How's everyone feeling for this exam?

How did it go mate? Personally found it ok- not as bad as usual. How did you do the last part of the Argand diagram question? I got somat like z= 0+(6+sqrt3)i but not sure if it’s right

I actually thought it was harder than last year, more non standard questions. I reckon. If the boundaries are the same as last hear I've got just below 70 percent. Did you sit D1 as well?

Nah didn't sit D1, how was that? Ah, what questions did you find difficult? Think roots of polynomial Q and the last one asking for 3 quadratic factors were discriminatory. Also the proof by induction was a weird multiple sum question.

What's your thought on grade boundaries? I mean it's only people resitting who sat today, so wouldn't they be higher than usual.

D1 was a class paper, there's only 2 or 3 marks I'm unsure about. I found a few difficult last one was weird, and the Argand diagram question part j couldn't do with a couple of parts here n tnere, proof by induction was strange though, think I've done it though? Not included it in my estimate though.

And I reckon because it was harder they'll be about the same as last year because of the resitters.
