Well in january it was a new examiner so my teachers say its most likely to be like that, i did get confused by vectors but i went to a revision session so now its more inclined slopes

I can do slopes until the cows come home, it's the more "wordy" questions that get me. I do not like words.

Anyone got any idea on which the hardest paper is? I want to do a particularly hard paper before the exam tomorrow just to see how i get on. The hardest thing for me is the questions which involve i and j vectors :/ Good luck everyone though!

january 12 was the hardest IMO. i got 53/75 which was my lowest score.

Aaah, M1. I hate M1. I hate mechanics. I'm just going to try and bluff my way through tomorrow

I hate mechanics so much, I'm just going to hope for the best tomorrow. At least the C2 exam a couple of weeks ago seemed to go ok, that should bring my mark up a little :/

Already looking forward to next year's retake :biggrin:

That's confidence for ya :wink:

I just hate the questions which aren't entirely mathsy (yeah yeah tell me how they're all pure maths why don't you), like the connected particles and inclined planes. Projectiles are fine though, as is the rest of the exam. *crosses fingers*

The first sections was very easy, the section B though was very challenging and difficult :/

Overall it was good. The bearing angle should be 3 digits there it should be 021. I forgot the 0 -_-
