Exam 1: For those of you who dropped marks on the CONE OF DEATH...

My Maths teacher said that he'd spoken to one of the exam writers over the weekend, and apparently people who did proper working through parts b and c of question 11 are mostly getting 3/5, consequential marks. This guy had marked ~40 papers when he told my teacher this, so provided you worked through parts b and c properly, you'll get the 3/5!  :)

Really? That's quite unusual, because there are answer marks and method marks, but would be good news to those who couldn't get part a).

So we can expect the cutoff to be the same as last year?
