I found it very difficult compared to the past years, been getting around 35/40 on practice exams. Doubt i even got 25 on that one :/

Hopefully the mean score is way lower than previous years to even things out.

There were two hard questions. The last one, that goes without saying and the one with the weighted die (which was tricky because you had to recognise that p could actually equal zero!)

if P=0 the probability of getting a head would be 0 and therefore the conditions of resolving an answer for P are not met... impossible

I doubt it, but I knew the stuff but completely messed it up

so ticked off that last question, i got part 1

and some how my brain stopped functioning

and screwed up the rest of the questions

I knew I sucked at shapes but wth, finding the length was so easy, worked it out at the bus stop fml

That was terrible... I left the last question pretty much completely blank..
I have been getting around 30 out of 40 for all my practice papers..
And now I'm expecting 15-25... Go consequential marks! c=
