    So Ive done LITERALLY nothing for maths. No book or nothing like , never did homework or any of that craic since JC.

    Got an A in Higher in the JC and just hated it after that, dropped to pass and just never focused on it.


    Do I risk failing? Can I pass with JC knowledge alone? :/ Paper 1 is tomorrow..

    You probably won't to be honest, there was no financial maths, differentiation, sequences and series with formulae on the JC, try getting a few of the past papers off examinations.ie, and anything you struggle with just google.

    Go over the calculus questions, they're literally subbing in from the log tables and are the easiest and guaranteed questions, same with the functions. Attempt everything, the marking scheme is giving marks for the smallest attempt.

    Which ones calculus again? :P
    I think I'm okay for P2 I'm just pretty bad at algebra and all.
    Attempt marks will do i'll hope!

    I did pass the mock but it was marked internally so dont trust it!
