as well, you just set the deminomator of dy/dx to 0 then solved right?

no i couldnt fully do that question, how did you do it?
i found the cartesian form of C2 first and wrote the line calculated from (a) in y=mx+c form, then i substituted it into C2 go for b^2-4ac not equal 0. dunno if i made any mistakes or misunderstood the questions or if this method is alright or not.
how many marks do you guys think needed for an A*

Yeah idk, for the vector question where you had to find posititon vector of Q, did you get 3 different fractions, where mule was like 30/19?

yeh i got three of them like XX/19.

Idk paper was pretty hard so probably lower than normal.
For the binomial question were your values 1 for b and -1/9 for a?

yeh i got the same
Guys i found this paper very hard. Whats do you think grade boundaries will be fo 90?
For the intersection points of the 2 modulus graphs were they x = a/2 and x = 3a/4?
Wasnt it harder than usual?

yeah way harder

i think one of them should be negative? because one of the intersection points should be on the left side of y-axis?
