if you got 169/12 on your calculator but rounded it from 14.083 up to 14 then they may remove a mark: they asked for the *exact* value

it was alright. certain questions like the exact value of p, the first question with the graphs and the ratio 3 marker threw me off but overall i think it was fine.
