Hey guys,
I've just been told by a friend that tomorrow's C2 paper has been leaked, and when trying to find further information on it, I couldn't. I can't seem to access threads made regarding the subject either. Does anyone have any idea what's going on, and if it's just trolling, or might we actually get a reserve paper?


It hasn't been leaked. Maybe if you had read through the last couple of pages of this thread....
Do you guys think we would be expected to know formulas for 3d shapes? E.g. cylinder, cone, sphere, etc?

Guys, do you think it will be a good idea if i stayed up till about 2ish. Then set my alarm for 7ish. There's just so many things i need to cover. Last minute revision sucks :frown:


Not really because the silly mistakes will come out to play if you're tired! They can't test EVERYTHING so I think you should get an early night xx You WILL be fine!
Is there any log equations??

The radius will cut the chord therefore the x coord to A will be 6 units left and the x coordinate to the right will be 6 to the right
then once you got -4 and 8 you sub it in into the equation as any point on the circumference satisfies the equation :smile: hope that helps


Thanks you frozo :smile:

Can we get asked a question with a binomial where the power is an unknown?

Doing Solomon papers and they have several questions where the power is unknown, and you have to expand and prove it etc...


Just come across this question on an IAL, have no idea how to do it and not sure if its part of our spec

Guys you know if d2y/dx2 is > 0 it's a MINIMUM

d2y/dx2 < 0 it's a MAXIMUM

If d2y/dx2 = 0 is it point of inflection? What do you do next 3rd differential or something idk? How can you make sure

Yes you need to know the formulas for Volume and Surface area etc for them

If d2y/dx^2 is 0, if you differentiate it again and does not equal 0, then it's a point of inflexion

and no it wasnt both papers sat last year, one was leaked...
