For math, the exams were a lot harder than most trials I did and while they were doable I just fell short on more areas than usual, but the other subjects have been rather fair personally, just not done as well as I usually do
I let the LHS and RHS be different functions then I differeniated both functions and showed that 5^x increases faster than 2^x
+ 3^x after x =1. Dunno if its worth full marks but it worked out for me.
