    Well, just look back through the papers. The same stuff comes up year after year. Just concentrate on the questions you normally do (Eg. 1,2,3,4,5,10) and have a qucik look over the others just incase you're stuck. Learn the theorems in Q8, at least then you can fall back on them and get 20 marks.

    between now and friday afternoon, do 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003 and you'll be sorted. THats my plan anyway, but i'm starting ffrom 1997, and skipping 98 and 99 :p

    I'm going to start on 1993 in about an hour, then tomorrow will be 2004 (mock), 2003 and 1984. Thursday will be 2002,2001 and just running through papers, not doing them but just looking at what came up, thinking about them for a minute or two. Read over the book for a few hours, concentrate on Q8 theorems and any kind of formulas I wouldn't be very familiar with (perpindicular landing angle, all that kind of thing). If you don't have solutions to the papers, then don't bother doing them tbh.

    Where did you get pre-89 papers? I'd love to get my hands on some, it's a pain going through the papers for questions I haven't done already.

    Well I've got a pretty decent teacher - he's given us all the papers and solutions back to 1979. We've done them all in class, and I've got the papers lying around the place, but I realy don't have the time to go scanning them in right now, sorry.

    Well, I'd say Question 1 will be on Linear Motion, Question 2 on Relative Velocity, Question 3 on Projectiles, Question 4 on Newton's Laws...

    :P
