Some of these have appeared already but will probably appear again, from the top of my head:
Proof, graph things (translations, stationary points, asymptotes, etc), vectors, e and log stuff, probably more parametric things

my feeling on pure topics:
- parametric equations
- differential equations (maybe some harder integrations)
- implicit differentiation (maybe with quotient rule?)
- graphical transformation
- harmonic form for trig(?)
- rate of change/some sort of chain rule

Does anyone have access to the 2022 mechanics paper and mark scheme?

yes I did less well on the stats side but mechanics is normally quite simple compared to everything else once you get used to the questions

Yep, since chem has been going badly, I really need this A in maths for my offer 😭. The pure test was pretty good, stats was mixed and I'm hoping mechanics can bring it all together...
