Not sure, i think i dropped about 3 marks -> coz i think i might have messed up the volume to be 13032... :S

Worked out what I did wrong; I took the terminals from 20 to 40 instead of 0 to 20.

Oh well, there goes 50.

Don't worry, me too... :(

Think I'm now down to 77/80 as well.... So annoying!

Lol - its funny how all three of us are sitting on the same mark. I got the volume question wrong. For some reason, I got 12101 (exactly half the answer...). *Sigh*
Also, I HAVE NO IDEA HOW I stuffed up the distance question. Actually, come to think of it, I think I'm sitting on 76 right now. Likely deduct another 2-3 for other careless errors.
Oh wells - there goes 45 :P

I have no idea how I stuffed up the rates question... does anyone have the equation because I'm thinking I copied it down wrong...

And yeah, don't know MC so I'm just hoping I didn't stuff up any of those...

So annoying though, I was feeling good about it during reading time...

Although it does comfort me that you two are in the same boat :P

LOL sorry no I wasn't insulting you...I made the same mistake.

Don't worry. I've thought about it and I reckon there's one mark for rearranging for x^2, one mark for the integral but because the next part is separate...they might give the mark based on the integral you put above. Well...I'm hoping anyways. XD

a 49 isn't too bad =p 

48 actually or lower ahaha oh well


Haha we both know someone that got 48 and dropped 3 marks in exam 2 but that was in Methods ;)
BUT if this year's exam was exceptionally hard, it might be 48 or even 49!

No subject scales higher than 55. A 48 in Spesh would probably scale to 53.

My year was so bad... I think 50 only scaled to 53 or something. So sad.

v = 25 + x^2, x = 5 when t = 0, find t

I think
