It was okay… I think I got the last question correct! 5 root 2 I think? But I couldn’t do the second last one cylinder…

That's great it went ok, hopefully you did get the last question right!

the cylinder question completely threw me, but i think i got most marks on it since i got √2200. apart from that, i think it went well :biggrin: i have done past paper questions far harder than all the questions on it

what did you guys get for the last two questions?? i think i got those wrong also the density one

okay, the paper was actually pretty good! the last two questions threw me a little, especially the second to last one. i assumed it was 3d pythagoras? but i couldn't do it. hopefully we have the same luck for the next paper, and the two maths ones!

the second to last one i wrote if root 2500 = 50 then root 2200 has to be below 50

so annoyed though i cant remember if i accidently wrote 2 root 5 instead of 5 root 2 for the last one at worst i only lose 1/2 marks for it i think.

I plotted the mic in the top right side on the 1st question and I think I got 164% on the OCW for Higher. Are those right?

not sure about the loci one (can't remember) but the ocw question was definitely 164%
