2017 CSSA General Maths Discussion

Here's a space for you guys to discuss the 2017 CSSA General Maths Exam! Were the questions kind? Did you study the right things? How would you change your approach for the real thing in October?

Papers were required to be held until today (Thursday 17th) so we can now chat about the questions and the approaches we took. However, please do not share copies of the exam or anything similar!

I am about 99.99999% sure I failed!  :'( :'(
this is the first time i havnt even finished an exam...........halfway thru i thought I had loads of time, then I ended up leaving a 5 and 4 marks question.... :-[ :'(
i found it all really hard...but then again it's my hated subject (maths is compulsory at our school) and I didn't study much, esp with modern history on the same day which is my fav subject....so it's probbbbably my fault!
