Anyone know where to find Cambridge IGCSE Additional Mathematics model answers for the past papers. Any site or anything will be helpful. My regards, Archangelavi.

they're the same
multiplying by 1/3 is same as dividing by 3
the notation was maybe unclear on the MS

I am in Y11, taking my exams in 2016 May.
My school offers Ad.Maths to Y11s only (no Y10) So, I've done one semester of Ad.Maths and currently battling with myself ob whether I should drop it.
I am considering to take either a civil engineering/architecture major in college.
I am decent in math, in fact I'm in the upper quartile of my class.
But I feel like Ad.Math is pretty much complicated pointless stuff that I won't need for a daily basis in the future.
Is it worth it to continue for another half a uear, if I'm not enjoying it very much?
I'm starting the course in September (year 10) and I've heard it's something like the first topics or so of A level maths and it's fairly difficult but that's all I know as I haven't started yet. Can't wait though! :-)
Oh yes also, is further pure maths is the same as additional maths? My friend's sister did Pure and apparently it's really strange. She did her maths GCSE a year early but in the end didn't take the Pure maths exam because she didn't want to risk ruining her A* streak
