Just keen for some thoughts.
« on: November 11, 2012, 08:08:08 pm »
I did the spesh exam one and I am fairly certain I stupidly dropped marks.

Here is what I did

Missed a solution in question 2 (cos(x)=0)
Forgot to multiply one term by 2 in the forces question
Finally did not simplify my answer to the very last question, i left it as 10(7)^0.5/32

How many marks could I lose?

Thanks.

At least 2 marks, possibly 3, I'm not sure if they'll deduct marks for unsimplified fractions.

I did the same errors as you! lolcats

For the last question, at first I didn't recognise that root 63 could be simplified, but then after I did, I forgot to simplify the 10/32 part.
