fuk those 1 markers totally put me off. i thought 1 markers meant just questions with straight out one line answers.

*sigh* i did every little bit, all the differentiion and shit, and accidentally wrote (dl/dt)^2 in the formula instead of (dl/dt). Thus all my answers are out of whack fml ='( ANd its a formula so probably no carry forward *crawls into a ball and cries*

Re: holy fucking shit i might as well just die now.

Shitty 1 marker AND 2 markers GRRRR. Ironically the 3 markers were nicest because they actually deserved the marks. Not like the half a page for 1 markers >='(

Also, for cos^-1(-1/2), did anyone write the general solution? I was being a smartarse and wrote it, but now it seems so stupid, as arccos has restricted domain =\

A hard paper is better than an easy paper. Your marks will probably align to the same as they would have been anyway.

I thought it was okay.. already lost about 4-5 marks but on top of stupid mistakes, more to come!

A lot harder than I expected I think.

Also what was the total distance the particle travelled? And also what did everyone get as 'p'?
