Do you know if many people failed?? I would be delighted if i got a D..

Everyone's so nervous and I thought I would be but at this stage I've gone through all the emotions regarding them and don't know how to feel. Bored? I just KNOW it's going to be an anti-climax after waiting for so long. :cool:

I dont maths was too bad ol, heard hl was horrible but can't speak about it, ol paper 1 was tricky no doubt, but p2 was as per usual tbh, but the A grades will be down no doubt about it

I was only looking at the papers could do bits of it, is it very geometry and probability based? Because there my poor sections. I left out all the geometry last year. And probability doesn't suit me at all. Like I was amazed the first q on a paper what's a prime number absolutely shocking. BRING BACK THE OLD COURSE !!

Just have to wait and see I suppose, but alot of people feel like that atm so your not on your own, maths will always be the same, you can keep changing the course but it's not helping students at all. Hope you passed:)
