OL Maths Paper's structure?

    I very recently dropped down to Ordinary Level Maths, but was too late to get my hands on actual papers so I'm just using the ones online as a guide. I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what the structure of both of the OL Maths papers will be (usually written on the first few pages of the Papers booklet?)

    (For example, last year I was doing honours, so the structure was:
    2011 HL Paper 1
    Question 1: Algebra
    Question 2: Algebra
    Question 3: Matrices, Complex No's, Roots of equations
    etc etc.)

    If there is a set structure to the OL papers, and only a certain possibility of topics for each question, could someone tell me what they are please?
    I have no idea what to study at the mo! :(

    Thanks for reading!

    Paper I
    Do 6 out of 8 - 50 marks each
    Q1 : Arithmetic (tax etc.)

    Q2, Q3 : Algebra

    Q4: Complex Numbers

    Q5: Sequences & Series

    Q6: Functions & Differentiation
    Q7: Differentiation
    Q8: Functions & Differentiation

    Paper 2 (this year )
    Do all questions

    Qs 1-5 worth 25 marks each
    Will include
    one on the line
    one on the circle
    one on theorems proof (choice between a & b)
    two on probability

    Questions 6 & 7 will be worth 125 marks total so prob 60+65
    Q6 Trigonometry
    Q7 Probability
    Q8 Area & Volume (Q1 from the old course) worth 50 marks

    project maths is supposed to get away from the predictability so the questions don't appear to be as defined as in PI
