like the ext2 paper, this years paper was more style than substance. IN both papers the questions were of an unexpected style, and emphasised on different topics. But in terms of difficuilty, both werent out of the normal range of difficuilty.

it wasnt that hard, not as hard as that bloody 4 unit paper... but yes time was such a big issue, didnt do question 7 because of it... fucking people whos lights went out, 15 more mins and it would have been done... hell unfair i reckon.mathslover said:i do 4u and i lost so many marks!! edit: in the 3u ppr
mainly cz i ran out of time!!!
anyone else?
dude there was no question 8 on my paper.ckprior said:yeah i do four unit and i still found a lot of things difficult... especially question 8
I think this ^ is an indication of what most 4u people found based on ppl at my school and friends. I think for most of it was pretty simple and its really a matter of not making silly mistakes.conics2008 said:Time issue not hard
What uve used is actually the reverse chain rule. I think in 3u u should be finepoWerdrY said:would i have lost marks for not showing adequate working? i just did it in my head and went straight to (sin^3)/3
I got 105 in the 2007 paper 109 in 06 and 101 in 05...but ill only get around 80 in this yrs one...just due to getting stuck on q's wasting time and silly mistakesBradlovesJesus said:Extension 2 wasn't that difficult per se. It was just weird. I got 100+/120 in the 07' paper, but could only get high 70s - low 80s/120 in our exam. Looking back over it, if I had 4 hours, I could've done FAR better. But I guess I didn't think about them enough.
As if its harder than the 4u paper LOL.......if u got the growth and decay q in 4u (covers all u need + more for turkey q) the resisted motion in q7(3u projectile q7) all the integration in q1 and the conics LOL what more knowledge did 3u require ????frostysnow said:Yep i think i stuffed it. I think it's harder than the 4U paper. But then i again, i only started studying for this yesterday and only did 3past papers compared to the 15 i did for 4U
