The 14 topics run from functions and quadratics through logarithms, trigonometry, series and vectors to calculus.
Where marks are lost
Marked work shows the same patterns year after year:
- ✓ Algebraic manipulation too slow for the non-calculator paper
- ✓ Logarithm laws misapplied
- ✓ Trigonometric identities and equations
- ✓ Calculus questions without full working
