I think there's a point where one ceases to benefit from exam 1's... agree or disagree?

Unless you're getting full marks every time, disagree.

Would you recommend that i only do exam 2's from now on?
On exam 1's 40/40 unless some silly mistake somewhere so then it goes down to 39 or 38
On exam 2's im getting only around 70/80. usually get stuck on 1-2 questions somewhere which will be -8 and then a few silly mistakes such as not simplifying, not rationalising.
I just like exam 1's cos they only take <30 min but don't really improve anything other than confidence

oh yea that too :D But sometimes insight can be challenging. Except this time round I found MAV to be tricky in some circumstances.

I agree, some of the calculus questions were time consuming.

I agree. Well, they weren't as hard as like NEAP, but they were harder than what u would have thought for MAV.
