Sorry to make yet another thread on OL Maths paper 1 but I thought it would be interesting to see who found it Easy/OK/Tricky/Awful

I for one found it awful

Awful, didn't do any part c's. Part b's were mostly wrong. Some part a's were ok. My friend told me that the c's were actually Honours level and that they'd be marked easier. Still, I definitley failed paper 1!

Managable :)

I am borderline between a B1/A2. I found that the maths this year was a lot more practical inclined. But generally not much harder than last year.

Ok..ish :/

I'm generally at the better end of the scale with pass maths. I found it manageable. Alot of the part (c)s were very difficult alright. Much harder than other years. But I'd still say I did alright in it. Definitely passed anyway.

Ok..ish :/

I said managable.
I got probably between 60-75%

But I was kinda expecting an A or B1, so I was dissapointed. It's easily the hardest paper in recnt years.
Paper 2 should be easier..

Ok..ish :/

I'm hoping for an A1 but I said manageable.. It was a challenging paper that wasn't too difficult

AWFUL :'(

Got an A2 in my mocks but found that a lot harder than any past papers iv tried. Say I passed...barely

Managable :)

I said easy. im expecting 100% or close to it on that paper. i did honors for fifth year so thats partly why i find pass maths so easy.

ciano1 · 13-06-2010 12:39pm

AWFUL :'(

Got a B1 in the mocks and need a B3 for my course..
I really doubt I failed that paper but will really need to make up for it in project maths paper 2 tomorrow!

I don't think I failed but I was really annoyed and disappointed with how it went. Looking over the Qs again, there was several I know I got wrong and that some that I have never even see on any paper before...

QCs were defintely honours level. I'm slightly disapoointed since I done a year of honours that I will probably barely hit 60% in ordinary level.

OoOROiSiNOoO · 13-06-2010 1:08pm

Ok..ish :/

think i got around 70ish but i'm way weaker at paper 1 than paper 2.. i couldn't do the long division haha just went completely blank! and the part C of sequences and series.. usually do fine on them but i hadn't a clue!!! got all 8 q's done anyway

Peter03 · 13-06-2010 1:54pm

AWFUL :'(

I said ok-ish, I thought it was hard though but made an attempt at all the questions.
