Does anyone know any websites where they have loads of hard questions for maths? I have done terrible in the first paper and I need to at least get 70+ marks in the second paper to make up for it if I want to get an A

the Physics and Maths tutor website has Madas and Neikermaths practice papers that vary in difficulty, they're quite good but probably best to pick and choose questions that are topics coming up in paper 2 from the AI rather than completing full papers.

Anyone have any predictions for what the proof is going to be?!

No idea, however I found this video, a predicted 2022 paper, which covers everything on the advanced info, and question 13 is a proof question. Highly recommend you check it out, link below.

simply hoping that paper 2 will be easier-but it's always paper 2 that it is harder

Right I need 80+ on this paper if I wanna get that A* 😭 Is it just me or, judging by the advanced info, this paper looks easier??
what does "Geometric sequences and series; trigonometric identities" on the advanced info mean? like is it saying that we'd have to do geometric on trig identities

Maybe give us a sequence like sin, cos, 0.5 and then make us show that it be expressed in a certain form and then solve it for the common ratio/theta
hi guys what does it mean by : Understand and use function notation
