For 7d bascially it was worded weirdly but you had to find the inverse and multiply by the coordinates to get p and q. Answers were -3 and -9 I think cant remember.

Lol youre the only one who thinks its reasonable i think ot was twice as hard as last years.
The proof was also reasonable once you spotted the difference of two squares. -

I think that exam was a bit tougher than usual, built up from the easy questions at the start to some potentially more difficult and wordy ones at the end. Might have lost 2 marks on wordy stuff.
Another tricky one was the last part of question 9. Did anybody get 5 root 2 as their x coordinate of M? Apart from that, it was a pretty standard paper. -

How did you do 7(d)? Find the value of k for which T maps points on y=kx onto itself? -

Was decent tbh just realised at the last minute that 9b was difference of 2 squares and couldn't finish writing in time

Yes, you might get 75/75, but if you go into your Cambridge interview speaking with such appalling grammar, they'll probably refer you to Keale. -

For the z^2+2z question did we have to say that the imaginary part was equal to zero? Took me forever, overthinking a ****ing 1 marker... :/
Series proof wasn't too good, kinda bsed it (started working backward lol).
The last part of the last question stumped me, and a few other weird ones; like that geometrical one on Q7 with the argand diagram. -
