Can, err, someone tell me what was so special about the circle geo?
The circle geometry question was laughable!

The above posts are talking about the angle of projection in the last question (which I didn't get >_>)

Where was the circle geo? I'm assuming it was really easy? How many marks and what did you have to do?

Circle Geo was in question 1... it was probably 2 marks I think. All it needed was to say - semi circle, therefore right angle. - cyclic quad, therefore opp angles and complementary i.e angle = 110.

Haha loved the circle geo question - did ANYONE get that wrong?

Overall, 36/84 - epic fail. But still 3rd in my class....hehe (out of 4)

Guess I'll start studying more now...:haha:

I ended up with pretty disappointing marks (which I'm very sure I can improve on by a lot, with just more time).

I ended up with 50/84 and we still have to check for marking errors.

pretty happy ended up with 62/84, could have been 66 if I learnt binomial differentiation before the test not after lol.

Yeah and time, always need more time, need to be quicker i guess
That's a decent mark :) I would have been happy with that for trials ...

Good luck with the externals now!

I got Q1,2, 5 and 7 back...still some parts missing.

12, 12, 12, 12 = 48/48 so far xD

I am praying for 83/84 (if not 84 lol) since I reckon I lost about 1 mark somewhere in Q4 - silly mistake >.<

haha probably not. I "think" I lost a mark in one question. My answer was little bit dodgy...-_-

But I appreciate your encouragement =)
