i think there is absolutly on doubt. it must be 2000. its insane, q5 involves a non-uniform circular motion question. for q7 ang q8, i can only get like 4 marks..

wtf? 2006 was one of the easiest papers...
2003 last question was absolutely horrible. The working for it is extremely messy and long which makes it susceptible to errors very easily if attempted. It involved proving pi was irrational.

yea, i could only work out part i without looking at the solution. it takes really long and the algebra is so hefty.

i think 2005 q8 b, the hyperbola question is really tough as well..

2006 was a very very easy paper

question 8 wasn't long and it was very very do-able

hope this years paper is like that :)

2000 was a killer

2003 wasnt too bad besides question 8

All the papers 95+ from 1997 to 2004 mostly between 95-98 really crammed in. 2006 i fot 104 havent done 2005 2007 thats for tomorrow. And then there is 2000. In 2000 i 70. So easily 2000 for me was the hardest paper.

do 1993. The average was 46/120. Hardest ever, and the average for 2000 was 57.

The hardest paper to date is the 2008 paper, it's way harder than 2000 and 1993 :p

Who said 2007? I don't understand how anyone can think that 2007 was the hardest from the last 8 years' papers! I got like 10 higher than my average on that paper =]
I'm hoping for a paper of moderate difficulty tomorrow. Then I'll be happy =]

I really liked that question; it was very logical.
