Paper 1 wasn't the best but I was so thankful the complex numbers question in it was basic and so there wasn't a big one in paper 2. Over all I feel like they were quite kind this year. The complex number question was only a few marks and the further differentiation problem solving one at the end was super similar to all the past papers.

The point of inflection and stationary points questions in my opinion were the hardest so I'm honestly super happy by that exam!

Do you guys reckon the grade boundaries will be lower for maths this year? If so, what do you predict it will be. I have to say, I'm feeling somewhat confident after that, but I also feel it was an unlucky paper this year, given the removed stuff was re-added back into the course.
