I think circle theorems and/or vectors are likely to come up! If you go to firstclassmaths, there's a whole grid of how common the topics are. But definitely DON'T rely on those - if u want last minute prep, there's some free practice papers on the firstclassmaths website too that have the topics from paper 1 excluded. But ofc try and review as much as u can

i hope vectors doesnt come up as one of the hard questions at the back 🙏 i don’t mind a 3-4 marker tho

i’m so cooked for this 😭🙏 i got zero revision in over half term and i have rs tomorrow (eduqas)
